A Simple Way to Reduce the Prison Population

An article by Kevin Johnson that appeared on the front page of USA Today reports that “More than half a dozen states are reclassifying a range of property crimes from felonies to misdemeanors, a change that could spare prison terms for minor offenses and save states jail and prosecution costs.”1

Is a Third Party Politically Possible?

Trying to get elected as a third party candidate in America is extremely difficult if not impossible since the electing process is not by majority vote. Ballot access is also an obstacle since third parties have to meet additional criteria not required of Republicans and Democrats. Third-party advocates are determined

Occupiers’ Alternative Lifestyle Comes Out of Somebody Else’s Pocket

If you’ve never watched “The Rockford Files,” then you have missed some of the greatest social commentary ever to come out of a sit-com. One of the best episodes is when Jim Rockford, played by James Garner, teams up with a New Age nut named Jane Patten who goes by

The Occupiers Turn to Jesus for Help

The Occupiers are pulling out all the stops to support their failing cause. When Leftists start appealing to the Bible, you know they’re in trouble. How many times have we heard that “religion and politics don’t mix,” “you can’t impose your morality on others,” or “there’s a separation of church

Don’t Be Surprised if Barack Obama Wins in 2012

Don’t hate me. I’m only the messenger of the bad news. With the economy as bad as it is, President Obama’s approval rating is over 40 percent.  The comments of Bill Daley, the current White House Chief of Staff, are telling: “Considering the debacle that he came in with, the

The Myth of Liberal Media Objectivity

This story on the News Busters‘ website caught my attention: CNN’s Carol Costello, on Thursday’s American Morning, scolded the editor of conservative publication Human Events for not providing the same critical coverage of both Republicans and Democrats.

Muslims Hope to Take Over Catholic University

Some Muslims are getting smart. They’ve learned some lessons from the Communists, especially Antonio Gramsci (1891–1937). Gramsci broke from the revolutionary methods of the early Marxists. Today’s smarter Muslims don’t want to blow up stuff. Like the Gramsci Communists before them, they are working to take over our culture from

Liberal Insanity is Putting Your Children at Risk

“It’s hard to be raised by nannies and in chaos.” These are the words of Chastity Bono, the daughter of the famed entertainment couple Sonny (1935–1998) and Cher. Chastity, who now goes by the name “Chaz” because of transgender surgery, was voted off “Dancing with the Stars.” She was described

Beware of Islamic Talk of Peace

What can we expect from the Arab Spring that is sweeping Islamic nations? What will spring from these supposed democratic uprisings? Will they bring peace to the region? If history is any indication, the toppling of a Libyan tyrant like Muammar Gaddafi could mean trouble as Islam extends its promise

That’s Why They’re the One Percent

By this time most people are bored of the Occupiers around the world. They smell, their chants are idiotic, and the crowds who repeat every phrase of what a speaker says remind me of a very bad zombie movie. Don’t get me wrong. There’s a lot to protest. “Crony capitalism”

Is a One-World Government Around the Corner?

I received the following in an email: “The Vatican is pushing for the establishment of “a supranational authority” with worldwide scope and “universal jurisdiction” to guide economic policies and decisions (i.e., a one world bank). I know that some of you will be mad at what you are about to

Joe Biden is a Bully When It Comes to Free Speech

The Left is always talking about bullying. Hollywood stars come out denouncing bullying of young people because of their sexual choices. But if you’re a liberal, bullying is part of the program. To be a liberal is to be a bully. The Vice-President proved this when a reporter asked Biden

The Hypocrites in the White House

No one likes a hypocrite. No one likes to be told, “Do as I say not as I do.” The Obamas and liberals in general are the biggest hypocrites around. Of course, there are a lot of Republicans and so-called Conservatives who are hypocrites. We need to take care of

Now They Want to Tax Us to Pay for Diapers

Is there anything that a liberal won’t tax us for? “Connecticut Gov. Dan Malloy has declared Thursday ‘Diaper Need Awareness Day’ as part of a campaign by The Nutmeg State to pressure Washington into providing free diapers to low-income families.

Robin Hood Took From Government Not Capitalists

The Occupiers are calling for a Robin Hood Tax “on high-finance transactions and currency trades by banks and institutions.” Those proposing the tax — Bill Gates is one of them — want the collected fees to help the poor. Even the Vatican has gotten behind the new scheme. The church

Remembering the Good Old Days

Humorist P. J. O’Rourke says, “When you think of the good old days, think ‘dentistry.’” Gary North writes, “The greatest invention of the modern world is anesthetics. Prior to 1844, in preparation for an operation, you drank booze until you passed out — hopefully. Then the physician—‘sawbones,’ he was called—got
