(Thomas Mitchell) – Obamacare is a black hole into which taxpayer money is being poured. It is bad enough that the union-backed Nevada Health Co-op has gone belly up with little chance of it ever repaying its $66 million federal start-up loan, since it lost $42 million in the past year and a...

(Fred Weinberg) – I always enjoy watching liberals—undereducated by their own pathetic public schools—twist in the wind when someone of true conscience takes an action with which they disagree. It’s as if the left has cornered the market on conscience. Back when I was a boy in school, they were marching in Selma,...

(Jim Clark) – The liberal mindset is a wonder to behold. You have to wonder how they got through college without taking at least an introductory course in economics. The Seattle City Council has come up with an “answer” to the recent spike in gun violence . . . tax firearms out of existence. Yep,...
