Our Philosopher-King Obama

Victor Davis Hanson

Thursday, January 21, 2010





In Plato's ideal society, philosopher kings and elite Guardians shepherded the rabble to force them to do the "right" thing.

To prevent the unwashed from doing anything stupid, the all-powerful, all-wise Guardians often had to tell a few "noble" lies. And, of course, these caretakers themselves were exempt from most rules they made for others.

We are now seeing such thinking in the… Continue

THOMAS SOWELL

JANUARY 26, 2010 .

Great Scott!

If politicians can’t do anything else right, they can count votes.



Some of the most melancholy letters and e-mails that are sent to me are from people who lament that there is nothing they can do about the bad policies that they see ruining this country. They don’t have any media outlet for their opinions, and the letters they send to their congressmen either are ignored or are answered by form letters with weasel… Continue

How Republicans Can Win the Black Vote

Certainly not with the same old tactic of impersonating Democrats.

By Thomas Sowell



If the Republicans think that they are simply “due” to start winning elections, perhaps buoyed by the recent polls showing that the public is turning against Democrats in general and the Obama administration in particular, then they may neglect to do the things they need to do if they are to turn their hopes into realities.

What the GOP Needs

To win in 2010, Republicans will have to do their homework.

By Thomas Sowell January 20, 2010



Some people say that there is no real difference between Republicans and Democrats. Whether that is said because of being too lazy to examine the differences or because it makes some people feel exalted to say, in effect, “a plague on both your houses,” it is a dangerous self-indulgence.

When Republicans were in power, they acted too much like… Continue

A Black-on-Black Discussion of Black Racism

By Lloyd Marcus January 16, 2010



This topic may infuriate many of my fellow blacks. I am talking about black monolithic thinking and black racism.

Black actor Michael Clarke Duncan is probably best known for his brilliant performance in the movie The Green Mile. I watched a Steve Harvey special on BET (Black Entertainment Television). Harvey was on stage in a hall filled with a mostly black audience. He criticized Duncan… Continue

Martha Coakley: a Politician of the Worst Sort

By Michelle Malkin | 01/13/10



Democrat Martha Coakley is the voice of the “little people” the way Ted Kennedy was the voice of sobriety. If Massachusetts voters want another privileged liberal who talks a good “social justice” game while ignoring public corruption, pocketing gobs of money from Beltway fat cats and pandering to corporate special interests, Coakley’s the one.

Coakley, the Bay State’s attorney general, has… Continue

Understanding the Democrats' Scheme

By John F. Gaski January 09, 2010



Poor Bill O'Reilly and Brit Hume. There they were on the O'Reilly show a few weeks ago, puzzling over why Barack Obama and the Democrats are doing so many things that are damaging to our country. Bill and Brit agreed that they couldn't possibly be harming the nation intentionally, because negative voter reaction would redound to them politically and electorally. Can't the Democrats see this? Did they… Continue
