With all the reports coming out that recommend we scale back
on life-saving medical exams there is one we might soon see from still another
group of experts.
This one concerns depression. It concludes that diagnosis,
medication and counseling won’t work anyway, so why bother trying? After ...

As with most things, the path that led Maj. Nidal Malik
Hasan to allegedly stage an attack on his fellow servicemen and -women at Fort
Hood was complex. No doubt his minority status had something to do with it,
although an awful lot of adherents of minority religions get along just fine in
the ...

Tom from Illinois, a conservative who is one of my best-informed readers, wrote me yesterday to alert me to the storm I had kicked up with my column on Sarah Palin . Very few of the comments that follow my columns are useful — most are angry, accusatory and partisan, written by wingers on the ...

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, who blithely admits to planning the Sept. 11 attacks that killed nearly 3,000 people in downtown New York, deserves to be put to death. Less clear is Attorney General Eric Holder’s statement last week that New York City was the best venue to pursue the case against them. ...

It is time for Democrats to act like Democrats, talk like Democrats and take their case to the country, as real Democrats used to do. In the last 24 hours, AOL announced it is letting go of a third of its workforce. New mortgage numbers reveal the highest foreclosure rate ever recorded. The ...

From my point of view, President Barack Obama is the most intelligent and savvy of Democratic presidents to come to power in the post-war period. He has a sensory intuition that allows him to catch up quickly on things and he is far better at external things than internal things. China ...

On "Hardball" Thursday night, Chris Matthews asked Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour (R) if Sarah Palin was qualified to be president. Here's the right answer: Three years out from the 2012 presidential elections, Sarah Palin is far, far more qualified to be president than Barack Obama was three ...

OK. A week ago I commented on the nasty blog posts directed
at Newsweek after their layoffs. And I got blasted from conservatives — some of
the language was really not nice, guys!
Well…..after seeing the latest cover of Sarah Palin in her
exercise shorts and a come-hither look, with the ...

The recent decision of the federal government to recommend
that women abstain from annual mammograms illustrates well exactly how ObamaCare
would force a deterioration in the quality of medical care, particularly for
the elderly.
The panel evaluating the effectiveness of mammograms did ...

A Zogby Poll this week illustrates the stark choice facing
Senate Democrats as they have to decide whether or not to vote for ObamaCare. The
poll shows that Arkansas Sen. Blanche Lincoln, high up on the list of
vulnerable Senate Democrats seeking ...

Why avoid investigating the fact that our

It was bad enough that he beat the most viable female presidential candidate in our nation’s history. Now it seems the president is going out of his way to irritate the fairer sex in our nation. Most men like me already distrusted Barack Obama. It is no shock to anyone that white men voted ...

I know, I know, it’s hard to contain your excitement, because Sarah Palin’s book is finally in the bookstores. My advice: Run, run, run — in the opposite direction! On MSNBC, I was asked: What do you think of the big crowd she got in Grand Rapids, Mich.? My response: “Big deal. Americans always ...

In all likelihood, the tragedy at Fort Hood would have been avoided if political correctness hadn’t led military and government officials to turn a blind eye to clear signs that Maj. Hasan had become an Islamist extremist. Even now, after the full extent of this tragedy has sunk in, Army Chief ...

I am not one of the great admirers of Sarah Palin as a political
leader, but fair is fair, and the Newsweek cover of Palin sexist, pure and simple. The photo was taken as an athletic shoot, and to put it on the front page of a major
weekly newsmagazine was totally out of context, biased and ...

You've heard how rank-and-file government workers are

New York City has produced a heated and important debate. Everyone and their
