The nauseating hypocrisy of this guy is incredible. When caught red-handed by Breitbart, who tracked down a tip that Mark Kelly, former Rep. Gifford's husband purchased an "assault weapon," here's what the gun control advocate put on his Facebook page: I just had a background check a few days ago when I went to my local gun ...

Rand Paul: Rising In Defense Of The Constitution
Insisting on a meaningful Bill of Rights. On Wednesday, I rose to begin a filibuster on the nomination of John O. Brennan to be director of the CIA. I stood up with the intent of speaking until I was no longer able to speak. I vowed to speak as long as it took, until an alarm was sounded from coast to coast that our Constitution is important, that our rights to ... MORE

Brian Phillips: The Fallacy Of The 'Living Wage'
It strips some of the ability to make a living. If the advocates of the “living wage” are truly convinced that arbitrary government dictates have no detrimental consequences
on jobs, why don’t they advocate a “prosperity wage”? Instead of
legislating a wage that allows families to “get by,” why don’t they
legislate a wage that allows families to prosper? In other ... MORERichard E. Ralston: The Hydra Of Government Medicine
Only the right principles can save us. We value physicians for their ability to optimize the length and quality of our lives. They value treating and preventing illness, relieving pain and curing disease. Yet the relationship between doctors and patients is increasingly under attack by a relentless government. A hydra-headed monster of multiple ... MOREDomestic Drones To Hunt Gun Carriers In America For DHS
by Cheryl K. Chumley. The Department of Homeland Security has an unmanned drone fleet with technology that can root out civilians who are carrying guns, government documents show. “I am very concerned that this technology will be used against law-abiding American firearms owners,” said Alan Gottlieb, founder of the Second Amendment ...

Erik Rush: The Rise Of America's Gestapo
The enemies of the Constitution. On March 4, despite hundreds of Coloradans flooding the State Capitol in Denver and honking horns on the streets that encircle the building all day long, and the presence of 25 county sheriffs opposed to seven Democratic gun-control proposals, the measures all passed the Colorado House along party-line votes. ... MOREBrian Domitrovic: The Sequester That Saved The Economy
Remember stimulus spending? That’s the stuff that the government is supposed to come up with when the economy goes into recession. The idea is that since government expenditures are one part of overall economic output, when private activity wanes, aggregate output, or “GDP” can be maintained. It’s intriguing as a theory, perhaps, but in ... MOREIf You're Reading This, You're Surviving The Sequester Cuts
by John Stossel. That may surprise you, since President Obama likened the sequester to taking a "meat cleaver" to government, causing FBI agents to be furloughed, prosecutors to let criminals escape and medical research to grind to a halt! The media hyped it, too. The NBC Nightly News said, "The sequester could cripple air travel, force ... MORE

Robert Higgs: Don't Rely On A Quack Doctor
Some prescriptions can have adverse actions. A man goes to his doctor for a routine checkup. The doctor performs a perfunctory examination and informs him that unless he receives an experimental treatment the doctor has devised, he will soon become disabled. “What’s it cost, Doc?” the man asks. “Well, unfortunately it’s not cheap, ...

Andrew Napolitano: The Right To Self-Defense
To right to self-protect preceded government. In all the noise caused by the Obama administration's direct assault on the right of every person to keep and bear arms, the essence of the issue has been drowned out. The president and his big-government colleagues want you to believe that only the government can keep you free and safe, so to them, ... MORE
Guy F. Caruso: Recognizing America's New Energy Reality
Energy trade, not restrictions/taxes, will advance growth. In less than a decade, the role of unconventional oil and gas has dramatically changed the energy outlook in the United States. Over the next 20 years, US natural gas and coal exports will increase and oil imports will decline steadily. Abundant domestic energy can be a huge driver of the ... MORERed State: Political Correctness, Bullying And Other BS
Some lessons need to be learned: You can tell your child a million times, “don’t touch the stove, it’s hot,” or you can tell them once, let them touch it, and they quickly figure it out. Some will think I am evil, but the fact is it’s effective. Choices are a part of life; the wrong ones will burn you. Traditionally in America, we have always tried to make ... MOREAmy Payne: Busting 5 Myths About The Minimum Wage
It hurts, not helps, low-skill workers. When someone says “minimum wage,” what comes to mind? Do you think of teenagers flipping burgers? Or a single parent trying to feed several kids? While President Obama and other proponents of a higher minimum wage
want you to visualize that single parent, the truth is that a
burger-flipping ... MOREU.N. Pushes Efforts To Force Pot Criminalization In U.S.
Just how sovereign are we? A United Nations-based drug agency urged the United States government on Tuesday to challenge the legalization of marijuana for recreational use in Colorado and Washington, saying the state laws violate international drug treaties. The International Narcotics Control Board made its appeal in an annual drug report. ... MOREGene Healy: Washington, DC, Capital Of The Absurd
Why the nation's capital is a clown show. Like most of this company town, I'm addicted to Netflix's Beltway "telenovela," House of Cards, starring Kevin Spacey as a conspiratorial House majority whip. But the show unwittingly flatters D.C., depicting a city of ruthless, steely competence. The real thing is a clown show consumed by ... MOREThe Architects Of The American Police State
John W. Whitehead on the U.S. Supreme Court. “The unspoken power dynamics in a police/civilian encounter will generally favor the police, unless the civilian is a local sports hero, the mayor, or a giant who is impervious to bullets.”—Journalist Justin Peters From time to time throughout history, individuals have been subjected to charges ...
