Big Government Worked Better in the Industrial Age; Not so Much in Digital Era

 Earlier this week, I was thinking of writing a column about the lying and duplicity of Obamacare backers who argued that the difference between provisions providing subsidies in states with state-run health exchanges and providing no subsidies in states with federal exchanges resulted from inadvertence or a typographical error. Typical among them was MIT health […] Read More →

House Officially Votes to Sue Barack Obama

 The Affordable Care Act, better known as Obamacare, was duly passed by Congress in 2010, Democrat shenanigans notwithstanding.

The GOP-led House of […] Read More →

Guy Benson  Politico’s latest public opinion survey of competitive 2014 states and districts is reminiscent of NPR’s similarly-designed poll released a month ago. President Obama’s job approval rating is underwater by double digits (43/57), while the GOP owns a two-point edge on the generic Congressional ballot (which typically favors Democrats), and a seven-point lead on […] Read More →

Sen. Cruz in Charge of the Conservative Movement

 In what appears to be the ultimate modern demonstration of “drinking the Kool-Aid,” Republicans across the spectrum seem to have entered a pact in sticking together to defend, and even celebrate, campaign tactics predicated on gross voter fraud and manipulation of minority voters. In fact, given recent campaign finance disclosures, it seems clear some Senate […] Read More →

 I recently returned home after two weeks of engagements in New Zealand and Australia focusing on empowerment through reading. The Kiwis and Aussies are not very different from Americans, even though they inhabit the opposite side of the globe.
