One would think–hope, for God’s sake–that the world’s having come so close to having been ruled by a fascist killing machine would have been enough to teach those who are in a position to stop it from ever happening again to stop it from ever happening again. Apparently not, however. [...]

A test of wills — that’s going to be the manner in which this nation’s current, volatile political climate will ultimately be determined. Those with the staying power to see this struggle through to the end will decide the course of our future. If I were a betting man, of course, I’d go straight to [...]
A Liberal Grip on Reality

The accosting demands of liberal America are really starting to get to me. They are unmatched in fury, money, and their grip on the media and, as a result, groups like moveon.org are financing and actively pursuing the downfall of America. Really. I am no demagogue; these are simply the truths of our circumstances. Take [...]

National Review: Jonah Goldberg: Constitutional Amendments and Citizenship Rights Progressives love to tinker with the constitutional design. They simply do it by stealth, appointing Supreme Court justices such as Elena Kagan, who, her testimony notwithstanding, everyone knows will treat the Constitution like Felix the Cat’s magic bag; when she searches the document hard enough, you [...]

Wall Street Journal: Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader? It’s hard to do any serious research into the differences between liberals and conservatives (and other political types) because everyone has such a vested interest in trying to game the answers to make their side look better.

Dear Gov. Brewer, Allow me to begin my comments, Gov. Brewer, by thanking you for taking the common-sense stand with regard to illegal immigration for which so many honest, everyday Americans have desperately been asking of their federal government.
