This time it is evinced in the giant “welcome home” […]

 

What the Heck… Karl Rove Warns Republicans to Stop Attacking Obamacare?

Christians Need Not Apply: Michigan Teacher’s Union Wants Non-Christians For Jobs

As Michigan’s Mackinac Center reports, the […]

 

The Most ‘Transparent’ President in History Has More Secrecy Than Ever

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Once again we see an example of the essential falsehood upon which the Obama administration was built.

The Left Corrupts and Steals a Culture, It Doesn’t Convince

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Just a sort of homily for today… I was recently reading an article about the folk music scene as it developed in the 30s and 40s and it hit me that these people were yet another example of how leftists take a culture and corrupt it to push their political schemes instead of merely presenting […]

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Liberals are still wailing about the “danger” our kids face in schools due to guns in the classroom and mass shootings.

Thought Police: Employers Will Be Forced to Inform Obama Why They’re Firing Someone

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Now businesses will have to go hat in hand to Obama to explain themselves about why they are firing any particular employee.

Unemployment benefits fight misses forest for the trees

Posted on by Dustin Siggins

Yesterday, the Senate once again failed to pass an extension of unemployment benefits, with barely enough Republicans holding the line against more spending.

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

What We’ve Come To: When A Congresswoman Doesn’t Know What Congress Does

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Democrat Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee from Texas thinks it is the job of Congress to write a President’s Executive Orders.

America’s Top Colleges Have Done Away With Teaching U.S. History

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

A new report from Fox News on the trend among liberal arts colleges to drop any requirement that students take U.S. history classes to earn a degree is to me a mixed bag.

At long last we get a proper ruling on the First Amendment status of bloggers, one affording them the same legal status as “real” journalists; this from the Ninth Circuit Court in California, no less.
