Obama Agenda a “Confidence Game,” Claims Cover of Newsweek
Any glance at a newsstand will reveal one magazine after another proclaiming Barack Obama’s glorious ascent to power. Nothing at all wrong with that, given the undeniably historicity of his election, although I do wonder if the extra money the publishers are raking in by marketing to Obamania is...

Sow the Wind of Ignorance, Reap the Whirlwind of Tyranny
One of the most famous quotes attributed to our founding fathers was the warning that, to paraphrase, our republic would be doomed as soon as the voters learned to vote themselves goodies from the public treasury.

Was it President Obama’s speech to Congress about the glories of bloated government and increased dependency in its beneficence? Or was it the response by Louisiana governor Bobby Jindal’s response – or, more to the...
