Year: 2013

Coming to the realization that insisting automatic weapons with high capacity magazines be available for sporting use wasn’t gaining much traction among the general public, gun rights advocates have shifted their rationale to argue that private ownership of such weapons is necessary to protect against a tyrannical government, either our own or from somewhere else […]

President Obama’s choice of Nevada to announce his all encompassing amnesty program is curious. Nevada’s 10.2 unemployment rate is the nation’s highest. Las Vegas, where Obama spoke, has a 10.4 percent unemployment rate. Nevada unemployment is so acute that more than four and a half years have passed since a single construction worker showed up […]

The media spin is that she has been an excellent Secretary of State. But it’s just spin. Look at the record: ???????Chavez now controls Argentina, Bolivia, Nicaragua, El Salvador and Ecuador as well as Venezuela. He is a big influence in Brazil. He is providing a base for Iran to move into the hemisphere. ??Russia […]

In Switzerland, it’s not just the clocks that are cuckoo. Over the past four years Swiss politicians and central bankers have gone on an unprecedented buying spree of foreign exchange reserves. In 2012, their cache swelled to as much as $420 billion worth of various currencies, primarily the euro. This figure is a seven-fold increase […]

The American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ), a Washington, DC based legal organization that focuses on constitutional law said it is extremely disappointed that the proposed rule change announced by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) concerning the mandate does not apply to all Americans.

Conservatives are always told they don’t do enough to reach across the aisle. We’re divisive, obstructionist and hostile to bipartisanship.

Now all I need are some principled Democratic ladies and liberal media lionesses […]

The Republicans are doomed. Conservatism is over. President Obama is conducting a mop-up operation at this point. That’s the basic consensus in places like New York City, Washington, D.C., and other citadels of blue America. And let’s be fair, liberals have every reason to gloat — a little. The GOP has its troubles. Long-term demographic […]

Many have rightly condemned MSNBC’s serpentine editing of a video to make it appear that certain gun rights activists heckled the father of a 6-year-old victim of the Sandy Hook shooting massacre, but let’s not pretend this was a one-off event. The liberal media long ago forfeited their respected role as watchdog over the government […]

Now that the economy is officially contracting, it’s a good time to look back and list the various Obama policies that are causing it. We do this not in the spirit of blame but rather to point to the corrective steps he needs to take to head off a new recession. After several quarters of […]

A bipartisan group of eight U.S. senators has proposed an immigration reform plan that appears to broadly reflect what voters would like to see. But there’s a catch. Most Americans (56 percent) want our nation to have a welcoming policy of legal immigration. With such an approach, the only people who would be excluded are […]
