Dear America: Eric Snowden Is No Hero
Eric Snowden is no American Hero, nor is he a whistleblower. He’s a criminal. STORY: NSA Whistle Blower Comes Forward Let me explain why. After every major terrorist attack on American soil, whether domestic or international, many Americans ask one fundamental question: How could something like this have happened? It’s a fair question and any reasonable person would ask it.

Who was in charge, did anyone know that we were…

I came to the United States at the age of 5, with a green card and on an airplane, into the arms of family members who were already “assimilated” to an American culture.

Those relatives arrived at a time when the term “melting pot” was used to represent the American way of life. You came here to leave everything behind…

Last week, he let it slip that at times, he feels like “going Bulworth” Bulworth is a movie about a fictional president who after winning, starts telling the truth, and saying what he wants. As explained greatly by the co-writer of Bulworth, Obama is a kept figure by the powers that be, and will never do such a thing. However, there is one group of people that the President never fails to unload on. That group…
