Raw Story | School claims boy wiped his hands on flag; boy claims he grabbed onto flag to keep from falling.

The recall election results in Wisconsin were like Christmas in June. There’s something about tears of disappointment from liberal progressives that makes my liberty-loving heart smile. 2012-06-10T00:01:00-04:002012-06-11T09:10:02ZDerek Hunter

Modern culture is more desperate than ever for a return to solid character with uniform, universal virtues. Our nation is starved for male and female models of virtue.2012-06-10T00:01:00-04:002012-06-11T01:40:02ZGina Loudon

Progressives used every doomsday machine and every death ray in their cartoon arsenal in Wisconsin and still they got an old-fashioned butt kicking. This is the biggest victory for Wisconsin since Arthur MacArthur, father of Douglas MacArthur, seized the fallen regimentals and led the 24th Wisconsin up Missionary Ridge at Chattanooga, while crying “On Wisconsin!” 2012-06-10T00:01:00-04:002012-06-11T01:40:02ZJohn Ransom

By now, you’ve probably seen the video of the young man on the state capitol grounds in Madison, Wis., upset over the loss of Tom Barrett in the Wisconsin gubernatorial recall election.2012-06-10T00:01:00-04:002012-06-11T01:40:02ZBrian McNicoll

If we look at the failure of central planning in the Soviet Union and elsewhere, a fundamental problem was that government officials – even assuming intelligence and good intentions – did not have the knowledge needed to make decisions on prices. 2012-06-10T00:01:00-04:002012-06-11T01:40:02ZDaniel J.

Every once in a while, Democrats and Republicans can work together. Witness Thursday's 90-8 vote to bring a "bipartisan reform" farm bill before the Senate. In the expectation that the bill will garner the necessary 60 votes, the House Agriculture Committee has changed its schedule to allow a floor debate on the measure in July. The White House applauded. This is Washington's version of the dawning of the Age of Aquarius. 2012-06-10T00:01:00-04:002012-06-11T01:40:02ZDebra J. Saunders

We have all kinds of technological tools to capture and record their stories so eons from now, historians can research and retell the lessons we learned back then. Can you imagine if we would have had video oral histories of the battle at Sparta? 2012-06-10T00:01:00-04:002012-06-11T01:40:02ZJeff Carter

I love Miami. Many of my conservative buddies can’t figure out why I moved here or why I stay. I remind them quite often that Miami does have its perks:2012-06-10T00:01:00-04:002012-06-11T01:40:02ZDoug Giles

The Wall Street Journal reports: “Federal regulators are using powers they gained in the Dodd-Frank financial overhaul law to ramp up an inquiry into the recent trading blunders at J.P. Morgan Chase.” How dare a private company lose $2 billion. Losing money, after all, ought to be restricted to the federal government.2012-06-10T00:01:00-04:002012-06-11T01:40:02ZRich Tucker

Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner issued this meaningless statement on Spain following the Eurogroup announcement. 2012-06-10T00:01:00-04:002012-06-11T01:40:02ZMike Shedlock

"The characteristic note of our time is the dire truth that the mediocre soul, the commonplace mind, knowing itself to be mediocre, has the gall to assert its right to mediocrity, and goes on to impose itself where it can."2012-06-10T00:01:00-04:002012-06-11T01:40:02ZPaul Greenberg

In the 19th century, Catholicism was regarded by many people in this country as thoroughly incompatible with Americanism. They saw it as a hostile foreign element that would subvert democracy. Today, a majority of the justices on the Supreme Court are Catholic, and they are taken to be as American as Mountain Dew.2012-06-10T00:01:00-04:002012-06-11T01:40:02ZSteve Chapman

ACORN alumni and radical leftists know they have the godfather of all Community Organizers in the Oval Office, and Obama has long been in the middle of promoting the failed housing policies that led to the current crisis. 2012-06-10T00:01:00-04:002012-06-11T01:40:02ZBob Beauprez

The rage of the heat blowing in the direction of the White House this past Friday was so intense that in less than three hours from saying what has to be the most universally disconnected assertion in Presidential history President Obama was back at the microphone lapping up what he said like a dog at his own vomit.2012-06-10T00:01:00-04:002012-06-11T01:40:02ZKevin McCullough

America needs a bunch more Scott Walkers, a whole lot more thoughtful, discerning voters – and we need California voters, in particular, to wake-up.2012-06-10T00:01:00-04:002012-06-11T01:40:02ZAustin Hill

Given what most economists now know, few would actively argue that Greece's entrance into the Eurozone back in 2001 was a good idea.2012-06-10T00:01:00-04:002012-06-11T01:40:02ZPeter Schiff

The simple term crony capitalism belies the evil, corrupt nature associated with the actual process. Crony capitalism goes way beyond helping your friends, your cronies. It is a twisted, orchestrated plan that rewards the cronies and costs the taxpayer, while punishing the average citizen. 2012-06-10T00:01:00-04:002012-06-11T01:40:02ZMarita Noon

New York's Mayor Bloomberg wants to ban the Big Gulp. Thus freedom goes, with each small sip at the fount of tyranny.2012-06-10T00:00:09-04:002012-06-10T10:40:03ZPaul Jacob
