- " FBI 'Would Not Have Hired' Someone with Obama's Past Associations
Recently, FSM sat down with Buck Revell, former Associate Deputy Director of the FBI who was in charge of all FBI operations before his retirement in 1994. What he has to say about the idea of a security clearance for Barack Obama, a man who could be our next president, is stunning and sobering, to say the least. FSM: It has been said that Sen. Obama would not be able to get a security clearance now if he applied for one because of the many relationships he has had in the past, and now, with people like Khalid al-Mansour and Bill Ayers. Is that true? Full story here A very important read before you head to the polls November 4.
- Exclusive: Are Cyber Terrorists Pulling the Last Straw Out of the Worlda s Economy?
By Mark and Renee Taylor With uncharacteristic speed, Congress passed, and President Bush signed, the now infamous "bail out bill" on October 3rd. Following urgent, yet unsuccessful, pleas to the American people to back the bill, it flew through House and Senate before many Americans had time to distinguish who was at fault, Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae. It was a national economic crisis - created by banks making bad loans, inflated values and enormous bonuses for CEOs. Or was that the full story? It was only days before the economic crises went from a national issue to a "global" one. Full article here

- In the War Against Radical Islam, Defeat Cannot be Justified. American Truckers At War
It has been seven years since our nation was viciously attacked by radical Islamic extremists on September 11, 2001. It was on that morning my wife, Renee, and I were traveling through Utah, American truckers delivering a load of Christmas hams to a distributor in Medford, Oregon. In an instant, as we listened as the horror unfolded on the radio, our lives changed forever. Desperately searching a safe spot to pull my rig over in order to raise the satellite TV dish, the reality began to sink in - we were a nation at war. The World Trade Center, filled with unsuspecting men and women, went down in flames.Our American first responders in New York, Washington DC and Pennsylvania reacted to the horror with professionalism. Faced with a disaster never before seen on American soil, they looked death in the eye with courage. They rushed those burning buildings, a real hell on Earth, to save as many innocent men, women and children as could be saved. Many of these first responders lost their lives. To all who served our nation at the onset of this War on Terror - the firemen, policemen and other first responders and their survivors, we sincerely thank you for your service and courage.

- Exclusive: Indoctrination in Public Schools Leads to Rise in Home Schooling
It's that time of year again as parents scramble to pick up the necessary supplies to send with their children as they are bussed off to the public school (I call them government indoctrination centers) across town. Unlike years ago, when our parents sent us to school with a notebook for each class, a couple of pencils and our lunch money, today's child will lug clear or mesh backpacks filled with such necessities as liquid anti-bacterial hand soap, boxes of baby wipes and, in the case of Hermitage Elementary School in Hermitage, Arkansas, their first graders will supply two rolls of paper towels and a 50 count pack of clear sheet protectors each. The lists this year at our local schools here in Arkansas for each student include a wide variety of products necessary for your child to complete his or her school work. I have not quite understood the need for a kindergarten boy to provide a box of gallon Ziploc bags or a kindergarten girl to provide a box of pint sized Ziploc bags (brand names only, please) or a second grade boy to provide a package of construction paper while second grade girls provide a pack of white computer paper. Then again, in my "old fashioned" view of preparing for school, I cannot fathom why each first grade child must provide a package of red ink pens. Perhaps we parents are supplying the school system with supplies for all - communal property to be used by those who supply and those who do not (aka Communism/Marxism)? Eastside Elementary School in Warren, Arkansas, has the issue under control. For a fee of $17, their third graders will be provided with a "packet of supplies" from the school store, obviously to ensure each child's supplies are identical. We cannot have one child with a blue pencil while another child has a boring, cheaper yellow one, now can we? The directive has been given, right down to what color notebook your child can own.
