It’s considered big news that the United States and China are forging “stronger economic ties.” The real news is that the United States even has the time of day for China. If America were still a free and prosperous nation, one respectful of...

What would it take for you to commit mass murder in the name of Allah? Would you do it for money? For love? Out of a sense of justice? Out of a sense of religious duty? Absurd as they may seem, these are serious questions, for as jihad mass-murder plots are...

The shooting of Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords, though a terrible tragedy, is not of historic significance. More significant is the efforts of the Left to blame this on the Right, particularly the Tea Party movement. The absurdity of these attempts is obvious, and...

For most people, a tragedy is a time to reflect. For a politician, especially one who has been given uncritical positive regard for all of his short career — including his unearned rise to the Presidency of the United States — Barack Obama has used a...

Throughout social media, the left is really blowing the dog whistle on the Tea Party movement, from blaming opportunist Sarah Palin , whose Tea Party credentials are dubious, to status updates, comments, and this San Francisco Chronicle editorial posted by the...

It’s widely held that the Arizona shootings, involving the murder of a judge and serious injury of a Congresswoman, are to the benefit of the Tea Party and other opponents of Obama’s Big Government policies. Case in point: Paul Krugman, the socialist...

You can always find people willing to exploit a crisis. Consider Pima County AZ Sheriff Clarence Dupnik, who interpreted the recent shooting of a Congresswoman, federal judge and others in his state as follows: “When you look at unbalanced people, how they...

Sam Harris recently published an article in The Huffington Post entitled "A New Year's Resolution for the Rich" in it, he says: "…devotees of self-reliance rail against those who would receive entitlements of various sorts — health...

The thing about liberal socialists, or anybody who’s wrong, is that they hate dissension. Dissension reminds them that there are such things as reason, facts and logic. Case in point: Barack Obama. He recently stated, “What we can’t do is refight the...

The Left “explains” the Right’s attachment to its ideas as being due to stupidity. The Right “explains” the Left’s attachment to its ideas as being due to personal evil. Example of Leftist “explanations” of the Right: at...

First Lady Michelle Obama is encouraging Americans to feed their children a diet with fewer sweets to help combat obesity. On her reality show, “Sarah Palin’s Alaska,” Palin, while she put together the ingredients for s’mores, said, “This...

While temporarily buried under the Christmas cheer and holiday mood, Reuters recently published a story concerning the growing turmoil on the Korean peninsula. On top of threats to wage a “sacred war” against the South, Pyongyang hints at the possibility...

Q: A lot of my friends and I are nearing retirement or seeking new horizons.  When we talk about new careers or jobs, we all come to the same conclusion: “I’m not qualified for the jobs I’m interested in, and I’m not interested in the jobs...

Advocates of the new Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (START) want America to reduce its nuclear capabilities in exchange for Russia ‘s word that it will do likewise. Does this make sense? Russia, throughout its history, has been an authoritarian...

Fox News reported: “As New York City finishes cleaning up the mess of the recent debilitating blizzard, it also faces allegations that union workers entrusted with cleaning up the mess of snow decided to stage a slowdown as the blizzard hit. The plan was to...

Here we go again. This week, Paul Krugman, the 2008 Nobel Prize winner in economics and the go-to guy for progressives who need a morale boost, launched another misguided attack on Austrian School economists. From his New York Times soapbox, he referred to the...

Do not let the Bush tax cuts fool you, it was an anomaly in an administration filled with big government statist policies. Regulations, redistribution of wealth, the Obama presidency, and a whole host of collectivist policies are what Pres. Bush’s real economic legacy is all about.

I copied down what some clown on TV said about our debt to China: “Someone in Beijing is laughing as the U.S. goes deeper into debt to pay for the tax cut.” Where to begin? Well, the following is basically the order in which I hurriedly wrote down my...
