Government wants to dictate what people buy and sell. It's always curious to watch the champions of "choice" decide what choices to champion and what choices to dismiss for the common good. If you believe that the Obama administration's decision to force Catholic institutions to pay for and offer (directly or indirectly) products the church finds ...

Government wants to dictate what people buy and sell. It's always curious to watch the champions of "choice" decide what choices to champion and what choices to dismiss for the common good. If you believe that the Obama administration's decision to force Catholic institutions to pay for and offer (directly or indirectly) products the church finds ... MOREJohn Stossel: Never Trust Government Numbers
Big government rides on the wheels of deception. President Obama said in his State of the Union speech, "We've already agreed to more than $2 trillion in cuts and saving." That was reassuring. The new budget he released this week promises $4 trillion in "deficit reduction" — about half in tax increases and half in spending cuts. But like most politicians ... MORESteven Nelson: New York State Of Mind
Gun amnesty for criminals, felony charges for Marine. Ryan Jerome was arrested and charged with felony gun possession in September during a visit to New York, after unknowingly violating the state’s tough gun laws. As charges pend against the Indiana resident, real-life criminals are permitted to sell illegal weapons to the city for cash, no questions ... MORESteve Gunn: What Is Homeland Security Really Monitoring?
Government fears there is too much liberty in America. Here's some important news I wish you didn't have to read about because it might make you less likely to freely express your opinions. And when Americans no longer feel comfortable expressing opinions, our Constitution and way of life are clearly in peril. It's recently come to light that the U.S. ... MORELee DeCovnick: The Rising Fever Of Despotism

Total surveillance state is the path to total control. “To be governed is to be watched, inspected, spied upon, directed, law-driven, numbered, regulated, enrolled, indoctrinated, preached at, controlled, checked, estimated, valued, censured, commanded, by creatures who have neither the right nor the wisdom nor the virtue to do so. It is, under ... MOREDeneen Borelli: Why Voter ID Should Matter To All Of Us
What's more important than the integrity of the ballot box? The Rev. Jesse Jackson and other establishment civil rights leaders scolded South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley earlier this year on Martin Luther King Jr. Day no less, for her state’s voter identification law. They reminded her that her Indian ancestry (Gov. Haley's parents are from Amritsar in India’s ... MORETSA Recipe For Fun: Naked Body Scanner And A Cute Girl
Females are favorite TSA targets. Female passengers say they are being targeted by TSA screeners for sexual harassment, with one Texas woman being forced to pass through a naked body scanner three times so chuckling male TSA workers in a back room could get a good look at her “cute” figure. The incident occurred at DFW International Airport ... MOREErick Erickson: Rick Santorum Is A Pro-Life Statist
What a big government conservative looks like. I’m rather tired of all the people who don’t like Romney trying to claim Rick Santorum is not a big government conservative, or not a pro-life statist. I would support him before I would support Romney too, but I have no intention of giving up ideological and intellectual consistency in the name of beating ... MORE
