    The FCC Pitchman

    The Federal Communications Commission is looking to raise revenue – and the agency is in full pitch mode. The company is injecting itself as the middlemen between buyers (wireless carriers) and sellers (TV broadcasters) of spectrum, hoping to take a large commission check as a result.

    Jim Crow and the Donkey: A True History the Left Loves to Ignore

    MSNBC host Rachel Maddow's producer, Steve Benen, just took a whack at the American Civil Rights Union's new booklet, The Truth About Jim Crow, which National Review Online writer John Fund wrote about in a recent column.

    Beau Bergdahl's Duty; And Ours

    Beau Bergdahl has been returned to "active duty." Apparently, that means a desk job while the Army considers what should be done with this young enlisted soldier. The Taliban held Bergdahl for five years since walking away from his post one night in 2009.

    The Blumenthal 'Kill Them Later and Later' Bill

    Connecticut's liberal Sen. Richard Blumenthal wants no one to have to worry about aborting unborn children late in pregnancy, very late. He favors abortion at any time prior to birth. It's not clear yet whether he would vote to deny federal protection to newborns that survive an attempted abortion.

    Mr. President: Keep Your Promises to Camp Liberty!

    We have a situation at Camp Liberty in Iraq where some 3,000 refugees from Iran, all of whom are opponents of the brutal Mullahs' regime in Tehran, are being held. These refugees are being told to sever their ties to a group called MeK before they can be considered for asylum in the U.S. or Europe.

    Iran: The Existential Threat

    In the confusion that accompanies the surge of ISIS (Islamic State of Iraq and Syria), it is not surprising that many are deeply concerned. This extraordinarily savage group of terrorists has stormed out of Syria and is threatening many cities in Iraq—cities that Americans liberated with their blood and treasure.

    Obama's Pentagon Bungling Shipments for Our Troops

    Once again, Barack Obama is showing his lack of serious concern for the military.

    President Obama: 'Fundamentally Transforming' America?

    Has President Obama really been so disappointing from a genuinely Left-wing perspective? I suggest he has not. Nor has he been "incompetent," as so many of my conservative colleagues are charging. Most recently, some have raised the bar (or, perhaps, lowered it) by claiming that President Obama's administration is one of "epic incompetence."

  • Susan Rice: Fool Us Twice?

    Susan Rice: Fool Us Twice?

    It's an old American saying: "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me!" President Obama's National Security Adviser went on another Sunday show last weekend. She proceeded to tell the nation and the world that the AWOL U.S. Army soldier held for five years by the Taliban, Bowe Bergdahl, had served "honorably, and with distinction." She defended the Obama administration's decision to trade five of the worst detainees at Guantanamo Bay for this soldier.

  • President Obama Meet Chancellor Bismarck

    President Obama Meet Chancellor Bismarck

    When Sen. Barack Obama went to Berlin in 2008 and proclaimed himself a "citizen of the world," he was acclaimed by hundreds of thousands of young Germans. They were as excited as many young Americans were by this avatar of Hope and Change.
