More evidence the government is not us. The Obama administration’s IRS actively attempted to enlist the FBI in its war against the Tea Party. Does anyone still think this is a “phony scandal?” Does the following scenario sound like the United States of America, the land of liberty, or does it sound like a dictatorship, a land of paranoia ...

Jay Sekulow: The IRS's War On Free Speech
More evidence the government is not us. The Obama administration’s IRS actively attempted to enlist the FBI in its war against the Tea Party. Does anyone still think this is a “phony scandal?” Does the following scenario sound like the United States of America, the land of liberty, or does it sound like a dictatorship, a land of paranoia ... MORETea Party Upstart Sends House Majority Leader Packing
The winds of change begin to blow. The Tea Party should plaster photos of Mark Twain all over their homes. "The reports of my death are greatly exaggerated," Twain said after two erroneous obituaries. Far more death notices were filed in the past year about the Tea Party — before Tuesday night brought one of the more stunning election ... MOREGeorge Will Is Confident Americans Will Rebel
by Benjamin Weingarten. Against abusive government. In an interview with TheBlaze Books in connection with the release of his new book, “A Nice Little Place on the North Side: Wrigley Field at One Hundred,” we spoke with prodigious columnist and author George Will on all things baseball and his unified theory of beer,
and then ... MORETo End IRS Abuses Of Free Speech, End The IRS
by J.D. Tuccille. To read the headlines, you'd
think the biggest controversy involving the Internal Revenue
Service (IRS) is over the
spat between Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) and Rep. Elijah Cummings
(D-Md.) in the course of an
aborted hearing into the IRS's targeting of primarily
conservative political organizations. "We're better than that ... MOREWhy Republicans Are Surrendering On The Debt Ceiling
by Molly Ball. The last stage of grieving is acceptance. The first wave of Tea Party lawmakers strode into Congress in 2011 on a wave of denial and anger. They were angry at President Obama and business as usual in Washington. But they were also in denial about their power—or rather powerlessness—to change it. Three years later, the right-wingers ... MOREWhat Can Unite Liberals And Tea Partyers? The NSA
by Connie Cass. Hoyt Sparks says he has no use for liberal Democrats and their "socialistic, Marxist, communist" ways. Toni Lewis suspects tea party Republicans are "a bunch of people who probably need some mental health treatment." Politically speaking, the tea-party supporter in rural North Carolina and the Massachusetts liberal live a world apart. ... MORE
Ron Paul: 'I Would Think' Rand Is Running In 2016
by Jane C. Timm. Hey Dad, is Rand running for president in 2016? “I would think so, he wouldn’t be doing what he’s doing, but I
haven’t had a conversation of what your plan is,” Paul said on Morning
Joe. “He’s been pretty independent.” Kentucky’s Tea Party darling Sen. Rand Paul is already being floated as a potential 2016 candidate for the ... MORE
Jeffrey T. Brown: What The Know-Nothings Know
Our poor, hapless, uninformed, clueless president! He campaigned on the promise to fundamentally transform our country into his idealized socialist wonderland, and as soon as his efforts began to bear fruit, he begged us to believe he had no idea how. It's amazing the surprises with which our poor president has been blind-sided ... MOREThomas Sowell: Tea Party At The Crossroads
Just what is in their rational self-interest? Third parties have had an unbroken record of failure in American presidential politics. So it was refreshing to see in the Tea Party an insurgent movement, mainly of people who were not professional politicians, but who nevertheless had the good sense to see that their only chance of getting their ... MOREBarry Farber: Why They're After The Brilliant Ted Cruz
Why are the tree-dwellers making faces at him? There’s something “other-worldly” about Sen. Ted Cruz. And the reaction he provokes. The whole Cruz phenomenon reminds me of the billionaire industrialist who invited 50 of his most important business friends on a hunting trip in Maine. As dusk began to set in, their guide ... MORE
Peter Schiff: Debt Ceiling Delusions
Debt accumulation does not equal economic growth. The popular take on the current debt ceiling stand-off is that the Tea Party wing of the Republican Party has a delusional belief that it can hit the brakes on new debt creation without bringing on an economic catastrophe. While Republicans are indeed kidding themselves ... MORESteve Chapman: Obama And The Misery Of A Second Term
"All glory is fleeting." Everyone elected president comes into office modeling himself on some predecessor: Abraham Lincoln, Franklin Roosevelt, Ronald Reagan. But those who win re-election eventually end up wondering whether they should have emulated James K. Polk instead. Why? Because he promised to serve only one term, and he stuck ... MORENon-Interventionist Republicans May Help GOP
by Emily Ekins. Last night Kentucky Senator Rand Paul delivered a televised
response warning against President Obama’s appeal for
military intervention in Syria. Paul contended the president had
failed to make a compelling case that the two-year ongoing Syrian
civil war poses a risk to our national security. The Reason-Rupe
poll shows nearly ... MORE
