P.C. Can Kill
Friday, November 13, 2009
Cynthia Hall tried to warn us, but we didn't listen.
A Meaty Debate
Friday, November 06, 2009
Before a football player is drafted into the pros, he has to go through the meat market. The NFL combine allows teams to poke, prod, weigh and examine players like a side of beef, and in the end, only a lucky few will emerge with multi-million dollar contracts. Maybe the rest should complain to PETA.
Getting the News, Weakly
Friday, October 30, 2009
Conservatives: Looking for the perfect Christmas gift this year? You might want to consider a gift subscription to the "new" Newsweek magazine. It's the gift that will keep on giving, providing laughter throughout 2010 -- assuming it survives that long.

Friday, September 25, 2009
A Washington tell-all book is seldom a good place to look for political wisdom. But, whether he meant to or not, former White House speechwriter Matt Latimer's new book, "Speech-Less: Tales of a White House Survivor," makes at least one important point: politics should be about ideas, not personalities.
The Growing Grip of Government
Friday, September 18, 2009
It used to be that if somebody did a poor job but didn't want to fix it, he'd shrug and say, "Well, that's good enough for government work." But these days, that's the problem. Too much of our work is government work. In everything from housing to high finance, the hand of government is pulling the strings.

Thursday, September 10, 2009
Maybe August was simply a long dream (or nightmare, for some politicians). Our leaders spent the month in town hall meetings, hearing from citizens who want nothing to do with government-controlled health care.
