By Mona Charen (Archive) · Tuesday, October 25, 2011 Two successful assassinations — those of al-Awlaki and bin Laden — have persuaded some that President Obama, whatever his domestic failures, has presided over a successful foreign policy. This is way too generous. In fact (with the exception of targeted assassinations and the surge in Afghanistan), [...]
By David Limbaugh (Archive) · Tuesday, October 25, 2011 President Obama couldn’t have chosen a more fitting slogan than “We can’t wait” to promote his latest legislative elixir for our ailing economy. What could be cleverer than to employ double meaning in aid of doublespeak? CBS News reports that Obama will use the phrase to [...]
By Cal Thomas (Archive) · Tuesday, October 25, 2011 “Another one bites the dust And another one gone, and another one gone Another one bites the dust.” — Queen Forgive me if I don’t join the State Department, American officials and world leaders in their euphoric Hallelujah Chorus celebrating the demise of Libya’s Moammar Gadhafi. [...]
By Debra Saunders (Archive) · Tuesday, October 25, 2011 What is the purpose of high-occupancy vehicle lanes? Is it to make people who aren’t in car pool lanes feel resentful? Or, as University of California, Berkeley civil and environmental engineering professor Michael Cassidy believes, is the goal to reduce the number of people-hours traveled? Cassidy [...]
October 25, 2011 By Mercer Tyson The proclamations of the Occupy Wall Street crowd ring familiar. They want top-quality free health care, education for all, and fairness. They denounce capitalism, wealthy people, personal responsibility, and in effect, reality. Sounds like Progressive philosophy to me. Sara Robinson, senior fellow at the progressive Campaign for America’s Future, [...]
October 25, 2011 By James Lewis doubt that President Obama loves the name “Captain America,” but that’s the job he was elected to do in 2008. National security is the president’s first job. But Obama has been by far the most catastrophic captain of the ship of state in American history in every conceivable way. [...]
Posted 10/24/2011 06:55 PM ET Meltdown: The president’s barren jobs program has also forced him to go back to the drawing board on his mortgage program. His latest anti-foreclosure tonic merely doubles-down on failure. Stubbornly high unemployment has made it harder for people to pay their mortgages, adding to the already record number of [...]
Posted 10/24/2011 06:56 PM ET Journalism: Is the New York Times a news organization or a front for left-wing activists? Reporter Natasha Lennard was filmed leading an Occupy Wall Street panel, offering radicals tips on keeping their identities secret. Openly. In a video that appeared on BigGovernment.com, Lennard, a Times freelance reporter who was [...]
Posted 10/24/2011 06:55 PM ET Diplomacy: As the U.S. careens from debacle to debacle, our policy in the Middle East is now in disarray. American influence is waning, as radical Islamists take over in nation after nation. The damage may be irreversible. Arab Spring has given way to Arab Fall, and things aren’t going [...]
