Official: Dissent Now Unpatriotic

You all know the drill. The recent vague and controversial DHS report on right-wing extremism, the cover of which DHS might just as well have put on the Republican Party platform. The endless puerile teabagging jokes from the fourth estate’s

Holding The High Watch

Do not rage against corrupt politicians; if it were not for politicians we should fall into anarchy, and your opportunity will be wasted. God has worked a long time and very patiently to bring us up to where we are

We Must Protect the 'Shining City'

With Washington and Hollywood acting with one unified radically liberal voice for the first time in American history, it’s become crystal clear that what the Democrats really want is simply to rule the world. It was reported recently that box

An Argument for States Rights

Relax…this is not another NAMBLA story but give me a break. If you spent three years infiltrating a group of pedophiles you’d have a few stories serving as life lessons. NAMBLA has a magazine but not a centerfold. If they

Is There No Place For Aging Propagandists To Go?

I watched the Presidential news conference last night and perhaps the most striking thing I learned was that there is apparently some sort of assisted-care shortage in America. I figured that out when I saw Helen Thomas there in the

Dreaming Of President Petraeus And An American surge

This week’s Washington Times column: America is in a crisis of its own making. Not only are we realizing that our banking system and our core infrastructure are broken, and that our primary checks and balances (Congress, the media, etc.)

Congress Acts Swiftly!

I notice that the House acted swiftly to tax the AIG bonuses. (And at 90% — wow…seems a bit steep, but hey – taxation as a means of punishment is a time-honored tradition amongst the Left.) Because earlier they had

AFTRA: Card Check This!

I’m a member of two performing arts unions. I pay dues to two organizations that actively support efforts to influence producers to hire fewer actors of my gender and race. They also spend millions of my dollars supporting candidates and

The Obama Presidency: Another Lousy Remake

Mr. President, the fact that you and your party spent the better part of 8 years systematically and falsely tearing down the presidency of George W. Bush to seize this moment of power is reflective of the fact that your

Sunday Matineé: 1776

March 16 will mark the 40th anniversary of the Broadway opening of “1776.” Written by Sherman Edwards and Peter Stone, it went on to run for 1,217 performances. It’s hard to believe that forty years ago it was still popular

Source: Obama Taps Sebelius for HHS Secretary

USA Today: Politico, which says it got its information from a “senior administration official,” writes that “Obama will introduce Sebelius Monday afternoon at the White House. … He begins his push for a health-care overhaul in earnest Thursday with a

Breaking Down Barack

Ever since Bill Clinton gave us the greatest insight into the modern political mind with the words, “It depends on what the meaning of ‘is’ is,” it has become important for the intelligent citizen to closely parse all political speech.

Obama Sends 'Hard Choices' Budget To Congress

President Barack Obama is sending Congress a budget that would boost taxes on the wealthy and slash Medicare to make way for a $634 billion down payment on universal health care. Obama’s first budget predicts the deficit for this year

Hollywood Bailout, Take Two

Like many of you, I was an enthusiastic supporter of President Obama’s economic stimulus plan before I had even read it. Come to think of it, so was he. Now I’m no economist, but when you’re faced with both soaring

OPM – The Socialist Drug of Choice

When it comes to the wit and wisdom of Karl Marx, it’s likely that his most quoted statement is, “Religion is the opiate of the masses.” The perverse irony in that quote is that all of Marx’s pseudo-scientific philosophical and
