In some sad ways, the world is the same as 75 years ago. The Moscow Trials lack parallel in modern life except in Orwell's dystopian horror, 1984. So much evil sprang from communism. [...] The depressing real statistics on illegal immigration enforcement. [...] Why is Professor Juan Cole such an apologist for the Iranian government? [...] The U.S. has a double standard when it comes to supporting the Libyan opposition but not the Iranian opposition. [...] The left's latest tactics involving smearing the Tea Party will backfire. [...] The deception taking place with the current political situation can be compared to the deception by a hustler in the Hitchcock movie They Won't Believe Me. [...] Why the union drive to recall Republican Senators in Wisconsin was a colossal failure. [...] In a compelling four-part series, Debra Rae explores nuances of conservative Islamic culture in Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, and Yemen from the 1970s to the present day. While relaying real life testimonials (her own included), Debra crosses time, societal distinctions, and stereotypical barriers. [...] Dulled are the instruments of government intervention in free markets. [...] Unions overplayed their hand thinking they had public sympathy for their benefit excesses, extracted from compliant prior state legislatures. Now they are licking their wounds and getting ready for their next hate-infused recall election – Gov. Scott Walker's next year. It will be a doozy. Will public-sector unions face defeat again at the hands of "people power"? Or [...] The economic downturn has resulted in massive foreclosures, layoffs, and spiraling credit card debt. Is filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy the way to save your home and property and get out of debt? I am a bankruptcy attorney in Arizona and represent clients filing Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 personal bankruptcies. Here is what you [...] On occasion, the light from Hayek's brilliant mind does shine through to a previously inoculated denier. One such convert who has seen the light is David Mamet, the famous American playwright, who had an epiphanous change of heart within the last decade. [...] A core tenet of Darwinism is survival of the fittest. Slow and inefficient subspecies of a particular genus are always supplanted by more robust and dynamic amalgamation. [...] "This is the uprising of the working class. We're redistributing the wealth. In America you have the tea party, in England you've got this." - Bryn Phillips, U.K. rioter and self-described "anarchist"(1) [...] Free trade causes trade deficits and therefore debt, and is largely the root cause of the federal budget debt problem. The free market, on its own, will neither limit the accumulation of excessive debt nor redress the excess once it has been created. [...] If they asked simple questions without the touchy feely garbage like are you frustrated, then the New York Times would get a result that would be useful. Also, this poll may turn out to be 24% Republicans and about 60% Democrat. [...] Trita Parsi of the National Iranian American Council used to have no sympathy for Iran's Green Movement until he figured out that pretend sympathy could be used to hurt Iran's opposition organization MEK. [...] Obama has suffered two legal setbacks in the area of drilling for oil and Obamacare. [...] Hopefully Secretary of State Hillary Clinton will make the right decision and remove the Iranian opposition organization MEK from the State Department's list of terrorist organizations. [...] Congress needs to amend the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) to close the loophole allowing women who are pregnant to enter the U.S. with intentions to give birth here. [...] Working as a cog in some vast organization is the grim fate of most young Americans. Why not offer an Un-College Fund instead of the typical college scholarships through which young men and women could open a small business in some field that interests them? Even more than that, an Un-College Fund would protect our [...] What does the future hold for investments? Precious metals will continue to rise, as inflation and freshly printed money both ramp up. There are specific stocks which will do well in times of uncertainty like these. Specifically, those with oil or precious metals production capability, that are not hedged to metals prices for future sales, [...] The truth behind the statement supposedly written by 37 experts on Iran advocating for the continued black listing of the Iranian opposition group MEK by the U.S. State Department. [...] Many writers ponder the American Jewish community's apparent self-defeating loyalty to Obama's increasingly evident animus to Israel, swooning to his appealing assertions and inundating him with money. Liberalism/idealism per se is not the villain, it is rather the malicious misuse of it of which we should be aware. [...] |
