Why
Reagan Would Have Opposed Iran Deal, Michaela
Dodge
August 25, 2015 - Proponents of President Obama’s Iran deal have
invoked analogies to President Reagan’s arms control approach in effort
to increase desirability for the unpopular agreement in the eyes of
Congress and the general public. The analogy is misguided and flawed
(just like the Iran deal itself). For starters, Obama is no...

It’s Not Iran Deal Critics Who Are the ‘Crazy’ Ones,
by
Nile Gardiner
August 25, 2015 -- Just back from his annual summer vacation at
Martha’s Vineyard, President Barack Obama has returned to disparaging
his political adversaries and anyone who happens to disagree with him
on policy. According to a report in Politico, the president has taken
to describing opponents of the hugely controversial Iran deal as
“crazies.” The so-called “crazies” now include a majority of members of
the House and Senate...

Should Sexual
Assault Be Managed on Campus? Two Bills’ Different Approaches,
by Andrew Kloster -- August 24, 2015 -- There is no doubt that American
colleges should be safe for all students. A recent University of
Virginia case is any example, however, of the difficulty college
communities often face dealing with those accused of crimes, as well as
those who are victims. In the recent Virginia case, allegations of
sexual assault were repeated in a national magazine and led to
widespread outrage...

Marriage and Be a Good Judge? The Chilling Opinion of Ohio Court’s Board,
by Roger Severino -- August 14, 2015 -- Are people who publicly affirm
that marriage is the union of one man and one woman unfit to be judges?
The Ohio Supreme Court’s Board of Professional Conduct came close to
saying just that in a recent advisory opinion in the wake of the
Supreme Court’s national redefinition of marriage. According to the
Board, a judge who performs civil marriage ceremonies cannot decline to
perform...

Andrew Kloster - August 12, 2015 - This past week, the United States
Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, over the
vigorous dissent of four judges on that court, denied rehearing en banc
(legalese for an entire court rather than just a panel of three judges)
in the case of Sissel v. United States Department of Health and Human
Services...

who used to work for a branch of Planned Parenthood, didn’t just
witness the fetal tissue donation process—she participated in it.

Progress—Johnson said she would “coerce” women...

‘Black Lives Matter’ Movement, by Rachel
Alexander
Aug 10, 2015 -- The Black Lives Matter movement is a bizarre new
phenomenon that doesn’t make a whole lot of sense. Instead of
addressing real issues of racism, the activists focus on a few
incidents where a black person has gotten into a deadly confrontation
with law enforcement — but where there doesn’t appear to have been any
racism. In many of the incidents, the officers themselves were black or
Hispanic...

August 06, 2015 - LISBON, Ohio—Prize-winning cattle are more popular

case on this overcast Thursday afternoon, hours before 17 Republicans
were preparing for two debates 90 minutes north in Cleveland. En route
to cover the event, I stopped in this quaint Ohio town...

The
Daily Signal… Bad
Iran Deal Breeds Warranted Skepticism,
by Michaela Dodge
August 04, 2015 -- On Wednesday, President Obama will make a personal
push to sell the flawed Iran deal to the American public and Congress.
The president’s efforts to sell his bad deal are unsurprising,
considering that the more Americans have learned about the deal, the
less they like it. They have plenty of reasons for skepticism. The deal
with Iran is deeply flawed and rewards years of Iranian cheating and
lying about the nature...

By Jeff Neal
July 30, 2015 -- The Office of Personnel Management is getting the kind
of attention that most federal agencies never want. The data breach has
people questioning the competence of OPM’s staff and leaders, and
asking why OPM exists in the first place. So many people have been
affected, and in such a personal and lasting way, that
business-as-usual is simply not a viable option. So what does something
other than business-as-usual...
