An Islamic scholar who had been hired by Notre Dame to teach religion (yeah, I know it doesn't make much sense -- Catholic University and all) has had his visa revoked. "Generally speaking, criteria for revocation include public safety risk, or national security threat," DHS spokesman Dean Boyd said. However, what really caught my eye […]
Don Luskin slams New York Times columnist Paul Krugman for his tireless work in making one of his own predictions come true. Krugman's Tuesday column was one big whine about this election being the nastiest on record. Left out is that Krugman has done his best over the past four years to drag political speech […]

A Wall Street Journal editorial today gives the USA mens basketball a well-deserved spanking over their poor play. The shooting and passing skills that once made the game a pleasure to watch have given way to inside wrestling and one-on-one showboating. A modern NBA game often resembles water polo without the artistry. These weaknesses get […]
After reading William Rood's account of the Feb. 28, 1969, on the Dong Cung River in Vietnam, I'm satisfied that John Kerry's Silver Star citation is deserved.
