It’s official. I have returned to my Liberal roots, and have chosen to embrace Liberalism as I did from birth until 1994. It makes no sense to fight the tsunami of government anymore, and the truth is, Liberals have had
From the Associated Press: SAN DIEGO — The Navy is considering naming a cargo ship that’s being built after farmworker activist Cesar Chavez. James Gill, a spokesman for General Dynamics NASSCO in San Diego, said Monday the company suggested the
God knows I’ve criticized Rachel Maddow before. She’s trite, pretentious, and smug, a female version of Jon Stewart without any of the charm. Like Obama, the left loves her largely because of her constant aura of pedantry – do you
Recently immediately after Congressman Darrell Issa finished giving a speech from the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives, I caught up with him for his most recent comments on the investigation into the ATF gunwalking scandal known as Projects

Earlier this year, under the title “Who Needs Congress: Legislation by Regulatory Fiat,” we expressed concern that the Obama Administration was moving to checkmate the 2010 Republican electoral sweep by getting its acolytes and bureaucrats in the regulatory agencies, which
Even the most avid circus goers tire of the big top, apparently. Saturday, various labor and left wing organizations attempted to hold another massive protest at the Wisconsin State Capitol. [youtube UX_Q0a4pUyU] The lackluster May Day rallies in Milwaukee and
On his Wednesday show, Adam Carolla interviewed Andrew Breitbart to discuss Andrew’s new book, Righteous Indignation. Let me assure you, you’ll LOVE this duo. Andrew’s been a guest on Carolla’s show before, but this was hands down the most entertaining

With Chicago sitting in the heart the nation, and literally being the den of the progressive movement, is it any wonder that it is also known as the birthplace of the international labor and worker’s rights movement? If you were
Last week, my organization praised the Indiana lawmakers for passing some of the nation’s most significant education reforms. In one of Education Action Group’s weekly newsletters, we said that Indiana’s new voucher program and its decision to lift the cap
Several current and prior Connecticut Republican lawmakers have joined the Roger Sherman Liberty Center, a conservative think tank, in a lawsuit against Governor Dannel Malloy and Democratic state leaders. The suit challenges the constitutionality of the new budget, passed last
Consider the following statement: “The National Education Association’s decision on Friday to begin the formal process of endorsing President Barack Obama’s re-election campaign may be the most vivid demonstration to date of the political benefits of the stimulus package passed
Update: The Navy has reversed itself, for now, on this issue, pending a legal review. When the Massachusetts Supreme Court imposed same-sex marriage on that state in 2003, leftist groups around the country rejoiced in the so-called “equality” that had
(And we do not mean this august publication.) John Donne famously said no man is an island. He didn’t live to see the Media Marxists and their absurd policy positions. These Leftist alleged media “reformers” incessantly demand massive government insertion
Did Wisconsin Secretary of State Doug La Follette lie to the Associated Press, the MacIver Institute, the public, or some combination of the three? On February 11, Wisconsin Scott Walker introduced his budget repair bill, which aimed to close a

Detroit used to be a city that conjured up visions of American greatness, of American ingenuity. Automakers like Chrysler, Chevrolet, and Ford placed their stamp upon that city and Americans were proud to buy (and drive) the cars built there
Four months ago, AOL gave to Arianna Huffington $315 million and the keys to its news operations as part of their purchase of her progressive internet behemoth. At the time I contended that the most significant news property to be
Why the left-wing blogs are wrong. Several serious allegations are being leveled at Andrew Breitbart. Amusingly, these complaints are even taking shape as a verb: to be “Breitbarted” is to be maligned unfairly with “selectively-edited” video that is taken out
Activists in the Lake County Tea Party have received over 300 pages of email correspondence between school officials via FOIA. The emails uncover appalling actions by these officials. The following from Paul Mitchell at the Lake County Tea Party exposes
Only in Washington would running out of money and prematurely limiting a program be considered a success. This Friday (May 6,) Obamacare’s first handout program will cease accepting new applications, but not before billions of dollars have been redistributed or
