The fund-raising strategy marks a shift from Mr Obama's 2009 inauguration, when he banned corporate money and limited individual contributions to showcase his commitment to transparency and clean government. 
 This time around, organisers are soliciting bigger donations to pay for a party that will lack the historic aura of 2009, when Mr Obama became the nation's first black president. President Barack Obam ...

Congressman Jason Chaffetz (R- UT) told Breitbart News on Wednesday that he has been “thwarted” by the State Department from seeing any Americans who survived the deadly attack on the U.S. diplomatic mission in  Benghazi. Many people forget that there were Americans who survived the Benghazi attack, some of whom were badly injured and are still recovering. “My understanding is that we still have some people ...

After election day most of us heard that Prop 37, the initiative to label GMO foods failed to gather enough support to get a majority vote at the ballot box, and after that it more or less disappeared from the news altogether. However, this announcement was made prematurely and all of the votes were never actually counted.  Now, as the Dec 14 deadline for the turn in of the votes approaches, more evidence o ...

In what he called “my last election,” President Barack Obama scored a hard-fought but comfortable victory over Mitt Romney last month, but that doesn’t mean his email list will no longer be hit up for campaign cash. To wit, Mr. Obama’s electoral operation, Obama for America, is asking their supporters to contribute after filling outa form backing his plan to increase taxes on the wealthiest Americans. “Than ...

You’ve re-elected liar-in-chief Obama for another term as your US President. Let’s celebrate this insanity by looking at some of the blatant lies he has told you.   Obama Lie #1 “If we have not gotten our troops out by the time I am president, it is the first thing I will do.  I will get our troops home, we will end this war.  You can take that to the bank.” Obama Lie #2 In Obama’s campaign, he promise ...

The former candidate, whose motorcade during the campaign could shut down streets and stretch entire city blocks, arrived at a side entrance of the executive mansion in a single black Lincoln SUV. He sat in the fr ...

The Justice Department has a big decision to make. Parts of new laws in Colorado and Washington that legalize small amounts of recreational marijuana will take effect early next month. The Obama administration needs to choose whether it will sue to stop the legislation or let those states go their own way — even though the drug remains illegal under federal law. Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper, a Democrat, ...

The one party system at work…. The sounds of jaws dropping and hitting the floor across the country was never more audible than when the Republican party along with the talking potato heads at Faux News began promoting amnesty for 11 million immigrants who have entered the country illegally.  The post election flip-flop was predictable.  Rather than admit they canned a sure fire winner with Ron Paul in exch ...

Unless Facebook users fight back, the days of the social network's experiment with democracy may soon come to an end. The company on Wednesday proposed to take away its users' right to vote on major issues concerning the governance of its 1 billion-member online network.
