Tony Snow: A Gentleman and Conservative Warrior

This past year has been a saddening one for many conservatives, who lost William F. Buckley, Jr. in February and then United States Senator Jesse Helms earlier this month, on Independence Day. The former was, in many respects, the founder of modern conservatism and its most articulate voice for over four decades. The latter was [...]

Illegal Immigration Scandal Shakes Arizona State Bar Association

After several legal ethics experts issued opinions declaring that the AZ State Bar’s investigation of Maricopa County Attorney Andrew Thomas was meritless, the Bar took swift action against one of those experts - its own former Bar president Ernest Calderon. Calderon’s opinion was issued on Wednesday, May 28. The Bar retaliated against him by removing [...]

Striking changes in Arizona as illegal immigrants flee the state

Arizona is leading the nation in local enforcement of laws against illegal immigration. As illegal immigrants leave the state, the state’s most serious problems such as traffic congestion and the expense of teaching English Language Learner classes are dissipating.
Since Arizona’s local law enforcement began enforcing illegal immigration laws and an employer sanctions law went [...]

A Farewell: God and William F. Buckley, Jr.

The memorial mass for William F. Buckley, Jr., was held April 4, 2008 at the spectacular St. Patrick’s Cathedral in New York City. Around 2,200 guests filled the church, a fascinating who’s who of notable conservatives and political celebrities from Henry Kissinger to Chris Matthews to Tom Selleck. It was a beautiful full Catholic [...]

William F. Buckley, Jr.: The Most Influential Conservative of the 20th Century

WFB’s legacy was building up the intellectual side of conservatism and coalescing conservative factions, which set the groundwork for conservatives to win victory in the political election and campaign realm with the presidency of Ronald Reagan.
The passing of William F. Buckley, Jr., who died this past Thursday at 82, represents the loss of one [...]

McCain lacks straight talk and conservative positions in debate

John McCain is sort of like the guy who thinks if he says something enough, people will believe it even though he does the exact opposite. McCain’s strategy is to use the phrase “straight talk” so much people forget that he has an extensive history of waffling.
If McCain becomes president, he will be the [...]

Britney Spears: Female casualty of the child support and custody system

The political pundits are wrong about Britney Spears’ bout of bizarre behavior. She is not mentally ill. She is like many other parents, sadly, who have been pushed to their emotional limits by a viciously unfair child support and custody legal system that allows one parent to abuse the other. Consider the timing: her strange [...]

Predicting the 2008 Republican Presidential Primary Nominee

With only one day to go until the Iowa caucuses, Republican presidential candidates Mike Huckabee and Mitt Romney are leading polls in the early primary states, but Giuliani is still ahead in nationwide polls. How much do the early primary states contribute to determining who eventually wins the nomination? Giuliani has ignored the earliest primary [...]

Democrats Greedily Blocking Healthcare for our Returning Veterans

Whether one agrees with the war or not, individual patriotic Americans who signed up to serve our country, putting their lives in danger, should not be blamed.
The Democrats in Congress did a sneaky thing to try and force massive spending increases for social welfare programs and government education through – they included them in a [...]

Promoting emotional gender differences is hurting marriage rates

Women can no longer be taken for granted when it comes to desiring marriage. Since they’re increasingly becoming financially independent, marriage “security” means they’ll probably end up paying for some guy’s kids from a prior relationship.

Why is the Republican Party attacking our two major presidential candidates?

What is the Republican National Committee doing attacking the two major GOP contenders for president, Giuliani and Romney (who have no history as conservatives) for being too conservative on illegal immigration? The party leadership is out of touch with not only conservative Republicans, but mainstream Republicans as well.
The Republican National Committee chairman, Mel Martinez, [...]

Defense in Bandy Child Porn Case Distorts the Truth

It is unfortunate to see Wendy McElroy, a former writer for my website intellectualconservative.com (and who has always been very open about her libertarian views on pornography) drink the kool-aid of 20/20 and other media spin regarding the prosecution of Matt Bandy. The prosecution by my boss Maricopa County Attorney Andrew Thomas was not about [...]

The Iran Dilemma

Critics of the Bush administration who complain that the U.S. is too hawkish toward Iran have no better plan of their own to offer. U.N. member countries who are not on Ahmadinejad’s top two enemies list care more about oil than whether Ahmadeinejad wants to bomb us.
Ironically, although [...]
