7/3/2009 The Meaning Of Ricci
by Charles Krauthammer Comment
The Supreme Court's ruling in Ricci v. DeStefano -- that white firefighters suffered illegal discrimination when a promotional test on which they did well was thrown out because not enough blacks did well -- will have no effect on Sonia Sotomayor's nomination to the Supreme Court. While overturned on Ricci, she is protected by the four di ... READ MORE
7/3/2009 Welcome To Obamacare Theater
by Michelle Malkin Comment
The White House sure likes to put on a show. Fresh off its joint stage production with ABC News, the Obama administration broadcast another health-care propaganda play this week under the guise of a citizen "town hall." Chicago consigliere and senior adviser Valerie Jarrett managed the floor and human props for Obama. In a telling moment ... READ MORE
7/3/2009 Sotomayor And Quotas
by Linda Chavez Comment
The Supreme Court's decision this week in the New Haven firefighters case may cause problems for its newest prospective member, Judge Sonia Sotomayor. The court found in favor of a group of white and Hispanic firefighters who were denied promotions despite having passed the city's promotion exams with flying colors. The city threw out the ...

7/3/2009 Hands Off Honduras!
by Pat Buchanan Comment
Last Saturday, Honduran soldiers marched into the presidential palace, bundled up President Manuel Zelaya and put him on a plane for Costa Rica. The ouster had been ordered by the Supreme Court and approved by the Congress, as Zelaya was attempting an illegal referendum to change the Honduran constitution so he could run for another term. ...

7/3/2009 Wrong Again
by Oliver North Comment
WASHINGTON — It took the Obama administration eight days to figure out whether Iranians being gunned down for protesting a fraudulent election and demanding basic civil liberties deserved to be acknowledged by the president of the United States. It took the O-Team less than eight hours to side with Cuba's Fidel Castro, Venezuela's Hugo Ch ... READ MORE
7/3/2009 But for the grace of God ...
by Suzanne Fields Comment
What a fortnight this has been for observing the human animal in his natural habitat. We're reminded daily of the clay feet, the wounded psyches, the angst of the exploiters and the anger of the exploitees. Their behavior runs the table, from naive foibles to deep, tragic flaws, linking the venal with the vulnerable. All is writ large in ... READ MORE
7/2/2009 Martha's Big Adventure - I'd Rather Be Liked
by Martha Randolph Carr Comment
Martha’s Big Adventure – I’d Rather Be Liked By Martha Randolph Carr My old mantra was that I’d rather be liked than most anything else. There was a constant check and balance going on in my brain weighing any new information against achieving that goal. Striving at being in a perpetual state of liked always won. The quick check-in was s ... READ MORE
7/2/2009 Murdock: Green-Energy Tax Cuts Over Cap-And-Trade
by Deroy Murdock Comment
You cannot fight something with nothing. This simple fact should be chiseled in stone above the House and Senate Republican cloakrooms. House Republicans energetically debated the cap-and-trade bill's myriad shortcomings last week. Alas, they never presented a riveting alternative that would have rallied free-marketeers and further split ... READ MORE
7/2/2009 'Reconciliation' To Pass Health Bill Won't Work
by Morton Kondracke Comment
Liberal health-reform advocates have talked about ramming a reform plan -- including a Medicare-like public insurance option -- through the Senate with only 51 Democratic votes. But a leading Senate player says it won't work. If an attempt is made to pass health reform under "reconciliation" rules -- requiring just a simple majority vote ... READ MORE
7/2/2009 Mission Not Accomplished In Iraq, But It's Coming Soon
by Donna Brazile Comment
The Fourth of July is a special time to celebrate what we all share in common as citizens of the United States of America: freedom. We are fortunate to live in a country with bountiful resources and an enduring spirit of liberty and justice for all. Over the past few weeks, I have been thinking about the people who live in the Middle Ea ... READ MORE
7/2/2009 GOP Discovers A Taxing Issue
by Donald Lambro Comment
WASHINGTON -- Republican prospects in next year's Senate races are not good, with most analysts forecasting deeper GOP losses, though they could be offset by some Democratic upsets. Democratic Sen. Chris Dodd of Connecticut is running behind in the polls as a result of the role the Banking Committee chairman played in the housing-bubble d ... READ MORE
7/2/2009 Iraq Is Victorious ... Over The 'Foreign' U.S.?
by Diana West Comment
I've been stewing over something really lousy that Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki has been saying since June 20: that Iraqis have won a "great victory" over the "foreign presence in Iraq." That "great victory," as he calls it, is the June 30 withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq's cities. That "foreign presence," as he calls it, is th ... READ MORE
7/2/2009 For Obama, Court Cases That Matter
by David Broder Comment
The implicit message, delivered by the Supreme Court majority in two of the most important decisions of the term that ended this week, is that racial discrimination is no longer as big a problem as we once thought. Neither the voting rights case out of Texas nor the affirmative action hiring case out of New Haven, Conn., said that explici ... READ MORE
7/2/2009 The Big 60: Use It Or Lose It!
by Bill Press Comment
Good things don't come easily. It took 239 days, but the Minnesota Supreme Court finally declared Al Franken the winner over Norm Coleman. And suddenly Democrats have 60 votes in the Senate -- and no more excuses. For six months, we've heard nothing but complaining from Democrats: Our hands are tied, they insisted. We can't deliver a publ ... READ MORE
7/2/2009 On Terror 'No-Fly' List, But Still Buying Guns
by Clarence Page Comment
For gun purchasers, should "no-fly" mean "no buy?" People on the government's terrorist watch list tried to buy guns almost 1,000 times in the last five years, a federal study finds. In nine out of 10 cases, federal authorities let them do it, the report finds, because there was no legal way to stop them. And that appears to be OK with th ... READ MORE
7/2/2009 A Letter To Sarah
by Jonah Goldberg Comment
Dear Governor Palin, You're blowing it. We haven't met, but you might remember I was one of the first columnists to tout you for John McCain's running mate. I cheered you mightily when Senator McCain selected you, and I still believe that you were the smartest choice he could have made given the obstacles before him. I'm also assuming you ... READ MORE
7/2/2009 Minutemen's Fifteen Minutes Are Just About Up
by Mary Sanchez Comment
Sometimes I don't know whether to laugh or cry at the antics of the anti-immigrant lunatic fringe. Lately, it's been a bit of both. Shawna Forde, a loyalist of the so-called Minuteman movement, which advocates paramilitary policing of the U.S. border with Mexico, was recently charged with orchestrating a "raid" in which an Arizona man and ...

7/2/2009 The Republican Blame Game
by Jules Witcover Comment
WASHINGTON -- Republican National Chairman Michael Steele has finally found the answer to the world of foes that has descended on his party ever since its loss of the White House last November. He has located it in the latest blow, the Minnesota Supreme Court's ruling that Democrat Al Franken legitimately ousted Republican Sen. Norm Colem ... READ MORE
7/2/2009 Lobbyists On A Roll: Gutting Reform On Banking, Energy, And Health Care
by Joe Galloway Comment
Remember all that change Americans voted for in November? Well, there's been a change in the plans for change. The detour has come courtesy of a familiar nemesis: DC lobbyists who, this year alone, have watered-down, gutted or out-and-out killed ambitious plans for reforming Wall Street, energy and health care. The media like to pretend t ... READ MORE
7/2/2009 'I Made A Mistake' Excuse Getting Flimsier By The Minute
by Leonard Pitts Jr Comment
Next time some politician goes before the cameras with his figurative pants down around his metaphoric ankles and says, "I made a mistake," let's form a mob and drag him from the podium. You bring the lanterns, I'll bring the pitchforks. South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford is, of course, the latest. Having bought plane tickets, told his staf ... READ MORE
7/2/2009 Firefighter Case Shows Seamy Side Of Racial Politics
by Michael Barone Comment
The Supreme Court's decision in Ricci v. DeStefano, the case of the New Haven firefighters, was a ringing endorsement of the Civil Rights Act of 1964's ban on racial discrimination and a repudiation of Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor's decision in the Second Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals. While five justices flatly rejected Sotomayo ... READ MORE
7/2/2009 '45 Million Americans' -- Who Are Those Guys? Part 3
by Larry Elder Comment
"President Barack Obama says that he can pay for his goal to provide health care insurance for every American without it. Why isn't that good enough for you?" Elder: Yes, the President says that he can "pay for" his goal of providing health insurance for every American without it. Care to bet on that? When government proposes a program, t ... READ MORE
7/2/2009 A Health-Care Greeting: Welcome To Wal-Mart
by Froma Harrop Comment
Americans agree on health care. Ask them, "Who should pay for it," and they all answer, "Not me." But follow up with, "Who, then?" and you have a fight on your hands. Wal-Mart has greatly improved the quality of the conversation with its newfound support for requiring employers to help pay for their workers' health coverage. Its bombshell ... READ MORE
7/1/2009 Obama's Failed Iran Policy
by Floyd and Mary Beth Brown Comment
Obama’s Failed Iran Policy By Floyd and Mary Beth Brown Freedom beats intrinsically within the heart of every human. Today we can hear the thumping rhythm in Iran, but our current President, Barack Obama, has turned a deaf ear. He stands in almost mute silence as the protesters in Tehran are murdered, beaten and even raped. Charles Krau ... READ MORE
