Walter E Williams: Our Deviant Society
Watch out for falling standards. Here's one usage of the term gentleman: The gentleman helped the fallen lady to her feet. Here's another, one we might hear from a newscaster or a police spokesman: Tonight we report on the arrest of two gentlemen who raped, sodomized and murdered an 80-year-old woman. During earlier times, to be c ... MORE
Sheldon Richman: Life Without FEMA?
There is a better way. Advocates of big government never miss a chance to capitalize on a natural disaster. Even before the storm has passed, they will boast that without activist government, recovery would be impossible. Peddlers of this line ask us to imagine what life would be like today—in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy—without FEMA and the ... MORE
Obama Proves Himself Unworthy As Commander-In-Chief
from the Las Vegas Review-Journal. U.S. Ambassador to Libya Chris Stevens and three other Americans died in a well-planned military assault on their diplomatic mission in Benghazi seven weeks ago, the anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. So why are details surfacing, piecemeal, only now? The Obama administration sat by doing ... MORE
Karin McQuillan: Why Obama Chose To Let Them Die
What if al-Qaeda is not "on the run?" The burning question is why Obama didn't give orders to defend our consulate and American lives in Benghazi. The answer is becoming clearer each time President Obama and Secretary of Defense Panetta issue a denial or explanation of their inaction. To the president's surprise, he chanced on an honest ... MOREMarijuana Legalization Could Cut Cartels' Earnings 30%
by E. Eduardo Castillo and Kristen Wyatt. A study released Wednesday by a respected Mexican think tank asserts
that proposals to legalize the recreational use of marijuana in
Colorado, Oregon and Washington could cut Mexican drug cartels' earnings
from traffic to the U.S. by as much as 30 percent. Opponents questioned some of ... MORECivic Duty Vies With Cynicism as 2012 Election Approaches
by Steven Greenhut. It’s been years since I cared deeply about any election, yet I
find myself back to old habits—tracking polls and dealing with
those conflicting feelings that emerge this time of year. My sense
of deep cynicism, born from years of reporting on government
venality and stupidity, collides with my sense of civic duty. Few people can ... MOREThe Choice -- Free Market Or Socialist-Driven Democracy
by Charles Krauthammer. "Ronald Reagan changed the trajectory of America in a way that Richard Nixon did not and in a way that Bill Clinton did not." That was Barack Obama in 2008. And he was right. Reagan was an ideological inflection point, ending a 50-year liberal ascendancy and beginning a 30-year conservative ascendancy. It is common for one ... MOREMatthew Yglesias: Why Price Gouging Is Necessary
Getting supply to where it is needed most. Some more words on price gouging, as New York and New Jersey are increasingly afflicted by gasoline shortages. There are three issues we need to look at here. One is allocation, one is short-term supply, and one is long-term supply. A lot of people seem to want to look at this purely as an allocative ... MOREAndrew Napolitano: Should You Vote For President?
Vote your conscience, don't waste it. Can you vote by not voting? In a presidential election year in which the critical issues have been how much personal behavior the federal government should regulate and how much private wealth it should transfer and consume, rather than whether it should do so, many folks who are fed up with what George W. Bush ... MOREDerek Robertson: Negative Versus Positive Rights
Just what is a "human right"? The phrase “healthcare is a human right” displays a profound ignorance of basic terminology, as well as a contradictory, self-imploding notion of what qualifies as a “right.” A poll once indicated that many Americans believe healthcare to indeed qualify as a right, probably mistaking themselves to possess compassion ...

John Stossel: Coulter Defends Romney
Her defense goes only so far. Mitt Romney tells people he won't fire federal workers or cut education spending. He says he'll spend more on the military. He sounds like a big-government guy. Or is he just pandering for votes? Ann Coulter came on my TV show to defend Romney. "What you call pandering is called getting elected," Coulter said. Romney says ... MOREIn Seattle, Nothing Says 'Liberal" Like Being Unarmed
by Dave Workman. If there were any lingering doubts about the City of Seattle being
the Evergreen State’s biggest liberal stronghold, they vanished Monday
with KIRO’s revealing report about concealed carry across Washington. As this column reported
the same day, there are more than 382,000 active concealed pistol
licenses in the state, according to ... MORE
Doug Doan: Homeland Security - What Next?
What we should do next. So far, none of the presidential candidates have mentioned much about Homeland Security. With so many other problems, issues surrounding how best to organize, manage and lead the vast DHS bureaucracy are just not that important. Too bad. I would have liked to see the candidates talk about what they might do. Here is an agenda ... MOREIoan Grillo: Hit Mexico's Cartels With Legalization
Death by prohibition. Whenever I’ve interviewed Mexican cartel killers, the aspect that I’ve found most disturbing about them is that they appear to be sane. Even though they have described to me such unfathomable actions as hacking off the heads of still-living victims, it is something other than mental illness that drives their violence. Their sanity is ... MOREPresident Obama Jabs At Ayn Rand, Knocks Himself Out
by Wendy Milling. In a recent interview with Rolling Stone, President Obama stated, “Ayn Rand is one of those things that a lot of us, when we were 17 or 18 and feeling misunderstood, we’d pick up.” I’m not trying to mock the President here – he is just repeating an old propaganda line that was hatched by Rand’s opponents – but I have to ask the “adults” ...

Dylan Scott: Pot Legalization Close To Passage In 2 States
The times they are a changin'. Barring an abrupt reversal in support among likely voters on Nov. 6,
at least two states will become the first to legalize marijuana for
recreational use. Colorado’s Amendment 64 would allow adults 21 and over to possess
marijuana and requires the state to license and regulate cultivation and
retail centers. In essence, ... MORE
