Nonsense ‘Survey’ Says Americans ‘Struggling in Life’
-By Warner Todd Huston
How about I ask you if you “feel” like you make enough money each year? Let’s say you make $48,000 a year, OK? (That’s the median household income in the US) You’ll likely tell me, then that you “feel” you need more. Now, from this, can I conclude that you are “struggling [...]

Sun-Times: To Heck With Clinton, Obama ‘Our First Woman President’
-By Warner Todd Huston
We can all painfully recall when back in 1998 New Yorker columnist Toni Morrison obsequiously called Bill Clinton our “first black president,” can’t we?

San Fran Chronicle Spreads False Immigration Raids Story
-By Warner Todd Huston
The San Francisco Chronicle and the various demagogue politicians of Berkeley and Oakland, California should really be ashamed of themselves for ginning up into sensational “raids” a few arrests by ICE agents and making of them actions designed to empty those community’s schools of children. In reality a few routine U.S. Immigration [...]
