7 Political Questions for Republicans Who Support Amnesty

Republicans who support amnesty are like global warming alarmists. They can’t answer the most basic questions about what they believe. Since the Republican Party is now once again considering going to war with itself over amnesty instead of trying to move the ball forward for conservatism, it seems like a good time to ask some […]

Do Gun Control Laws Control Guns?

The gun control controversy is only the latest of many issues to be debated almost solely in terms of fixed preconceptions, with little or no examination of hard facts. Media discussions of gun control are dominated by two factors: the National Rifle Association and the Second Amendment. But the over-riding factual question is whether gun […]

Abolish Abortion

Today, January 22, 2013, is the 40th anniversary of the Supreme Court decisions: Roe v. Wade: and: Doe v. Bolton, which made abortion legal essentially throughout all 9 months of pregnancy. As we mourn the 55 million pre-born babies we have lost since those decisions, it is important for us, now more than ever, to show the world […]

Beware of Those Advising GOP To Unilaterally Disarm

Isn’t it ironic that Republicans keep receiving advice to be more conciliatory and work with President Obama while President Obama not only is receiving the opposite advice but fully intends to be even more divisive in his second term? On “Meet the Press” last week, former Secretary of State Colin Powell said: “There’s also a […]

‘Fiscal’ Conservatism Needs ‘Social’ Conservatism

For some years now, we have been told about a major division within American conservatism: fiscal conservatives vs. social conservatives. This division is hurting conservatism and hurting America — because the survival of American values depends on both fiscal and social conservatism. Furthermore, the division is logically and morally untenable. A conservative conserves all American […]

5 Things To Like About Obama

As President Barack Obama’s second term commences, I thought I’d write about the things I liked in his first term. Here are five: 1) Obama is a great role model — and not simply as a black American who broke racial barriers. Obama is a strong role model for the adult male — a husband […]

The man

Baseball great Stan Musial died over the weekend. He was 92. In September 2007, I was invited to make a speech to a civic group in St. Louis. I told the person who invited me I would come on one condition: that I could meet Stan Musial. “That’s no problem,” he said. “We are members […]

Distrusting The Gold Trade: A Response

(MoneyWatch): The argument between those who believe in gold as an investment and those who prefer to rely on stocks and bonds is an old one. It’s a beef that can get heated, quickly veering from how best to make a buck into fundamental questions about how we order our economy and what we expect from […]

Orwellian Inauguration 2013

Except for the date, 1984, George Orwell had it right. Replete with doublespeak, innuendos, and outright falsehoods, the Inauguration speech given by Barack Hussein Obama to launch his second term was a verbal déjà vu of the 2009 $787 billion stimulus package…a wish list for “progressives.” The full blown Orwellian hypocrisy was on clear display […]

They Will Have to Ban More Than Guns

Let’s pretend for a moment that the point of infringing on the Second Amendment is not to impose tyranny, but to make the public safer from the maniacs and criminals law-abiding citizens employ firearms to defend themselves and their families against. Our statist overlords will have to ban more than guns. They will also have […]

Bummer: Researchers Puzzled Why Globull Warming At A Standstill

Der Spiegel is breaking the silence about the reality of global warming. Perhaps they are confused about warming considering that 4 of the last 5 winters have been very harsh. The Global Warming Policy Foundation provides a translation Flowers are blooming earlier, sea level is rising — no doubt the climate is changing. The last […]

School Brands 5 Year Old Terrorist Over Bubble Gun

We’ve already witnessed two 6 year olds suspended for playing cops and robbers, making gun hands (fortunately they weren’t playing cowboys and Indians, they would have been branded raaaaacists, too). Now we have this hysteria (ABC) A 5-year-old girl was suspended from school earlier this week after she made what the school called a “terrorist […]

Interviewing Ben Shapiro About “Bullies: How the Left’s Culture of Fear and Intimidation Silences Americans”

I was pleased to have an opportunity to interview my friend Ben Shapiro about his new book Bullies: How the Left’s Culture of Fear and Intimidation Silences Americans. What follows is a slightly edited transcript of our conversation. First question, of course liberals would deny that they bully anyone. So let’s name names; give two […]

Sorry, But You Can’t Have Guns Because They Frighten Josh Marshall

Over at TPM, Josh Marshall wrote a humiliating, unmanly screed about how guns frighten him. It’s actually kind of pathetic. I’ve been thinking of writing some version of this post since the days immediately after the Newtown shootings. It overlaps with but is distinct from the division between people who are pro-gun or anti-gun or […]

GOP Puts Spotlight on Feckless Senate Democrats

Have the House Republicans come up with a winning strategy on the debt ceiling and spending cuts? Or just a viable one? Maybe so. They certainly need one that is at least the latter, if not the former. Barack Obama is up in the polls since the election, as most re-elected presidents have been. The […]

Imaginary People Are More Real Than You Know

Who hasn’t laughed at the revelation that Notre Dame football star Manti Te’o had a “fake” girlfriend? I meant to spend five minutes on the subject on my radio show and ended up doing an hour and then making fun of it randomly throughout all three hours. As funny as it is, and it is […]
