Mark Davis:
Bulletin: We Are Still at War
“By Allah, by the almighty Allah, we swear we will never stop fighting you.”
Brent Bozell:
The 'Assassinate Wall Street' Movie
Usually movie makers strive to stay ahead of the cultural curve. It makes them "visionaries" who are "cutting edge" because they "push the envelope." Two years ago, "Occupy Wall Street" was the hot fad, stoking the usual left-wing outrage at bankers and the finance industry.
John Ransom:
Obama's Fantasy Camp Presidency
We’re going to subsidize everyone's welfare by reducing their hours, reducing their pay and increasing their taxes. Just chalk it up as the cost of Barack Obama's Fantasy Camp Presidency.
Jeff Jacoby:
Terrorism is Never Justified
Broadcasting from Boston the day after the Marathon bombing, a correspondent for the French-Canadian TV channel LCN explained why Americans shouldn't be surprised when such atrocities occurred. It's the price they have to pay for being a superpower, Richard Latendresse told his viewers.
Jonah Goldberg:
First Amendment Clause-Trophobia
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."
David Limbaugh:
Liberty, Where Have You Gone?
A sagacious Bible scholar told me how important it was for the Israelites to look back and remember what God had done for them in the past because it gave them the strength to persevere through difficult times.
Mona Charen:
Obama and the Law
Mr. Obama -- greeted rapturously in 2008 as the "constitutional law professor" who would restore respect for our founding document -- has demonstrated a contempt for law unseen since Nixon.
Cal Thomas:
Two Prime Ministers
Following the hacking death of a British soldier by two alleged Islamic extremists, Prime Minister David Cameron said, "There is nothing in Islam that justifies this truly dreadful act."
Pat Buchanan:
Will the West Wake Up?
After a British soldier wearing a Help for Heroes charity T-shirt was run over, stabbed and slashed with machetes and a meat cleaver, and beheaded, the Tory government advised its soldiers that it is probably best not to appear in uniform on the streets of their capital.
Suzanne Fields:
Barack Obama as the Great Gatsby
Washington is a one-industry town. The nation's capital has wonderful art museums, concerts and theaters, but they're only supplements to the big story playing out on the front pages, always the government.

Warning: Move Money out of Spanish Banks...Now
By the way, this is yet another warning call "If you have money in Spanish banks, move it somewhere else immediately!"

Daniel J. Mitchell:
The IMF Is the Doctor Kevorkian of Global Economic Policy
I don’t like giving international bureaucrats tax-free salaries. And it really galls me when they use their privileged positions to promote statism. So you can understand why I’m not a big fan of the International Monetary Fund.
Night Watch:
Iraq Civil War Pauses, Temporarily
The concluding paragraph of the Chinese statement is a strong indicator that the conversation was probably "heated", not just "warm." The next round of appointments Choe makes or does not make will provide important insights as to the state of China's relations with North Korea.
Rich Galen:
Tom Ridge
The official portrait of the first Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security was unveiled yesterday at the Department headquarters on Nebraska Avenue, in Washington, DC.
Donald Lambro:
Obama Playing at the Improv, Making it Up As He Goes Along
WASHINGTON - Five months into his improvisational second term, a sluggish economy and severe jobless rate seem to have vanished from President Obama's agenda.
Diana West:
From the Brooklyn Bridge to London
Nearly 20 years after a Hasidic Jewish boy riding across the Brooklyn Bridge was killed by a Muslim fighting jihad, a British soldier was hacked to death and reportedly beheaded on the streets of London by Muslims fighting jihad.
Bob Beauprez:
Rand Paul: "Congress should be on trial" - not Apple
Apple employs 600,000 people in the U.S. and is the largest corporate taxpayer in the country. Last year alone, the company paid $6 billion in taxes. This year they expect to pay $7 billion.
Charles Payne:
Arab Spring at the Fed
The Street loved the statement but hated the reality that accommodation may be reeled in sooner rather than later. The fact of the matter is there are a number of issues here.
Bill Tatro:
Going Japanese on Housing
Since last November and the advent of Abenomics, the Nikkei has appreciated approximately 85%. Even if that rapid rise was based solely upon solid fundamentals, it shouldn’t be questioned that the parabolic move was definitely due for a pullback.
Charlotte Hays:
The Destruction of Our Culture of Self-Reliance and Civic Society
One would hope that Americans would recognize that we are on the edge of a precipice.
Fred Lucas:
Talk Radio, Immigration Reform and ‘Running America’
When Senate Republicans sent out their talking points to friendly media sources on the bipartisan comprehensive immigration reform proposal Hugh Hewitt read them on the air before calling them “four pages of crap.”
Roger Schlesinger:
The Hair is Almost Gone
Then came Barney Frank and Chris Dodd, two politicians who never spent a day in the operations of a mortgage company, but nevertheless created thousands of pages about day to day banking operations as they felt it should exist.
Brian and Garrett Fahy:
Scandalous Ignorance
“Everything comes from the top.” This quote from an anonymous source in the IRS Determinations Unit explains why the IRS targeting of conservative groups did not likely originate with low level staffers at a remote IRS outpost. The truth is far different.
Daniel Pipes:
The U.S. Government Compiles a Bibliography
At this moment of sequester and belt-tightening, the U.S. government has delivered a reading list on Islam.
Ann Coulter:
When Did We Vote to Become Mexico?
At first I thought the IRS scandal was leaked to distract from the Benghazi scandal. But that didn't make sense because the IRS scandal is a more obvious abuse of power than the White House lying about the murder of four Americans in Libya.
