I gave a talk last night at the Cornell Club of New York City in Manhattan.  The topic was the Tea Party Movement, and the thesis was: Professor Jacobson will argue that the Tea Party movement has been among the most influential and most positive forces...

one op-ed today, I hope it is Mary O'Grady's column in the Wall Street Journal: "Big Labor's Yanqui Imperialism." On the face of it, the National Labor Relations Board's effort to block a new Boeing plant slated for the right-to-work state of South Carolina seems like...

BlueCheddar is a Wisconsin "progressive" website that posted a video confession by an anti-Republican stalker who poured beer over a Republican legislator. The stalker has been charged with disorderly conduct, but the conduct potentially was a felony battery under Wisconsin Statutes 940.20(4): (4) Battery to public officers. Whoever intentionally causes...

I came across an interesting post this morning on the Journal's Numbers Guy blog. I think we all have a tendency to think of al Qaeda as a large force, certainly they've been difficult to track down, but how big is the organization? From the print...

Thanks to reader Danelle who writes: We took this one this afternoon in Wise County, just west of Dallas.  Wise County is one of Texas' hard hit counties from both drought and wildfire, the most recent being last week.  Many ranchers in the area are hard put...

Five days ago Obama unveiled a "jobs plan" which included tax hikes of $467 billion, $400 billion of which were on individuals making $200,000 (and couples making $250,000). Tomorrow Obama will unveil a "deficit reduction plan" which will include $1.5 trillion in new taxes including an extra tax...

Steve Chapman, a member of the Editorial Board of The Chicago Tribune, Why Obama should withdraw (h/t HeyTammyBruce): When Ronald Reagan ran for re-election in 1984, his slogan was "Morning in America." For Barack Obama, it's more like midnight in a coal mine. The sputtering economy is about...

This seems like pretty good advice to the GOP, although the pathetic political ploy needs to be called for what it is (as I did last night): Update:  Time for an invervention, Obama’s on a tax hike bender...

Carl at Israel Matzav has given Mahmoud Abbas, aka Abu Mazen, the nickame "Abu Bluff." The trip by Abbas to the U.N. this week ostensibly to obtain recognition of a Palestinian state is another bluff.  Abbas doesn't even have the support of his own people, as Hamas which controls...

One lie is that there is a historically and ethnically distinct Palestinian people, but that lie is so well established that it is beyond argument now.  Even if Palestinian nationalism was a fiction created in the last few decades as a tool against Israel, that horse has...

Thanks to reader and commenter suhrmesa, who took this photo yesterday, and writes: From Boise, ID… saw this and thought of you and Ithaca.  When in Ithaca, walk the parking lot at Wegman's and enjoy those that are "screaming to be heard" via bumper stickers. Still, my...

How sad.  Our president has been reduced to chasing demons. Obama's recent phony jobs bill which raised $400 billion in taxes on everyone making over $200,000 (couples over $250,000) apparently did not whip the masses into a pitchfork and torch frenzy, because it targeted our doctors, local...

This is the latest in a series on the use of the race card for political gain: Some prominent white liberals, in this case Bill Maher and Michael Moore, are pretty quick to portray conservatives and particularly Tea Partiers as racist. But in fact, it is these white...
