Rather than dividing the world between good and evil, the left divided the world in terms of economics.2012-06-12T00:01:00-04:002012-06-12T15:10:08ZDennis Prager

The bigger outrage is that politicians have created costly, inefficient, and bankrupt entitlement programs that threaten our fiscal future. 2012-06-12T00:01:00-04:002012-06-12T15:10:08ZDaniel J. Mitchell

What some of us -- well, anyway I do -- refer to as the Slobbification of America made a good showing the other day on the front page of The Wall Street Journal: the tale of a town talking up a ban on public profanity of the grosser sort.2012-06-12T00:01:00-04:002012-06-12T15:10:08ZBill Murchison

One of many things left out of the film "The Iron Lady" was Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher's warnings on the effects a single currency would have on the economies of European nations. Thatcher's premonitions place her among the great political prophets of all time. 2012-06-12T00:01:00-04:002012-06-12T07:40:02ZCal Thomas

For savvy investors, such a lousy performance brings opportunity. We get the chance to dig deeply into these washed-out stocks, seeking out the stocks that now offer even more compelling value. 2012-06-12T00:01:00-04:002012-06-12T07:40:02ZDavid Sterman

Suddenly, congressional leaders of both parties are demanding investigations into serial disclosures of national security secrets on President Obama's watch. The truth of the matter is that we already know what we need to about these leaks. The question is: Will anybody do anything about it? 2012-06-11T13:08:00-04:002012-06-12T00:10:02ZFrank Gaffney

DC government stinks to high heaven. We know DC lawmakers are certainly not “bullet proof” to corruption but it’s disturbing they think they can engage in criminal behavior without retribution.2012-06-11T12:40:00-04:002012-06-12T00:10:02ZCrystal Wright

Given the media’s neurotic hyper-sensitivity to the most microscopic hint of white on black racism here’s a question: When would a black human-rights activist who was jailed and tortured by a lily-white regime for the crime of quoting Martin Luther King be totally ignored by this same media while he testified to a Senate Committee? 2012-06-11T11:51:00-04:002012-06-12T00:10:02ZHumberto Fontova

Two weeks ago the Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics dropped a bomb on the Presidential campaign of Barack Obama when it released data showing only 66,000 jobs had been created in May - far below estimates - and that the top-line unemployment rate rose from 8.1 to 8.2 percent.2012-06-11T12:34:00-04:002012-06-12T00:10:02ZRich Galen

Conservatives have made huge strides in advancing their political beliefs in certain niches of public policy at the state level, such as promoting school choice, limiting abortion access, and 2nd Amendment rights in respect to right to carry laws. Albeit in no other area has the right-wing philosophy been the most legislatively progressive than in the field of taxes.2012-06-11T11:53:00-04:002012-06-12T00:10:02ZRyan James Girdusky

It’s been a pitiful sight – a sad week for progressives and “Big Union” Democrat-shilling thugs. In the wake of Tuesday night’s devastating recall smackdown in Wisconsin, tens of thousands of “Occupy” hippies across the nation have simply been too depressed to get stoned and not look for work.2012-06-11T10:58:00-04:002012-06-12T00:10:02ZMatt Barber

In a column for Bloomberg, Anders Aslund elaborates on Sweden’s efforts to reduce the size of the state. 2012-06-11T00:01:00-04:002012-06-12T00:10:02ZDaniel J. Mitchell

The Obama Administration takes "creative accounting" to an entirely new level.2012-06-11T00:01:00-04:002012-06-12T00:10:02ZBob Beauprez

Engraved large on one of the walls of the Korean War Veterans Memorial on the National Mall in Washington, DC are the words “Freedom is not free.”2012-06-11T00:01:00-04:002012-06-12T00:10:02ZStar Parker

I still think these central banks will try to do something if for no other reason than eventually there is a pop in the economy and they can take credit. Let's face it, Ben Bernanke has taken more bows than anyone this side of President Obama for saving the economy. 2012-06-11T00:01:00-04:002012-06-12T00:10:02ZCharles Payne

At this point it may not matter to gold and silver if the Fed decides to print more money or not; many of the forces that could move gold and silver prices higher are already in place. 2012-06-11T00:01:00-04:002012-06-12T00:10:02ZChris Poindexter

Perhaps John Edwards was right; maybe there are two Americas. In one, government-dependent Americans take to Youtube to sing about everything they can buy with their Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits, i.e., food stamps. In the other, First Lady Michelle Obama appears with the head of Disney to announce that the iconic brand’s media outlets will only advertise food that “align[s] with federal standards to promote fruit and vegetables and limit calories, sugar, sodium, and saturated fat.” 2012-06-11T00:01:00-04:002012-06-12T00:10:02ZDan Holler

If not for these private game reserves, a number of species would be extinct. Because people like the four in our party are willing to pay to see the "Big Five" and so much more, the populations of a number of these animals are thriving. 2012-06-11T00:01:00-04:002012-06-12T00:10:02ZDoug French

If you’re tracking the economy, start tracking women’s lips. If they’re red, plump and glossy, then you know that the economy is heading into a recession. 2012-06-11T00:01:00-04:002012-06-12T00:10:02ZKatie Kieffer

In the year 2000, the U.S. government ran a budget surplus, as the nation benefitted from outsize tax collections resulting from the peaking of the Dot Com stock market bubble, which reached its maximum inflation in August of that year. 2012-06-11T00:01:00-04:002012-06-12T00:10:02ZPolitical Calculations
