Was conservative activist Andrew Breitbart murdered? It is possible and the issue must be raised for one reason only: Because knowing the malicious temperament of the radical left in America that hated Breitbart, we should not rule out that they killed him. Breitbart is reported to have been suffering a heart condition over the last few years and he lived a highly stressful life. And | Read More »
There’s a comedy sketch from the 1990s about a male character who stops having sex and becomes a scholar as a result, while a female who starts to have more and more sex becomes an intellectual vegetable. And don’t go thinking that this is funny. If you want to know why our society at its height of prosperity, opportunity and advanced technology has fallen off | Read More »
E-mails recently released by the state of Alaska from the tenure of Republican governor Sarah Palin expose a coordinated assault on her from the Democrat left.

Mitt Romney won the Arizona GOP primary handily and won the Michigan primary by a small margin. Romney should have won Michigan by a larger margin. He was born in and grew up in Michigan, and his father George once was CEO of American Motors who then became governor of Michigan. Romney said after the win that “I’m going to deliver on more jobs, less | Read More »
The American economy today is in a ‘death spiral’. It can be fixed with the right policies, although the Democrats are doing everything they can to force us down this dead-end road. They wish to stall the economy so that the federal government gets more and more power through dependence and the private sector loses most of its power. It is classic socialism.

Well, here we go again. An uprising and subsequent government crackdown in Syria are being seen as an opportunity to “liberate” another Middle Eastern nation from an authoritarian regime, this one run by the al-Assad family. But America should keep out of Syrian affairs. From Iraq to Syria to Libya to Egypt, all of these nations were better off before the US and the ‘world | Read More »
Presidential candidate Rick Santorum said this in 2008 to students at Ave Maria University in Florida: “satan has his sights on the United States of America …satan is attacking the great institutions of America, using those great vices of pride, vanity, and sensuality as the root to attack all of the strong plants that has so deeply rooted in the American tradition… This is a | Read More »
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has approved licenses to build two new nuclear reactors, the first reactors authorized since 1978.

September 17, 1796 Friends, and Fellow-Citizens: The period for a new election of a Citizen, to Administer the Executive government of the United States, being not far distant, and the time actually arrived, when your thoughts must be employed in designating the person, who is to be cloathed with that important trust, it appears to me proper, especially as it may conduce to a more | Read More »
Can former US senator Rick Santorum, who is perceived as a strong conservative, win the White House in November if he becomes the GOP nominee? Yes, certainly, he is electable. To get a perspective, look at the 2008 election. We had a Republican president in George W. Bush with a wildly unpopular Iraq war and then, just as the election loomed, an economic collapse. We | Read More »

In an essay called ‘We the people’ loses appeal with people around the world, nytimes.com reporter Adam Liptak said that the US Constitution is falling out of favor around the globe.

Barack Obama is expected to call for a reduction in the 35% corporate tax rate to a rate closer to that of other industrialized nations, probably in the high 20s. So what is going on here?

(Today is Valentine’s Day. This is an editorial that I wrote about an incident that happened on Valentine’s Day 2007 aboard a JetBlue flight. It is still timely today.) It was wickedly cold again this year, right on schedule, one of the worst winters ever: Ice storms in the Southeast, frozen orchards in California, ten feet of snow in Upstate New York, record low temps | Read More »
It’s just amazing to listen to people on the political left in the wake of the ObamaCare demand, now withdrawn in its original form, that would have forced many Catholic institutions to provide abortion and birth control coverage in their health plans. Liberals are anti-life to the core. For instance, they want unfettered access to abortion. And after saying for decades that a new fetus | Read More »

Tens of millions of Catholics across America are outraged over new ObamaCare regulations that will force religious institutions like Catholic schools, charities and hospitals to provide birth-control pills, abortion-producing drugs and sterilization coverage in their health plans for employees. The requirement does not currently apply to churches themselves. Failure to provide the plans would result in large fines being levied by the federal government. More | Read More »
If you were raised in the 1960s and 1970s, you heard about ‘energy scarcity’ right from the start. Certain groups with a bias against our advanced lifestyle and our economic success fed us the myth that our carbon fuels of coal, natural gas and oil are “limited” or “scarce” or “disappearing”. One of the eco-shibboleths most often promulgated was, and is, the myth of ‘peak | Read More »
Republicans and conservatives are worrying themselves silly over every word uttered in the primaries and about the electability of a candidate to represent our interests. To which Nikitas3 says: Chill out, folks. The election is nine months away. And while this concern is certainly part of the territory, it masks the intense worry on the Democrat side which is worse than on our side. And | Read More »
