Latest Congressional Budget Outlook (CBO) for 2012–2022 was just released. It says that the real unemployment rate is 10%. Not to worry, President Obama will help you find a job if you’re unemployed. But he will scold you first by telling you that you should have a job since the

Charles Murray has been a keen observer of American society for nearly 30 years. He unraveled the welfare state in 1984 with his book Losing Ground: American Social Policy 1950–1980. The book that rocked the establishment was The Bell Curve: Intelligence and Class Structure in American Life (1994). Murray wrote

This present administration is prepping the poor to vote for him this November. The dependency vote is big for Democrats. The “moochers” as radio personality Neal Boortz calls them, have learned how to game the system to their benefit. It’s like playing a slot machine that always pays. Then there’s

The lies keep on coming. Someone once said that in “the big lie there is always a certain force of credibility; because the broad masses of a nation are always more easily corrupted in the deeper strata of their emotional nature than consciously or voluntarily; and thus in the primitive

The one-page handwritten letter is written on Executive Office letterhead in cursive and is dated January 25, 2012. In the letter, the governor mentions job creation, the state’s budget, and invites the President to tour Arizona-Mexico border to discuss border security. Brewer said she wrote the letter to tell him

The Federal Reserve has come out with an economic outlook report. The low growth numbers led to a statement that interest rates would not be raised until late in 2014. MoneyNews.com offered this statement on the Federal Reserve action: The Federal Reserve has downgraded its outlook for economic growth this

Equivocation is a logical fallacy. To equivocate is to give “equal voice” — the same meaning — to a word when actually it has two distinct meanings. “The sign said ‘Fine for Parking Here.’ Since the sign said it was fine for parking, I parked there. In the first case,

Here are a few lines from the President’s State of the Union Address: “Let’s never forget: Millions of Americans who work hard and play by the rules every day deserve a government and a financial system that do the same. It’s time to apply the same rules from top to

There’s saber rattling in the Middle East; Obama has shut down a job-creating pipeline that would make us less dependent on foreign sources of oil from less than friendly nations; unemployment is still high; there is no budget; spending is out of control; our elected representatives support bills they don’t

I don’t get to listen to Rush Limbaugh that often. But on Monday, I was in my car and got to hear a conversation that Rush had with a black truck driver. Rush didn’t say much. He let the man talk, and talk he did. It was wonderful. He described

“I’ve been hearing a lot of these Republicans talking about, oh, that’s class warfare, and he just wants to redistribute, and doesn’t believe in work, and he’s trying to create an entitlement society, and this and that and the other. Let me be absolutely clear: I should pay more taxes,

It wasn’t too long ago that that we had three sources of national news: ABC, CBS, and NBC. Print media were limited to the daily newspaper and national news magazines like Time, Newsweek, and U.S. News & World Report. No more. The media gatekeepers are few and far between today.

“Give them an inch, and they’ll take a mile.” Once we say it’s a good idea for our elected representatives to control one thing, they’ll want to control everything. You know this is true. Now we learn that six House Democrats, led by Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-Ohio), want to set

Newt Gingrich called President Obama “the best food-stamp president in American history.” Of course, liberals saw this as a coded racial slur: “I don’t think he is consciously whipping up bigotry, but he is no fool and this is going to be seen through a racial prism,” David Greenberg, an

Economics isn’t hard, unless you’re a liberal. Republican governor Chris Christie mocked a network graphic insisting that 55 percent of New Jersey residents think he’ll be Vice President and 68 percent don’t. In case you don’t see the problem with these numbers, 68% + 55% = 123%. We’ve heard about

Building codes and zoning laws have been used to deny the right of churches to establish or continue the operation of Christian schools. The IRS tried to impose racial and ethnic quotas on Christian schools during the Carter administration to deny tax exemption to schools that refused to comply with

A coalition of African-American pastors and pro-family Christian and Jewish leaders held a press conference outside the headquarters of the Southern Poverty Law Center in Montgomery, Alabama, to protest the SPLC’s smearing of pro-family groups that oppose homosexual activism as “hate groups.” The SPLC has been co-opted by a Leftist,

The media and, unfortunately, some Republicans are making an issue out of the tax rate that Mitt Romney pays. First, we should be thankful that many people get to pay just 15 percent on their income. This means that the money is not going to the government to be wasted
