Spot the Greedy Ones January 18, 2013 Frank Ryan In defining the plight of America as the "greedy" wealthy, the president has failed to effectively solve any of our problems at all. And what about the greedy unions?

We're Leaving Now; The Wars Remain January 17, 2013 Shoshana Bryen President Obama wants his legacy to be "winding down" America's wars in and bringing American troops home. He is doing that, but at the same time leavinbg unresolved conflicts that will enable al Qaeda to thrive and grow.

Lincoln Divided January 15, 2013 Jason Stevens Republicans may be "blood of the blood, and flesh of the flesh" of Lincoln's party, but that alone does not provide "the electric cord" to the man. Party and place mean nothing compared to policy and principle.

America: The Kardashian Years January 13, 2013 Clarice Feldman Facts -- they just don't matter like they used to.

The Spoiled-Brat Syndrome January 13, 2013 Charles Battig Thanks to the modern educatonal system, the child has been conditioned to expect continual parenting, either from natural parents or from the ersatz parent-State. And children do grow up....
Obama's Great Big 2014 Problem January 12, 2013 Thomas Lifson Never mind the propaganda media's barrage of epitaphs for conservatism and the GOP, the midterm elections are shaping up to heavily favor the purportedly down-and-out opposition to "fundamental change" in America.

Throwing the Rich to the Lions January 4, 2013 Jeannie DeAngelis For four years, Barack Obama has worked diligently to disparage success. He has cultivated class envy using the false premise that the wealthy destroyed the nation and are deserving of monetary castigation.
The America of 2013 January 3, 2013 Steve McCann The United States in 2012 re-elected a man, Barack Obama, who is self-centered, unprincipled, and arrogant. From the perspective of the rest of the world, this is increasingly the image of the United States in 2013.

Senator Feinstein's Constitutional End-run January 2, 2013 Alan P. Halbert Feinstein's tactics are nothing short of a backdoor scheme to render legal weapons illegal by redesignating them as equivalent to automatic weapons.
President Obama is Responsible for Our Fiscal Mess December 31, 2012 Neil Snyder There is not a single example in history of a country abusing debt and not having to pay the price.
The Dark Side of the Cliff December 31, 2012 Scott Mayer If no deal is struck and we go over this so-called "fiscal cliff" we'll wake up fully intact on 1/1/2013 but aware that paychecks will be smaller and life will get much tougher once the economy worsens.

Fiscal Cliff: Yeah, It's Coming December 29, 2012 Warren Beatty So now the House of Representatives has adjourned for its Christmas recess until after the New Year. I guess that Boehner (and Obama) thought the Christmas adjournment was more important than the country.
Keeping Sight of the Cliff December 26, 2012 Anthony J. Ciani The "fiscal cliff" is more like a mountainous landscape, with slopes, falls, rapids, and precipices. The United States has found itself lost in the mountains, surrounded by dangers, and it needs to navigate a path back to safety.
Please Pass the Kool-aid December 24, 2012 Deane Waldman What "costs" more than all the doctors, the drugs, hospital admissions, and wheelchairs combined? Answer: the regulatory healthcare bureaucracy, mostly Federal government but the States as well and more so for those who set up healthcare exchanges.
GOP Strategy and the Fiscal Cliff December 24, 2012 Michael Bargo, Jr. The GOP should give up on trying to negotiate with the President. He shows no interest in doing anything but portraying them as the party of the rich. The GOP should instead turn their attention on post-cliff strategy.

Boehner and Cantor versus Augustus Barack I December 15, 2012 J. Robert Smith The president wants capitulation from Republicans -- unconditional surrender -- with a public signing of accords on the deck of the U.S.S. Missouri (or maybe on Warren Buffet's yacht moored somewhere on the Potomac).
An Overlooked Constant December 13, 2012 Steve McCann Short of turning America into Stalin's police state and confiscating all the wealth of the "evil" one percent, the predictable behavior of this economic class very much revolves around the tax policies of the government.
Embrace the Suck December 13, 2012 William L. Gensert Obama's politics of bitterness and envy just won an election. Perhaps the failure of his policies based on the same can save a nation.

Barack Obama's 'Gangnam Style' December 10, 2012 Jeannie DeAngelis Barack 'Obama Style' started just like "Gangnam Style." In 2004, a relatively unknown Illinois senator showed up at the DNC convention singing his snappy collectivist tune, and within months became a national obsession.
Obama and Slavery December 10, 2012 Daren Jonescu The progressive seeks to nationalize the slave industry. This is the literal meaning of his demands for confiscatory tax rates, redistribution of wealth, hyper-regulation of industry, and government control of health care and education.

December 10, 2012 Cindy Simpson Divisive conversation on "Fairness" and motivational phrases such as "We can't wait," "Vote for revenge," "You didn't build that," and "Punish your enemies" were addressed to those whom the campaign already knew would answer "I do" to the question, "Who goes Obama?"
Morsi Now Backed by Egypt's US-Equipped Military? December 7, 2012 Andrew G. Bostom Obama's tepid words hardly commensurate with the gravity of the jihadist threat posed by an emerging Morsi-Egyptian military alliance
Fiscal Cliff Causes Hostage Crisis December 7, 2012 Scott Mayer The so-called "fiscal cliff" that has everyone so paralyzed with fear is really just a politically-constructed illusion designed to scare Americans into handing over more money and power to politicians.

Militant Socialism in America November 29, 2012 Eileen F. Toplansky We need to be better marketers for liberty. We need to call Obama out when he creates a web of deceit. If he can come up with one-liners for his party line, so can we.
Obama's Next Move: the Global Warming Tax November 28, 2012 Brian Sussman The "climate change tax" now on the table at the Doha, Qatar climate conference is shaping up more and more to resemble a global welfare progam. And guess who pays the bill?
Obama's Santa Claus Presidency November 24, 2012 Peter Wilson We're facing a mass of educated Democrats who demand little from government beyond what they think they paid for, but who voted to expand government against their economic self-interest.
Where we go from here November 23, 2012 Thomas Lifson Let the moaning and groaning stop, it's time for the GOP to ask the hard questions about its future.
Your Future in Obama World November 22, 2012 Hillary Pugh By laws passed and executive orders and regulations already written, by money printed and debt issued, the Powers That Be have already determined our future.
Whither America? November 21, 2012 Steve McCann when a nation embarks on the road to massive government and control of the day-to-day lives of its citizens, the outcome has always been detrimental to the individual. Liberty and freedom are the first casualties.
Elections have Consequences #3 (A Continuing Series) November 20, 2012 J.R. Dunn It's possible that the vast wave of medical innovation of the past half-century that has eased so much in the way of human suffering is being brought to an end.
Conspire, Divide & Smear November 19, 2012 William L. Gensert Barack Obama is playing political poker with a master tactician. And who knows? Maybe our king has an ace up his sleeve and can compel Petraeus to concede, but I would doubt it.
Losing the Battle to Spin the War November 19, 2012 Boyd Richard Boyd By failing to expose Obama and the Progressives in general, the Republicans have left most Americans unaware that there is a war raging for the soul of the nation.
Obama Appoints Class Warfare Czar to Save New York November 18, 2012 Daren Jonescu It is essential at this moment that conservatives not become so inured to adical rhetoric from Obama's politburo that we simply let it pass for normal in public discussion.
The Secession Obsession November 18, 2012 D.J. Garth I'm sure that liberals will claim that they love their country too. Which begs the question: if you love your country so much, why are you in such a terrible hurry to change it into something else?
Obama vs. the Rule of Law November 17, 2012 Jason Pappas The very reason he advocates plundering the rich is the reason we must oppose it. We cannot allow a minority to be singled out and plundered at will whenever the president wants another "fiscal hit."
Obama's Jonestowns November 16, 2012 Jack Cashill Worse than fraud is the process that turned nearly 20,000 black people into automatons that voted for Barack Obama by a combined 19,605 to 0 votes cast in 59 Philadelphia districts. Fear can do that.
Outnumbered but not Outgunned November 16, 2012 T.S. Weidler The Second Amendment isn't necessary until someone tries to take it, at which point it becomes absolutely paramount. If you aren't prepared for that day, there is no better time to start than today.
Three Fictions about Obama's Second Term (and Why They aren't Encouraging) November 16, 2012 J. Robert Smith Know thy enemy as thyself. Know and accept what drives the president and his voters. Hoping, wishing, and expecting that the president will run aground his own follies may be folly in its own right.
2014 and Beyond: Containment and Rollback November 14, 2012 Ed Lasky There were silver linings on Election Day that should not be dismissed. It's time to disband the circular firing squad and focus on the superb opportunities conservatives face in the 2014 midterms and the 2016 general election.
Truth-telling on Petraeus November 14, 2012 Thomas Lifson The Petraeus Affair is a hall of mirrors, full of so many distractions that the truth cannot be perceived. Fortunately, for those willing to listen, a truth-teller is available.
Was the 2012 Election Stolen? November 13, 2012 Selwyn Duke There is shockingly ample evidence that Barack Obama did not legitimately win the presidency last Tuesday. So what are we going to do about it?

Why Mitt Lost and Obama Won: A Different Perspective November 11, 2012 James Arlandson You have cold, rational economic reality on your side, but people have the warm pleasure principle inside them.

Israel: 'We can expect the US to abandon us' November 11, 2012 James Lewis Post-election, a self-deluded American electorate will get its comeuppance. Unfortunately, that includes the innocent, and among them are our allies who have been abandoned

NY Times Predicts Obama will take Netanyahu to the Woodshed November 9, 2012 Leo Rennert It comes as no surprise that, after President Obama's second-term victory, the Times relishes the prospect of Bibi getting his comeuppance.
Got Mandate? November 9, 2012 Jim Yardley Two things argue persuasively that Obama was denied the possibility of having a mandate that he so desperately wants in order to justify his every action for the next four years.
A Fearless Prognosticator and His Track Record November 8, 2012 Randall Hoven I made 16 specific predictions for 2012 in early January, and I think we have enough information right now to see how well I've done. If you're wondering what I'm predicting right now, it's rather dark.

They the People November 8, 2012 Nidra Poller Here comes the 21st-century inside-out version of the Know-nothings -- pro-immigrant and anti-American, anti-Christian and Islam-friendly, the Know-nothings welcome with open arms the cool trendy vanguard of totalitarian conquest.
The Death of Ordinary Decency November 7, 2012 James Lewis The balance of decency in America has changed. Every society has normal, decent people and the other kind. The America we grew up in was fundamentally decent. Decency was the expected standard. Now the balance has changed.
The Mourning After November 7, 2012 G. Murphy Donovan There seem to have been four flaws in the campaign to unseat a mediocre man who should, by any measure of performance, have been beaten easily
Obama's Second Term November 7, 2012 Ron Kilmartin The first term was simply to get things moving. As for the second term... watch out.

Why We Lost the Republic November 7, 2012 Timothy C. Daughtry Conservatives should be asking ourselves how the Obama camp got close enough to a majority vote to win the election -- if they indeed won it -- or even to steal it, if that is what really happened.
Why Obama Must Go November 6, 2012 J.R. Dunn Barack Obama has governed not as a president in the way that we understand it -- a chief executive loaned vast powers for a brief period as representative of the people -- but as a caudillo, a charismatic figure, the leader of a movement, a third-world chieftain.
Obama's War on Women Backfires November 6, 2012 Janice Shaw Crouse The Obama campaign seriously underestimated women's intelligence and ability to think for themselves. Truth has a way of breaking through even amidst campaign smoke and mirrors.
Third World Corruption and the 2012 Election November 6, 2012 Selwyn Duke If we want more evil behavior, all we need do is reward it through toleration.
Obama's Machiavellian Ploy November 6, 2012 Glenn Fairman If Obama can inflame the venal passions of envy and moral rot effectively into the sinews of the election, then perhaps -- against all odds and all political judgment and reasoning, he might prevail.
Debt and Deceit November 5, 2012 Michael Kelbaugh Mitt Romney has actually balanced several budgets in his time. He was, in fact, so good at balancing budgets that he was hired to balance budgets and earned his living balancing budgets.
The Election Will Not Be Close November 5, 2012 Monty Pelerin This country may be down and its people hurting, but it is not out. People understand that conditions need not be this way, and they are about to impose their remediation on Washington.
Obama: A Man Without a Conscience November 5, 2012 Daren Jonescu If a sane man lacks a capacity for stopping or rebuking himself, then we say he has no conscience. Barack Obama has long been a candidate for inclusion in the category of the conscienceless.
The Worst News from Benghazi November 5, 2012 James Lewis The most damning Benghazi revelation is the Obama policy that led to the disaster: Obama's four-year policy of secretly supporting violent Islamists against civilized Muslims.
The Malignant Narcissist and the Benghazi 'Snuff Film' November 5, 2012 Fay Voshell What sort of man could watch Americans fighting and dying while his administration gives the order for rescuers to "stand down"?
A Day Away November 5, 2012 William L. Gensert On November 6, I will cast my ballot for Mitt Romney and the promise of tomorrow. Everyone who feels the same -- and we are legion -- should get up and out on Election Day.

A National Security Hybrid November 5, 2012 Lee DeCovnick B.H. Obama has issued 139 executive orders since becoming president. Some are fairly benign; many are deeply troubling, specifically as to the wholesale consolidation of emergency powers into the office of the presidency.

A President without Shame November 4, 2012 Clarice Feldman Vote like your life depends on it on Tuesday, because it probably does.
Questions Are Common; Answers Are Rare November 4, 2012 Ronald Wieck To argue that nobody should politicize a deadly terrorist attack is disingenuous and downright stupid. Policies produce outcomes, and one possible outcome is a terrorist attack.
Bloomberg's November Surprise November 3, 2012 S. Fred Singer The multibillionaire mayor of New York City has combined bad climate science and bad politics, hoping to help swing the electorate toward re-electing Barack Obama.
Cowardly Lying November 3, 2012 William L. Gensert Baghdad Bob had one big lie: Saddam was winning. Benghazi Barack has a myriad of little lies spinning a web of delusion and deceit with every telling.
How I Confronted Obama Biographer David Maraniss November 3, 2012 John Drew There is something broken in America culture.
Obama and the 'Repo Games' Voters November 3, 2012 David Paulin Once the repo man calms down these contestants, they seem like perfectly nice people, albeit without the social skills that exist among the middle class -- a term that in this sense describes certain cultural values and manners rather than a particular income bracket.
The Class of the Race November 3, 2012 Frances Twitty Do Americans believe that it has taken four years to lay the foundation for success? Isn't that kind of hard to swallow when we have spent four years witnessing all the partying, campaigning, spending, vacationing, and golfing?
Never Been So Happy to Be So Wrong November 3, 2012 Aaron Reber Obama's campaign is showing the signs of a presidency going down in flames: sputtering messaging, creepy ads comparing voting for Barack to losing your virginity, binders, Big Bird, polls collapsing, and a challenger who looks more like a president.
The Obama Refrigerator Has No Power November 3, 2012 J. James Estrada Perhaps some of our tax money spent in the Obama Stimulus should have gone to infrastructure rather than in payoffs

Lies, Damned Lies, and Goddamned Lies November 2, 2012 Douglas Hackleman The bottom line, of course, is that Obama was extorted by his own irresistible desire to win. He would fabricate his past, dissemble at will, slime any opponent, deny any friend in order to assure himself the White House.
A Frank Conversation about Race November 2, 2012 Mark W. Hendrickson We conservatives are not the problem. We do not hate black Americans. On the contrary, we welcome them into the fabric of American society.
Beggar Off-in-Chief November 2, 2012 Ken Blackwell President Obama knows where he was that bloody night of September 11. He knows what he ordered done that night. He knows that everything possible was not done to protect the lives of four Americans.
Obama Just Does Not Like People Very Much November 1, 2012 Ed Lasky In a few days, Americans will have a chance to express their feelings for a man who has so little feeling for them.

Missing Bush in Northeast Electrical Outage November 1, 2012 J. James Estrada The power outages states are encountering in the Northeast did not have to happen.

Obama's Loss: Inevitable for Years November 1, 2012 C. Edmund Wright The pundits and the pollsters can argue political gravity all they want -- and they certainly have for the majority of the past four years -- but truth does not require validation from those who refuse to acknowledge it. Truth is...period.

It's Not Over October 31, 2012 William L. Gensert Does anyone believe that when Barack Obama loses on November 6, he will go quietly?
Obama's Communist Cooperation Campaign Proceeds Apace October 31, 2012 Daren Jonescu Might not a few Republican establishment pundits and statesmen just ask, politely and with the utmost moderation, "What's with all these communists stumping for Obama?"
The Miscalculation of the American Left October 31, 2012 Steve McCann By unbridled spending and headlong drive to control the day-to-day activities of all Americans, Obama has at last awakened those who chose to sit on the sidelines and merely observe while assuming that the country was too big and rich to fail.
Two Americans: Lance Armstrong and Barack Obama October 31, 2012 Jack Curtis Lance Armstrong's star has fallen; Barack Obama's awaits November 6, 2012. Both Americans have achieved greatly in their fields; one has failed greatly, while the other is poised to succeed or fail as well.
No Men in The White House October 31, 2012 Richard F. Miniter Isn't the American way to make the decision at the lowest level possible and then back those leaders on the spot, no matter what the outcome, as long as it was evident that they were trying to do the right thing?
Christie's Actions Explained October 31, 2012 C. Edmund Wright In a state where Barack Obama is still relatively popular, it makes sense for Christie to start backing down from his hard anti-Obama rhetoric of the past couple of years.
Case Strengthens That Obama Poem Is Anti-Semitic October 31, 2012 Jack Cashill In my book Deconstructing Obama, I dismissed "Underground" as a sophomoric effort devoid of any real meaning. I still think it sophomoric, but I am not at all sure it is devoid of meaning.
Leaving No One Behind October 31, 2012 Shoshana Bryen Could the President of the United States really have said that "Americans leave nobody behind?" Did he really have the nerve to use the words that soldiers use to reassure themselves that their comrades will do everything they can to support them?
Despising America October 31, 2012 Glenn Fairman For four grueling gut-wrenching years we have peacefully grit our teeth while you have systematically kindled a conflagration between the productive and parasitic nodes of American society.
Living Through Sandy (and No Obama Leadership) October 31, 2012 Yossi Gestetner Many sections of Rockland County, New York, and many areas in the region suffering destruction from Sandy, are not on the radar of the national media, FEMA, or the President.
A Sickly Pale Blue October 31, 2012 Rosslyn Smith A few weeks back I picked out three states considered solid blue as possible upsets waiting to happen. Just look at what is going on, and consider the hidden assets of Romney.
Did Obama Write Anti-Semitic Poetry? October 31, 2012 Jack Cashill Readers of "Underground" are left with only two real choices. They can write it off as a silly undergraduate poem about apes that step on figs, as I originally did, or they can interpret it as an allegory.
Mitt's Royal Slam October 30, 2012 J.R. Dunn Romney treated the campaign the same as he would have treated a new business back in the '80s or '90s. If he brings this off, if he is elected on November 6, Mitt Romney will stand as the most masterly political strategist of his epoch.
The Fall of the House of Soetero October 30, 2012 Glenn Fairman For the impiety of having navigated our ship's compass bearing with the constellation of the sinister Crescent and Star while having offered our holy fire to false and venal gods, we duly witness with fear and trembling the tragic end of our Sun King.
Glorious Leader Gap October 30, 2012 John Drew I believe I have the personal experience and training needed to verify the gist of Donald Trump's concerns on Barack Obama's college transcripts: I can confirm that Obama is an affirmative action president.
Obama and the Liberal Conceits October 30, 2012 Christopher Chantrill In four short years, President Obama has demolished his party's once-in-a-generation opportunity to create a durable liberal majority. The conceits he shares with the liberal ruling class are the reason why.

The 'Original Intent' of Benghazi October 28, 2012 Jeannie DeAngelis Even if the president didn't personally instruct security personnel in Benghazi to "stand down," it's not at all difficult to imagine an unruffled Obama watching the attack in real time, yawning, executing a sleepy stretch, and saying, "It's getting late guys, I think I'll turn in."
Who Do You Trust? October 27, 2012 Jan LaRue Romney is the only person who can compel Obama to answer questions about the Benghazi assault, because Obama won't hold a press conference. And Big Bird's beak is evidently sealed.

Obama still lying; He Knew Within Minutes. October 27, 2012 James Lewis Don't let anybody tell you Benghazi isn't important. If it wasn't important it would not be worth lying about for six whole weeks before the election.

In Benghazi Osama Defeated Obama October 26, 2012 James Lewis Osama bin Laden could not have imagined a greater success than Benghazi at this point. Our total incapacity to use our military might in any coherent way is showing the Muslim world the difference between a strong horse and a weak horse.

Romnesia October 25, 2012 Matthew May The term Romnesia is instructive and reflects Obama perfectly. It is not presidential. It is not statesmanlike. It is a cheap shot aimed at cheap laughs. It doesn't really make much sense. It is a gimmick based on a fiction and the opposite of witty.
Women Know Mitt and Barack (We've Dated Them Both) October 25, 2012 Joy Overbeck They're the two prototypical guys nearly every one of us women has encountered in our romantic lives: the Boy Scout and the Bad Boy; Mr. Clean-Cut and Mr. Mystery.
