Fourteen years after 9/11, we still lack a strategy. Congress should lead with hearings on the enemy and how to prevail. By  NEWT GINGRICH The United States has been at war with radical Islamist terrorism for at least 35 years, starting with the November 1979 Iranian seizure of the U.S. Embassy in Tehran and taking of 52 American hostages. President…

In the wake of President Obama’s pathetic disengagement over the Islamic jihadist attacks on Paris, people are once again decrying his lack of leadership, but the problem is something more fundamental than leadership. Even if Obama were a gifted leader, when it comes to many issues, especially confronting radical Islam, he wouldn’t know where to lead us. If you misapprehend…

The State of the Union address is coming, which means it’s time for President Obama to propose new federal entitlements. His latest gift horse from taxpayers comes under the pretext of improving America’s workforce: free community college. Community colleges are public state or local institutions, often two- or three-year programs, that attempt to narrow the skills gap for high-school graduates…

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, or hanging out in the White House with nothing to do, you no doubt have heard about President Obama’s conspicuous absence at yesterday’s Paris peace march. After all, there were over 40 world leaders in attendance but nary a White House bigwig in site. Well, the Obama team has admitted their mistake, although with…

In the latest challenge to Texas’ so-called “pro-life law of the century” (passed as H.B. 2), last week a three-judge panel of the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals heard the case Whole Woman’s Health v.

CNN’s Jake Tapper…

Unless you’ve been living in a cave lately, you might have noticed there seems to be an ongoing onslaught against our Judeo-Christian traditions and beliefs. It’s happening on virtually every front in our culture – in schools, in the media and movies, in the public arena. Many elitists today interpret the First Amendment in such a way as to turn…

“There is none as blind as those who will not see. The most deluded people are those who chose to ignore what they already know.” According to what I could find during my two-minute Internet research session, the above saying is an old English proverb first attributed to Sir John Hayward in 1546. But the sentiments expressed could easily be…

All due respect to Adam, but his understatement is almost a scandal. We’ve posted a lot of incredibly stupid sound bites from MSNBC and other places around here, but I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a dumber exchange. I don’t know who the guy is making the astoundingly obtuse comparison between Jerry Falwell and a bunch of cold-blooded murderers but,…
