The News… Newsmax: WASHINGTON — A grim-faced President Barack Obama

Politico...
The art of the policy rider vendetta
By Darren Goode
Congress doesn’t want Ken Salazar to have a personal chef or Eric

Contemplating the “Cloud”
By Jim Surber
My last writing described nine common items that could easily be
eliminated over the coming years, mostly as a result of our expanding
use of computers and technology. One of these was our “things” such as
documents and pictures, currently stored on our personal computers,

The Beltway Industry Full-Time Employment Act
By Michelle Malkin
Dodd-Frank, the 2,300-page financial “reform” monstrosity spearheaded
by Capitol Hill corruptocrats, turned 1 this week. It made too-big
banks bigger. It made too-risky incentives riskier. It made a lousy
economy lousier. Billed as a “consumer protection” act, Dodd-Frank has
