Bloated governor decries selfishness. Leaders from New Jersey and New York blew up yesterday after House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) postponed a vote on an aid package related to Hurricane Sandy. But the bill is so loaded with pork projects that these officials should consider directing their anger at the Obama Administration, which is ... MOREAmy Payne: Uproar Over Bloated Sandy Aid Package
Bloated governor decries selfishness. Leaders from New Jersey and New York blew up yesterday after House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) postponed a vote on an aid package related to Hurricane Sandy. But the bill is so loaded with pork projects that these officials should consider directing their anger at the Obama Administration, which is ... MOREIra Stoll: Obama's Crony Capitalism
Granting favor to the few. On the Friday before Christmas, President Obama announced that
he was appointing Mohamed A. El-Erian, the CEO of Pacific
Investment Management Company, as the chairman of his Global
Development Council. The announcement didn’t get much attention, but it should. It
exemplifies what’s wrong with Obama’s approach to ... MOREThomas Sowell - The Role Of 'Educators'
Indoctrination skills on parade. Many years ago, as a young man, I read a very interesting book about
the rise of the Communists to power in China. In the last chapter, the
author tried to explain why and how this had happened. Among the factors he cited were the country's educators. That struck
me as odd, and not very plausible, at the time. ... MORE
Ralph R. Reiland: The Cliffs Of 1984
“Slavery Is Freedom” and “Tax Hikes Are Tax Relief.” So we didn’t go over the fiscal cliff and instead got a deal that delivers no cuts in government spending, raises taxes on “the rich” (the definition of which consistently changes), expands the size and role of government, keeps the red ink flowing at record levels, and provides ... MOREWashington Times: EPA's Chilling Effect
Alaskan liberty goes up in smoke under new air regs. Not-so-unintended consequences of overregulation are in the air. Newly adopted rules limiting airborne soot imposed by bureaucrats in Washington threaten to freeze the choices — and toes — of individuals living more than 4,000 miles away in subarctic Alaska. ... MOREYael Ossowski: How Walt Disney Cashes In On Welfare
Why are taxpayers picking up the tab for Mickey Mouse? Since his first appearance in the 1928 animated short
Steamboat Willy, there has been no greater American
ambassador than Mickey Mouse, the cartoon character who sparked the
launch of the media empire of the Walt Disney Co. Generations of children and adults worldwide have grown ... MORE
Katie Kieffer: Five Good Men
There are a few good men. And, by "a few," I mean five. Certainly there are far more than five good men in America. But in the U.S. Senate, there are just five moral Republicans. Who am I referring to? Let me introduce you to the five men in the Senate who stood their ground while their Republican peers (save two abstainers) voted for a fiscal cliff ... MORE
Damon's Anti-Fracking Movie Financed By Oil-Rich Arabs
Lachlan Markay on an inconvenient truth. A new film starring Matt Damon presents American oil and natural gas
producers as money-grubbing villains purportedly poisoning rural
American towns. It is therefore of particular note that it is financed
in part by the royal family of the oil-rich United Arab Emirates. The creators of Promised ... MOREObama Supporters Shocked, Angry At New Tax Increases
by Joseph Curl. Sometimes, watching a Democrat learn something is wonderful, like seeing the family dog finally sit and stay at your command. With President Obama back in office and his life-saving “fiscal cliff” bill jammed through Congress, the new year has brought a surprising turn of events for his sycophantic supporters. ... MORE
