Senator Judd Gregg-R, “played a central role in crafting and passing the Troubled Asset Relief Program,” then he made a killing. – AEI

The IRS scandal, which again played out on TV today, is an excellent opportunity to kick off “Truth Week” and expose progressivism in every dark corner for the despotic false promise it is. I, myself, would happily give up my vote for Senator in order to return to the original federalist design before the ratification of the Seventeenth Amendment, and you will too by the time you are done reading this article.

Why am I not surprised? Normally, I would conclude that this is nothing more than an overblown book launch, but I am familiar with Ed Klein and even more importantly, I know some of the earlier claims to be true. Thus, it does not surprise me in the least to hear the revelation that Obama and Bill Clinton struck a deal, which included Bill Clinton saving Obama from election defeat and Obama making a promise that he did not intend to keep.

For millions of Americans, it does not feel like it, but the month of June marked the official end to the financial crisis induced “Great Recession.” Although the media may not have conveyed it to the American people, the National Bureau of Economic Research called an end to the recession before Barack Obama ever stepped in office, and it appeared that the economy would recover.

Christians Targeted in Deadly Egypt Blast
A car exploded last November in front of a Coptic Christian church in Alexandria, Egypt, as worshipers emerge from a New Year’s Mass, killing more than 20 people and prompting a clash with Muslims at a nearby mosque.

Tolerance seems to be a one way street when 100,000 Christians are killed annually because of their faith, according to the Vatican reports. Human rights groups claim that anti-Christian violence is on the rise in muslim countries like Pakistan, Nigeria and Egypt. Vatican spokesman, Monsieur Silvano Maria Tomassi, said Tuesday in a radio address to the United Nations Human Rights Council:
