Illiberal approach to immigration only invites more acrimony

A federal judge has temporarily blocked President Obama’s executive order that overrode existing immigration law. The result is more acrimony and chaos. It is a good time to remember that there are more than just two types of immigration — legal and illegal. There also exist liberal and illiberal approaches to immigration. Take liberal immigration. […]

 

Hollywood Hypocrites Demand ‘Wage Equality’

When actress Patricia Arquette won an Oscar, she pled for “wage equality” for women: “To every woman who gave birth to every taxpayer and citizen in this nation: We have fought for everybody else’s equal rights. It’s our time to have wage equality once and for all and equal rights for women in the United […]

 

Cold weather brings out the stupid in TV, and sometimes in kids

If there’s one thing more stupid than Chicagoans whining about the cold (as if they’ve never experienced February in the city by the lake), it’s another one of those stupid weather stories. And stupid weather stories — the kind that demean TV reporters and involve frozen T-shirts and bubbles — are most likely dreamed up […]

 

The War on Drugs, San Francisco-Style

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve had out-of-towners tell me they think San Francisco is a breathtakingly beautiful city — so why is it that City Hall hasn’t done more about baseball pitchers chewing tobacco at city ballparks? No, wait. I can tell you. I’ve never heard that. I have heard countless complaints from […]

 

CNN, DHS and SPLC’s Blame-Righty Hit Job

The Department of Homeland Security refuses to release a report on “right-wing” terrorism that somehow found its way into CNN’s hands last week during the farcical White House summit on Don’t Say Islamic Extremism. Your tax dollars are once again hard at work — defaming conservatives, deflecting from worldwide murderous jihad and denying the public […]

 


The Cancer of Multiculturalism

President Barack Obama surprised many at the National Prayer Breakfast when he lectured us, “Lest we get on our high horse and think this (barbarity) is unique to some other place, remember that during the Crusades and the Inquisition, people committed terrible deeds in the name of Christ.” Obama went on to explain, “In our […]

 


Why Rudy and Walker Were Right

This week, the media broke news that former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani said, at an event attended by prospective Republican presidential candidate Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker, that he does not believe President Barack Obama “loves America.” This isn’t news. Barack Obama doesn’t love free enterprise, believes founding philosophy was fatally flawed and sees the […]

 

Hollywood out of its political depth on Oscar night

PARIS — The Academy Awards represent the annual celebration of the most formidable soft-power cultural force the world has ever known: Hollywood. If there’s one thing that shouldn’t be expected from Hollywood, it’s depth — particularly of the political kind. What we can expect instead is mostly pathetic pandering to the worst of emotivist “yay/boo” […]

 


Feds Fiddle While Superbugs Spread

Seven patients at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center contracted a deadly superbug from an utterly routine medical procedure. Two have died. A third, an 18-year-old boy, fights on for his life after 83 days in the hospital, mostly in intensive care. All this suffering was preventable. If the CDC and the FDA had alerted UCLA […]

 

25 Quotes That Prove Liberals Don’t Love America

Rudy Giuliani has been attacked by the Left for correctly saying, “I do not believe that the president loves America.” Giuliani wasn’t wrong about that and he could have just as easily said, “Liberals don’t love America.” Sure, there are a few exceptions, but they just prove the rule. Most liberals detest America, want to […]

 


The Media’s Slimy Assault on Gov. Walker

I’m not sure which is more absurd, for the media to be up in arms about former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani’s statement that he doesn’t believe that President Obama loves America or for them to mug Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker for declining to weigh in on the subject. Many of us have been speculating […]

 

The President and ‘Violent Extremism’

Regarding Islamic violence — the greatest world evil since Nazism and Communism — the president of the United States, his administration, and the left generally live in a make-believe world, a world of denial. In their world, Islam is today, and has always been, a religion of peace; Muslims are threatened by Islamophobia; Christians are […]

 

Clinton Inc. Comes to Silicon Valley

On Tuesday, Hillary Clinton addresses the Watermark Silicon Valley Conference for Women. The former first lady, U.S. senator and secretary of state comes to the Bay Area at a time when I hear more people, on the left and the right, cringing at the prospect of Clinton’s heading the Democratic ticket next year — and, […]

 


Interventionism Kills: Ukraine One Year Later

It was one year ago last weekend that a violent coup overthrew the legally elected government of Ukraine. That coup was not only supported by U.S. and European governments — much of it was actually planned by them. Looking back at the events that led to the overthrow it is clear that without foreign intervention Ukraine […]

 

The Oscars are too black

You’ve never heard anybody complain, “The Black Entertainment Television (BET) Awards are so black!” And you never will. It’s time for the Oscars! A time when Hollywood will celebrate itself, and a time when race-baiters will seize the moment to discuss race yet again in another nonsensical way. “Why aren’t there more blacks in the […]

 

Black Christians Love Israel

In April 1963, Martin Luther King, Jr. landed in jail in Birmingham, Alabama for violating a local injunction against demonstrations. Sitting in jail, he learned that local white clergy advised against “outsiders coming in,” calling King’s activities “unwise and untimely.” In response, King wrote his famous “Letter from a Birmingham Jail.” In the pages long, […]

 

Of Course Barack Obama Loves America, He Just Doesn’t Like It Much

Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani caused an uproar this week when he questioned whether President Barack Obama loves America. Progressive, er, I mean “objective” journalists were beside themselves over the prospect of a Republican saying about a Democratic president the things Democrats and the media routinely said about President George W. Bush, or […]

 

Awaiting Our Next George Washington

“Boy, here’s something we could use more of today: unity among the American people. Americans are so divided.” “Maybe so, but we’ve been divided worse before.” “We were?” “Watch the History Channel series ‘Sons of Liberty.’ It dramatizes the heated arguments that took place among Colonial leaders, who had a lot to lose by declaring […]

 

The Swimsuit Issue

Ah, the middle of February. We all know what that means: Sports Illustrated’s swimsuit issue has arrived. That means that some folks, such as those in the American Decency Association (ADA), will voice concerns about exploitation of women. “Sports Illustrated DISRESPECTS women by displaying demeaning stereotypes of female sexuality,” says the ADA’s website. “The swimsuit […]

 

Big Government and Fat Taxes

How much should the government fine people whose children are deemed by (some) well-meaning bureaucrats as “obese?” $500? $800? Senators in our friendly associated state, Puerto Rico, have been debating that very issue this week. Seriously. If you believe government certainly should be measuring your children for a “fat tax” in school because there are […]

 

Obama On Path To Imperial Presidency

When Republicans challenged Obamacare in the courts, they sought to overcome the hurdle of persuading the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn a program passed by Congress and enacted by a president. The legal challenge by Texas and 25 other states to the Obama administration’s executive actions on immigration is different. Congress never passed a Deferred […]

 


From the OC to Oaktown, Drug War Opposition Builds

The times they are a-changin’. This week, a Republican congressman from Orange County, California, joined Oakland medical marijuana dispenser Steve DeAngelo to urge President Barack Obama, a Democrat who started out as a critic of the war on drugs, to curb his Department of Justice. They want Obama to make his prosecutors stop trying to […]

 

Dumb, Dumber and Dumbest

Where does the Obama Administration find these people? How did Marie Harf – the deputy spokesperson for the State Department’s Bureau of Public Affairs – get her job? On Monday she provided the latest proof that Barack Obama and the people he’s surrounded himself with are not just dangerously incompetent, they’re idiots. Appearing on MSNBC’s […]
