By Cal Thomas (Archive) · Thursday, May 10, 2012 Former NPR and current Fox News political analyst Juan Williams made an excellent point Monday night on “The O’Reilly Factor.” Williams said the major reason President Obama had not endorsed same-sex marriage is because of the strong opposition to it in the black and Hispanic communities. [...]
By Larry Elder (Archive) · Thursday, May 10, 2012 National Public Radio’s Kai Ryssdal recently talked about the weak economy. His guests, two reporters from The Washington Post and The New York Times, acknowledged the obvious — that the economy is underperforming. Yet, in the 20 minutes of my sitting and listening in the car [...]
By Ann Coulter (Archive) · Thursday, May 10, 2012 Elizabeth Warren, who also goes by her Indian name, “Lies on Race Box,” is in big heap-um trouble. The earnest, reform-minded liberal running for Senate against Scott Brown, R-Mass., lied about being part-Cherokee to get a job at Harvard. Harvard took full advantage of Warren’s lie, [...]
By Ken Blackwell (Archive) · Thursday, May 10, 2012 Editor’s Note: This column was coauthored by Ken Klukowski Elections are about choices, and 2012′s pivotal election showcases two very different visions for America’s future. Governor Mitt Romney is quickly consolidating the Republican base to enthusiastically support him this November. His speech this weekend at Liberty [...]
By Ben Shapiro (Archive) · Thursday, May 10, 2012 This week, Vice President Joe Biden and Secretary of Education Arne Duncan essentially endorsed same-sex marriage. The Obama campaign, however, wary of minority and blue-collar voters, promptly announced that President Obama was against same-sex marriage — sort of — but that his position was “evolving.” Like [...]
By Lawrence Kudlow (Archive) · Thursday, May 10, 2012 While President Obama is out on the campaign trail talking about how bad things were four years ago, and how we have to go “forward” to his second term to see just how great things are going to be in the next four years, the biggest [...]
By Victor Davis Hanson (Archive) · Thursday, May 10, 2012 Sometimes a trivial embarrassment can become a teachable moment. It was recently revealed that Harvard professor and U.S. Senate candidate Elizabeth Warren had self-identified as a Native American for nearly a decade — apparently to enhance her academic career by claiming minority status. Warren, a [...]
By Burt Prelutsky (Archive) · Thursday, May 10, 2012 I’m sure I’m not the only person who periodically finds himself wondering if it’s all just a dream or if he’s found himself starring in one of the more bizarre episodes of “The Twilight Zone.” For instance, Bret Baier reported that Joe Biden recently had the [...]
By George Will (Archive) · Thursday, May 10, 2012 BLOOMINGTON, Ind. — Bill Hewlett and David Packard, tinkering in a California garage, began what became Hewlett-Packard. Steve Jobs and a friend built a computer in the California garage that became Apple’s birthplace. Bill Cook had no garage, so he launched Cook Medical in a spare [...]
By SEN. TOM COBURN Posted 05/09/2012 06:26 PM ET When Admiral Mike Mullen, former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said our debt — not al-Qaida or China — is “our biggest national security threat,” it should have been a wake-up call for every policymaker in Washington. Yet, since Mullen made that statement in 2010 [...]
