Hail Armageddon

Posted on March 2nd, 2013

By Charles Krauthammer “The worst-case scenario for us,” a leading anti-budget-cuts lobbyist told The Post, “is the sequester hits and nothing bad really happens.” Think about that. Worst case? That a government drowning in debt should cut back by 2.2 percent — and the country survives. That a government now borrowing 35 cents of every dollar it [...]

Return of the Real Obama

Posted on January 4th, 2013

The president is dedicated to the expansion of the welfare state. By Charles Krauthammer       NATIONAL REVIEW ONLINE   The rout was complete, the retreat disorderly. President Obama got his tax hikes — naked of spending cuts — passed by the ostensibly Republican House of Representatives. After which, you might expect him to pivot to his [...]

Charles Krauthammer: Cliff-jumping with Barack

Posted on December 2nd, 2012

By Charles Krauthammer   Why are Republicans playing the Democrats’ game that the “fiscal cliff” is all about taxation?   House Speaker John Boehner already made the preemptive concession of agreeing to raise revenue. But the insistence on doing so by eliminating deductions without raising marginal rates is now the subject of fierce Republican infighting. [...]

The Choice

Posted on November 2nd, 2012

  At stake is the very nature of the American social contract   “Ronald Reagan changed the trajectory of America in a way that Richard Nixon did not and in a way that Bill Clinton did not.” That was Barack Obama in 2008. And he was right. Reagan was an ideological inflection point, ending a [...]

The Case Against Reelection

Posted on August 10th, 2012

It’s time to hold Obama accountable for his “you didn’t build that” ideology. By Charles Krauthammer There are two ways to run against Barack Obama: stewardship or ideology. You can run against his record, or you can run against his ideas. The stewardship case is pretty straightforward: the worst recovery in U.S. history, 42 consecutive [...]

Mitt’s Attack on Crony Capitalism

Posted on January 23rd, 2012

Tough stuff. The right stuff. By Larry Kudlow Let me build on Charles Krauthammer’s great Friday column, “The GOP’s Suicide March.” Krauthammer argues that just as President Obama’s class-warfare, soak-the-rich mantra started lagging in the polls, some Republicans on the campaign trail started making the case that Mitt Romney’s Bain Capital was involved in nothing [...]

The Obama Doctrine: Leading from Behind

Posted on May 1st, 2011

A foreign policy of hesitation, delay, and indecision.  Obama may be moving toward something resembling a doctrine. One of his advisers described the president’s actions in Libya as “leading from behind.”  — Ryan Lizza, The New Yorker, May 2 issue To be precise, leading from behind is a style, not a doctrine. Doctrines involve ideas, [...]

Jerry Brown or friend calls calling says Meg Whitman is a Whore audio video

Posted on October 8th, 2010

I heard the venerable Charles Krauthammer say on FOXNEWS a few days ago, very much tongue-in-cheek, that the last 30 days before an election is “The Most Wonderful Time of the Year.” You can bet your last dollar that the mud-slingers will be slinging it with glee and abandon as we approach what Sean Hannity [...]

The Last Refuge of the Liberal

Posted on August 29th, 2010

National Review Online By:  Charles Krauthammer Labeling all opponents “bigots” allows the Left to forgo real debates. Liberalism under siege is an ugly sight indeed. Just yesterday it was all hope and change and returning power to the people. But the people have proved so disappointing. Their recalcitrance has, in only 19 months, turned the [...]

America and Brittania: The Special Relationship Endures

Posted on April 3rd, 2010

Charles Krauthammer has his usual excellent article in the NRO in which he talks about Obama’s slight of one of our most reliable allies in the world, Great Britain. This “island race of people” as Winston Churchill used to refer to them, has been our ally in both World Wars and through other regional brush [...]
