Derek Hunter:
Why Republicans Are Poised To Lose The Second Amendment Battle
You have to give progressives credit. They’re nothing
if not thorough. When an opportunity to limit the Second Amendment
presented itself in the Sandy Hook massacre, regardless how tasteless it
was to exploit that opportunity, they went full bore toward their goal.
John Ransom:
Obama Says "Nevermind" on Deficits
"I've been hearing from my Republican friends for
some time it is a moral imperative to tackle our debt and deficits in a
serious way," Mr. Obama said. "What I've said to them is, let's go." Oh,
wait. Nevermind
Austin Hill:
Equal Opportunity Destroyers: Politicians Of All Types Damage Small Business America
It’s not just an out-of-control IRS or EPA. And it’s
not merely the punitive demands and restraints of the new federal
healthcare law.
Doug Giles:
Women Serving in Combat Positions Is a Batty Idea
Last Thursday Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta and
other U.S. military leaders lifted the ban on women serving in combat
positions. I, for one, think this is a great idea and have a few modest
proposals, if the brass inside the beltway is open to suggestions, on
how they should deploy the dames (and whom they should deploy).
Debra J. Saunders:
Gov. Brown Does the Sacramento Choo-Choo
Gov. Jerry Brown gives great speeches with unusual quotes that never let the listener forget he is a former seminarian.
Shawn Mitchell:
The Last Clinton Lie Makes a Difference
Such a perfect eruption of concentrated, seductively
appealing dishonesty had to have been crafted by the father of high-wire
lies, the master distracter himself, the Big Bill.
Paul Jacob:
The Debt Star We're Building
Politicians can say 'no' to spending only when the
proposal is meant as a joke - and don't count on that being a consistent
principle. Politicians have every intention to continue to spend,
spend, spend.
Daniel J. Mitchell:
Expect Civil Disobedience if Politicians Try to Undermine the Second Amendment
Ordinary Americans have a lot more common sense than
the buffoons in the media. They know that you get less crime when you
increase the expected cost of criminal behavior.
Steve Chapman:
The Cloud Over China
Pollution is not the only detectable thing in the Chinese air
lately. This month, after the government interfered with an editorial in a
national newspaper based in Guangzhou, protesters mounted some of the
boldest demonstrations since the 1989 Tiananmen Square movement -- while
for several days, police stood by and let them.
Michael Brown:
The Church is Not a Closet
There are many people today who despise conservative
religious beliefs, but they are quick to say, “We don’t want to restrict
your religious freedoms in any way. Just keep your beliefs in the
church.” What they fail to realize is that the church is not a closet,
and it is our private beliefs that fuel our public acts. Shouldn’t it be
this way?
Political Calculations:
Visualizing the 2012 Distribution of Income in the U.S. by Age
Our chart reveals what that distribution looked like for 2012, as indicated by the curves showing the major income percentiles.
Mike Shedlock:
How to Debate Paul Krugman: "Ask Questions Like a Child"
A child would see the answer was preposterous, but not a trained economist, politician, or brainwashed academic.
Marita Noon:
Renewables Fail the Cost Test, Again
The report concludes that wind’s true cost is about
15.1 cents per kilowatt hour for natural-gas fired back-up and 19.2
cents for coal-fired back up—or one-and-a-half to two times the cost of
new-construction coal- or gas-fueled electricity.
Mark Baisley:
A Land Rush Business in Utopia
The Democrats have been given a two year window to rush every utopian ideal through its army of despotic bureaucrats.
Tad DeHaven:
Federal Money to the States Isn’t ‘Free’
In addition to not being free, federal subsidization
of state spending makes it harder for taxpayers to understand and
appreciate where their money is going and how it’s being spent.
Chris Edwards:
Obama Overplays “We” in Inaugural Speech
Once certain products or types of infrastructure take
off, politicians want to get in on the action by subsidizing and
regulating them. In turn, those interventions have usually led to
distortions, scandals, and cost inflation.
