Eric Holder Blowing Smoke About K.S.M. and the Death Penalty — Bryan Fischer
By Bryan Fischer Eric Holder wants us to believe that he supports a civilian trial for Khalid Sheikh Mohammed because he’s so gung-ho for the death penalty.

Why Wait for Facts, Israel’s Guilty — T.F. Stern

…Because Somebody Talked! — T.F. Stern
