ATF Publishes Misleading Trace Data From Mexico
ATF is counting stolen guns, guns sold to foreign
governments by Federal Firearms Licensees under the approval of the
State Department and guns ATF and DOJ purposely sent into Mexico through
Operation Fast and Furious as “guns being traced back to the U.S.”
Michelle Malkin:
"Crucify Them": The Obama Way
One of President Obama's radical eco-bureaucrats has
apologized for confirming an indelible truth: This White House treats
politically incorrect private industries as public enemies who deserve
regulatory death sentences.
Brent Bozell:
Glee Celebrates the 'T'

school shared that he was born in the wrong body.
Jonah Goldberg:
My Papers? No Thank You
With the Supreme Court taking up Arizona's "show me
your papers" immigration law, we're once again thrust into a useful
debate over the role of the government and the obligations of the
citizen -- and non-citizen. Rather than come at it from the usual angle,
I thought I'd try something different.
John Ransom:
Another Excuse from Both Ways Barack
Obviously the Commerce Department doesn’t talk to the
Bureau of Labor Statistics, the government brain trust responsible for
the magical- and only mathematical- drop in
unemployment
over the last several months. And don’t worry: no humans were actually
employed in the creation of the declining unemployment report.
Mike Adams:
Elderly Woman Behind the Counter in a Small Town
One afternoon I stopped by the bank to make a few
deposits. I was in a rush and needed to get in and out as soon as
possible. I had places to go and things I had to do.
John Hawkins:
Seven Of The Most Disturbing Quotes From Members Of The Obama Administration
Birds of a feather flock together and so when we see
Barack Obama stacking his cabinet with radicals, it tells us a lot about
his mentality. Of course, the fact that his entire term in office has
been nothing but a slow motion evisceration of the American dream should
tell you a lot about how he thinks, too -- but a little more evidence
is always welcome.
David Limbaugh:
Obama Administration's Repeated Abuses Are Extension of Extreme Liberalism
Every day, we get a new kick in the gut from the
Obama administration. Most recently, Environmental Protection Agency
Region 6 Administrator Al Armendariz was caught on video articulating
his view of the agency's role in enforcing its regulations.
Mona Charen:
Carter Redux?
Every new datum on economic stagnation -- such as
Thursday's Labor Department announcement that unemployment claims remain
at a three-month high -- increases the temptation to compare the 2012
presidential race to 1980's.
Scott Rasmussen:
Voters Understand the Immigration Debate; Politicians Don't
As the U.S. Supreme Court wrestles with the Obama
administration's challenge of Arizona's crackdown on illegal
immigration, the overall issue of immigration remains misunderstood by
both political parties in Washington.
Ken Blackwell:
The Secularization of the MLK, Jr.
This month at the National Catholic Prayer Breakfast
in Washington, the faithful met to worship the Almighty and discuss the
latest battles for religious liberty in an increasingly secular culture.
Larry Kudlow:
Geithner Goes Over the Edge
Responding to a Hubbard op-ed in the Wall Street
Journal -- which calculated that the president’s spending plans would
require an 11 percent tax increase on people
earning less than $200,000 a year -- Geithner said, “That’s a completely made-up, remarkably hackish observation for an economist.”
Oliver North:
Victory Parades
GEORGETOWN, S.C. -- Sixty-seven years ago this week,
U.S. and Allied forces were racing across Germany and uncovering the
deepest horrors of Adolf Hitler's Third Reich. Liberated death camps and
extermination centers where millions perished were evidence of a brutal
Holocaust perpetrated in the Fuhrer's "Final Solution."
Pat Buchanan:
Tomorrow's Man -- or Yesterday's
Among the GOP victories in 2010, none was sweeter than that of Marco Rubio.

late 1960s.

Obama's Middle East Policy: Too Little, Too Late
President Obama waxed eloquent at the Holocaust
Museum in Washington this week, speaking of the men and women
commemorated there as "a testament to the endurance and the strength of
the human spirit."
Reince Priebus:
Will Obama Apologize to Women for His Failures?
Today, President Obama will speak at a Women’s Issues
Conference organized by his campaign in Washington, DC. Hopefully he
will take the time to apologize to the women in attendance.
Linda Chavez:
Rubio's Lifeline
Marco Rubio has thrown the GOP a lifeline; let's see
whether his fellow party members are willing to grab it. The freshman
U.S. senator from Florida has been a hard-line foe to illegal
immigrants, both in his home state and since his election to Congress,
but now he is considering drafting a new "DREAM Act," which would offer
legal status to illegal immigrants who were brought to the United States
as children.
Paul Greenberg:
Old Man in a Bar, or: A Meditation Against Entropy
The old man in a rumpled linen suit at the end of the
bar stood out like a weed at a garden show. All around him the young
couples and swinging singles, so impressionable and so eager to impress,
went on laughing and talking about whatever they laugh and talk about.
Donald Lambro:
Redistributing Tinier Slices of Obama's Economic Pie
WASHINGTON - Somewhere between the New Frontier and
the Age of Obama, the Democrats turned fiercely anti-capitalism,
anti-business, anti-wealth and anti-success.
Daniel J. Mitchell:
The Selfishness Debate: Ayn Rand vs the Dalai Lama
During one of the dinners, we got into a fascinating
conversation about the Buddhist concept of altruism (or at least one
strain of that tradition) and Ayn Rand’s concept of selfishness, both as
general ideas and as they relate to happiness.
Bob Beauprez:
EPA Energy Policy: "Crucify them"
Al Armendariz, the Region VI Administrator for the
EPA brags that the agency's "general philosophy" regarding enforcement
of energy regulation is to "crucify" and "make examples" of oil and gas
companies.
Charles Payne:
Farms Too Tough for the Kids
The plan to break down the American can-do spirit and
replace it with the notion we can only achieve as a collective overseen
by the government is focusing more and more on the youth of America.
Diana West:
Army May As Well Put Our Soldiers in Straightjackets
To keep former Army 1st Lt. Michael Behenna behind
bars until 2024 for the 'unpremeditated murder' of an insurgent during
the war in Iraq, U.S. military prosecutors have resorted to strange and
disturbing twists of law, logic and morality. They were all on display
again this week in Behenna's final plea before the military's highest
court of appeals in Washington, D.C. It was enough to make the gold
eagle on top of the American flag in the courtroom shake and then hang
its head.
Michael Prell:
Rejected White House Correspondents' Dinner Jokes
Here are some jokes that will not be delivered at the
annual liberal love-fest known as the White House Correspondents’
Dinner, being held this Saturday in Washington DC...
Chris Poindexter:
Gold Recovery Continues
I’ve been saying all along that a dip in
manufacturing or exports would prompt the Fed to dump more cash into the
economy to keep the employment numbers moving in the right direction.
The rapid recovery in gold prices would seem to indicate at least a few
people agree with that assessment.
Lincoln Brown:
It’s Not Easy Fueling Green
It would appear that be it electric cars or biofuels,
this administration is more interested in Cash, Command and Control
than it is in providing real energy solutions.
Bill Tatro:
Apple (AAPL) is Different This Time
The furor over Apple stock brings to mind two statements that resonate through history in the investor’s graveyard.
First, I have to have it! Second, this time it’s different!
Fritz Pfister:
Are People Really That Stupid?
"Summer of Recovery," "headed in the right
direction," "worse than we thought," are mere rhetoric while America
suffers the worst recovery of any recession since WWII.
Night Watch:
France Lobbies for Military Action on Syria
France today raised the possibility of military action against the Syrian government.

Entrepreneurs, Engineers, Move to the Midwest
To use market parlance, if you “buy” Chicago now, you are buying low.
David Sterman:
3 Bargain Stocks that Emerged from the Market's Slump
The S&P 500 has fallen at least 1% on four
occasions this month alone. It happened only once in March and not even
once in February.
Wayne Allyn Root:
Atlas Shrugged: Is American Business Going on Strike?
The U.S. economy is crumbling. Businesses are
collapsing in record numbers. The real unemployment rate approaches 15%
(or higher).
Mike Shedlock:
Bernanke Calls Krugman "Reckless"
Neither Krugman nor Bernanke understands why
businesses are not hiring. Neither understands that debt eventually has
to be dealt with.
Ann Coulter:
Romney Doing the Job the Republican Establishment Won't Do
The actual Republican Establishment –- political
consultants, The Wall Street Journal, corporate America, former Bush
advisers and television pundits -- are exhorting Mitt Romney to
flip-flop on his very non-Establishment position on illegal immigration.
