The Founding Fathers Said...

Every child in America should be acquainted with his own country. He should read books that furnish him with ideas that will be useful to him in life and practice. As soon as he opens his lips, he should rehearse the history of his own country. - Noah Webster, On the Education of Youth in America, 1788

American freedom is spiraling out of control, and it needs to be reigned-in.
Right?
I don’t know any American who would actually say such a thing - at least not in so many words. But far too many Americans have succumbed to a certain “sickness” these days. It’s the perverse notion that their [...]

As I pen these words not more than sixty miles north of where I sit, a radical Islamist breeding ground is churning out hate, weapons training, and radical Wahabi indoctrination. To date President Barack Obama’s administration has done zero about it.
In fact as you spend today doing whatever pleases you, it [...]

Two weeks ago, ABC News White House correspondent Jake Tapper wrote in his “Political Punch” blog that the Obama White House has begun covering its own stories, “complete with cuts, interviews and chyrons identifying who’s speaking.”
Although Tapper called the “coverage” (Obama at the White House basketball court shooting hoops with the [...]

WASHINGTON — Epiphanies are a dime a dozen among congressional Democrats as they discover urgent new reasons to experience the almost erotic pleasure of commandeering other people’s money. For example, freshman Rep. Alan Grayson, a Florida Democrat whose district includes Disney World, was recently there and was inspired.
The world, he realized, [...]

Or, as Jennifer Rubin’s piece at PJ Media says, “Democrats: It’s OK When We Politicize the Justice Department.”

Obama’s fuel-economy standards are unsafe
May 31, 2009

Mr. Obama announced new miles-per-gallon regulations on May 19 that mandate that automobiles achieve 42 mpg by 2016. During last year’s presidential [...]

May 31, 2009
President Obama announced creation of a new federal cyber czar on Friday. “Cyberspace is real, and so is the risk that comes with it,” he said. Too bad this czar’s power isn’t.
