News You Can Use

Dick Morris says that Gore can beat Clinton

In a monumental nod to political correctness, the Empire State Building is to be lit up green in honor of the Muslim holiday Eid. The separation of Islam from terror is officially complete...

Now Suriname wants a U.S. military base, just like its neighbors, Colombia and Peru. Over in Brazil, the military is reasserting itself. With Venezuela on the prowl, these are signs of an anxious region...

The Supreme Court hears a case that may determine whether the U.S. criminal justice system is subservient to an international court. As U.S. Border Patrol agents sit in prison, will a foreign-born rapist-murderer go free?

Iraq for most Americans is now a toxic subject — best either ignored or largely evoked to blame someone for something in the past.

Of course, it's right to recognize the wrong that the former Ottoman Empire did to the millions of Armenians it slaughtered and deported from 1915 and 1922. That said, does Congress have to recognize it now?

A federal judge has decreed the U.S. cannot enforce its own laws to prevent the illegal employment of illegal aliens. With border control already inadequate, judicial tyranny makes a bad situation worse.

A manufactured flap over Rush Limbaugh has stirred talk of new "fairness doctrine" hearings in Congress. That's just what Media Matters, the flacks behind it, were after. Their agenda is worse than it looks.

Wasn't it just a month ago that Democrats in Congress were promising to hold vote after vote after vote on withdrawing U.S. troops from Iraq to embarrass the Republicans? Well, forget about it.

When the leader of the Democratic-controlled Senate stops a major tax increase from a senior Republican senator, it turns heads — especially with the health of the economy at stake

In 21 days, the law that has kept the taxman's hands off the Web is going to expire. Is a Democratic Congress up to the task of keeping the Internet free? The answer appears to be yes

To encourage retirement savings, Hillary Clinton drops her baby bond idea in favor of an income-redistribution scheme to encourage retirement savings. So what was wrong with Personal Savings Accounts?

U.S. spy agencies are supposed to gather information so that they might save lives. Whoever in the intelligence community leaked a preview of an al-Qaida video to the media has endangered lives.

Hillary Clinton says she would renegotiate all U.S. free trade pacts and punitively monitor America's supposedly miscreant trade partners. As she trawls for populist votes, she's damaging our credibility abroad.

The insurgency lives, but it's directed toward al-Qaida, not U.S. and allied forces. A British newspaper, not our legacy media, is reporting that a "transformation has swept" across the Western part of the country.

Speaker Pelosi says that for the cost of 41 days in Iraq, 10 million children can receive health insurance for a year. The Constitution says a lot about national defense. It says nothing about insurance.

Inviting Americans to convert, Osama bin Laden says Islam requires no tax, just a 2.5% tithe to Allah. What he doesn't say is much of those funds benefit terrorists like him

The Law of the Sea Treaty, or LOST, is the most important treaty you've never heard of. It would turn over all of the world's unclaimed natural...
