Barry Farber: BHO And His Magic Shield

No failure the media won't ignore.    There are bookies in London who will take your bets on who will be the next pope. As long as they’re such sports, will they make book on this: Is there anything President Obama can do or say that will pierce his magic shield and turn American mass media reverence into rage? Obama is the most incredible    ...

EYE-OPENER: Did you know the U.S. crime rate has steadily fallen since 1992?

Harry Biswanger: The Nature Of The Anti-Gun Campaign

A need to switch the national conversation. Whatever your views on whether or not there should be controls on guns, the anti-gun control movement needs discussion, because it is extreme. For instance, Monday morning on CNN, the news at 10a.m. ET opened with the issue of gun control and was of course unrelievedly slanted to the anti-gun ...

Media Fabricates Test To Demonize Pot And Driving

by Michael Suede.  Fox News Denver recently did a story on the effects of driving high on cannabis.  In the process of doing the story, they had people drive a video game simulator to test the effects of impairment. However, Fox rigged the driving simulator to force crashes so they could bias the story against cannabis users. One of the test participants  ... MORE

John Stossel - Food Bunk

We'll all be poisoned!      With America's "fiscal cliff" approaching, pundits wring their hands over the supposed catastrophe that government spending cuts will bring. A scare newsletter called "Food Poisoning Bulletin" warns that if government reduces food inspections, "food will be less safe ... (because) marginal companies ...    ... MORE

The Governing Class And The Decline Of America

by Steve McCann.  The United States will not reverse its descent into the abyss of financial and societal bankruptcy until the current political and governing establishment is replaced.  That will not happen until the American people, who have been deliberately ill-educated and deceived, experience first-hand the early stages of the turmoil and        ...

Top Underreported Story: The Expanding Police State

by Yael Chanoff.    People who get their information exclusively from mainstream media sources may be surprised at the lack of enthusiasm on the left for President Barack Obama in this crucial election. But that’s probably because they weren’t exposed to the full online furor sparked by Obama’s continuation of his predecessor’s overreaching approach ... MORE

VIDEO: Did Mitt Romney Violate The Constitution?


MSNBC political commentator asserts Mitt is getting our founding document wrong.

Andrew Napolitano: Let Gary Johnson Debate

If you want the right questions asked, that is.    President Obama has been a failure. On his watch, the American economy has significantly deteriorated largely because he has stifled free market forces by over-regulating them and because he has laden taxpayers with debt. Those two factors alone -- the federal government increasing the cost of doing ... MORE

Thomas Sowell: Race Cards

A powerful tactic to combat independent thought. If you are sick and tired of seeing politicians and others playing the race card, or if you are just disgusted with the grossly dishonest way racial issues in general are portrayed, then you should get a copy of Ann Coulter's new book, "Mugged." Its subtitle is: "Racial Demagoguery from the Seventies to Obama." ... MORE

Thomas Sowell: News Versus Propaganda

Using deception to shape perception.  Since so many in the media cannot resist turning every tragedy into a political talking point, it was perhaps inevitable that (1) someone would try to link the shooting rampage at the Batman movie in Colorado to the Tea Party, and that (2) some would try to make it a reason to impose more gun control laws. Too    ...

Government Beneficiaries And Other Fairly Tales

by Sheldon Richman.   I admit I’m amused by the unceasing economic and political malarkey that flows from the pundits at MSNBC. Many of these gems come during its promos, which, as viewers of the network know very well, promote not its programs but all-pervasive government. The two I have in mind today are from Lawrence    ...

Investors.Com: ALEC And The Left's War On Free Speech

Journalists show their "free speech" colors. If you want an insight into today's left, look at its multifront war against the American Legislative Exchange Council for committing the grave sin of pushing free-market bills in state legislatures. At a recent meeting in Washington, Aniello Alioto of ProgressNow Colorado summed up the left-wing's campaign against  ...

Thomas Sowell: A Censored Race War?

A one-way street called 'hate crimes.' When two white newspaper reporters for the Virginian-Pilot were driving through Norfolk, and were set upon and beaten by a mob of young blacks — beaten so badly that they had to take a week off from work — that might seem to have been news that should have been reported, at least by their own newspaper.   ...

Walter E Williams: Leftist Race-Baiters

Ever vigilant at fanning the flames of racism.    MSNBC's Chris Matthews, in a recent debate with former Republican National Chairman Michael Steele, called the Republican Party the "grand wizard crowd." Grand wizard is the title given to the leader of the Ku Klux Klan. It is truly misinformed to call Republicans the party of the Klan. Throughout   ... MORE
