The Tragedy and Exploitation of Charlottesville
August 18, 2017The inexhaustible left is perpetually lying in wait to entrap President Donald Trump in some impeachable offense. Sadly, some vocal Trump critics on the right seem just as eager to purge America of Trump. They hate him and hate that he won, and their impeachment lust will not be satiated until he’s gone. The Trump […]
It’s 1984 at Google
August 11, 2017Google’s firing of software engineer James Damore for daring to express politically incorrect ideas in an internal memo is the latest example of the political left’s tyrannical propensity to suppress speech, thought and dissent. Almost as troubling as the left’s policing is its apparent obliviousness toward its own hypocrisy and the danger it poses to […]
Major Acosta Fail
August 4, 2017On Wednesday, CNN’s Jim Acosta unwittingly demonstrated the difference between an unbiased, truth-seeking media and a biased, hostile and advocacy media. We need a watchdog press in this country, but its proper function is to report the news, not become the story. Acosta had displayed his obnoxiousness before, but he descended to a new low […]
Pseudo-Republican Squishes Are Anything but Compassionate
July 28, 2017It is enormously frustrating that conservatives can’t capture the moral high ground from the phony virtue-signaling factory that is the modern Democratic Party. Conservative policies not only work better but also are morally superior. Democrats depend on cliches and false narratives to obstruct true reform — which includes shaming many Republicans from believing enough in […]
OK, GOP: No More Excuses!
July 21, 2017Until now, I haven’t been too concerned about the Republican Party’s difficulties in passing a health care reform bill because delays have resulted in improvements to the proposed legislation. But enough is enough. No more games. It’s time to quit the finger-pointing. Neither congressional leaders nor President Trump have done enough to whip votes and […]
Retaining Our Principles Includes Keeping Our Eyes on the Big Ball
July 14, 2017Amid the endless media obsession with Trump scandal allegations, important policy issues are getting short shrift. Considering that the left is happy with the status quo — the autopilot advancement of statism — this can only please Democrats. Based on the overwhelming trend of national and state elections since 2010, the nation now firmly rejects […]
The Ongoing Frustration of Trump’s Conservative Critics
July 7, 2017The frustration of many Trump critics on the right, or MTCRs, is palpable and growing. Some are becoming more elitist by the day and utterly out of touch with rank-and-file conservatives, which is a particularly bitter pill to swallow because they believe they are the main arbiters of what conservatism means. Some are obviously disgusted […]
Mark Levin’s ‘Rediscovering Americanism’
June 30, 2017My friend Mark Levin is nothing if not a patriot of the first order. He loves the United States and its founding principles — and his latest book, “Rediscovering Americanism,” explains his passion and encourages ours. Levin believes that America’s greatness lies in its unique founding ideals — and documents — and correctly observes how […]
Democratic Party More Bankrupt Than Ever
June 23, 2017The Democrats’ comprehensive meltdown after their fifth straight election loss is a spectacle worth savoring. They’re vacillating between denial and self-flagellation, between consuming depression and delusional optimism. Some are even blaming hacking for the loss. Don’t let them fool you; they did not expect carpetbagger Jon Ossoff to lose to Karen Handel in the special […]
Leftist Extremism Is Mainstream Leftism
June 16, 2017Just in case you think the political left has become more rational or less extreme, I refer you to the following examples demonstrating otherwise. Some will say these are extreme cases, not representative of mainstream leftist (excuse the oxymoron) thought and practice, but we see such examples all the time — not to mention that […]
