All you need to do is look at the headlines out of Central America to see why tens of thousands of children are ending up at our border. “In Columbia (sic), Rising Violence Breeds New Doubts” (N.Y. Times); “Guatemala Seen Slipping Into a Haven For Drugs” (LA Times); “Democracy Jeopardized as New Wave of Violence […]

Thank you for your service. You’re fired: In a stunning display of callousness, the Defense Department has announced that thousands of soldiers – many serving as commanding officers in Afghanistan – will be notified in the coming weeks that their service to the country is no longer needed. Last week, more than 1,100 Army captains […]
A lawyer for Noor Hussein, a Pakistani immigrant who killed his wife over an unsatisfactory dinner, says his sentence should be reduced because there’s no Pakistani food in prison. Isn’t complaining about the menu exactly what landed him in this situation? A Pakistani immigrant who killed his wife for feeding him lentils should be given […]
There have been some very loud calls lately for Obama’s impeachment, including from that ever-present thorn in his side, Sarah Palin, which apparently is confusing to our constitutional scholar president. Maybe it’s because they forgot to use really big words and write it out in crayon for him, so it would be easy to understand. […]
It is perhaps every parent’s worth nightmare: hearing that their daughter was raped. And for one 16-year-old girl, that horror became a reality for her when she was date-raped. What makes her story even more horrific is that she had no idea what had happened until pictures and video of the assault went viral on […]
BOOM: Congressman Steve Stockman Thursday filed a resolution directing the House Sergeant-At-Arms to arrest former IRS Director of the Exempt Organizations Unit Lois Lerner on charges of contempt of Congress. “Asking the Justice Department to prosecute Lois Lerner for admittedly illegal activity is a joke. The Obama administration will not prosecute the Obama administration. How […]
20-year-old Haley Cremer was out for a jog last month when she was struck by a speeding SUV, catapulting her a horrifying 78 feet to her death. The worst part? The driver, Jeffrey Bickoff, was driving with a suspended license after being found at fault for ten other accidents. Bickoff allegedly downed a few shots […]
If incest is no longer taboo, it’s safe to say that the very concept of a taboo is dead. An Australian judge named Garry Nielson says society might just have to accept consensual sex between siblings, likening these relationships to–surprise, surprise!–gay unions. The best part? Nielson made these comments during the trial of a man […]
The innocuously named Environmental Protection Agency rivals the IRS itself as the most tyrannical tool of the hypertrophied federal leviathan. To its growing list of victims we can add Mitcham Farms: The peach orchards at Mitcham Farms, near the north Louisiana city of Ruston, have survived winter freezes, droughts and dangerous hail storms, but they […]
It is called progressivism for a reason. The only way its proponents can achieve their objectives is to progress toward it by increments. Otherwise, decent people would finally rise up in horrified opposition to defend what is left of civilization. Homosexuality has been imposed to the point that failing to endorse it will get you […]
It’s official: the illegal immigration crisis we’re seeing right now is nothing less than an invasion of the United States, made possible by the Mexican and Guatemalan governments — and of course, our own Dear Leader, who is sitting blithely by, letting it all happen. The presidents of Mexico and Guatemala, Enrique Pena Nieto and […]
Even The Washington Post’s Juliet Eilperin can’t avoid writing in a snarky tone over this Bears, beer and horse heads: What exactly is going on with the leader of the free world? On a single day this week in Denver, President Obama scarfed down pizza and drinks with strangers, shot pool with Colorado’s governor and […]
Remember, not a smidgen of corruption. Fortunately, Obama will get to the bottom of the issue while ignoring the border and hitting a barbecue place (Fox News) A federal judge has ordered the IRS to explain “under oath” how the agency lost a trove of emails from the official at the heart of the Tea […]
When I signed on as vice chair at the NRSC, it was based on a explicit commitment from leadership that the NRSC was going to stay out of primaries. Had they not made that commitment I would not have taken on that role. I participated in the NRSC early on and when the decision was […]
Some sore losers just don’t know when to pick up their billion-dollar marbles and go away. Far, far away. I’m looking at you, Michael Bloomberg. The former New York City mayor mouthed off about my adopted hometown of Colorado Springs and my friends in nearby Pueblo in Rolling Stone magazine this month. He snidely bashed […]
Only if we understand that Wednesday was “Opposite Day” can we comprehend President Obama’s bizarre remarks in Texas concerning our border crisis. He said he had asked Gov. Rick Perry, “Are (members of Congress) more interested in politics, or are they more interested in solving the problem? … If the preference is for politics, then […]
It’s simply mystifying that so many Americans look to candidates who pretend to be just like them. We’re the worst. In the rare instance I am moved to vote, the least I expect is for a candidate to be far more successful than I am. This last hurdle is not particularly challenging, mind you. Which […]
In his weekly column for CNN.com, Julian Zelizer makes a reasonable case that “Distrustful Americans still live in age of Watergate.” In his eyes, this helps explain why the president’s health care law and other initiatives have encountered so much resistance. The Princeton Professor concludes, “The worst effect of Watergate is that it created a […]
Skitter, scamper, scuttle. That seems to be the mode of the Obama administration of late. Skitter away from your red line in Syria. Scamper off to a meeting you’d previously nixed with Texas Gov. Rick Perry. Scuttle as much as the Constitution as you can, at least until you get called on it by 9-0 […]
Two University of Miami football players have been arrested and dismissed from the university after being criminally charged with sexual battery on a 17-year-old girl. According to ESPN, the two admitted to buying drinks for the girl and then bringing her back to a dorm room where they engaged in nonconsensual sex acts with her. […]
New Hampshire GOP establishment has foisted Walt Havenstein on the state as the Republican candidate for Governor. But, typical of these establishment types, it seems that they have more contempt for people on their own side than they do for the real enemy; the Democrats. Havenstein, for instance, calls you Tea Partiers the disgusting name […]
Thoughtlessness is taken to a high level as an abandoned dog is found shivering under a tree with the words ‘free’ and ‘I need a home’ scrawled on its head and body in black marker. The precious pooch was sitting alone on the side of a Benicia, California street on July 3 when passerby Shannon […]
Planned Parenthood receives half a billion dollars in taxpayer government funds every year, even though a Gallup poll last year showed that 70% of Americans believe abortion should be illegal under most conditions. On Tuesday, Senate Democrats introduced a bill that would force Christians and other conscientious objectors to pay for drugs and devices, including […]
