 The Money of FoolsThomas Sowell: Seventeenth century philosopher Thomas Hobbes said that words are wise men's counters, but they are the money of fools. That is as painfully true today as it was four centuries ago. ... more  The "Young Guns" Bring Out the Big GunsJillian Bandes: Reps. Eric Cantor, Kevin McCarthy and Wisconsin's Fiscal Dreamboat (WFD) — also known as Rep. Paul Ryan — are releasing a new book today that outlines their plan for the Republican Party. ... more  Even Hillary Agrees!Chuck Norris: If Secretary of State Hillary Clinton warned last week that our rising national debt "poses a national security threat," should President Barack Obama or anyone in his administration be suggesting any economic plan that would increase it in any way? ... more  Purging EvilCal Thomas: Terry Jones, the Florida "minister" who threatened to burn the Koran on the anniversary of September 11, is as much a distraction from the real challenge facing America as was Senator Joseph McCarthy when it came to communism. ... more  The Times, the Mosque and Islam -- No Moral NuanceDennis Prager: One of the most common self-assessments of the left is that conservatives rarely see nuances in moral questions, while liberals always do. ... more  Who Is the Enemy? Pat Buchanan: The Rev. Terry Jones may just have exposed the ultimate futility of America's war in Afghanistan. Consider the portrait of frustrated impotence America presented to the world last week. ... more  GOP Insiders Wary of Landslide PredictionsByron York: ... more    Obama's Tiresome Tolerance Lectures David Limbaugh: Why did President Obama choose tolerance as the subject of his speech at the Pentagon ostensibly to commemorate the victims of 9/11? ... more  Ten Questions You're Not Supposed to Ask About Islam John Hawkins: Sometimes, when people get emotional while discussing radical Islam, they tend to paint Muslims with far too broad a brush. ... more  The Harsh Bigotry of Their Expectations Debra J. Saunders: Why did Florida pastor Terry Jones garner all that media attention last week for threatening to burn Qurans on Saturday's 9/11 anniversary? ... more  Culture Challenge of the Week: Two Minutes of Fame Rebecca Hagelin: When a diminutive Florida "preacher" threatened to burn a copy of the Koran on the anniversary of 9-11 it had an international impact for one reason. ... more  More Hate Crime Hypocrisy Virgil Goode: ... more  Green Protectionism's Recycled Playbook George Landrith: If union bosses and a few industrial titans have their way, a hearing in a Washington, D.C. bureaucratic backroom this week will lead to higher prices on ordinary daily goods for virtually every consumer in America. ... more  America's Anti-Tax Pedigree J. T. Young: While the line between legitimate and illegitimate taxes was clear in colonists' minds, it should be equally clear that the revolution was not simply over tax legitimacy. Americans did not just hate taxes in theory, but in practice. The empire had many advantages for America, particularly in trade and defense. Still the cost of the accompanying taxes was too much. ... more  Hijacking the First Amendment and Flying it into the Jefferson Memorial Scott Wheeler: We have heard more angry attacks on Americans from the so-called peaceful Muslim world for the mere mention that a Koran might be burned than we have ever heard from them in condemning their fellow Muslims for perpetrating terrorist attacks on behalf of their religion. ... more  Good News Going Forward Rich Tucker: This summer was filled with bad economic news.

Despite the attention the current administration is lavishing on Ohio – President Obama has visited the state nearly a dozen times since taking office – Buckeye State Democrats are losing ground, and time is running out. ... more  Merit Pay: A Start toward Making Sure Teachers Follow Their Job Descriptions Mary Grabar: Howls of protest are coming from Los Angeles teachers whose evaluations on their effectiveness in raising student test scores have been published in the Los Angeles Times.
