by Baylen Linnekin. The Farm Bill, that quintessentially quinquennial congressional replenishment of the pork trough from which many of America’s farmers indulge, is now upon us. Late last month the bill, dubbed the Agriculture Reform, Food and Jobs Act of 2012, cleared what will likely be its biggest hurdle when the bipartisan Senate Agriculture ... MOREWashington Times: More TSA Lies
Obnoxious agency caught fibbing to Congress again. Frequent flyers are no fans of the Transportation Security Administration (TSA). The blue-gloved bureaucrats are experts in making trips to the airport as unpleasant as possible. As a joint congressional panel revealed Wednesday, the agency’s biggest failing is its inability to grope the truth. ... MOREJay Ambrose: Some Still Stand Up For Free Speech
Even when unpleasant truths are not sugar coated. Leftists are killing free speech by calling disagreements hate speech and finding ways to intimidate even those who facilitate debate.

They didn’t stop and think about whether a one-and-a-half year old posed a security threat, or whether it could possibly be a ... MOREMichael Flood McNulty: Obama Wants UN Gun Control
A backdoor attempt to impose gun right restrictions. Kansas Senator Jerry Moran introduced legislation to prohibit the Obama administration from negotiating away our gun rights as part of the UN Arms Trade Treaty (ATT).

Remember what produces our high standard of life. I was recently asked to deliver a lecture about the virtues of capitalism, entrepreneurship, and the rules of business success at Harvard University. I am thrilled to report that capitalism and entrepreneurship are alive, well, and still celebrated — even at one of the world’s greatest ... MOREAndrew Napolitano: What Constitutes A Fair Trial?
Hard questions and inconvenient truths. The trial of the alleged masterminds of 9/11, which began last week at the U.S. Naval Base in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, will address some of the most profound issues of our era. Are natural rights truly inalienable, as Thomas Jefferson wrote in the Declaration of Independence, or can the government take them ... MORE
