First it was Hillary Clinton’s It Takes a Village to raise children by community effort and cost. Now it’s über-leftist Melissa Harris-Perry who says it takes a “community” to care for children. By “community” she means the State. She teaches at Tulane University, and before that she corrupted the minds

“President Barack Obama’s decision to launch his own political organization has some Democrats wondering: Is he just in it for himself?” Welcome to the Fear Super Obama club. The Frankenstein story comes to mind. Beware what you create; the monster might turn on you. Of course Obama is in it

Leon Panetta announced that female military personnel will now be allowed to engage in combat. They will be permitted to take frontline positions in a war. They’ll be able to get blown to bits just like men. But that’s only in war. At the same time this announcement was being

“If we want change to come, we would do well not to look at the sites of power we have no access to; the White House, the Congress, the Pentagon,” Bill Ayers said. “We have absolute access to the community, the school, the neighborhood, the street, the classroom, the workplace,

Why is it that only Republicans seem to be dragged before Congress to testify when there is the specter of a crime being committed? Or when Democrats do appear, they feign ignorance, pass the buck, and just refuse to cooperate like Eric Holder and “Fast and Furious.” I can think

Liberals were out in force on the Sunday talk-show circuit explaining why Republicans lost and what they should do to reverse the trend. Why would they be trying to help the opposition party? These guys and gals know why the Republicans lost: They didn’t appeal to their conservative base. Knowing

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has taken the blame for security lapses at our embassies. Why would she do this the day before President Obama’s second debate with Mitt Romney? It doesn’t make sense unless (1) Obama forced her to take the blame hoping he can diffuse the political damage

The early history of America shows that there was a battle between the individual and the community — the collective. We see this in Jamestown (1607) and Plymouth Plantation (1620). Early in their colonial history, the collective was deemed to be more important than the individual. As a result, the

When the leader of the free world lies to the world over and over again about an event that nearly everyone knew was untrue, it’s time for him to find another line of work. It’s shocking to me that more than 50 percent of voters say they will vote for

How do we know Romney sounds like a conservative? The media are attacking him for something he said in June that was surreptitiously recorded by, if the reports are true, Jimmy Carter’s grandson. Why would Carter’s grandson do this? It’s simple. He wants Obama to win a second term. With

Saul Alinsky (1909–1972), who wrote the book Rules for Radicals, is the patron saint of the modern Democratic Party. Liberals always feign ignorance about the intellectual sources that give meaning to their radicalism. They ask, “What’s the Communist Manifesto?” every time someone points out that one of its planks is

It’s OK for Joe Biden to talk about how Republicans are going to enslave black people if Mitt Romney gets elected, but don’t you dare tell a joke about the controversy surrounding President Obama’s birth certificate. Democrats have no trouble saying that Mitt Romney is an accomplice to murder, but

If you’ve seen the film You’ve Got Mail starring Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks, you’ll remember a few references to The Godfather. Here’s one of my favorites spoken by Hanks’ character, Joe Fox: “The Godfather is the I-ching. The Godfather is the sum of all wisdom. The Godfather is the

There’s a lot at stake in this year’s election. I suspect that most people reading this column do not believe we have the ideal candidate. We don’t. Many are hoping against hope that Ron Paul is going to secure the nomination at the Republican convention since delegates are not legally

There’s talk of a new running mate for President Obama – Hillary Clinton. But how do you get rid of Vice President Biden? He could pretend to have a terminal disease? He could claim that he wants to spend more time with his grandchildren. He’ll be 70 years old in

The leftist media are mystified as to why Newt Gingrich is conjuring up the specter of the long-dead radical “community organizer” Saul Alinsky (1909–1972). The Christian Science Monitor is arguing that those in the Tea Party are the real Alinsky followers. Just for the record, Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals, the

The Flea-baggers protesting in various cities across the United States will not be successful. The longer they protest and the smellier they get, the more that most Americans will rebel against their tactics. It’s happened before. Those pushing for an overthrow of the establishment in the 1960s through violent means

You’re ticked off by the budget and deficit deal. The old-guard Republicans caved again and took a few Tea Party people with them. So now what are you going to do? Sulk? Whine? Bitch and moan? Not me. There’s one thing about liberals that I admire. They never quit. When
