Vice President Joe Biden played the race card this week when he drawled Southern-style to a racially mixed audience that if Mitt Romney takes the White House, he’ll “unchain Wall Street. They’re going to put y’all back in chains.” Last week, a super PAC run by a former aide to President Obama released an ad […]

When my husband: Irving Moskowitz: was a young man he would go door-to-door around Milwaukee with a blue box collecting money to redeem property in the Land of Israel. Even though it was during the Great Depression, everyone put in what they could afford: pennies, nickels and dimes. In the 19th century, wealthy Jews like Rothschild were […]

The government wants to control what TV you watch, what light bulbs you have in your house, how big a soda you can buy, and apparently,: you can’t even feed poor kids in this country without having some useless government official sticking his nose into it. Angela Prattis has spent part of the summer distributing meals […]

I’ll be the first to admit that I don’t have a particularly high opinion of Mitt Romney’s skills as a politician, but: this may be the single most clever thing he’s done since he came on the national scene. “There’s another promise he made. You know that every time you get a paycheck you see there’s […]

.@speakerboehner Calling people who opposed TARP knuckle-draggers says a lot about your mentality & none of it’s good. You should apologize – John Hawkins (@johnhawkinsrwn) August 15, 2012     Did you think we shouldn’t have handed hundreds of billions of dollars of your money to well connected corporations and bankers who wanted capitalism on […]

Looks like Vice President Joe Biden has been taking extracurricular Democratic jive-talking lessons. The results of condescending liberals’ cynical racial pandering attempts are, as always, seismically cringe-inducing. At a campaign event in Danville, Va., the gaffetastic veep dropped his g’s and picked up a bizarre twang in front of an audience of black voters. Middle-Class […]

I’m a libertarian in part because I see a false choice offered by the political left and right: government control of the economy — or government control of our personal lives. People on both sides think of themselves as freedom lovers. The left thinks government can lessen income inequality. The right thinks government can make […]

President Barack Obama recently wrote an executive order that established a White House initiative on educational excellence for black Americans that will be housed in the Department of Education. It proposes “to identify evidence-based best practices” to improve black achievement in school and college. Though black education is in desperate straits, the president’s executive order […]

With all of the pressure: Israel: faces regarding: Iran, today’s media reports may be the most absurd one has heard yet.:  News has emerged that the United Nations Secretary General Ben Ki-moon is angry with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for disclosing information of a phone call between the two regarding the UN chief’s planned visit to: Tehran.: Netanyahu asked […]

Mitt Romney’s selection of Paul Ryan as his running mate has utterly unhinged the Obama campaign. Last week they were happily jabbering about Romney’s record at Bain Capital, implying that he had killed a man’s wife, stating that he was a tax cheat and blaming him for outsourcing jobs. This week they’re stuck defending Barack […]

A recent intelligence leak confirms something that regular readers of this column already know: that the Obama administration has officially authorized covert support of local “rebel” groups, through government agencies like the CIA, with the goal of destabilizing and subverting the Bashar al-Assad regime. The interesting consequence is that al-Qaeda is among the groups President […]
