Read striking commentary from conservative writer Daniel Larison on Huckabee’s promise in his presidential announcement speech: “As president, I promise you that we will no longer merely try to contain jihadism. We will conquer it.” Larison continues: This is in keeping with Republican hawks’ allergy to the concept of containment in any contemporary context, but […]
Stand with Rand
Rand Paul is standing strong against Hillary. He leads the GOP field in a general election poll. The last thing we need is another Bush or Clinton. According to the WSJ: In those matchups against four potential rivals, Mrs. Clinton topped Messrs. Bush and Rubio by 49% to 43%, and she topped Mr. Walker by 50% […]
“Peace, Commerce and Honest Friendship”
“It’s time for a debate about global interventionism,” writes the Cato Institute’s David Boaz, who hopes that Rand Paul will open the discussion on why peace and neutrality should be the United States’ cardinal principle. “Historical data show a strong correlation between U.S. involvement in international situations and an increase in terrorist attacks against the […]
Party of Cynics—A Joyless Ride
Hillary, writes Bret Stephens in the WSJ, is singing a Song of Herself. “She will say, do, and be pretty much anything to get elected.” It’s what Mr. Stephens calls the Clinton Bargain: “You can always count on their self-interest trumping other considerations, so you never have to fear that they can’t be bought.” In […]

War Dogs Show Their Teeth
Here nationalreview.com headlines: “Meet Jeb Bush’s National Security Advisor.” The advisor in question happens to be John Noonan. NR notes that Noonan has been a contributor to The Weekly Standard (the mouth piece for the neocon faction): Noonan’s hire is earning praise from the hawkish wing of the GOP and assuaging some early concerns among […]
Rally Behind an Elderly WASP?
President Obama has spent most of his years in the White House boasting that Democrats are the party of the future—the party of immigrants, ethnic minorities, young people, etc. But Marco Rubio’s and Ted Cruz’s inspiring only-in-America stories makes for a tedious backdrop to Hillary’s non-tipping story at Chipotle.
