Today's Top Story (http://paracom.paramountcommunication.com/ct/2327605:2685881300:m:4:117544335:F5C1773B91E266443B0F A38A1BD14888) (http://paracom.paramountcommunication.com/ct/2327605:2685881300:m:4:117544335:F5C1773B91E266443B0FA38A1BD14888) _EXCLUSIVE: Interview with David Freddoso_ (http://paracom.paramountcommunication.com/ct/2327605:2685881300:m:4:117544335:F5C1773B91E266443B0FA38A1BD14888) , Author of 'The Case Against Barack Obama' By Michelle Oddis Michelle Oddis: Dave, you're a reporter, not a columnist. You've worked very hard to dig into the Obama story. You've said that you started reporting on Barack Obama in 2004. After all this research, what do you think is the most important thing people should know about Sen. Obama? David Freddoso: The main lesson is that Barack Obama's record, throughout his career, demonstrates conclusively that he has never been a reformer, that this image of "change and hope" that he projects is really a great lie. In fact there's never been a single time in Senator Obama's political career where he did something that was difficult and would cost him politically for the sake of needed reforms and change. _Read the Full Story Here_ (http://paracom.paramountc ommunication.com/ct/2327605:2685881300:m:4:117544335:F5C1773B91E266443B0FA38A1BD14888) (Continued Below) Sponsored Content (http://paracom.paramountcommunication.com/ct/2327606:2685881300:m:4:117544335:F5C1773B91E266443B0FA38A1BD14888) A Stock Tip from... Ann Coulter? Do you know which special interest has given more money to the Obama and Clinton campaigns than any other? If you guessed "trial lawyers" -- well, okay, that's too easy. But can you guess which special interest came in second? Labor unions? Nope. The Green Lobby? Nope. AARP? Wrong, again. NEA? Nyet. Give up? Okay, here's the answer... _Read the rest of Ann's letter here_ (http://paracom.paramountcommunication.com/ct/2327606:2685881300:m:4:117544335:F5C1773B91E266443B0FA38A1BD14888) This Week's Top Human Events Articles (http://paracom.paramountcommunication.com/ct/2327607:2685881300:m:4:117544335:F5C1773B91E266443B0FA38A1BD14888) 5. _What's the Difference Between the Government and the Mob?_ (http://paracom.paramountcommunication.com/ct/2327607:2685881300:m:4:117544335:F5C1773B91E26 6443B0FA38A1BD14888) by Erick Erickson A law school professor of mine once said the only major difference between the government and the mafia is that the government calls its bill collector the "IRS" and the mafia calls its bill collector "Big Louie." While an exaggeration to make a rhetorical point, if the Senate dips below 41 Republican Senators this year, there will be one other difference between the government and mafia that goes out the window. _Read the Full Story Here_ (http://paracom.paramountcommunication.com/ct/2327607:2685881300:m:4:117544335:F5C1773B91E266443B0FA38A1BD14888) (http://paracom.paramountcommunication.com/ct/2327608:2685881300:m:4:117544335:F5C1773B91E266443B0FA38A1BD14888) 4. _Pakistan, Iran and Bush's Last Months_ (http://paracom.paramountcommunication.com/ct/2327608:2685881300:m:4:117544335:F5C1773B91E266443B0FA38A1BD14888) by Jed Babbin For the next 169 days, George W. Bush will be President of the United States. For ninety-one of those days, our attention will be focused more on the contest to succeed him than on what Bush can and should do in his remaining days in office. _Read the Full Story Here_ (http://paracom.paramountcommunication.com/ct/2327608:2685881300:m:4:117544335:F5C1773B91E266443B0FA38A1BD14888) (http://paracom.paramountcommunication.com/ct/2327609:2685881300:m:4:117544335:F5C1773B91E266443B0FA38A1BD14888) 3. _Obama Watch: A Ludicrous Double Standard_ (http://paracom.paramountcommunication.com/ct/2327609:2685881300:m:4:117544335:F5C1773B91E266443B0FA38A1BD148 88) by Lisa De Pasquale Every time a right-winger like Ann Coulter or Rush Limbaugh offends the sensibilities of the Left, they demand that Republican presidential candidates and party leaders denounce the joke and the person -- and, unfortunately, they do. It was reported last week that rapper Ludacris's new song "Politics As Usual" insults President Bush, Senator Hillary Clinton and John McCain. The Associated Press wrote, "The song brags about an Obama presidency being destiny. It uses an expletive to describe Clinton, calls Bush 'mentally handicapped' and says McCain doesn't belong in 'any chair unless he's paralyzed.'" _Read the Full Story Here_ (http://paracom.paramountcommunication.com/ct/2327609:2685881300:m:4:117544335:F5C1773B91E266443B0FA38A1BD14888) (Continued Below) Sponsored Content (http://paracom.paramountcommunication.com/ct/2327614:2685881300:m:4:117544335:F5C1773B91E266443B0FA38A1BD14888) 2. _Gauging Obama's Energy Policy_ (http://paracom.paramountcommunication.com/ct/2327614:2685881300:m:4:117544335:F5C1773B91E266443B0FA38A1BD14888) by A.W.R. Hawkins Barack Obama recently announced that if elected President, he would implement a "windfall profits tax" on oil companies to force them to "contribute a reasonable share" of their profits to American families burdened by high energy costs. The money would come to families via rebates, or "stimulus checks," from the federal government. And while he was obviously proud of his big idea, Obama did not bother mentioning that the Democrat practice of putting socialism first, the environment second, and the American people third, is what brought us to the brink we now face over energy costs in the first place. He also remains mute on the fact that the rebates really aren't rebates at all, and will result in higher prices at the pump once they are issued. _Read the Full Story Here_ (http://paracom.paramountcommunication.com/ct/2327614:2685881300:m:4:117544335:F5C1773B91E266443B0FA38A1BD14888) (http://paracom.paramountcommunication.com/ct/2327615:2685881300:m:4:117544335:F5C1773B91E266443B0FA38A1BD14888) 1. _Don't Buy Le Tanker_ (http://paracom.paramountcommunication.com/ct/2327615:2685881300:m:4:117544335:F5C1773B91E266443B0FA38A1BD14888) by Bay Buchanan The debate over whether America's Boeing or Europe's Airbus should be given the contract to build America's next generation of mid-air refueling tankers has focused on several important topics, including the embarrassing flaws a recent General Accountability Office report found in the Air Force procurement process, the reshuffling of Pentagon jobs in its wake, and the suitability of both aircraft for the mission, chronicled in an excellent series in HUMAN EVENTS. _Read the Full Story Here_ (http://paracom.paramountcommunication.com/ct/2327615:2685881300:m:4:117544335:F5C1773B91E266443B0FA38A1BD14888) Join us every day next week for articles by Ann Coulter, Karl Rove, Dick Morris, Mark Levin, Michael Reagan, David Limbaugh and many more as well as a special one-on-one interview with Rush only here on _HUMAN EVENTS_ (http://paracom.paramountcommunication.com/ct/2327604:2685881300:m:4:117544335:F5C1773B91E2 66443B0FA38A1BD14888) .
