A Right to Exist If We Don't
| July 5, 2010
This year, we are called upon to decide the most important political issue there is: are there any limits on the power of government? The question is not, what are the limits on government? The question is: are there any limits at all?(->)

Thomas Jefferson's Tea Party Speech
| July 4, 2010
At the Jefferson Area Tea Party's Independence Day celebration in Charlottesville, Virginia, we were favored by a surprise visit from our most famous local celebrity, the Sage of Monticello, Thomas Jefferson. Mr. Jefferson came to read the Declaration of Independence to our audience, but after he was done, our emcee, radio talk show host Joe Thomas, asked the third president if he could favor us with his views on today's Tea Party movement. Here is what Mr. Jefferson said. (->)

Noble Cause Corruption

How reliable are the measurements climate scientists use? What happens if their measuring apparatus is altered by something as simple as a coat of paint that lifts the average recordings? Will anyone spot it? And if someone does, what happens? (->)

Redistribution of Speech
| June 28, 2010
The phrase that should really terrify you is this one: "redistribution of speech opportunities." It sums up, in one phrase, the suicide of liberalism, its degeneration from a supposed defense of liberty to a rationalization for tyranny.(->)

Planning to Fail
| June 23, 2010
The oil spill is the area where the failure of Obama's leadership is most obvious—but it is not the area where it is most important. There are three crises that are much bigger than the Gulf oil spill—and the bad news is that Obama is ignoring them, too.

Australia's Obama Falls

I have an interesting update from Tom Minchin on surprise events in Australia, but first a more urgent warning on a vote in the House today on the DISCLOSE Act, a new attack on the freedom of political speech.(->)

How to Expose a Warmist
| June 17, 2010
TIA Daily readers will appreciate the uncompromising interview style of Australian journalist Andrew Bolt as he eviscerates one of the world's leading warming alarmists, Tim Flannery—a man in the mold of Al Gore. The interview took place on radio in Melbourne, Australia on June 9.(->)

Australia's Obama
| June 16, 2010
The bubble is bursting for him not because he has disappointed real expectations but because he dealt in unreality all along, and his followers are betrayed because the unreal is the unreal and never had any value.(->)

The Stimulus Depression
| June 15, 2010
There are increasing signs of the possibility of a "double dip" recession, such as the report below about corporations accumulating record-high amounts of cash—rather than investing in new equipment or the hiring of new employees. It is a statement of their lack of confidence in the future.

The Depressed Stimulus

The failure of the stimulus bill has had at least one good effect: it has reduced the incentive for Congress to vote for new stimulus spending.(->)

The Law of Intended Consequences
| June 15, 2010
If you think I was exaggerating about how the left's goal is to smash the private economy—paying no heed for how the government is going to actually provide health care or energy or other goods and services after the capitalist economy has been destroyed—well, here's more evidence.(->)

The Truce
| June 15, 2010
I've observed that the Tea Party movement is already a de facto truce between secular pro-free-marketers and the more religious wing of the right, who have joined together and agreed to overlook their differences on the "social issues" in order to fight against a government takeover of the economy.
Well, now someone has openly stated this idea of a truce and set off a fierce debate within the right.(->)

Primary School for the Tea Parties

For better and for worse—mostly for better—Tea Party organizers and supporters are not practiced political operatives, and they have a lot of learning to do. Tuesday was their primary school. Let's take a look at the lessons.(->)
