WASHINGTON TIMES — Mitt Romney's presidential campaign and the super PAC accepting million-dollar contributions to support him are barred by law from coordinating, yet they share many of the same top-level workers, a fact both groups have helped mask by paying high-level aides through companies that appear to exist largely as conduits to avoid disclosure...

RICHARD A. VIGUERIE — The Obama administration's recent moves to force religious institutions, particularly those associated with the Catholic Church, to pay for medical procedures that are contrary to church teaching has ignited a firestorm among Catholics. But the fear of where Obama's flagrant violation of the Constitution is leading America is not limited to Catholics... (more)

JOSEPH FARAH — Barack Obama has a curious idea about the way freedom of religion is supposed to work. He mandates that everyone should be forced to provide services and funding that a significant percentage of the population finds morally objectionable. Then he backpedals and suggests that some institutions, such as the Catholic Church, be exempted from those requirements... (more)

DAVID LIMBAUGH — So we should all be grateful that President Barack Obama is just now coming out for a corporate tax rate cut? But does anyone really believe he's had a supply-side epiphany? That this is an election year surely wouldn't have anything to do with his apparent change of heart, would it?... (more)

MICHELLE MALKIN — If you like how the Obama administration's multibillion-dollar "investments" in bankrupt solar companies have turned out, you'll love the latest federal loan program to nowhere. It's the Obamacare loyalty rewards program for progressives... (more)

JOSEPH FARAH — How can Ron Paul be so right about domestic economic issues and so wrong about ... well, just about everything else? It's puzzling to me. And sad. A perfect illustration of what I'm talking about came recently in an interview Paul did with CNN... (more)

TOM TANCREDO — One of the most reliable truisms in politics is full of irony: When it comes to predicting presidential elections, conventional wisdom is nearly always wrong. Washington pundits talk and write mostly for themselves, and certainly not for the history books. If they were paid according to their track records as political prognosticators, they would all be on food stamps... (more)

BRYAN FISCHER — The mainstream media, as obtuse as they are, do not realize that they are playing right into Rick Santorum's hands. They are doing a better job than Santorum ever could of getting his message of unapologetic social conservatism out to the American public. The mainstream media have now become the Santorum SuperPAC... (more)

RICH LOWRY — The media has unleashed the hounds on Rick Santorum. He was last seen a step ahead of the braying pack, trying to explain that he hadn't accused President Barack Obama of being a crypto-Muslim. The former Pennsylvania senator criticized the president's environmentalism as representative of a "phony theology"... (more)
