  • Hysteria over Paris pullout

    Tuesday, June 13, 2017 11:09 AM
    FOR SHEER HILARITY and hyperbole, it’s hard to beat a recent headline on a Washington Post editorial opposing President Donald Trump’s decision to remove the United States from the nonbinding and unenforceable Paris climate agreement.
    “Trump turns his back on the world,” it “screamed.”
    A close second goes to the headline on a New York Times piece by columnist David Brooks: “Donald Trump poisons the world.”
    Dishonorable mention goes to

  • Saudi Arabia’s duplicity

    Tuesday, May 30, 2017 11:33 AM
    TRUSTING SAUDI ARABIA to combat terrorists and extremists, and drive them out, as President Donald Trump called on the kingdom and other Arab and Muslim nations to do in his Riyadh speech, is akin to forging an alliance with the Ku Klux Klan to combat racism and anti-Semitism. Saudi Arabia has for years promoted the very evil they now commit to fighting through a newly established Global Center for Combating Extremist Ideology. Never forget that 15 of the

  • Awards have lost their meaning

    Tuesday, May 16, 2017 10:37 AM
    AWARDS ONCE MEANT something. There was a time not that long ago when they were given in recognition of important accomplishments. Today, we tend to value celebrity over steady achievement. Fame is paramount. It matters little how one attains it. The Kardashians are just one of many examples.
    We now give participation awards to

  • Talking right with Trump

    Tuesday, May 2, 2017 10:53 AM
    PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP did something Monday I have long advocated. He met with a small group of conservative journalists, pundits and radio talk show hosts. I was among them.
    After ticking off a list of what he said were his accomplishments leading up to the arbitrary 100-day marker of his presidency, we asked him

  • Death row and Arkansas

    Tuesday, April 18, 2017 10:44 AM
    NEARLY THREE DOZEN men sit on death row in Arkansas, where capital punishment has been suspended since 2005. Unless clemency is granted, seven of them, an eighth man was granted a temporary reprieve, will be given lethal injections all within a 10-day period, between April 17 and 27.
    Why so many? Why the rush?
    The New York Times reports that

  • Trump can learn valuable lesson

    Tuesday, April 4, 2017 10:11 AM
    IN THE AFTERMATH of the debacle over the Republican effort to repeal and replace Obamacare, President Donald Trump can learn a valuable lesson that will serve him well in the next battle over tax reform and other issues.

  • An opportunity for Trump

    Tuesday, March 21, 2017 11:20 AM
    “No government ever voluntarily reduces itself in size. Government programs, once launched, never disappear. Actually, a government bureau is the nearest thing to eternal life we’ll ever see on this earth!” —Ronald Reagan

    PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP presented his first budget to

  • Trump needs link with press

    Tuesday, March 7, 2017 10:52 AM
    BEFORE BECOMING A newspaper columnist, I was a broadcast-news reporter for local TV stations and occasionally appeared on NBC radio and the television networks. I have some experience at being on the receiving end of hostilities directed at the media.
    At a pro-Nixon, pro-Vietnam war rally I

  • A new direction on education

    Tuesday, February 21, 2017 10:59 AM
    AMERICAN PUBLIC SCHOOL students fall well behind students around the world in math and science proficiency. This is not debatable. According to the Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study and Progress in International Reading Literacy Study, both cited in The New York Times in 2012, “Fourth- and eighth-grade students in the United States continue to lag behind students in

  • The narrative

    Tuesday, February 7, 2017 12:00 PM
    JUST DAYS INTO the Donald Trump administration, the left’s narrative is clear. First, it was that Trump is an illegitimate president because he didn’t win the popular vote, claims about voter fraud notwithstanding.
    Then, the left tried name-calling: unfit, immoral, crude, high-handed, fascist. His supporters stuck with him when similar tactics were tried during the campaign.
    Now, the narrative has gone racist, that all-purpose

  • Rhetoric, reality and the future

    Wednesday, January 25, 2017 10:38 AM
    PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP’S inaugural address may not have risen to the rhetorical level of John F. Kennedy (“The torch has been passed to a new generation of Americans” and “Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country.”) or Ronald Reagan’s critique of government (“Government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem.”) or even Barack Obama’s in 2009 (“On this day, we gather because we have chosen hope over fear, unity of purpose over conflict and discord.”), but the speech set out large goals, many details of which are yet to be revealed.
