Add to myYahoo!Kimberley Strassel explains why Democrats are having such a hard time nationalizing healthcare. Turns out it costs a fortune. (No, Virginia, there is no Santa and the plan doesn?t ?pay for itself.?) And the way to collect enough money ? taxing generous employer-provided benefits ? has two big problems : The first is that about 99% of the Democratic Party is on record trashing the idea of taxing health benefits. Trasher-in-chief is none other than President Barack Obama, who mercilessly berat

Add to myYahoo!The Democrat supporters for agriculture are beginning to stand up the Obama?s Cap-and-Trade policy : A climate-change bill that won approval from the House Energy and Commerce Committee isn't getting the same reception from rural lawmakers.

Add to myYahoo!by Anthony Gregory On Wednesday, according to news reports, James W. Von Brunn, a longtime belligerent racist and anti-Semite, walked into the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum and opened fire, murdering a security guard before he himself was shot and neutralized. Good people everywhere recognize the vicious criminality of his attack, and the particular insidiousness of his motivation to lash out where he did. In reflecting on this tragedy, it is an appropriate time to contemplate the sanct

Add to myYahoo!By Chuck Baldwin June 12, 2009 When President George W. Bush was first elected back in 2000, I well remember the way Christian conservatives went gaga over him. They would deny it, of course, but it was more than hero worship: they acted as if he were a god. Life-size posters filled Christian bookstores. Religious broadcasters and televangelists swooned over him like 16-year-old girls used to swoon over Elvis Presley. Pastors invoked his name almost as a prayer. The Religious Right acted like
