Both Mitt and Newt have supported individual mandate. Once the presidential nomination process is settled—and Lord knows that day can't come fast enough—Republicans will get back to doing what they do best, getting on Barack Obama's case. Incredibly, though, they'll have to do it without one of their most potent arguments. The Republican ... MOREDavid Harsanyi: The GOP's ObamaCare Problem
Both Mitt and Newt have supported individual mandate. Once the presidential nomination process is settled—and Lord knows that day can't come fast enough—Republicans will get back to doing what they do best, getting on Barack Obama's case. Incredibly, though, they'll have to do it without one of their most potent arguments. The Republican ... MORELee Moran: Police Terrorize Citizen With Gestapo Tactics
FBI chainsaws through front door; storm wrong house. Bungling FBI agents held a terrified mother at gunpoint for 30 minutes after chainsawing their way into her home - before realising they had raided the wrong address. Officers stormed into Judy Sanchez's Fitchburg, Massachusetts, apartment at 6.04am on January 26 after using the ... MORETheodore B. Olson: Obama's Enemies List
Private citizens have become targets for White House attacks. How would you feel if aides to the president of the United States singled you out by name for attack, and if you were featured prominently in the president's re-election campaign as an enemy of the people? What would you do if the White House engaged in derogatory speculative innuendo ... MORE
Herbert London: The Fraud In Our Entitlement System
Government "soft" money has plenty of takers. Though some might still deny it, there is growing bipartisan belief that our nation's level of indebtedness is unsustainable. How we reduce the debt burden is another matter; this is where political knives are sharpened. Yet there is one uncontroversial issue that could result in dramatic savings and ... MORE
VIDEO: Nanny Of The Month Winner For January 2012
Perhaps LA Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa should use condoms on taxpayers.
Doug Giles: 13 Politically Incorrect Gun Rules
Guns have only two enemies, rust and politicians. Gun lovers. Herewith are thirteen things to remember when carrying your weapon. BTW- this list is not original. I’ve Google up the bullet points but alas …I got nada in regards to who penned it. If and when someone schools me on who the author is you can rest assure that I’ll give him or her proper praise. Enjoy. ... MOREGene Healy: The TSA's War On Innocent Travelers
Even though the threat of terrorism has diminished. "Rand Paul has got to be on the 'Top 10 People TSA Would Be Smart to Leave Alone' list," National Review's Jonah Goldberg tweeted when news broke of the senator's run-in with the Transportation Security Administration at Nashville International Airport last week. Kentucky's junior senator missed his ... MOREBarry Farber: The Marx Brothers - Karl And Groucho
Both of America’s political parties are Marxist. The Democrats are Karl. The Republicans are Groucho. I’m weary of dear friends who’ve been reading political tea leaves, wind currents and baked turtle shells for decades now suddenly wailing in despair that the Republican Party is gift-wrapping the November election and handing it over to the Obama ...

John Stossel: Policing The World
Can a debtor nation afford to police the world? With an election approaching and at least some Americans upset about irresponsible spending, the president has finally expressed a political interest in cutting something. He says the Pentagon will spend "only" $525 billion next year. That's slightly less than the current $531 billion. A cut is good, but this will barely ... MOREA. Barton Hinkle: The Glories Of Capitalism
The free market delivers. The glories of free-market capitalism are capacious. It has lifted hundreds of millions of people from bare subsistence to astonishing wealth. It has given us life-saving medical marvels, grocery shelves groaning with plenty, and phones that let you dial long-distance in the middle of a cornfield. But its glories are not limitless. And .... MOREM. Catharine Evans: Big Media Covering Up Fast & Furious?
The wagons circle around Obama and Holder. Where was the public outcry for justice when Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry bled to death at the hands of a drug cartel in cahoots with the U.S. government? It happens in the Peck Canyon corridor northwest of Nogales, Arizona -- nowhere. The general public didn't hear about it. It's been one year and two months since ... MOREKarin Agness: Why Ron Paul Appeals To Young Voters
A champion of free enterprise and limited government. The first primaries of 2012 are complete, but the fight over the proper role of government continues. The question before GOP primary voters is who best reflects their own answer to that question, and then, who is best suited to make that case to the American people? A clear winner has yet to ... MOREBLOOMBERG: Farmers Making $100 Billion Get Subsidies
A perverse system of misguided incentives. Imagine an industry on a roll. Its income surpassed the $100 billion mark last year for the first time. On top of these riches, those in the business got an additional $25 billion or so in federal handouts. The 1 percenters of Wall Street? Not even close. The beneficiaries are America’s farmers, or to be more ... MOREIBD Editorial: When Global Warming Freezes Over
Alarmists have looked foolish for quite some time now. Global warming alarmists won't give up their campaign to spread fear and backward thinking until an ice bridge stretches from New York to Paris. Science, though, says they should. Al Gore, who invented global warming hysteria, has most recently been found planning a trip to Antarctica where he will ... MOREMike Riggs: Gary Johnson Braves The ACLU
Libertarian candidate charms civil libertarians. On January 29 the Miami Herald ran a full-page ad excoriating Newt Gingrich and Mitt Romney for their “abysmal” constitutional records. The ad wasn’t paid for by Ron Paul or his supporters, but by the American Civil Liberties Union, which invited the GOP field to its annual staff convention in Orlando to “face the ... MOREFrank Girardo: California, The Golden Police State
Guess that's why we have Nevada. I'm going to qualify this entire column by stating unequivocally that I don't know what political views my 13-year-old son Thomas might have. I know where he stands on the NFL, being an eighth grader, math and roller coasters - but not politics. Which is fine by me. That said, he made some interesting observations - ... MOREThomas Sowell: Getting Nowhere, Very Fast
A spending spree with other people's money. California has a huge state deb and Washington has a huge national debt. But that does not discourage either Governor Jerry Brown or President Barack Obama from wanting to launch a very costly high-speed rail system. Most of us might be a little skittish about spending money if we were teetering on the ... MOREVIDEO: Bill Whittle Explains THE VOTE PUMP
Did you know government spends $2.2 trillion a year on vote buying?
