She questioned what we could do as we know very little about Kim Jong Un despite AQ Khan's contention that nothing will happen. She noted that it's a sign of the US as a declining power and Obama's lack of engagement on the issue.
Ingraham defended Fox News Jana Winter's right to protect her sources on her story on Aurora shooter James Holmes. She stated that if this had been the elite media, there would have been great interest and defense of Winter.

China's new leader Xi Jinping's PR team is hoping his chanteuse wife Peng Liyuan will be the next Michelle Obama to hit the international stage to uplift China's global image.
All of this of course is no accident. Part of the Xi "China Dream Team" is the promotion of a first lady, something (if the Chinese blogosphere is to be believed) many Chinese have been waiting for after years of being fascinated with foreign first ladies from Michelle Obama to Carla Bruni to Cherie Blair. Going back of course, there's still a fascination among some with Jackie O., while, back in 1972, Pat Nixon intrigued the Chinese by wearing a rather scandalous red coat (her advisers told her the Chinese associated red with prostitutes) and accompanying her husband on tours of communes and schools. Obviously Peng Liyuan knows how to draw attention too, arriving with her husband in Tanzania on his recent swing through Africa in a well-tailored peach dress suit and with another luxurious leather, but again unbranded, handbag.

The "Ingraham Angle" on "The O'Reilly Factor" with Laura Ingraham focused on the war on religion by secular progressives - this time on Easter.
Ingraham and O'Reilly discussed the issue. Ingraham said there isn't opposition to these trends because religious people feel a new intolerance against religion that makes people fearful.
Ingraham discussed the attacks on religious freedom as well and noted that we were never promised a rose garden. She said we need to spread the good word. O'Reilly stated that there is no outstanding Christian leader on the scene today. O'Reilly said it is an insult to Christians and noted that the Easter Bunny has no relation to Christ's Resurrection. Ingraham warned that the US could go the way of Europe that is failing at this time.
Apparently the secularists haven't noticed the high ratings of "The Bible" this Easter season - they do love money!

The chauvinist communist pigs of North Korea's military spoke of the venemous swish of skirt of South Korea's President Park.
Park has kept her cool while these fools mouth off.
But despite that swipe, and a continuing torrent of rhetoric from Pyongyang threatening nuclear war and other mayhem, President Park Geun-hye is sticking by her campaign vow to reach out to North Korea's young leader, Kim Jong Un, and to send the country much-needed humanitarian aid.

Laura Ingraham appeared on "Fox and Friends" on March 12th.
Ingraham said it's all well and good that the politicians are talking in DC, but taht they now have to do the heavy lifting to cut a deal that can appeal to the various factions. Ingraham said that the Democrats' goal is to redistribute resources and not to balance the budget or stimulate growth.
Ingraham noted that there is still negative reaction to some aspects of Obamacare and while it would be difficult to overturn it, it is a point for leverage.
Ingraham commented on the White House and other federal staffers who haven't paid their taxes in years to the tune of billions of dollars. She stated that this is why people are so skeptical and disgusted with Washington. She cited former Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner who didn't pay some of his taxes.

Dain said left wing groups blur the differences between passionate and hate groups.
Ingraham talked to Alexandra Brodsky and Gloria Malone about ads critical of teen pregnancy. Malone is a teen mother and feels stigmatized and shamed by the ads.
