Wall Street Welfare

Dear Chris Dodd: It’s the Gov’t, Stupid
Published by Human Events

In one last feeble attempt to save his corruption-tattered legacy, Sen. Chris Dodd is trying to sell his fix for Wall Street. It’s too bad that this ‘fix’ is more like providing a permanent stockpile of cocaine to an addict than a solution to the real systematic problem contaminating our economy.

What makes this situation truly ironic is that the Bailout King himself is claiming that this new financial reform bill will get rid of bailouts altogether. Does he think the American people are oblivious or just dumb?

Dodd’s bill not only fails to get rid of bailouts, it makes them a permanent entitlement.

Greetings listeners! We are now broadcasting from the United States of Goldman Sachs!

Tea Party Youth

If you read The New York Times opinion section, you probably believe the Tea Party movement is made up of a bunch of racist old white men. On the contrary, we are a diverse group—people of all walks of life that are upset about the path Washington is taking us.

I’m 20 years old, and if anyone has the right to be angry about the Obama agenda, it’s young people. This administration has made a commitment to bankrupting my generation. Obama is turning us from Generation ‘Y’ to Generation ‘Why Us?’

Human Events Feature: Obama’s Nuclear Foreign Fallacy

By Ron Meyer Human Events

Featured by Human Events

Everyone used to have good laughs when George W. Bush frequently mispronounced “nuclear” as “nuke-u-lar,” but at least he understood the basic foreign relations concept of deterrence. Barack Obama doesn’t, and it’s not funny.

Obama’s new nuclear policy imposes self-limitations on how we can respond to attacks. Essentially, if a country that has followed the nonproliferation treaty attacks the United States or our allies with non-nuclear weapons, we cannot respond by attacking them with nuclear weapons.

Sounds reasonable, right? Not quite. While the U.S should always avoid using nuclear weapons at all costs, taking this response off the table weakens our ability to deter future attacks.

No longer will America “walk softly and carry a big stick.” For the last 60 years, countries have been scared to attack the U.S. and our allies because they knew we could respond with utter annihilation. Obama has shelved our biggest stick.
