bill in the legislature, and a public invitation by the [Columbus]

CLIFF KINCAID — If President Obama's
handshake with Cuban dictator Raul Castro is news, Castro's featured
presence at the Nelson Mandela memorial service and what the South
African government said about him are equally newsworthy. South Africa
was described as "joined at the hip" to Cuba and in its debt for
"liberation."... (more)

JOSEPH FARAH — This budget deal stinks to
high heaven. Republicans have an opportunity to increase substantially
their majority in the House and recapture control of the Senate next
year as Americans finally wake up to the nightmare of Obamacare.... (more)

Republicans scrubbing the Ryan-Murray budget deal have come across a
little-noticed provision that will limit the GOP's ability to block tax
increases in future years.... (more)

ERICK ERICKSON — Everyone really should be
able to admit it is the oddest and most nonsensical fight. The Ryan
budget does raise taxes. It does fund Obamacare. It does break
sequestration. And it does nothing to address the debt and deficit. It
is a compromised can kicked down the road just to a further distance
than normal. In doing so, though, it violates a lot of what the very
Republican leaders now kicking the can campaigned against mere weeks
ago.... (more)

TERENCE JEFFREY — The new debt run up by
the federal government since House Speaker John Boehner cut his first

MICHELLE MALKIN — It's elementary: When
Democrats find themselves in political trouble, they reach for your
wallets. After squandering billions on an ineffectual stimulus, failed
green energy boondoggles and the disastrous Unaffordable Care Act, the
Obama White House wants to dump $75 billion more into "free" preschool
for all. That'll solve everything.... (more)

CLIFF KINCAID — Bill Keller of The New
York Times admits Nelson Mandela was a communist, but suggests it
doesn't really matter because communism collapsed. But communism never
died in South Africa. Mandela lied about his party membership, for the
obvious purpose of confusing and deceiving people about what is really
going on in South Africa.... (more)

MAIL ONLINE — The last time a divided U.S.
Congress passed a budget deal, President Ronald Reagan was denying he
traded arms for Iranian hostages and the Space Shuttle Challenger
explosion was fresh in Americans' minds. But a House Republican and a
Democratic senator hope they've found a compromise that federal
legislators can live with.... (more)

WASHINGTON TIMES — Soweto, the
Johannesburg suburb where popular resistance to apartheid set off the
revolution that changed South Africa and established Nelson Mandela as
the father of a new country, is the most dangerous place on the
continent this week. Anyone who ventures into the street risks being
crushed by the hordes of official visitors trying to get in front of a
camera.... (more)

TIMOTHY P. CARNEY — John Podesta is a
revolving-door corporate lobbyist. He's also a former Bill Clinton fixer
and opposition research consultant for the Democrats. So it's fitting
President Obama has officially brought Podesta onto the White House
staff.... (more)

PHYLLIS SCHLAFLY — The media are currently
filled with reports that U.S. students are scoring poorly on
international tests. The Program for International Student Assessment
(PISA), which compares 15-year-olds in most industrialized countries,

21st in reading and 20th to 24th in science.... (more)

ban on blacks entering the priesthood, the Mormon church has offered an
explanation for a practice that was in place for more than 100 years,

NEWSMAX — Unless strict limits are placed
on the Patriot Act's broad surveillance powers, the legislation will
likely be killed altogether when it expires in 2015, the Act's author,

after homeowners in the Fort Trumbull neighborhood of New London, Conn.,

ALAN KEYES — There are many these days who
bloviate passionately against Barack Obama's misdeeds. Meanwhile, they
refuse to back the only strategy that can constitutionally end his
abuses before it's too late. President Warren G. Harding described
bloviating as "the art of speaking for as long as the occasion warrants,
and saying nothing." Reportedly, he himself was one of its primordial
master craftsmen... (more)

CLIFF KINCAID — It appears that AIM and
blogger Trevor Loudon are among the few sources highlighting the

it was denied at the time for "political reasons."... (more)
