RENEWAMERICA — As Americans await the most devastating years — still to come — of Barack Obama's presidency, many are resigned to what seems inevitable, bringing to mind the final lines of T.S. Elliot's poem The Hollow Men: "This is the way the world ends. This is the way the world ends. This is the way the world ends. Not with a bang but a whimper".... (more)

ALAN KEYES — World Vision U.S. has the wobbles. The famous evangelical charity has reversed its decision to ride the elitist tide on gay marriage. By coincidence, over the weekend I was completing work on what became a series of three articles for my blog. I wrote them in reaction to an article I read in which Focus on the Family's Tom Minnery reportedly "called on Christians to support candidates who can get elected, even if they are not perfect for the Christian community."...

WES VERNON, RA ANALYST — At last, someone has written one of the extremely rare well-balanced narratives about the history of America's railroads and the pioneer entrepreneurs who built them. The "steel wheels on steel rails" did encounter a messy launch as they went transcontinental in the late 19th century. It did not follow that their creators deserved the "robber baron" designation.... (more)

L. BRENT BOZELL III & TIM GRAHAM — Obamacare is a fiasco. Why don't the media acknowledge that? And it's fair to ask: why don't they ridicule it? After all, in the Bush years, the press re-ran President Bush in front of the "Mission Accomplished" banner time and again, did they not? Perhaps Joe Biden at the signing ceremony saying into an open mic that this was a "big [blanking] deal" would suffice.... (more)

KEN HAM — As a Creationist and also a believer in the historical account of Noah and the Flood, I agree with atheist Darren Aronofsky's statement about his just-released film "Noah": It is the "least biblical" of Bible-themed films. Any other agreement I have with the filmmaker's take on the book of Genesis and its account of Noah ends right there... (more)

WASHINGTON TIMES — Barack Obama is the celebrity president. Or was. When he assumed office, he got a Nobel Peace Prize and two Grammys for his trophy case, awarded for just being his wonderful self.

MARIELENA MONTESINO DE STUART — At one end of the red carpet stood Barack Obama, the most extreme pro-abortion president in U.S. history. At the other end stood Francis, the most... let us say, "progressive" and "enlightened" man ever elected to sit on the Throne of Peter. His delicate touch on issues such as abortion and homosexual "marriage" is legendary... (more)

MICHELLE MALKIN — Has Nancy Pelosi seen a newspaper lately? (Pro tip, hon: Like the Obamacare monstrosity, you have to read it to find out what's in it.)
