Ann Coulter:
Avoid the Need for Spying Using This One Not-So-Weird Trick
Well, of course the government is spying on Americans! Look at the havoc caused by American citizens engaging in terrorism.
Michelle Malkin:
The Amnesty Mob vs. America
You can try to put "conservative" lipstick on the lawless amnesty mob. In the end, however, it's still a lawless mob. The big government/big business alliance to protect illegal immigration got a lot of mileage using foolish Republicans Marco Rubio and Paul Ryan as front men. But the true colors of the open-borders grievance-mongers always show through.
John Stossel:
Government's War
As Americans obsess over NSA spying, abuse by the IRS and other assaults on our freedom, I can't get my mind off the thousand other ways politicians abuse us.
Walter E. Williams:
Unasked and Unanswered Questions
I'm not arguing that today's progressives are racists like their predecessors, but they share a contempt for liberty. My question is: Why haven't today's progressives disavowed their racist predecessors?
Brent Bozell:
Censoring the 'Anti-Gay' Viewpoint
The media elites have never been less interested in objectivity than they are right now on "gay marriage." They don't wear rainbow flags on their lapels when they appear on television, but the coverage speaks for itself.
Jonah Goldberg:
Snowden a Fool, Not a Spy
It would make things so much easier for everyone if Edward Snowden were working for China.
Jeff Jacoby:
Two Pandering Poseurs at the Final Senate Debate
Gallup reported last week that Americans' confidence in Congress has fallen to just 10 percent — an all-time low. After watching last night's debate between Ed Markey and Gabriel Gomez, I don't think the next US senator from Massachusetts is likely to reverse the public's low opinion.
Neil McCabe:
Mothers Demand Action Targets Video Shooter Games
Naomi Beth Seligman, the left-wing PR specialist, who helped CIA clerk Valerie Plame deceive the nation, is at it again, and this time she is going after gun makers and video game producers.
Bob Barr:
The “Soft Tyranny” Born Of “Trust Us”
“If you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear.” This is the mentality shared by a growing number of Americans who would allow government to run roughshod over their rights, rather than raise concern about the vast expansion of the Surveillance State in the past decade.
Mike Shedlock:
Too Many Graduates - Not Enough Jobs
Well, at least China's middle class is expanding, for now. That's not something we can say here in the US.
Ransom Notes Radio:
Creepy Government Watches Your Purchases Too
The NSA is checking out your email, Common Core standards are logging away information about your kids, and now the CFPB is tracking consumer purchases. . . Oh, you don’t know what CFPB stands for? Don’t worry: Diane Katz, with the Heritage Foundation, is here to help.
Terry Jeffrey:
De Facto Allies in Syria's Civil War: Obama, McCain, al-Qaida
President Barack Obama, Sen. John McCain and al-Qaida leader Ayman al-Zawahiri now share a common goal: They support Syrian rebels seeking to overthrow Bashar Assad.
Ben Shapiro:
America Loses the War on Terror
Our war on terror is now over. It's over not because President Obama says it is, though he has implied as much over the past several weeks. It is over because we have surrendered.
Daniel J. Mitchell:
What’s the Better Role Model, France or Switzerland?
Most sensible people already understand that countries with free markets and small government out-perform nations with big welfare states and lots of intervention.
Night Watch:
Russia Comes Clean About Syria
The Russian leadership has been very clear in communicating that its support for Syria is in part payback for NATO's intervention in Libya.
Austin Bay:
The War Over Blood Ivory
For over three decades smuggling and selling illegally obtained blood diamonds and exotic minerals has made waging low-level warfare in Central Africa a lucrative criminal racket for rebel militias and corrupt military officers.
Brett Bogus:
Civil Unrest: Does This Sound Familiar?
The people of the world are growing increasingly frustrated and tired of corrupt, invasive governments with little accountability to their people and the United States is no exception.
Paul Greenberg:
The Awakening: America Stirs, But Will We Lead Again?
The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil in the world, as Edmund Burke once observed, is that good men do nothing.
Donald Lambro:
Obama's Road Trip: Running Away From Responsibility
It is a well-known axiom of presidential politics that when things aren't going well at home, chief executives go abroad.
Rich Galen:
Headwinds for Obama
As the President giggled and played rock, paper, scissors with Russian President Vladimir Putin at the G-8 Conference in Ireland, the bloom appears to have begun to come off the Obama Rose as far as the American people are concerned.
Charles Payne:
Will That Dog Hunt?
The world feels like it's going to the dogs, and this week will only add further proof. There's the Big Dog Ben Bernanke who plans to bark intentions to slow down on the money printing presses while at the same time letting Wall Street know in no uncertain terms he is their best friend.
Jacob Sullum:
The Red Line to Damascus
You can't say he didn't warn us -- not only about escalating U.S. involvement in Syria's civil war but also about the lack of a credible argument for it based on anything resembling national defense. The president painted himself into a corner with his own red line.
Carrie Schwab Pomerantz:
Can You Borrow From Your IRA?
Once you reach 591/2, you can take penalty-free distributions from either a traditional or Roth IRA at any time but you may have to pay income taxes (non-deductible contributions can be withdrawn tax-free).
Ken Connor:
The Lost Art of Education
In rejecting the objective truth of the classical model in favor of a subjectively defined, instrumentally-oriented model, we're undercutting our ability to flourish as a society.
Crista Huff:
Stocks in the News: Netflix Hooks Up with DreamWorks
Earnings are expected to grow rapidly at Netflix for at least the next few years. With projected earnings per share this year of $1.41, that gives the stock a PE of 163.
Randall DeSoto:
As Alaska Goes, So Goes America?
Mid-term elections are problematic for the party holding the Presidency; mid-term elections following scandals or highly divisive policy choices are particularly problematic.
Thomas Sowell:
The Loss of Trust
Amid all the heated cross-currents of debate about the National Security Agency's massive surveillance program, there is a growing distrust of the Obama administration that makes weighing the costs and benefits of the NSA program itself hard to assess.
John Hawkins:
