The Problem with Our Health-Care Debate

Friday, November 20, 2009
By Alex Epstein

Everyone seems to have a different take on how to solve America’s health-care problem. But notice that every solution offered involves some elaborate new system of government controls. Different proposals include a “public option,” mandatory insurance for individuals, government-supported health-care exchanges, government-sponsored “efficacy research,” government-supported co-ops, and as many other ways of dictating consumer... »

Palin, Conservatism, And The Disconnected GOP

Wednesday, November 18, 2009
By Chris Adamo

A close examination of the subtleties of the McCain political debacle reveals the truth of what heartland America was expressing during the past two major elections, and what the GOP needs to acknowledge if it is to turn the political tide back on the left.

Wednesday, November 18, 2009
By Roger F. Gay

Ever wonder about the final straw that will bring down western civilization? A British judge may have created it.

Kimberly Munley, Jessica Lynch and the Path to Being a Media Heroine

Friday, November 13, 2009
By Paul Elam

But even if Munley’s actions ultimately prove exemplary, we need to acknowledge that were it not for the confusion created by the pursuit of a sensational story about a heroic woman, the headline would have simply read, “Gunman Taken Down by Police,” and Sgt. Todd would have been lucky to even have his name... »

Lessons Learned From New York District 23

Wednesday, November 11, 2009
By Chris Adamo

The American people overwhelmingly identify with conservatism, but no longer with Republicans, who all too often disavow any loyalty to it. Having vainly attempted to ingratiate themselves with the political “center,” GOP “moderates” lost touch with the conservative base. »

Wednesday, November 11, 2009
By Dr. Paul Kengor

Every Veterans Day presents an opportunity to commemorate those who served in some faraway place long ago, many of whom paid that ultimate sacrifice.

Capitalist Excess? A Review of Michael Moore’s “Capitalism”

Wednesday, November 4, 2009
By Jarrett Skorup

Love him or hate him, or his films, there’s no question about where Michael Moore stands ideologically: Left-wing, “progressive,” populist, socialist. In some ways Moore’s newest film, “Capitalism: A Love Story,” muddies the water. But in the end, all it really shows is that Michael Moore doesn’t actually know what capitalism is. Apparently, Moore thinks... »

Thursday, October 29, 2009
By Chris Adamo

Is this the great Republican strategy to turn the country back from its current downfall? Do Republican “leaders” really believe that the outrage from middle America over the thuggish nationalization of industry, banking, and possibly the healthcare field by Obama and his minions can be channeled into a boost for the candidacy of a... »

Surprised by Disaster

Tuesday, October 27, 2009
By Fred Reed

In re Afghanistan, why, you might ask, is the world’s hugest, expensivest, most begadgeted military unable to defeat a few thousand angry tribesmen armed with AKs and RPGs? Easy: Character.

A DA’S Guide to Convicting a Man of Rape, Guilty or Not

Redmond Oregon is the type of place that people like to say that they are from. A sleepy town wrapped in the mountains of central Oregon with a population of around 15,000 souls. A town small enough not to have traffic congestion, but large enough not to be absent of good schools,... »

Liberalism Concocts “Bogeymen” While Ignoring Real Dangers

Wednesday, October 21, 2009
By Chris Adamo

An epic battle is shaping up between the leftist federal government, and those peasants out in the American heartland who doggedly cling to the notion that the country belongs to them and their posterity.

By Jim Kouri, CPP

Imported food makes up a substantial and growing portion of the U.S. food supply and, considering the health and safety concerns of keeping American’s safe, Washington insiders seem oblivious to that part of protecting American citizens.

2010: Not The Time For “Faux Conservatism”

Thursday, October 15, 2009
By Chris Adamo

In truth, conservatism must be solidly based in traditional Judeo-Christian morality if it is to be conservatism in any sense. So-called “fiscal conservatives” merely profess the ludicrous notion that they can confront liberalism’s resultant social rot at a far lower cost than that expended by the Democrats. »

Democrats Are Bad For Our Health

Sunday, October 11, 2009
By Roger F. Gay

Alan Grayson (D-FL) has become the class clown of Congress, beating out some very heavy competition. How can anyone take a political party seriously that doesn’t do as much for itself? Grayson ruffled feathers and spread glee among the partisan flock a couple of weeks ago when he made this claim: “If you get sick,... »
