Here’s Barack Obama channeling Elizabeth Warren about how all of those: awful successful people in America owe the government all of their money because it built roads and street signs.

Want to know how to make bullying worse? That’s easy: get: Congress involved. No one believes children should be bullied in school, no matter what the genesis of the bullying.

According to conventional wisdom, the older the person, the less young people are inclined to listen to him or her. This is probably true for some of you.

D.C. Democrats are pushing the DISCLOSE Act again. “DISCLOSE” stands for “Democracy Is Strengthened by Casting Light on Spending in Elections.” The American Civil Liberties Union and the National Right to Life Committee oppose this bill because they fear it would chill free speech.

Mitt Romney’s speech to the NAACP convention in Houston was — according to one’s political perspective — a “calculated move on his part to get booed…” to help his white base (Rep. Nancy Pelosi), or a presentation to “independent thinking adult citizens” whom he treated as equals (Rush Limbaugh). Having an adult conversation in a […]

After all, our large welfare apparatus is one of the main reasons why immigrants flock to the United States. : In addition, legal […]
When I was a young dork growing up in West Texas in the 70s and 80s, my folks raised me to believe that making good money via righteous and industrious means was actually a good thing–y’know, something to aspire to. Remember that notion? My folks would point out people in the neighborhood and community who […]
Warren G. Harding was corrupt, as was Richard M. Nixon. Bill Clinton and John F. Kennedy were like blind golfers, looking for a hole, any hole, every hole. Woodrow Wilson and Franklin Roosevelt were power-mad narcissists convinced they knew best how everyone else should live. Jimmy Carter was clueless. But as we approach the 100-year […]
LONDON — 1776 is a number with great resonance for Americans, but not one you expect to be featured on a British government website.

Reuters has apparently singed up on Obama’s communication team if its latest lovefest over his plans to favor America with “tax cuts” just in time for the January election campaign is any indication.

Jazz Shaw writes that this is Obama channeling his inner Elizabeth “High Cheekbones” Warren, who said last year “there is nobody in this country who got rich on his own.
