Socialist or Fascist?

It bothers me a little when conservatives call Barack Obama a “socialist.” He certainly is an enemy of the free market, and wants politicians and bureaucrats to make the fundamental decisions about the economy. But that does not mean that he wants government ownership of the means of production, which has long been a standard definition of socialism.

Repeal ObamaCare & Save American Healthcare

Whether ObamaCare is struck down in the Supreme Court or legislatively in 2012, we must lay “the political and intellectual groundwork” for what is to replace this government takeover of healthcare and with it one sixth of the private sector economy. Failure to deliver a clear message as to the possibilities for constructive change will result in more of the same Federal Government and bureaucratic distortions of the healthcare system.

“Hollywood Hypocrites” by Jason Matera

Jason Mattera, 28, is a New York Times bestselling author, the youngest editor of a national periodical, Human Events, and the host of “The Jason Mattera Show” on News Talk Radio 77 WABC in New York.

Mattera’s brand-new book, Hollywood Hypocrites: The Devastating Truth About Obama’s Biggest Backers (Simon & Schuster) is already creating buzz. Mark Levin hailed Hollywood Hypocrites as “eye-popping, exhaustively, researched, and absolutely hilarious” and the late Andrew Breitbart called it a “barrage of body blows to Hollywood’s holier-than-thou limousine liberals.”

Justices may not stop at dashing Obamacare

The Obama administration’s defense of Obamacare before the Supreme Court on Tuesday was reviewed as stumbling and bumbling by news reporters, foreshadowing the Big Government clumsiness and ineptitude a universal health care system would offer the public. Justice Anthony Kennedy ripped through the argument that because Congress has the constitutional power to regulate interstate commerce, it has the power to regulate anything. Solicitor General Donald Verrilli was overmatched and ill-prepared, displaying once again why socialism fails: It leads to the appointment of unemployable nephews and political hangers on to positions for which they are ill-suited

Global Warming and National Suicide

Beginning in 1856, the Xhosa tribe in today’s South Africa destroyed its own economy. They killed an estimated half-million of their own cattle (which they ordinarily treated with great care and respect), ceased planting crops, and destroyed their grain stores. By the end of 1857, between thirty and fifty thousand Xhosa had starved to death — a third to a half of the population. The British herded survivors of the once-powerful tribe into labor camps, and white settlers took much of their land, as reported by Richard Landes in Heaven on Earth: The Varieties of the Millennial Experience.
