Ralph R. Reiland: Back When Democrats Knew Economics
Who warned us about big government spending? Eleven months before he was assassinated as he rode with his
wife in the back seat of an open convertible in a motorcade through
downtown Dallas, President John F. Kennedy delivered a major address to the Economic Club of New York at the Waldorf-Astoria
Hotel on December 14, 1962. ... MORES. Fred Singer: Obama's EPA Plans For 2013
The green vision to trump private property rights. The November elections will determine the direction of US climate policy -- and therefore also energy policy and the pace of economic growth: jobs, standards of living, budget deficits and inflation. Obama has already promised to make climate change the centerpiece of his concern -- with all that ... MOREGALLUP: Michelle No More Successful Than Barack
Obesity is up in nearly all age groups since 2008. Americans in nearly every age group today are more likely to be obese than those same age groups were four years ago. Obesity is up the most among older adults. For example, 14.4% of 84- to 87-year-olds are obese today, up from 12.2% in 2008. Obesity remains most prevalent in middle age. ... MOREWhy Obama's Libya Actions Should Cost Him The Election
by Andrew Napolitano. The final presidential debate earlier this week was a tailor-made opportunity for Mitt Romney to rip into President Obama's inconsistent, value-free and at times incoherent foreign policy. And it was also an opportunity for the president to explain his administration's material misrepresentations on the murders of our ambassador and others ... MORERadley Balko: Bad Cops, Drug Dogs And Asset Forfeiture
Three ingredients that make for a toxic brew. Last December, filmmaker Terrance Huff and
his friend Jon Seaton were returning to Ohio after attending a "Star
Trek" convention in St. Louis. As they passed through a small town in
Illinois, a police officer, Michael Reichert, pulled Huff's red PT
Cruiser over to the side of the road, allegedly for an unsafe ... MOREJohn Fund: When Political Speech Comes Under Fire
What if the truth is politically incorrect? This month an unnamed private family foundation, apparently concerned with the integrity of elections, paid for 145 billboards in Ohio and Wisconsin. The boards featured a picture of a judge’s gavel and a simple message: “Voter Fraud Is a Felony — up to 3½ years and a $10,000 fine.” That’s it. ... MORE
Douglas French: Can Jury Slaves Say What's True?
Getting a taste of our jury system. Until last week, I had managed all of my adult life to avoid jury duty. As a young adult in Topeka, Kan., I was never summoned. For my two decades living in Las Vegas, I was able to call in a couple times declaring economic hardship. Most of the time, I seemed to be off their radar screen. I always suspected it was ... MOREJanice Green: Free Enterprise Is Ultimate Empowerment
The power to prosper. I have, earlier in my life, been simultaneously a
student, mother, employee, chauffeur, and
jack-of-all-family-related-trades, so I know how difficult it can be to
attend to all issues during a campaign season. However, it is especially concerning to me to hear women,
especially young women, announcing their intentions to ... MOREPaul Driessen: EPA Anti-Energy Regulations Killing Jobs
Bogus green schemes harm Americans. More and more, daily decisions are made less by responsible citizens
than by nanny-state government, especially powerful, unelected,
unaccountable executive branch agencies in Washington. Among the worst
is the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Under Administrator Lisa P. Jackson, EPA ... MOREJohn Stossel: Greed
Inequality is a product of freedom. On TV, my Fox colleague Bill O'Reilly says, "The recession was brought on largely by greedy Wall Street corporations." Give me a break. Bill's smart. If he believes such things, we who care about freedom have done a poor job communicating economics. Blaming problems on "greed" is a mindless cliche. ... MORE
