Why President Obama must claim executive privilege over Fast and Furious.
Should We Hire Even More Teachers, Cops And Fireman?
by Nick Gillespie. Though it feels like it was about a thousand years ago, it was only a couple of weeks back that President Barack Obama announced that the private sector was "doing fine" and that it was the public sector that really needed a helping hand getting through this furshlugginer economy. Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney bravely critiqued his ... MOREJim Wilson: Is Gun Control Just Another Petty Tyranny?
Where do you draw the line? I’m not a big gun control fan or advocate. I’ve joked on this blog that I live in a state where the second is the only amendment that matters.

MOREDavid Limbaugh: An Arrogant And Lawless Cover-Up

Lou Rom: Jury Nullification In The Roger Clemens Verdict?
Perhaps a protest against minutia. The Rocket launched another unbelievable shutout Monday, leaving federal prosecutors holding their bats in disbelief at the end of a costly, drawn-out perjury trial. A day after the verdict, the consensus is that Clemens' acquittal doesn't mean he's innocent, but rather that the jury was unconvinced of his guilt ... MORE
Jonathan Hoenig: The Economic Police State
When the economy is not free, neither are you. Taking a page from the United States, Argentina announced plans last week to stimulate its stagnant economy with no-cost housing loans. The idea is to boost growth by intervening in the supposedly "free" economy. It won't work. Japan's decades of infrastructure spending, government- ... MORE
