Steyer Takes Handoff From Washington Post More Evidence of Collaboration

To recap what by now is a familiar story: the Washington Post ran an article suggesting that Koch Industries would be the principal beneficiary of the Keystone Pipeline by virtue of its minor leasehold interest in Canadian tar sands-a complete fiction. I took the article apart here and here, pointing out, among many other things, that Keystone would actually be damaging to Koch s economic interests.

Hollywood doesn't do politics -- at least not politics as it is practiced in the real world.

New Jersey legislator urges political boycott of major NJ employer

Before Democrat class warfare commandos became obsessed with Bain Capital, they spent many enjoyable hours attacking Koch Industries. Far-left tinfoil hat types love to paint the Koch brothers as supervillains, whose influence on politics is somehow inherently nefarious - unlike, say, hard-left billionaire George Soros.

Have Our News Organizations Gone Crazy

I wrote here about MSNBC s campaign to tie the Koch brothers to George Zimmerman s shooting of Trayvon Martin. That effort was, it is fair to say, insane, but it apparently inspired one or more liberals to take MSNBC s theories a step farther. Someone wrote - I think it was on Facebook - that Koch Industries had paid for Zimmerman's legal defense and/or put up his bail money. Other liberals happily repeated the claim, to the point where Snopes deemed it a rumor worth addressing.

Romney: I’m the Ideal Tea Party Candidate

"Mitt Romney said today he's "the ideal candidate" for the Tea Party movement because his stance on issues lines up "pretty darn well" with the movement he says will soon realize that GOP frontrunner Newt Gingrich isn t their best option for president." --- Romney was probably basing that on having recently received S.C. Governor Nikki Haley s endorsement, but the Tea Partiers I know are saying that s not proof that Romney has climbed aboard the Tea Party platform, but rather that Haley has stepped off it.

Former Clinton Appointee: Calling Tea Party ‘Racist’ Is Just a Cynical Political Ploy

But getting them to spend their time purging their ranks and having candidates distance themselves should help Democrats win in November [2010].

Reagan’s Growth Lesson for Obama

The difference in the Obama and Reagan policy approaches stems from diametrically opposed economic philosophies, which in turn stem from different life experiences: Mr. Reagan spent 34 years in the private sector, including time as the head of a labor union, prior to becoming governor of California in 1966. But Mr. Obama spent only his first year out of college in the private sector -- during which he wrote his mother that he felt as though he had "joined the enemy" -- before heading into non-profit "community organizing," a vacuous descriptor of an undefined profession involving political activism in which the main pursuit consists of procuring redistributive transfer payments from government.

As Matt Patterson pointed out in these pages, Obama is the Affirmative Action President. He was elected to make up for America's never-ending guilt about black folks. That obsessional guilt trip works so well that it's landed us in racial socialism, also called affirmative action. Marxism whips up resentments of the poor against the rich -- but in fact it empowers only the left. Well, racial socialism does the same thing. It whips up "people of color" against evil palefaces in order to empower the left. It's the Ku Klux Klan in new sheets.

"'Spreading the wealth' punishes success while setting America on course to greater dependency on government. Washington's insatiable desire to spend our children's inheritance on failed 'stimulus' plans and other misguided economic theories have given us record debt and left us with far too many unemployed."

After two years of desperate fighting and a cumulative loss to Israel of over one and a half percent of its population, the conflicted ended in a stalemate, with Israel holding a swath of land measuring 9 miles in width at its narrowest, and 71 miles at its broadest, extending 263 miles from the Lebanon border in the north through the Negev Desert in the south.

The results of that analysis have been repeatedly confused with the details of the memorandum of understanding with the Koch Foundation as proven by an article published by Inside Higher Ed.

Moreover, most "poor" Americans get the medical care they need, and they eat enough -- in fact, they eat too much.

The Truth about Islam and Book-Burning

The burning of books is an uncivil and distasteful act no matter where and under what circumstances. The senseless destruction of Egypt's precious ancient archives and historic texts in the Alexandria Library was one of these barbaric acts. Arab-Muslims committed this atrocity in and around the year 685 A.D., immediately after their invasion of Egypt. Many centuries' worth of pre-Islamic Egyptian and Coptic information was eradicated, leaving great gaps in history and causing many unanswered questions concerning Coptic links to Egypt's past.

Where are the Democrat Grown-ups

The United States faces momentous problems, potentially the most devastating issues in its 222 year history. Yet there is a political party, the Democrats, and their titular leader Barack Obama, who act as of this entire chapter in American history is a video game of gotcha with their political opponents who are at least seriously trying to solve some of the long term dilemmas the country faces.

Obama’s Israel Speech Fools Few

D" should no longer stand for "Democratic" but rather the "disastrous" Israeli policy of the Obama Administration. Those who support a secure Israel have to make an important choice. This is one of those defining moments when they need to step up to the plate and strongly support Israel's security and existence above everything else. Some current and former policy makers did just that in statements to American Thinker.

Barack Obama: Yet Another Roadblock to Zionism

Israelis and Americans alike were aghast this week when Barack Obama announced his policy on Israel's borders and settlements. He suggests that a peaceful resolution to the Arab-Israeli conflict could result if Israel withdraws her borders to the boundaries that existed prior to the Six Day War, where, in 1967, a clearly defensive Israel repelled attacks from its hostile Arab neighbors.

The Political Basis for the FairTax

As the current debate over fiscal reform suggests, very few proposals for fundamental changes in tax policy have the potential to command support across the ideological spectrum. The "FairTax" is the great exception. Correctly understood, the Fair Tax Act (HR 25, S13 with 67 cosponsors), which would replace almost all federal taxes with a direct tax on consumption, should appeal to conservatives, progressives, and libertarians alike.

The Unraveling of a Ponzi Scheme

The news media in this country are in a stupor. Either out of ignorance, or complete leftist bias and fraud to protect their socialist hero Barack Obama, the mainstream media has turned a blind eye toward the enormous disaster facing our economy.

Six myths about deniers

They've been compared to "flat earthers" and even "Holocaust deniers". And, as the recent "Climategate" email scandal reveals, they have been blacklisted in certain professional circles. Scientists who disagree with the current consensus on Anthropogenic Global Warming (AGW) are dismissed by some colleagues and politicians as ignorant and irrelevant.

Why Don’t We Hear About Soros’ Ties to Over 30 Major News Organizations

When liberal investor George Soros gave $1.8 million to National Public Radio , it became part of the firestorm of controversy that jeopardized NPR s federal funding.

GOP? What GOP?

With the 2012 presidential election fast-approaching, one has to wonder if the Grand Old Party will again manage to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. The Obama regime has certainly greased the skids for a GOP win but will the Republican National Committee (RNC) engineer another defeat as it did with candidacies of McCain and Dole?

Education Reformers Fight Back Against National Curriculum

The U.S. Department of Education has been gobbling up more turf over the last several years, issuing mandates and pushing a one-size-fits-all set of standards.

Slouching toward tyranny

For quite some time now the nation has witnessed the gradual erosion of freedom in this 'land of the free and hope of the brave.' During the era of the Progressives during the late 1800s and early 1900s we saw the first vestiges of this gradual erosion, and citizens began 'slouching toward tyranny' at first almost imperceptibly but later morphing into the fast-track we see today, particularly within the last 3 years.

Senate Seeks to Create Caesar

While all of America is distracted and focused on the death of Osama bin Laden, our President and his minions have been fast at work laying the groundwork for S. 679: Presidential Appointment Efficiency and Streamlining Act of 2011 to speed through the Senate and then make its way into the House and then to the President to sign.
