WASHINGTON EXAMINER — Most Americans complain that government is unresponsive to their wishes. But not everyone feels that way. In the space of two days, two prominent Democrats have called for less responsive government that ignores public input... (more)

JOHN HAYWARD — On Wednesday, the National Federation of Independent Business petitioned the Supreme Court to review a decision from the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals regarding ObamaCare. The Obama Justice Department feels good about its general track record defending the law in appeals courts, and has also filed a petition with the Supremes... (more)

NATIONAL REVIEW — Soon after Texas governor Rick Perry announced his presidential campaign, a few websites, mostly liberal, compiled a list of the constitutional amendments he has at various times touted... (more)

WASHINGTON TIMES — Hollywood is the land of make-believe. So it's fitting that President Obama found himself at the House of Blues on Monday night to tell wealthy, liberal donors that taxes need to go up to save the economy. "We can't just cut our way out of this problem," Mr. Obama said. "We've got to have some revenue"... (more)

SEN. JIM DEMINT — The demise of Solyndra, the bankrupt solar panel company showered with more than a half-billion dollars in stimulus loans, exposes the fatal flaw of President Obama's jobs plans. Government officials rushed $535 million to Solyndra because the Obama administration was determined to make the company the centerpiece of its green agenda regardless of the law of supply and demand...

LOS ANGELES TIMES — Abortion foes in Mexico scored a victory Wednesday when the Supreme Court upheld a provision of Baja California's state constitution that says life begins at conception. Seven of the court's 11 justices deemed the measure unconstitutional, but that was one short of the eight votes needed to overturn it... (more)


September 28, 2011
JOHN HAYWARD — A new Zogby poll puts Herman Cain​ at the top of the Republican field, as the top choice of 28% of poll respondents. (IBOPE Zogby International says the polling sample consists of "all likely voters and of likely Republican primary voters")... (more)


September 28, 2011
HUNTSVILLE TIMES — In the latest ruling, a Birmingham federal judge this afternoon again upheld most sections of Alabama's tough new immigration law. U.S. District Judge Sharon Lovelace Blackburn this afternoon ruled on a lawsuit filed by a coalition civil rights groups and individuals seeking to block the law... (more)


September 28, 2011
NEWSMAX — Americans no longer trust the mass media because their thrust has turned from news reporting to political activism, former CBS correspondent Bernie Goldberg told Bill O'Reilly on Fox News. Goldberg was responding on "The O'Reilly Factor" Tuesday night to a new Gallup poll in which 55 percent of respondents said they have little or no trust and confidence in the media, while 44 percent had some or a great deal of trust and confidence...

JOHN STOSSEL — Politicians say they create jobs, but they really don't. Or rather, they rarely create productive jobs. Government has no money of its own. All it does is take resources from one group and give them to another. The pharaohs might have claimed they created work when they ordered that pyramids be built, but think how much richer (and freer) the Egyptians would have been if they'd been allowed to pursue their own interests... (more)


September 28, 2011
WASHINGTON TIMES — New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie has reaffirmed to supporters that he isn't running for president, even as a speech he delivered at the Ronald Regan Presidential Library was likely to stoke fresh speculation about his White House ambitions... (more)


September 27, 2011
LOS ANGELES TIMES — Rhode Island education officials have voted to let high school graduates who are in the country illegally pay in-state tuition at public colleges and universities, acting on an issue that state lawmakers have dodged and that has entered into the debate among the Republican presidential hopefuls... (more)

DENNIS PRAGER — About five years ago, I was invited by the Hoover Institution to lecture at Stanford University over the course of a week. Coincidentally, Israel's Independence Day fell during that week, and so I was invited to speak at the celebration held by pro-Israel students... (more)


September 27, 2011
MONA CHAREN — Do not suppose for a minute that Herman Cain's victory in the Florida straw poll will alter the liberal narrative about the Tea Party and Republicans. No, we will continue to be instructed by the Congressional Black Caucus and the Today Show and the New York Times that the eruption of the tea parties is a reflection of the dark id of American conservatism... (more)


September 27, 2011
TED NUGENT — The ugliest form of racism is accusing others of racism when there is none. Throwing around the terms "racist" and "racism" has been a tactic of the left for decades. Surely we can all agree that Martin Luther King Jr. would not endorse such an ugly tactic, as he wanted us to judge each other on the content of our character rather than our skin color... (more)

PHYLLIS SCHLAFLY — Outsourcing is not the only way we are losing American jobs to Communist China. The Chinese have figured out how to capture jobs inside the U.S. by using our EB-5 visas (employment-based, fifth priority)... (more)

WES VERNON, RA ANALYST — There's a lot of money and political activism idling on the sidelines -- held in abeyance by key figures amongst Republican-oriented groups and individuals. That "smart money" (in currency and political acumen) is waiting for the perfect candidate to take on Barack Obama... (more)


September 26, 2011
WASHINGTON EXAMINER — "There is simply no way that Republicans will nominate the man who passed Obamacare's prototype," a veteran Republican political operative told me earlier this year. But that's exactly what the Republican Party looks likely to do -- nominate former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney... (more)
