    Our Government is Oblivious to Invasion0

    Recently while driving from town to my house, I was running through some radio stations when I landed on the Glenn Beck show.

    It’s Time to Focus on the Enemy Within, Not Without0

    The reincarnation of Hitler in some national leader and the heroism of Churchill, both stand-by props of neoconservatives, rear their head again in a recent commentary by Daniel Gelernter.
