The face of leadership
By Tom Quiner Carly Fiorina is class. Donald Trump isn’t. Mr. Trump generally proves it every time he opens his mouth. He drew particular attention to his boorishness by mocking Carly Fiorina’s appearance last week. Ms. Fiorina struck back with a zinger of an ad, which I’ve posted above. Way to go, Carly! Great ad.…

Christianity thrives on martyrdom. When Caesar threw a Christian Church Father, Polycarp, into the arena around 100 A.D., all he demanded of the priest was to proclaim, “Caesar is Lord.”
Instead, Polycarp responded:
“Eighty-six years I have served Christ, and He never did me any wrong. How can I blaspheme my King who saved me?”
And the state killed him.
Things never change, do they?

Barack Obama infamously dismissed ISIS as the ‘jayvee team.’
This is the same jayvee team that has commandeered a big chunk of Iraq.
This is the same jayvee team that has raped, beheaded, and mutilated thousands of innocents, regardless of age.
This is the same jayvee team that is scrubbing the Mideast of any vestige of Christianity.
So how are things going against these “punks?” Swimmingly, if you listen to the president’s men. Terrible, if you listen to the guys on the ground.…
