Commentary On “Strassel: Who’ll Be the GOP’s Next Big Thing?”
Rather than look for a candidate that pleases all Republicans, try finding a candidate who can honestly challenge all Republicans and also Americans to be their best selves.
Quit doing demographics and look inside. The former is blindness, the latter sight.
I will not look for the 'right platform' or the 'right morals' or the Read More
Some Thoughts On “Intel, Microsoft Woo Tablet Makers”
Google's core competency is SEARCH. So far, that has not changed. This is something Google has in common with Microsoft. Google's success is in international job search and, to a lesser extent, advertising. Microsoft's flagship software competencies, the Windows OS and the Office suite, are still its bread and butter.

My View On “Geithner: Jobs Plan Can Work ‘Very Quickly’”
There he was, standing next to Hillary Clinton last night while Obama addressed the Congress clapping in support of every utterance from the president all the while knowing that within minutes of the meeting he would be need to take off for a trans Atlantic flight to France for an inconsequential meeting. Yes Mr. Geitner, your Read More
My Analysis On “Jenkins: How Green Became Obama’s Albatross”
absolutely incredible. The eco-Democrats being advised by the Obama Administration to use surrogate spokespeople to come into a foreign country and fund Native Indian Bands to block the Northern Gateway Pipeline. Just unbelievable! This is a Canadian issue, totally within the borders of Canada. And American anti pipeline oil Read More
Thoughts On “Helping Kids Beat Depression… by Treating Mom”

Some Thoughts On “Managers Admit to Playing Favorites”
I believe the more telling aspect of this story is not so much that favoritism in the workplace plays a big role in much of corporate America today, approximately 84% admit it occurs within their own organizations. I think the really interesting point is that almost a quarter admit to practicing it themselves, but only 9% believe Read More
My View On “Rove: The ObamaCare Bad News Continues”
I complained two years ago that the company I work for would discontinue our insurance if Obamacare came. I cited the text from our union contract.

Commentary On “WRITING ON THE WALL: Warren Buffett’s Lament? That’s Rich”
One might reasonably speculate that his effective tax rate is low beause his salary is famously low and he takes his compensation in the form of investment income and capital gains tax rate 2012 gains which are taxed at a lower rate.

An Opinion On “To Ban the Burqa—Or Not”
I think Bret makes the better arguments, but fundamentally what are those women doing in France with its established values and culture so anathema to them?
