JOSEPH FARAH — Go figure. Wouldn't you expect me to be about the last guy to get a call from Barack Obama's 2012 campaign asking for donations? I got one recently. Not only did I get one from a very sweet young lady, but she seemed to be certain I was on a list of previous Obama supporters from 2008... (more)

MICHELLE MALKIN — Immediately after President Obama took office, his Hollywood benefactors clamored for the creation of a "Secretary of Culture."

WASHINGTON TIMES — Liberals have driven the debt-ceiling debate into the class-warfare swamp, promising most Americans they will continue to get something for nothing. This is a painless proposition for demagogues; the vast majority of Americans are not "rich" so it's easy to propose that those earning more money should fix the problems created by big-spending politicians. This undermines America's entrepreneurial spirit... (more)

NAT BROWN — That the mainstream media have a liberal bias is hardly a belief limited to those on the right. Indeed, many liberals and even media personalities themselves will readily agree. But is it possible to scientifically measure media bias? Can one statistically prove its existence and determine precisely how strong it is? In his new book, Left Turn: How Liberal Media Bias Distorts the American Mind, UCLA political-science professor Tim Groseclose attempts to do precisely that... (more)

JIM LACEY — Regulators regulate. In the absence of adult supervision they still regulate. Think about that a moment. Every morning tens of thousands of persons (no one really knows how many) go to work, with no higher calling than making regulations that the rest of us have to live with. Who voted for them?...

SEN. JIM DEMINT — If conservatives want to continue our successes in 2012, it is essential we understand why we were so successful in 2010. The 2006 and 2008 elections were disastrous for Republicans... (more)

WASHINGTON TIMES — Last November proved voters are eager for new blood in Washington.

DENNIS PRAGER — While liberals are certain about the moral superiority of liberal policies, the truth is that those policies actually diminish a society's moral character.

WES VERNON, RA ANALYST — In trying to cope with the debt ceiling, the Republicans are re-learning that the country cannot be run from Capitol Hill -- not from both legislative houses, let alone one.
