The Common Core Straight Jacket
By Alan Caruba ~ American education was based on some very fundamental principles and, from the 1640s until the 1840s, they were, in the words of Joseph Bast, the president of The Heartland Institute, “real civics, real economics, and real virtues.” Bast is the co-author of “Education and Capitalism” and in a recent speech at the […]
Farm Bill Barely Nibbles At Food Stamps
By Rachel Sheffield ~ As the debate over the farm bill continues, a great deal of hoopla has been made about cuts to the food stamps program. The Obama Administration has called the proposed cuts “harmful” and “unacceptable,” and has even threatened to veto the bill because of the cuts. But what exactly are these […]
Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard Was Politically Dead Two Years Ago. Why Did The Labor Party Keep Her In The Job?
By Andrew Bolt ~ With the Australian Labor Government now at 42 per cent to the Coalition’s 58 in Newspoll, Labor MPs must ask how they for three years let the utterly inept Julia Gillard lead them to this utterly predictable disaster, with the party about to be destroyed and its reputation trashed. Did they […]
Abortion, Money, And Free Speech
By Alan Caruba ~ The conclusion of the trial of Dr. Kermit Gosnell, convicted of first-degree murder in the killings of aborted babies and involuntary manslaughter in the drug-overdose death of a patient, ignited a renewed national discussion of abortion in America. The discussion has not been aided by the mainstream media that, for the […]
Australia’s Prime Minister Julia Gillard Will Be Gone, And Now, Even She Knows It
By Andrew Bolt ~ It’s interesting that Prime Minister Gillard didn’t give the usual “we will win” response: PRIME Minister Julia Gillard won’t commit to a future in politics if the Labor party loses the upcoming federal election. The first woman to fill the nation’s top job has shied away from giving an undertaking that […]
The Obama Crony In Charge Of Your Medical Records
By Michelle Malkin ~ Who is Judy Faulkner? Chances are, you don’t know her – but her politically connected, taxpayer-subsidized electronic medical records company may very well know you. Top Obama donor and billionaire Faulkner is founder and CEO of Epic Systems, which will soon store almost half of all Americans’ health information. If the crony […]
Australian Budget Delivered – There Is Just One Figure You Need To Know About Treasurer Wayne Swan – $19.4 Billion
By Andrew Bolt ~ Last night, Federal Treasurer, Wayne Swan delivered his sixth Budget for Australia. With this Labor Government so out of favour with the voting public, and standing so low in the Polls, this could prove to be his last Budget, with the Federal Election looming in September. It was not a typical […]
If Australia Is Doing So Well, How Did Treasurer Wayne Swan Go Broke?
By Andrew Bolt ~ Tonight, the Australian Treasurer Wayne Swan hands down the Budget for Australia. This is an election year, and every Budget handed down during an election year has huge amounts of money in give aways to bribe lure the voting public into supporting them. This year however, the cupboard is bare, and […]
Australia Cuts Foreign Aid As Prime Minister Gillard Walks Even Further From Another Costly Rudd Plan
By Andrew Bolt ~ Australia’s former Prime Minister Kevin Rudd once had hopes of being a UN grandee, or of at least buying us a seat on the UN Security Council. Money seemed no object, and I was astonished that no hardheads in Labor were asking about a dramatic increase in spending that didn’t seem […]
Academia as Humpty Dumpty
By Tom McLaughlin ~ How can so many college kids afford to party during spring break? Plane tickets, hotel rooms, alcohol, food, marijuana, all cost a lot of money. Do their parents pay for it? Do they use their government Pell Grants? Their taxpayer-subsidized loans? And where do they get the time? Don’t they have […]
Australian Treasurer Wayne Swan Should Be Sacked
By Andrew Bolt ~ Good question from Terry McCrann: Why hasn’t Wayne Swan been sacked? The Treasurer, Wayne Swan should go, after the disastrous forecasts and assumptions on which his budget was based. It is absolutely fundamental to understand that this is not just a matter of getting forecasts wrong in a volatile and uncertain […]
CNN, Robert Redford Team Up For Series On Obama’s Chicago Under Emanuel, The ‘Tough Visionary Mayor’
By Tim Graham ~ The Chicago Tribune’s Steve Johnson reports CNN has made a deal with liberal actor Robert Redford to produce a eight-episode reality show in 2014 called “Chicagoland.” CNN and Redford aren’t filming in a red state or a hick town – it’s Obama’s adopted hometown: “One of the attractions to Chicago, CNN […]
