Rather than taking the message politely, Democrats have plowed ahead with their plans to raise taxes on the “wealthy” in America. In doing so they will be hammering America’s small businesses with new tax burdens that will only hurt the prospects of the nation’s poor and jobless. There simply isn’t room in American politics today […]

Protect America First
For a very long time now I have been calling for the removal of U.S. troops from Japan, Korea, the Middle East and Europe. Why are Americans put in the line of fire? Why are American taxpayers subsidizing the defense of nearly the entire world? Advanced nations like Germany and Japan have near zero defensive […]
The Tidal Wave has Crashed
As Robert Stacy McCain writes at The American Spectator, the massive gains by House Republicans have not yet been comprehended by most Americans. Today, the GOP holds its largest majority since 1949. The massive margin of victory is a mandate for smaller government, a repeal of Obamacare, and serious spending and tax cuts that enable […]
Happy Thanksgiving!
Ratify New START
Why are Republican leaders holding the New START plan, agreed upon by Barack Obama and Russian president Dmitri Medvedev, hostage? Surely over one thousand long-range nuclear weapons is enough for both countries. The dark years of the Cold War are fading away in the memories of many, and good riddance. No one in government should […]
Getting Away!

The FairTax is one such growth-oriented tax reform that could be […]
Liberty and Freedom Reign
It isn’t often that the Europeans learn from America’s mistakes and adopt a model that is much clearer, succinct, and successful. The European Central Bank obviously has issues, being faced with a couple dozen separate fiscal policies to balance, but its single mandate of targeting price stability is a vastly superior model than the bipolar […]
Youthful Success vs Aged Failure
The GOP is doing a good job of putting forward freshmen in leadership positions in the House. While the Republicans add youth and new ideas to their ranks, the Democrats have decided to pursue a rear-guard strategy of keeping the same leadership and blaming their losses in the House on everyone else but themselves. The […]
Krugman, China, and the Dollar
Today Americans have to wonder just how far off the deep end Paul Krugman plans to go with his calls for fiscal and monetary stimulus. This morning Krugman compared the GOP to China and Germany saying that all have “suspect” motives. Is Mr. Krugman really so naïve or is he purposefully wrong? Being a Nobel […]
