WES VERNON, RA ANALYST — History may
record the second decade of the 21st century as the era in which "the
lying (at long last) had to stop." Any one of several factors may serve
as "the turning point": another outsized 9/11 - - perhaps at three or
four times the body count (and the extent of overall destruction);
multiple "leaders" feel confident enough to drop their masks and reveal
their true intentions; or speech police may add a sharper-edged
enforcement to the public opprobrium of violators of "political
correctness."... (more)

FRED HUTCHISON, RA ANALYST — My last essay
was A Brief History of Conservatism, Part 1, 800 B.C. to 1300 A.D.
During that journey of 2,100 years, we learned how four streams of
Conservatism contributed to Western culture. This essay picks up the
story in the year 1300 A.D. We shall go on a journey through the
proto-Renaissance of literature (1300-1375), the Italian Renaissance
(1375-1520), and the Northern Renaissance (1520-1600). Our story of this
era begins with Dante and ends with Shakespeare... (more)

ROBERT KNIGHT — The federal government is
growing like kudzu. That's the Japanese ivy plant that is taking over
roadsides all over the south and is even invading the north. Kudzu does
some good, holding the ground and so on, but the price is steep: It
kills the other plants, trees and bushes by smothering them. It's kind
of pretty in the summer, like the topiary animals at Disney World, full
of fanciful shapes... (more)

NEWSMAX — Sen. Mike Lee mocked former GOP

NATIONAL REVIEW ONLINE — Embattled
Internal Revenue Service official Lois Lerner and an attorney in the
Federal Election Commission's general counsel's office appear to have
twice colluded to influence the record before the FEC's vote in the case
of a conservative non-profit organization, according to e-mails
unearthed by the House Ways and Means Committee and obtained exclusively
by National Review Online.... (more)

probing the IRS targeting of conservative organizations now want the
federal bureaucracy to explain why some conservative groups that already

MICHELLE MALKIN — It's good to be the
king . . . of class-warfare hypocrisy. While he lectures his political
opponents about their neglect of middle-class America, President Obama
is headed to Martha's Vineyard. Again. Because nothing spells "populist"
like a $7.6 million, 9.5-acre estate owned by one of Chicago's
wealthiest corporate financiers.... (more)

TIMOTHY CARNEY — Ornery first-term
Republican senators and bomb-throwing conservative activist groups are
locking horns again with the Republican establishment.... (more)

STANLEY KURTZ — The consensus response to
President Obama's Knox College speech on the economy is that the
administration has been reduced to pushing a menu of stale and timid
policies that, in any case, won't be enacted. But what if the
administration isn't actually out of ideas? What if Obama's boldest
policy initiative is merely something he'd rather not discuss? And what
if that initiative is being enacted right now?... (more)

NATIONAL JOURNAL — House Republicans head
home for the August break having done little to pass immigration reform,
falling well short of Speaker John Boehner's goal of voting on
legislation before next week's monthlong recess begins. But far from a
failure of leadership, top House Republicans are casting the inaction as
a tactical play designed to boost reform's chances.... (more)

PHYLLIS SCHLAFLY — The Gang of Eight
pro-amnesty senators are trying to con the House of Representatives into
passing parts of an anti-American amnesty bill so they can get a Chuck
Schumer-dominated conference committee and bamboozle representatives
into going along with their sellout plans. The few pro-amnesty
Republican senators had Marco Rubio as the salesman for the unpopular
amnesty bill, and the few pro-amnesty Republicans in the House have Paul
Ryan to play the same un-Republican role.... (more)

ALAN KEYES — Since the Zimmerman trial
verdict, and especially on account of the Obama faction's efforts to
pretend that it had something to do with racism, people have been
remarking on the fact that racial divide in the United States has become
much worse since Obama took over the White House. As is often the case
these days, I find myself marveling at how long it takes people to see
the obvious... (more)

CLIFF KINCAID — Tamara Holder, a Fox News
contributor accused of having an affair with Jesse Jackson, Sr., doesn't
think Anthony Weiner's sex scandal is a big deal. She said, "Public

do know a few good men who don't. Leave Weiner alone."... (more)

campaign.... (more)

WASHINGTON TIMES — The government war
against Republican conservatives gets curiouser and curiouser. It's not
just the IRS, but a state government, too. The link between the IRS
pursuit of Christine O'Donnell and the state of Delaware's snooping
through her federal tax records may be just a coincidence, but color us
suspicious.... (more)
