In response to Politico’s Dylan Byers Plays Goalie Against Obama’s Ukraine Critics: This might be the first time I’ve seen a pack of straw men pick up and move goalposts.  What a completely idiotic last-ditch defense of Obama’s catastrophic foreign

Barack Obama sounds like he’s just a few desperate days away from hosting late-night infomercials to hawk ObamaCare.  Maybe he can take over the TV time slots vacated by Kevin Trudeau, who just got the book thrown at him for

Each passing day sees more resistance to the Obama Administration’s announced handover of Internet domain supervision to an as-yet undetermined global agency.  There’s still plenty of support for the move as well, but the pendulum seems to be swinging against

The Big Bang must have been a hell of a show.  It’s difficult for the human mind to comprehend the energies unleashed over an incredibly brief window of time.  Most pop-culture and educational film depictions of the event show a

In response to Straw Polls Are A Farce: I completely agree, David, but I’m afraid straw polls are here to stay.  For one thing, there’s an endless supply of young people and political newcomers who can still be impressed by

Putting the word “Rise” in a movie title is usually the kiss of death as far as quality is concerned, with the notable exception of “Rise of the Planet of the Apes.”  In the case of the “300” sequel, we

Great news!  After just three short years and one missed election, Tea Party Patriots finally got their official response from the IRS Tax Exempt Organizations division!  The speed, efficiency, and honesty of the second-most-powerful agency in our titanic mega-government are

The U.S. government is going to surrender its oversight role over the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) sometime in late 2015, according to an announcement on Friday evening.  ICANN is the organization that sets up Web addresses,

Everything about ObamaCare is wrapped in lies, evasions, and obfuscation.  Fox Mulder and Dana Scully never had to go through this many layers of cover-up to get at the truth.   That’s true of the state exchanges as well as

Dan Calabrese at the Detroit News lays into the media organs that helped Democrats paint cancer patient Julie Boonstra as a liar for complaining about ObamaCare, recalling an earlier age when the media afflicted the powerful with tough questions, rather

I’ve been highly skeptical of electric cars in the past, not because I have any problem with the cars or anyone who wants to drive them, but because of all the compulsory tax money forced into the programs.  The Chevy

Ed Morrissey of Hot Air wrote a column for The Week in which he quite literally “harrumphs” at the excessive nudity on pay cable television: Nudity in film and its effects on society have been debated since film began, and

Remember when Barack Obama used to boast that Affordable Care Act plans would be cheaper than cable-TV or cell phone service?  It wasn’t that long ago.  “For a lot of people, it will be cheaper than your cell phone bill,”

In response to Senate Dems Pulling an All Nighter To Draw Attention To Climate Change: Mark Steyn had a great riff on this farce when he guest-hosted for Rush Limbaugh yesterday.  (He also wrote it up at his website here.)

It’s been a couple of days since HBO aired the finale of “True Detective,” but just in case you haven’t seen it yet, be warned there are spoilers below.  Click away now to remain unspoiled! : : : : :

Vladimir Putin isn’t the only one who can slip a few armed men across an inconvenient border.  Buzzfeed has a big story about a possible Mexican Army incursion into Arizona.  It’s a big enough deal to have Senator Tom Coburn

Hey, didn’t their used to be a determined group of international activists who thought land mines were a crime against humanity, given their propensity for causing civilian collateral damage, sometimes long after the conflict has ended? What are those folks

During their CPAC 2014 speeches, both Mike Huckabee and Ralph Reed mentioned the importance of religious faith to the American understanding of liberty.  The ongoing assault against freedom of conscience – and it is an assault, deliberate and strategic –
