Paul Krugman's latest bit of political hackery is so transparently dishonest that you almost wish the Adviser from Enron had even more space to spread his manure. It's 3 a.m., a few months into 2009, and the phone in the White House rings. Several big hedge funds are about to fail, says the voice on […]
Missouri Gov. Matt Blunt has called out Obama's "Truth Squad" for what it is -- an effort to silence political opponents. Gov.

Democrats are always complaining that Republicans question their patriotism. Of course, they're never able to point to a Republican ever using words to that effect, but Democrats are not so shy themselves about calling Republicans unpatriotic.

To say that FactCheck.org screwed up big time is an understatement. Patterico, Dave Kopel and Bob Owens all shred FactCheck's […]

Back in 1999 or 2000 I was flying back to San Diego from Portland, Ore., aboard an Alaska Airlines jet when the plane was forced down in Los Angeles. Sen. Joe Biden feels my pain. "Ladies and gentlemen, where are we now? Where are we now?" Sen. Joe Biden, D-Del., said to the National Guard […]
Every four years, Democrats go down to Florida, where all the retired seniors are, and wave the bloody flag of evil Republicans wanting to take away Social Security. Yesterday, Sen.
