Is this a good thing or a bad thing? (NY Times) President Obama this week will seek to force American businesses to pay more overtime to millions of workers, the latest move by his administration to confront corporations that have had soaring profits even as wages have stagnated.

Back in September, our family received an Obamacare-induced health insurance death notice. We joined millions of other Americans whose individual market health plans died after Democrats lied about our ability to keep the plans and doctors we liked. President Obama tried to “fix” the mess he created. But as usual, the federal government’s solutions have […]
You’ve probably heard that Democratic Party leaders decided that a way to win votes this November is to shout loudly that Republicans wage “war on women.” Politico calls this a “proven, persuasive argument.” Give me a break. The idea of a conservative “war on women” is as silly as propaganda I was taught in college: […]
Establishment Republicans always remind us of how the tea party cost the Party crucial seats in 2010 and 2012; seats that might have delivered control of the Senate to the GOP. And, they have a point. If tea party candidates had not won primaries in Delaware, Nevada, Colorado, Indiana, and Missouri, these states might now […]
PARIS — Later this month, U.S. President Barack Obama will visit Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Here’s hoping he decides to stay home and help his daughters with their homework instead. America’s decreasing influence in the Middle East and Eurasia might be the result of deliberate strategic policy. Or it’s simply ineptitude — in which case it’s […]
Not every child can be saved. Not every kid who grows up broken can be steered away from bad choices by caring adults toward some new life, one with a purpose. But Valerie Groth, a veteran Chicago Public Schools social worker at New Sullivan Elementary School on the South Side, believed she had found that […]
It’s on! Ostensible allies for the last couple years, Sens. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and Rand Paul (R-Ky.) have commenced the battle for the unofficial title of conservative front-runner. That’s no surprise, but what is remarkable is their choice of weapons: foreign policy. For the last several years, there has been a lot of overblown hype […]

Obamacare is collapsing. Only 10 percent of uninsured Americans who qualify for Obamacare exchange plans are signing up. Even with subsidies to soften the sticker shock, 90 percent of the people these plans were intended to help are saying “no thanks,” according to a survey released last week by management consultants McKinsey & Company. A […]
For those investors who have grown used to the relatively minor geo-political crises of the past few years, the developing situation in the Ukraine and the Crimea must come as an unexpected communiqué from the early 20th Century.There can be little doubt that the drama will impact financial markets.

The thing about guns is, it’s better to have it and not need it, than need it and not have it. : Kenny Guffey never thought he’d have to use his gun, and then a knife wielding man crashed through his mom’s front door: He was only about two minutes away from the home when his […]
Things like this are why I call the the Isle of Churchill “The Late, Great Britain.” : They’ve lost everything Churchill won for them. : Case in point: Parents have condemned a school’s decision to ban all pork products from the menu and replace other meats with halal versions.

A city government in California is thinking of illicitly using eminent domain to essentially steal a water company from its owners because residents are unhappy with their water bills. If they are unhappy now, it will get far worse once the government owns the water service. Once again California serves as an example of what […]
Sometimes I feel bad for women…. the weakened sex. The masculinization of women have actually made them weaker and stripped them of real power. Consider the famous quote published in 1865; “The Hand That Rocks The Cradle Is The Hand That Rules The World”, a poem by William Ross Wallace that praises motherhood as the […]
Ted Cruz calls himself the anti-Crist. The reference is to the ultimate turncoat RINO, Charlie Crist, a liberal Republican who went independent in a failed effort to slither his way past Tea Party upstart Marco Rubio into the US Senate. Crist then joined the Democrats, even going so far in his treachery as to endorse […]
One reason Putin has been able to impose his will so effortlessly in the Ukraine is the fecklessness of current American leadership. Another is that the Ukrainian military is not in a position to put up a fight – in part due to that same American leadership: As a U.S. senator, Barack Obama won $48 […]
I often feel atheists unbelief, torments them so much that they sit around and stew in their envy of other people’s belief.

I […]
While I was on tour with the Tea Party Express in 2009, I had a frank conversation with a reporter from CNN. I observed that “news reporters are no longer reporters but that they are more like scientists. A reporter use to observe what was happening and recount without any opinion or emotion. A scientist […]
So, as we all know, Senate Democrats had a sleepover to yammer on about “climate change” Monday night, which was mostly about fundraising and exciting the base, since they had no legislation to offer, and Democrats control the Senate. The biggest thing to come out of the sleepover? The Lorax (The Hill) Sens. Ed Markey […]

As a first step towards gun confiscation, Connecticut is implementing gun registration.

In the first two parts of this series, I explained the comparative dangers and health risks of alcohol and marijuana. To elevate one over the other is like saying a plain doughnut isn’t so bad as a glazed one. The point is that neither of the drugs is good for us or our culture. We […]
