In his latest column for the Washington Times, Milton Wolf marvels at the inability of our governing class to absorb the economic lessons of the past few years:
Never before in history has such overwhelming evidence failed to convince the smart-set governing class of the obvious: Government cannot create wealth.
So, who adds real value to the […]

WOLF: PROSPERITY STARTS WITH AMERICANS, NOT UNCLE SAM
WOLF: THE BAD LUCK PRESIDENT
Milton Wolf’s latest column in the Washington Times is as trenchant an indictment of Obamanomics as you will find. He begins with the excuses Obama offers for failure on the economy:
‘We had reversed the recession, avoided a depression, gotten the economy moving again,’ President Obama fantasized on the campaign stump in Iowa. ‘But over the last […]
SHOCKER: GOVT PROBABLY UNDERESTIMATING REAL COST OF MEDICARE BY $6 TRILLION
I know this will be hard to believe of those paragons of fiscal precision inside the Beltway, but it appears that official estimates of Medicare’s unfunded liability are too low:
Medicare’s long-term liabilities already are among the biggest drivers of future federal budget deficits. But the burden on taxpayers may be $6 trillion larger than official estimates.
Surely […]
VIDEO: CHARLES KRAUTHAMMER CALLS OBAMA “PATHETIC” ON DEBT PROBLEM
Krauthammer points out that this is one of the most crucial moments in American history and the President is voting “present”:
He hasn’t had this issue of debt on the table for two and a half years … he’s done absolutely nothing on this. And even today, after the gyrations in the market and after the […]
HSIEH ON THE DOWNGRADE: DEMS DECIDE TO SHOOT THE MESSENGER
Paul Hsieh has, in his latest contribution to Pajamas Media, found the perfect metaphor for the creepy reaction of the Democrats to the downgrade caused by their irresponsible policies:
Suppose you saw your doctor for a persistent headache. After performing a full battery of tests, he told you that your MRI scan showed a malignant brain tumor. Would you (1) […]
DID OBAMACARE CAUSE THE DOWNGRADE?
In my most recent column for the American Spectator, I wrote that ObamaCare is at least partially to blame for the high unemployment rate. While the voters made it obvious that we wanted the President and Congress to abandon their fixation on health care and focus on jobs, we were ignored. Thus, unemployment has hovered around 9% for […]
REPUBLICAN BUDGET DEFUNDS OBAMACARE
The GOP’s budget proposal was presented today by Rep. Paul Ryan, the Chairman of the House Budget Committee, and it purports to contain not a penny for ObamaCare:
The Republican proposal says one of its aims is ‘making sure that not a penny goes toward implementing the new [health care] law enacted last year.
This includes repealing […]
RYAN: OBAMA’S BUDGET “DEBT ON ARRIVAL”
I may be mistaken, but I get the feeling that the Chairman of the House Budget Committee, Pual Ryan, is not all that nuts about the President’s proposed budget:
Debt on arrival. D-E-B-T on arrival … Look, he raises spending everywhere. He raises taxes everywhere, increases borrowing. The trajectory of this budget is in the wrong direction. […]
VIDEO: DEM’S CLAIM THAT SOCIAL SECURITY IS “STABLE” FAILS THE LAUGH TEST
One reason the Dems are going to get hammered in the midterms is that they continue to tell whoppers (e.g. ObamaCare will reduce the federal deficit) that literally don’t pass the laugh test. In this video, the audience erupts into incredulous guffaws when Russ Carnahan ends a Bush-bashing digression with the absurd claim that Social Security […]
VIDEO: MOURNING IN AMERICA
This VERY powerful video, which Citizens for the Republic modeled after Ronald Reagan’s famous “Morning in America” ad, lays out precisely where we are after trusting the reins of government to irresponsible and dishonest people:
There’s mourning in America. Today, 15 million men and women won’t have the opportunity to go to work. Businesses shuttered. Twenty-nine […]
