Help your student out. This time of year, as college students return home for the summer, many parents may notice how many politically correct ideas they have acquired on campus. Some of those parents may wonder how they can undo some of the brainwashing that has become so common in what are supposed to be institutions of higher ... MOREGarrett Quinn: The Free State Project Grows Up
Libertarians are changing the face of New Hampshire. In 2001 a Yale doctoral student named Jason Sorens published an essay in the small webzine The Libertarian Enterprise, lamenting the failure of libertarian efforts at the ballot box. “Nothing’s working,” he wrote, because libertarians are scattered.

Obama Scandals Bring MSNBC To 7-Year Low
by Dominic Patten. The scandals of the Obama administration seem to be hurting not just the White House but MSNBC as well, while Fox News Channel has just scored its second-best week of the year. After double-digit gains during last year’s presidential election, May 13-17 saw the progressive-aligned “Lean Forward” news network hit new lows ... MORECal Thomas: Tyranny Is No Longer 'Lurking'
It has become a fact of life. Given last week's revelation that the IRS targeted conservative groups seeking tax-exempt status, it's worth recalling President Obama's Ohio State University commencement address.

Bet on the barbarians. An all too familiar scene was enacted on the campus of Swarthmore College during a meeting on May 4th to discuss demands by student activists for the college to divest itself of its investments in companies that dealt in fossil fuels. As a speaker was beginning a presentation to show how many millions of dollars ... MORESheldon Richman: Abolish The IRS
(and the income tax with it) The Internal Revenue Service has been caught engaging in
political profiling while processing applications for tax-exempt
status. In this case it was against organizations with “tea-party”
or “patriot ” in their names and other right-wing groups. Next time
it could be libertarian or left-wing antiwar and
pro-civil-liberties ... MORE
