PolitiFact and Political Lies

By: David French – nationalreview.com – August 15, 2019 By excusing the lies Senators Warren and Harris told about Michael Brown’s death, the fact-checking site abandoned its mission. In theory, fact-checking is a valuable media enterprise. No one will do it perfectly — human beings are fallible, after all — but to do it well requires a kind of flinty moral…

Three Political Truths Democrats Can’t Handle

By: Alan S. Blinder – wsj.com – August 14, 201 In my book “Hard Heads, Soft Hearts” (1987), I bemoaned that it was difficult to be both a Democrat and an economist. Democrats, I wrote, often advocated economic policies that were well-intentioned but softheaded. Yes, ends matter, but so do means. Later, it became easy to be a Democrat and an…

Are Christians Really NOT Talking About Important Issues?

By: Michael Brown – stream.org – August 12, 2019 Update: The Christian Post reported on Tuesday that Sampson responded to Brown’s column, clarifying he hasn’t lost his faith, but it’s “on incredibly shaky ground.” I just read the news that Marty Sampson, a popular Hillsong song writer, is leaving the faith.

Extreme Policies Against Guns

By: Kimberley A. Strassel – wsj.com – August 8, 2019 Democrats insist there’s no more urgent job than ensuring Donald Trump is a one-term president.
