The IRS Scandal

So it appears the IRS has been discriminatory to some conservative groups when they applied for tax exempt status. Conservative groups… Like the tea party… To be clear, the exact charge was that tea party and conser...

Immigration Reform

At last, the U.S. Congress has passed an immigration bill. And I think that’s great. But, as I thought on the issue, I realized that the impetus to make most of this happen was in reaction to the battle over the Mexican borde...
