Threaten to lower the U.S. government credit rating. When Standard & Poor's lowered its outlook for the United States from "stable" to "negative" on April 18, the news shot through congressional offices. An already hot fight over raising the national debt got even hotter. ... more  US Shariah Infiltrations (Part 2)Chuck Norris: While all eyes this week are on London's royal couple Prince William and Kate Middleton, my eyes are on an opening statement from the U.K.'s Daily Mail Reporter: "Women who do not wear headscarves are being threatened with violence and even death by Islamic extremists intent on imposing (Shariah) on parts of Britain." ... more  Debt Ceiling? It's Time for GOP To Let Chips FallDavid Limbaugh: The governing class in Washington has no excuse for not having addressed our spending issues and formulating a comprehensive federal debt retirement plan before we approached another debt ceiling threshold. ... more  Obama, Ryan and YouJohn C. Goodman: Both parties are being disingenuous about Medicare reform. So let me be the first to open Pandora's box and reveal three unpleasant truths. ... more  The Welfare State and the Selfish SocietyDennis Prager: In the contemporary world, where left-wing attitudes are regarded as normative, it is a given that capitalism, with its free market and profit motive, emanates from and creates selfishness, while socialism, the welfare state and the "social compact," as it is increasingly referred to, emanate from and produce selflessness. ... more    Jimmy Carter the Elder John Ransom: When I heard that former president Jimmy Carter was putting together a group he called the "Elders" with former Irish President Mary Robinson, I thought "Oh good. Folk music. Maybe Carter finally found something productive to do with his time." ... more  When Dictators Fall, Who Rises?

Get those miserable shekel-grubbing sons of camels!"? ... more  The Complete Conservative Matt Barber: What is the Tea Party? Who is the Tea Party? Big media types and the larger left have their demagogic spin: Tea Partyers are racist, backwoods, anti-government dunderheads with a predisposition toward domestic terrorism.
