the “Green” Movement

The highly publicized – first by the White House, now by the media – “Green Movement,” which subsidizes alternative energy while strangling hydrocarbon-based energy, is a near-perfect example of why government is the worst source...

Headed Straight for the Reef

We all watch in horror the tragedy of the cruise ship aground off Giglio Island. “Inexcusable!” is the universal cry. “Those reefs are on my chart,” says veteran sailor and FOX News host Geraldo Rivera. Anyone else see President Obama as Captain Schettino...

the Two Firsts Produce a First

Mitt Romney became the first Republican non-incumbent to win both Iowa caucuses [1] and New Hampshire primary contests. While this provides great momentum (and that’s no small thing in political campaigns), it by no means anoints him. Returns from 69...

the Hawkeye Circus, er, Caucus

The first “First in the Nation” is now behind us, and all those left standing are now working the second “First in the Nation.” Iowa has played its traditional role of showing the candidates in flannel shirts and coveralls, sitting...

Iran’s New Toy

An hour after Iranian state television aired images purporting to show off a captured LockheedMartin RQ-170 Sentinel , General Norton Schwartz, the Air Force’s top uniformed officer, raised the specter of a foreign power copying the stealthy jet’s...
