Ronald Bailey: Newt's Despicable Gasoline Price Promise

Newt imagines he can control the law of supply and demand. Former House Speaker and current Republican presidential hopeful Newt Gingrich has promised voters that gasoline will be $2.50 per gallon after he becomes president.

John Stossel: Greed, Capitalism And Romney

Who are the REAL bad guys?    Now that Mitt Romney is likely to be the Republican nominee, we can expect new attacks on his “vulture capitalism.” That’s how Rick Perry characterized his private equity work when he was still a GOP presidential candidate. As the campaign has unfolded, Newt Gingrich’s supporters ran an ad about Romney’s   ...

David Harsanyi: The GOP's ObamaCare Problem

Both Mitt and Newt have supported individual mandate. Once the presidential nomination process is settled—and Lord knows that day can't come fast enough—Republicans will get back to doing what they do best, getting on Barack Obama's case.

Liberals getting high on the elixir of power. After all these years it took a great constitutional scholar who had spent a life cloistered in academia and street work to utterly rape our most cherished Constitution. This business of bypassing the Senate to pick “recess” appointments to positions most Americans have never heard of may ...

David Harsanyi: The GOP's Creative Destruction

Venture socialism is empathetic. Venture Capitalism is useful. Yes, it's true that unlike some Republicans, Democrats don't "enjoy firing people."
