Obama Commutes Sentences of Drug Criminals

We still have almost 2 years left of this nightmare, and already the prison doors are swinging open: President Obama [yesterday] announced his decision to commute the sentences of 22 convicted drug offenders – many of them serving time after being convicted of conspiracy to distribute either cocaine, heroin, marijuana or methamphetamine. “The 22 commutations […]

Three month-old girl dies from ‘non accidental’ head injuries ‘inflicted by babysitter’ just a day after her mom returned to work

Just unbelievably, tragically sad. Such a beautiful little girl and such wonderful, loving parents. The babysitter turned out to be a murderous monster. When it comes to sitters, they chose poorly I guess. But how could they know? What kind of beast murders a three month-old baby by bashing its head? I hope that South […]

Christian Group Kicked Off Campus For Extremely Ridiculous Reason

It’s all the rage now telling Christian’s what they can and can’t think. It’s all en vogue for college campus to come up with ridiculous rulings. Put the two together and you have a Christian organization kicked out for saying their leaders should be Christian. “Every club is allowed to establish its own standards for […]

Arkansas Legislature Passes Religious Freedom Restoration Legislation

This had made liberals very upset, because institutionalized, government approved bigotry against religions (well, any religion but Islam) is a Good Thing in their world (NY Times) The Arkansas legislature on Tuesday passed its version of a bill described by proponents as a religious freedom law, even as Indiana’s political leaders struggled to gain control […]

Substance and Style

All men sail through life’s rough waters, what shipwrecks some empowers others. Undying perseverance and a devotion to a higher calling belong to those who survive. Heroes they are, though that is not what we call them initially. England’s King George VI, for example, was depicted by the press of his day as a drab […]

The Green-Card Racket for Beltway Cronies

Can we stop putting America up for sale to the most politically connected bidders yet? Where is our self-respect? Since 2001, I’ve warned about the systemic and bipartisan corruption of America’s EB-5 immigrant investor visa program. The latest report from the Department of Homeland Security’s inspector general — which outlines the meddling and pandering of […]

The Next Bubble

They’re doing it again! When the last housing bubble burst, politicians blamed “greedy banks.” They said mortgage companies lent money recklessly, making loans to people with dubious credit, for down payments as low as 3 percent. “It will work out,” said the optimistic bankers. Regulators didn’t disagree. Everyone said, “Home prices will keep going up.” […]

Self-Enforcing Discrimination

Black politicians, civil rights organizations and others who say they are concerned with the welfare of poor black people often support harmful measures. One of the most effective tools for disadvantaged people is to be able to charge a lower price for what they sell and pay a higher price for what they buy. Let’s […]

Hillary Is Stuck

Politicians depend on their ability to maneuver as their most basic survival skill. Force them to stand and exchange blows without the ability to shift their ground and they are as helpless as a kitten. Presidents, for example, fail when they get stuck and can no longer maneuver, as with Johnson on Vietnam, Nixon on […]

Guns vs. Budget

The Republican majority’s budget plan — enacted in a blitz of votes before lawmakers rushed home for spring break — tells us which GOP presidential hopefuls are serious about halting the nation’s soaring debt. Sens. Ted Cruz (Texas) and Rand Paul (Ky.) voted against the GOP plan because it spends too much, while Lindsey Graham […]

Any Lingering Doubt?

There is no lingering doubt which side President Obama is on. Only brazenly oblivious to reality people still rationalize continued support of his inexplicably dangerous and erratic decision-making. Obama’s scandals are overwhelming as one exposure quickly fades into another cover-up. American racial and political divisiveness have not been greater in generations. His foreign policy decisions […]

The Fascist Left and Same-Sex Marriage

Last week, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence signed a law with the same name as one signed on the federal level by President Bill Clinton in 1993, which was co-sponsored by Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., the presumptive next Senate minority leader. Naturally, Pence found himself on the wrong end of a partisan barrage from ABC News’ […]

Are political winds of change blowing in Chicago?

The oligarchs who run Chicago don’t want to consider the unthinkable — at least not publicly. Yet as the campaign for mayor of Chicago between Cook County Commissioner Jesus “Chuy” Garcia and Mayor Rahm Emanuel enters its final week, some oligarchs are worried. They’re probably wondering: What if Rahm really loses this thing? If Rahm […]
