Walter E. Williams: Racial Double Standards

Double standards now accepted as politically correct. Back in 2009, U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder said we were "a nation of cowards" on matters of race. Permit me to be brave and run a few assertions by you just to see whether we're on the same page. There should be two standards for civilized conduct: one for whites,  ... MORE

Russ Vaughn: Fast & Furious Was Gun Control To Die For

Operation Vast & Obvious grows ominous. When Operation Fast & Furious first broke into the news, many of us immediately questioned the DoJ's irrational rationale. The proffered assertion that the program was designed to track firearms purchased in America to leaders of the Mexican drug cartels simply made no sense. The glaringly obvious flaw in the ... MORE

An Extremist The Leftwing Media Is Happy To Ignore

Obama fan pleads guilty to Sheriff Joe Arpaio kill threat.     A Knoxville, Tenn. man admitted on Tuesday that he threatened the lives of Maricopa County, Ariz. sheriff Joe Arpaio and his family because he feared the lawman might undermine Barack Obama by questioning the legitimacy of his birth certificate — his eligibility to serve as president.    ...

Barry Farber: Breitbart's Death Just A Coincidence?

How far-fetched are Breitbart conspiracy rumors?    First, let’s nail down the difference between a conspiracy theorist and a broad-minded person. A conspiracy theorist says, “Of course, Andrew Breitbart was assassinated. Look how many people benefit from his absence. He told CPAC he had videos that could doom Obama’s re-election chances. He told   ... MORE

Robert Stacy McCain: The Breitbart Experience

His powerful voice for individual liberty will be missed.      Last Friday, at 10:30 p.m., Andrew Breitbart sent me a two-word text message: "Where y'at?" We were both in Troy, Michigan, that night. He was scheduled to speak at the next day's Americans for Prosperity forum. I was in town to cover the Republican presidential primary campaign. Knowing he would be  ... MORE

Peter Berger: On Blasphemy Laws

Religious groups raise hell over words.   In common usage blasphemy means words and actions which constitute an insult to God or other sacred entities. To the modern mind the term may seem obsolete, a leftover from primitive superstition. It is anything but obsolete to many people in the contemporary world. Toward the end of January two ... MORE

Steve Watson: Fox Business News Axes Freedom Watch

Info on how to get Napolitano's show back on. The Fox Business Channel has cancelled one of the only shows on the entire Fox News network that was in any way informative or watchable - Freedom Watch with Judge Andrew Napolitano. In a press release distributed late Thursday, the channel announced that its entire prime-time programming lineup  ...

Theodore B. Olson: Obama's Enemies List

Private citizens have become targets for White House attacks. How would you feel if aides to the president of the United States singled you out by name for attack, and if you were featured prominently in the president's re-election campaign as an enemy of the people? What would you do if the White House engaged in derogatory speculative innuendo ...

Why Ron Paul's Surge Is Making Them Nervous

by Jacob Horneberger.  While big government statists in both the Republican and Democrat parties remain mystified over Ron Paul's surge in the polls in Iowa, the ones who seem most confounded by this phenomenon are members of the mainstream media, who themselves are statist to the core. They just can't figure out how it's possible that increasing numbers of  ... MORE

Thomas Sowell: Numbers Games

The relationship of age and income. One of the things that has struck me, when I have gone on luxury cruise ships, is that most of the passengers look like they are older than the captain -- and luxury cruise ships don't have juveniles as captains. The reason for the elderly clientele is fairly simple: Most people don't reach the point when they can afford to travel on...

VIDEO: The Left Can't Tolerate Independent Blacks


The true perpetrators of plantation politics reveal themselves again.

Thomas Sowell: The 'Hunger' Hoax

Another lesson in political deception. Twenty years ago, hysteria swept through the media over "hunger in America." Dan Rather opened a CBS Evening News broadcast in 1991 declaring, "one in eight American children is going hungry tonight." Newsweek, the Associated Press and the Boston Globe repeated this statistic, and many others joined the media chorus, with or ... MORE

Stephen C. Webster: Drug War Corruption

Drug cartels throw fundraisers for U.S. officials.  Two former law enforcement officials who worked with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) as confidential informants on probes into police corruption have come forward with allegations of drug cartel ties to top cops, judges and elected officials. Greg Gonzales, a retired sheriff's deputy, and Wesley Dutton ...
