So it’s now officially official, Texas Congressman Ron Paul is suspending his latest presidential campaign. In an email to followers – oh sorry, I mean supporters – Dr. Paul makes clear that he has no money left in the war chest and he will no longer appear in states ahead of their primaries. He did […]
Most people look to the South whenever a case of racial intolerance makes headlines. While that stereotype isn’t unfounded, the days when black Southerners — and black Americans overall — were legally relegated to second-class status are gone. Our black countrymen can come and go as they please, even attending NASCAR races at Talladega, Alabama. […]
Here is a question for you: why do you think a monopoly is illegal? Monopolies are not illegal because they are staffed with criminals, or because they are formed with criminal intent; monopolies are illegal because in the absence of competition, the monopoly ceases to serve any interest but its own. Always. We call our […]
Last week a collective temper tantrum was thrown by the petulant childish voters in France, who declared that they would not eat their vegetables. French President Nicolas Sarkozy had stated time and again over his six years in office that there was no such thing as a free lunch. He tried to convince the French […]
What a story: Barack Obama wins only 79 % of the Democratic voters in our state’s primary contested only with “No Preference.” What does this tell us of the poll support for Obama, of which we hear so much about? I can’t say, but I can say his own people don’t like him. Of course […]

A growing number of Americans are dangerously obese and obviously need big government intervention to help win the battle of the bulge. That’s the conclusion of new report released by the Institute of Medicine at a three-day Weight of the Nation and Centers for Disease Control conference. The IOM warns that 42 percent of Americans […]
Mike Lee, U.S. Senator from Utah, recently sponsored a bill entitled the “Federal Reserve Modernization Act.” It is the counterpart to Rep. Kevin Brady’s Sound Dollar Act of 2012 (which enjoys 35 House cosponsors and, of equal note, already is drawing liberal fire). The Brady/Lee legislation represents an important first step forward to restoring good […]
The evolution of Barack Obama is complete…or is it? When young Mister Obama first ran for office in Chicago he proclaimed that he was in favor of same-sex marriage. Then a few years later, when he was running for United States Senate, he said that he opposed it. As of yesterday he has come full […]
Last night’s vote on North Carolina’s so-called Marriage Amendment didn’t do any favors for President Obama. Not only was The One, who still claims an “evolving” position on gay marriage, last seen ducking a planned visit to the Tar Heel state on Election Day; the passage of Amendment One is also causing a backlash for […]
