In defense of marriage.
Conservatives generally oppose the idea of same-sex marriage. I am one of them and for what I consider to be my principled position, I have been called a gay basher, a bigot and a homophobe. I resolutely maintain that I am none of these.
A funeral procession.
NASA did its best to dress its deliveries of retired space shuttles to their respective final resting places as victory laps. They were no such thing. They were funeral processions.
We’re getting the Medicare we deserve.
On Monday, the 2012 Trustees Report on Medicare was released and the news isn’t as bad as you might think. It’s worse.
No longer our own masters.
The erosion of liberty happens in increments. Few alive today know that the federal income tax as we know it started at a mere one percent on all incomes up to an amount equal to $10.5 million in today's dollars.
Let Obama have his “Buffett Rule.”
Fine, Mr. President. We’ll give you what you want. But only if you agree to go out in public and accept responsibility, in advance, on behalf of the Democratic Party and liberals everywhere, for the results.
What about the Trayvon Martins whose names we̵...
As is their long-standing practice, the race hustlers are using tragedy, in this case the death of a young black kid, as a tool for the advancement of their own agendas and their own very personal interests.

Forget the esoterica of the constitutional arguments. Forget that Congress has arrogated to itself power over your life on a scale never before seen. The real problem with Obamacare is that upwards of four out of ten in the United States believe that entitlement on such a scale is even possible.
Obamacare turns two.

Obamacare's second birthday is coming and going today almost totally uncelebrated. Proud father Barack Obama had everybody over to the house on the day his namesake was born. But today he, and Obamacare's mother, Nancy Pelosi aren't saying a word.
Lessons from the loo.

Try to imagine the bureaucratic gridlock of a city of fewer than 100,000 trying to procure toilet paper for a few city buildings scaled up to say, the size of the bureaucracy of an entire country trying to procure health care for 310 million citizens.

If you're frustrated or scared I think I know why. Not only is nothing being done about our problems, little of use is even being said.

By his ham-handedness, Rush Limbaugh turned the event of a college student's testimony before Congress into a wasted opportunity to expose the folly of limitless entitlement.

There's no money left in the U.K. and there's no money left here. The only difference is that the coalition government is admitting as much in Britain while politicians on both sides of the aisle here in the U.S. talk of our dismal finances only in oblique terms.

If we here in the land of the free have arrived at the place where bureaucrats are being hired by the state to pull snap inspections on the sack lunches of pre-school children, we're not nearly as free as we'd like to think.

It finally has become clear to me that I have insufficiently appreciated what is actually motivating those that argue in favor of mandated health plan coverage of contraceptives. The word "free" explains it all.
I’m now Catholic. (So are you.)

As a result of the arrogance of an administration that believes that there is no aspect of American life into which it does not have the unlimited right to intrude, we are all Catholics now.

Author’s Note
When I was a young man trying to break in to the radio business, one of the biggest radio stations in the country was Dallas's KLIF 1190 AM.
The station was owned by broadcasting pioneer Gordon McLendon. McLendon was known for his sharply-written editorials. Those editorials were, however, a one-way street. There was no practical way for the listener to respond.
But that is no longer the case. With the the advent of the Internet, lectures have turned into dialogues.
That's my hope for this website. I say what's on my mind. You respond by saying what's on yours.
That's why we call it You Tell Me.
