There’s more to the deceit and dishonesty about Social Security and Medicare discussed in my recent columns. Congress tells us that one-half (6.2 percent) of the Social Security tax is paid by employees and that the other half is paid by employers, for a total of 12.4 percent. Similarly, we are told that a Medicare […]

Just when you thought the Obama administration couldn’t antagonize America any further, along comes Education Secretary Arne Duncan. He didn’t just attack “white suburban moms” and children over their criticism of the Common Core “standards”/testing/data-mining program. The feds’ top educrat also managed to insult every one of the nation’s minority families and educators who oppose […]

Marty the Magician performed magic tricks for kids, including the traditional rabbit-out-of-a-hat. Then one day: “I was signing autographs and taking pictures with children and their parents,” he told me. “Suddenly, a badge was thrown into the mix, and an inspector said, ‘Let me see your license.’” In “Harry Potter” books, a creepy Ministry of […]

PARIS — The U.S. has accepted a proposal by Libyan Prime Minister Ali Zeidan to train as many as 7,000 conventional Libyan soldiers plus counterterrorist forces. What an exceedingly bad idea. This could put the Obama administration’s Hope-and-Change bus on the road to a potential new fiasco in Libya. Think Benghazi — except everywhere. Speaking […]

Like old soldiers, Obamacare may never die. It may just fade away. Certainly each of its provisions is shrinking before our eyes. The most obvious evidence of its vanishing is the dismal enrollment data. With only 106,000 people signing up by mid-November, it risks becoming a trivial footnote to the health care landscape. While the […]

President Barack Obama says he can “fix” the millions of canceled health insurance plans with an administrative change. He’s claiming more executive power — power for himself — than the Constitution allows and playing fast and loose with the truth. The culprit behind the cancellations is not administrative regulation, as Obama asserts; it’s Section 2702 […]

In Britain to promote her film “The Butler,” Oprah Winfrey gave an interview to the BBC last week. Not surprisingly, she promoted her movie about race relations in the White House with comments about race relations and the White House. The BBC’s Will Gompertz asked: “Has it ever crossed your mind that some of the […]

New York City police authorities are investigating a series of unprovoked physical attacks in public places on people who are Jewish, in the form of what is called “the knockout game.” The way the game is played, one of a number of young blacks decides to show that he can knock down some stranger on […]

On Friday evening, MSNBC’s Martin Bashir, a man known largely for interviewing Michael Jackson back in 2003, made a name for himself in a new way: He stated that former Alaska governor and vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin deserved to have someone “p*ss” and “s***” in her mouth. The repulsive comments came on the heels of […]

The time for half-measures is over. The Obama Administration can’t restore millions of canceled insurance policies, it can’t fix: healthcare.gov: fast enough to cover the gap, and it’s leaving millions of Americans not just uninsured but also in violation of federal law – through no fault of their own. This is intolerable, and it’s unconstitutional.: : Jay Sekulow & […]
