“Mitt Romney: Not one of us.” That was the slogan of an Obama ad. And, yes, Mitt Romney is not one of
us. Who’s “us”? Whoever we are, or they are, Romney isn’t one of them.
And I’m not either. Fine with me, in a way. I don’t think much of
Obama’s “us.” I’m very sorry that Obama has won again, because I think he’s a bad
president, and I’ve also come to think ... MOREJay Nordlinger: The People's Choice

by Karl Dickey. New York and New Jersey are not much different from Florida when it comes to one aspect of reacting to a hurricane or major storm - price gouging
laws. What is often hailed as a great idea by the masses and
politicians looking for re-election has become another of government's
unintended consequences. And what dire ... MOREMore Years For Obama, More Tears For America
by Charles Hurt. All that for nothing. It was the billion-dollar election that did not decide one single damned thing. Republicans control the House. Democrats control the Senate. And the White House remains in Democratic hands with absolutely no mandate whatsoever. Another four years with no hope of change. In
this environment with this ... MOREEthan Nadelmann: States Right To Legalize Marijuana
Washington state and Colorado lead the way. Washington State and Colorado made history tonight by becoming the first states in the United States - to approve the legal regulation of marijuana. These
victories likely represent the beginning of the end of marijuana
prohibition in this country and many others as well. Just as the repeal
of alcohol ... MORE A. Barton Hinkle: The $4,000 Trash Can
$56.6 billion in compliance costs imposed since Jan 1. According to conventional progressive wisdom, regulation is the means by
which a compassionate government protects the weak and innocent
from the strong and malevolent. Try telling that to Brad Jones. Jones is one of the owners of Buckingham Slate, a Virginia business a little

ObamaCare Drops Full-Time Employment
by Walter Russell Mead. Many businesses anticipate that Obamacare will deal a blow to their
bottom line in the form of fines and penalties. Some are now planning to
evade the law’s fine for uninsured full-time employees by pushing
full-time employees to part-time status. The Wall Street Journal reports: Several restaurants, hotels and retailers ... MOREKatie Kieffer: Cleaning Obama's Bloodstains
Blood is staining the globe. Not the blood of terrorists (enemies of
America), but the blood of innocent Americans. We cannot resuscitate our
loved ones. We can only attempt to clean President Obama’s bloodstains
by removing him—and all who think like him—from public office. There is no need to “judge” Obama’s heart to realize that he is unfit to
lead; ... MORE
Thomas Sowell - Waiving Freedom
Arbitrary waivers provide political favors. Among the objections to ObamaCare, one that has not gotten as much
attention as it should is the president's power to waive the law for any
company, union or other enterprise he chooses. The 14th
Amendment to the Constitution provides for "equal protection of the
laws" for all Americans. To have a law ... MOREFred Barnes: Why Romney Will Win
Let us count the reasons Mitt Romney will win. The tie in the polls goes to the challenger. Here’s why: Enthusiasm. It matters enormously, and it’s
disproportionately on the Republican side, in good measure because of an
intense desire to defeat President Obama. True, enthusiasm doesn’t
guarantee an edge in turnout, but it’s ... MORE
