June 26, 2009



Since Iran's controversial and disputed election, President Obama has been noticeably restrained in his reaction. He has flashed his empathy, saying on Tuesday that he was "appalled and outraged" by the regime's brutality, but he has been equally emphatic about not being perceived as meddling in Iran's internal… Continue

ObamaCare Isn't Inevitable By KARL ROVE June 25,2009

ObamaCare Isn't Inevitable

Americans are increasingly concerned about the cost -- in money and personal freedom -- of the president's nanny-state initiatives.

By KARL ROVE JUNE 25, 2009


While still good, President Barack Obama's political health is deteriorating, threatened by what he thought would be balm -- his ambitious plan for a government takeover of health care.

Mr. Obama remains slightly more popular than most presidents have been in their opening months. But… Continue

Endless Love

Friday, June 26, 2009

Huzzah! Thanks to a few pointed questions from the press corps at a White House news conference, the long Obama captivity of the media is at an end. The Hotline, an inside-the-Beltway tip sheet, proclaimed June 23 "The Day the Love Ended."

The New York Daily News' Michael Goodwin celebrates the press corps' ability to channel the mood of the country: "By peppering the President with forceful questions ... and by challenging… Continue

Don't Be Deceived

Bill O'Reilly

Saturday, June 27, 2009

It seems every day there is another example of media deception in America. With the Fourth of July approaching, it is well worth remembering why the Founding Fathers gave the press special privileges. They wanted journalists to report honestly, to give the folks accurate, unbiased information so they could make informed decisions about who should hold power. Many of the Founders, like Thomas Jefferson and John Adams, didn't… Continue

Friday, June 26, 2009


Here they go again -- our faithful representatives in Washington, that is. They're about to pass, without reading its 1,200-plus pages, an incredibly expensive and destructive cap and trade bill, which has little prayer of accomplishing what it sets out to accomplish but satisfies their urgent need to pay homage to their liberal ideology and secular humanist worldview.

Do you remember when Barack Obama was forced… Continue

Obama hints at amnesty for illegal immigrants

Phoenix Business Journal - by Mike Sunnucks Thursday, June 25, 2009



President Barack Obama stayed away from hot-button words in remarks Thursday on immigration reform, but hinted that his immigration push will include some kind of “amnesty” or “legal path” for illegal immigrants already in the U.S.



He also praised U.S. Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., who was at a White House meeting on the issue and has supported a legal path… Continue

HOW CAN THIS BE! TELL ME IT's NOT TRUE Barney the Underwriter Telling Fannie Mae to take more credit risk. Now there's an idea.

Barney the Underwriter

Telling Fannie Mae to take more credit risk. Now there's an idea.


Back when the housing mania was taking off, Massachusetts Congressman Barney Frank famously said he wanted Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to "roll the dice" in the name of affordable housing. That didn't turn out so well, but Mr. Frank has since only accumulated more power. And now he is returning to the scene of the calamity -- with your money. He and New York Representative Anthony Weiner… Continue

'No Comment' Is Not an Option

By Paul Wolfowitz

Friday, June 19, 2009


President Obama's first response to the protests in Iran was silence, followed by a cautious, almost neutral stance designed to avoid "meddling" in Iranian affairs. I am reminded of Ronald Reagan's initially neutral response to the crisis following the Philippine election of 1986, and of George H.W. Bush's initially neutral response to the attempted coup against Mikhail Gorbachev in 1991. Both Reagan and… Continue

After Global Warming

By Larrey Anderson June 24, 2009




Science and ideology don't mix. They never have and they never will. The house of cards that is the science behind "climate change" is collapsing at exactly the same time it is being imposed by the Obama administration and Congress as an ideological "truth." America is facing the perfect storm of an imploding scientific theory that will be enforced by the rule of law.

Make no mistake: the big bad wolf of truth is… Continue

Equality or Pay-back?

Thomas Sowell

Tuesday, June 16, 2009

Back when I was on the receiving end of racial discrimination, it was to me not simply a personal misfortune, or even the misfortune of a race, it was a moral outrage. But not everyone who went through such an experience sees it that way.

When it comes to subjecting other people to the same treatment in a later era, some have no real problem with that. They see it as pay-back.

One of the many problems of the… Continue

What It Sounds Like When the Leader of the Free World Speaks

Lorie Byrd

Tuesday, June 23, 2009


President Obama has spent much of the past six months talking about all the things he inherited from George Bush. Unfortunately there are a lot of things he did not inherit from Bush, among them how to be the leader of the free world. The uprising in Iran has revealed Obama’s lack of leadership, but even worse, an apparent weakness when it comes to speaking up for freedom for… Continue

Saturday, June 20, 2009


That was some firestorm David Letterman found himself confronting, wasn't it? Do you think the comedian had any idea his jokes mocking Gov. Sarah Palin and her family would lead to such condemnation? I don't.

What Letterman and his writers failed to see is the growing anger in America over personal attacks leveled against public people. The issue is primarily about partisan insults. Many now consider Letterman a… Continue

Hope and Change -- but Not for Iran

By Charles Krauthammer

Friday, June 19, 2009


Millions of Iranians take to the streets to defy a theocratic dictatorship that, among its other finer qualities, is a self-declared enemy of America and the tolerance and liberties it represents. The demonstrators are fighting on their own, but they await just a word that America is on their side.

And what do they hear from the president of the United States? Silence. Then, worse. Three… Continue

Logic in the Age of Obama.June 18, 2009





By Victor Davis Hanson

Are you confused by all that has changed since Pres. Barack Obama took office in January? If so, you’re not alone. Perhaps, though, this handy guide to Age of Obama “logic” might be of some assistance.



1. The Budget. Wanting to cut $17 billion from the budget, as President Obama has promised, is proof of financial responsibility. Borrowing $1.84 trillion this year for new programs is… Continue

Making Sense of Stimulus Spending

June 16, 2009

How accurate is Obama's claim of 150,000 jobs "saved or created"?

Summary

With the economy continuing to shed hundreds of thousands of jobs per month, Republicans are stepping up attacks on President Obama. They claim that the massive "stimulus" spending isn't working very well.




A Republican Party Web site classifies as "fiction" the president's repeated claim that the spending already has "saved or created" a… Continue

Great article by Thomas Joscelyn—Spinning Zubaydah

Spinning Zubaydah



Today, the Washington Post has yet another piece claiming that Abu Zubaydah, a top al Qaeda terrorist captured in March 2002, was not really all that important. I say “yet another piece” because this is just the latest article in a long string of reporting by various outlets, including the Post, making the same argument: Abu Zubaydah was not really a high-level al Qaeda member and the Bush administration hyped his importance when he was captured in March… Continue

Obama’s Choice Is Not to Choose on Iran

Maybe the president could lift a finger for democracy?



By Jonah Goldberg June 17, 2009

Do it, President Obama, please. Take the side of democracy.



Declare yourself and your nation on the side of hope and change where it is more than a slogan and better than a rationalization for ever-bigger government. Stop measuring the success of your diplomacy with Iran by the degree to which the grinning, hate-filled stooge of a… Continue
