White Firefighters Win Case
The Supreme Court today narrowly ruled in favor of white firefighters in New Haven, Conn., who said they were denied promotions because of their race, reversing a decision by Judge Sonia Sotomayor and others that had come to play a large role in the consideration of her nomination for the high court.
Congressman's Wife Guilty in Bribery Case
Court records indicate that on two occasions she accepted envelopes stuffed with cash from a consultant working for Synagro. One of the meetings took place in the parking lot of a family recreation center, the other occurred outside a McDonald's restaurant. And, believe it or not, this is the wife of the Chairman of the JUDICIARY Committee in the U.S. House of Representatives. Where the hell is the outrage? Shouldn't he resign? Oh! this is not a white male.
Buchanan: America Following California Down the Drain
In just a few weeks time, California hits the wall. And Americans should take a good, long look at the fiscal and social wreck of the Golden Land, because California is at a place to which all of America is heading.
On Tape, a Crude Nixon
"Oh! Oh, God!" Nixon said with a sigh. "It erodes our confidence, our strength. They're untrustworthy. . . . Look at the Justice Department, it's full of Jews." Both men agreed that Nixon should try to reduce the Jewish influence in a second term.
A Sick Sotomayor Supporter
Judge Sotomayor has ardent defenders—most prominently, Democratic Manhattan District Attorney Robert Morgenthau. Barack Obama and the MSM apparently believe that Morgenthau, regularly described as "legendary" and "iconic”, can make the damning evidence against Sotomayor, and logic itself, disappear.
Davis Hits Party Wall In Alabama
"As he embarks on his bid to become the first African-American governor of a Deep South state since Reconstruction, Rep. Artur Davis (D-Ala.) is meeting stiff resistance from an unlikely source: key members of Alabama’s Democratic establishment."
California is Crashing!
California's historic budget crisis threatens to devastate a public education system that was once considered a national model but now ranks near the bottom in school funding and academic achievement. And that's not all.
Twittering Iran: What the “New Media” Means
There has been a lot of ink spilled in recent days, particularly with “traditional” broadcasters unable to operate, over the significance of media like Twitter and Facebook for the demonstrations over the Iranian elections.

Conservatives in the Wilderness
The danger liberalism poses to the American experiment comes from its disposition to deplete rather than replenish the capital required for self-government. Entitlement programs overextend not only financial but political capital.
Miss Affirmative Action, 2009
By her own admission Sotomayor got where she is by affirmative action, not merit. And she wants to practice this philosophy on the Supreme Court.
Rush Hits Birth Certificate Issue
Nationwide attention about President Obama's lack of producing a long-form birth certificate proving his eligibility for office got a boost today when top-rated radio host Rush Limbaugh joked about the subject in comparing Obama to God.
Canada's ObamaCare Precedent
"Americans need to ask a basic question: Why are they rushing into a system of government-dominated health care when the very countries that have experienced it for so long are backing away?"
Does the Nation of Our Parents Exist Anymore?
Limbaugh rightfully asked and said, “Who’s really changed? I’ve been who I am for 20 years. When it comes to core beliefs and principles, I haven’t changed…'' It's people like Colin Powell who have changed.
Sotomayor And The Politics Of Race
"What is most notable about the Sotomayor nomination is its almost perfect predictability. Somehow we all simply know -- like it or not -- that Hispanics are now overdue for the gravitas of high office. And our new post-racialist president is especially attuned to this chance to have a "first" under his belt, not to mention the chance to further secure the Hispanic vote. And yet it was precisely the American longing for post-racialism -- relief from this sort of racial calculating -- that lifted Mr. Obama into office.The Sotomayor nomination commits the cardinal sin of identity politics: It seeks to elevate people more for the political currency of their gender and ethnicity than for their individual merit."
Obama Pushing Homosexuality
While President Obama was in Cairo preaching Islamist propaganda to the ears of Muslim students this last week, his administration was carrying out an even more sinister agenda. While he was willfully misleading the television audience as to the "tolerance" that Islam allows, he quietly nominated a man who teaches students to hate parents.
