The Middle East: Reporting an Enigma
Alan Caruba

When President Obama delivers a speech on why he is going to send more thousands of U.S. troops and spend more billions on the eight-year-old conflict in Afghanistan, it would be a good idea to better understand why so much of what is reported from the Middle East suffers a great disconnect from the truth.

Someone Please Slay the Climate Change Turkey
John Lillpop

With the exception of several million unlucky turkeys and Tiger Woods, most Americans have a reasonable shot at escaping the Thanksgiving holiday unscathed and not all that worse for the experience.

Ex-Con Counts on "Faith Community" to Pass Health Care
Cliff Kincaid

The media furor over the White House state dinner crashers ignores the convicted felon who was invited to attend with the approval of Obama’s inner circle. The ex-convict, Robert W. Creamer, is a friend of White House adviser David Axelrod and the husband of Democratic Rep. Jan Schakowsky of Illinois. A major Democratic Party political strategist, he is the author of a 628-page book that describes how the Democrats can become the permanent majority party by passing a national health care bill and giving amnesty to illegal immigrants.

Germans tried to warn us of climate fraud
Dennis Avery

The airwaves are full of the “secret” codes and emails from Britain’s Hadley climate research center. New Zealand is looking at the upward trend in the “official” graph of its recent temperatures—while the country’s raw temperature data show no warming. Now researchers are digging into the Hadley data to find if the rest of the world’s climate data have been similarly “adjusted.”

Silent Scandal
Nancy Morgan

If a scandal isn’t reported by the media, does that mean it never happened? For the millions of Americans who don’t watch Fox News or listen to talk radio, the answer is a resounding yes.

Fundamental "Change"
Larry Wilke

It’s getting closer to crunch time with each passing day.  The “crunch” however, is the sound of the breaking of the US economy and the shattering of the bones of the middle class of this once great nation.  When the going gets tough, the liberals create a “commission” or a “panel”.

Health Care Crime: Phony Medications in Your Medicine Cabinet
Jim Kouri, CPP

With the Obama Administration and Democrat leaders in both houses of the US Congress desperately pushing a major overhaul—many say government takeover—of US health care, a report obtained by the National Association of Chiefs of Police’s Fraud & White Collar Crime Committee sheds light on the fraud and corruption already existing in government medical programs. And one can only imagine the amount of corruption that will occur with total government control of physicians and pharmaceuticals.

The American Public School System is a Failure
J. D. Longstreet

I was enroute to someplace, or other a few mornings ago, when I had to stop my truck for a school bus to load some reluctant students.

Why Conservatives Have Trouble Getting Elected
Warner Todd Huston

The reasons that I could never get elected to any government position is the same reason why conservatives have a tough time getting elected and, if they end up elected, can’t govern in this era of the ill-educated voter. First I’ll lay out my main principles…

The Global Carbon Footprint Scam
Alan Caruba

I never cease to marvel at the environmental alarmists who create one “crisis” after another using wretchedly bad “science” to support their scams. On Tuesday, November 24, the Global Footprint Network is going to “release new data on the Ecological Footprint of 100 nations and humanity as a whole, and the current ledgers are sobering.”
