1. Being a businessman does not suddenly make you qualified to be President
We should dispose of the popular assumption that owning or running a company means you are prepared to occupy the most powerful position in the world. Sure there have been some good CEOs turned politicians, but there are many businesses in this country, both small and large, and...

Run, Jon Huntsman, Run
Jon Huntsman Interview from CNN
Jon Huntsman’s time as governor of Utah seems to have been an unequivocal success. The non-partisan study Pew Center on the States ranked Utah the “best managed,” and Forbes has called Utah the best state in the country to do business in. He retained unprecedented levels of popularity, at one point satisfying 90% of Utah’s residents. ...

Obama’s Mideast Speech - Complete Text
…a failure to change our approach threatens a deepening spiral of division between the United States and the Arab world.
The status quo is not sustainable. Societies held together by fear and repression may offer the illusion of stability for a time, but they are built upon fault lines that will eventually tear asunder.

Why the Hell is Alaska a State?
It’s way up there somewhere around Canada and Russia. It’s rarely mentioned in the news and when it is, it’s usually for less than respectable reasons (i.e., the Palin family). It’s cold. It’s big. It produces some oil. Honestly, what does Alaska really do for us?
Imagine, if you will, that every state was personified around a large table in a meeting room. There’s...

Obama's Condescending Decision Not to Release the...
When deciding not to release the bin Laden death photos, Obama argued that the photos could incite violence and be used for propaganda purposes. This argument is almost laughable. We risk inciting violence from Islamic extremists nearly every day. We risked it when we killed bin Laden. We risked it when we invaded Afghanistan and Iraq. We risk it every time we affirm our support for Israel. One...

Pakistan: Traitors or Incompetents?
Osama bin Laden was living, perhaps for years, in a large luxury compound just 800 yards from a Pakistani military academy. CIA Director Leon Panetta said that the U.S. would not tell Pakistan about the attempt to capture or kill bin Laden out of fear the mission would be jeopardized.

Donald Trump's Latest Batch of Lies
Reality TV star, pro wrestling personality, and all-around douchebag Donald Trump gave a profanity-laden speech on Friday in Las Vegas, the capital city of crass materialism. Yet again, he discussed OPEC and China, probably because these are the only two political issues on which he has formed an actual opinion. He also again brought up the birth certificate issue, without any provocation...
