The HRC crisis is not a tempest in a teapot. Stanley Kurtz, senior fellow at the Washington-based Ethics and Public Policy Center, says: "I don't think it's too strong to say that the [HRC] complaint against Mark Steyn is a totalitarian document."It is therefore no exaggeration to say that Levant and Steyn are fighting for the defining ideal of Western civilization which, once lost, would...

By Stanley Kurtz, NRO: Having now left Trinity United Church of Christ, can Barack Obama escape responsibility for his decades-long ties to Michael Pfleger and Jeremiah Wright? No, he cannot. Obama’s connections to the radical-left politics espoused by Pfleger and Wright are broad and deep. The real reason Obama bound himself to Wright and Pfleger in the first place is that he largely...

One aspect of Barack's campaign that's been under-scrutinized and underreported upon are his ties to ACORN -- a group which, as Stanley Kurtz points out in his must-read piece, is every bit as radical as MoveOn.org or...

There's more: Denmark introduced gay marriage in 1989 and went on to win the European Championship in 1992 - surely (football fans around the world would agree) an impossible event. I'm surprised Stanley Kurtz hasn't noticed the correlation. Clearly marriage...

By STANLEY KURTZ By this point, nobody can seriously suggest that Barack Obama was unaware of the hate-filled rhetoric emanating from the pulpit at Trinity United Church of Christ until it was, very recently, pointed out to him. The church’s long history of radical-leftist and anti-white sermons by Jeremiah Wright, Michael Pfleger, and others [...]

For example, back on June 2, National Review Online ran an extraordinary article by Stanley Kurtz that closely assessed a 1995 article about Obama by Hank De Zutter titled "What Makes Obama Run?" The essence of his thesis is the following: "De Zutter's article shows us that the full story of Obama's ties to Pfleger and Wright is both more disturbing and more politically...

Don't miss Bruce Bawer's Pajamas Media piece on Vaclav Havel . I knew a little about ACORN, and how the group was busted for election chicanery in 2004, but before reading Stanley Kurtz' article on the group, I had no grasp of their far-left radical ideology, nor of their very close association with Barack Obama. John McWhorter says the nomination of Obama demonstrates "Racism in Retreat"...

Its a long piece and you need to read it all, but the nut of his argument is that while Obama can claim the church doesn’t represent him or his views and disavow his association with it, a look...
