		<description><![CDATA[Hey, remember this: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. What a joke that&#8217;s become! In the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Here&#8217;s a great tribute to Apple co-founder Steve Jobs, by Kevin Williamson: Jobs was sometimes criticized for not being a philanthropist along the lines of Bill Gates. Take this article, for example: Last year the founder of the Stanford Social Innovation Review called Apple one of “America’s Least Philanthropic Companies.” Jobs had terminated all of Apple’s long-standing corporate philanthropy programs within [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Paraphrasing President Obama, one job of the U.S. Treasury Department&#8217;s Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is to determine if a business is making &#8216;too much profit.&#8217; Mr. Obama is correct in his assessment that nobody is entitled to &#8220;a certain amount of profit,&#8221; but where he runs frighteningly amok is taking that assessment to mean that government [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Free speech for me, but not for thee? That seems to be the message in New Orleans. The video is courtesy of the Media Research Center. And I do love the part where city councilwoman Susan Guidry orders the police to take down the signs (on private property, no less) citing &#8220;public safety.&#8221; She admits [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is a great commentary from Jonah Goldberg about the fallacy-laden arguments that occur over time when the government gets its nose into something it never should have and then people attempt to disconnect that market intrusion many years later. In his 1973 Libertarian Manifesto, the late Murray Rothbard argued that the biggest obstacle in the road [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Here&#8217;s a great excerpt from Andrew McCarthy: Say a governor and state legislature had enacted a scheme to establish a state religion, or at least to advantage one religion over others. One could argue that this was — or was not — unwise policy. It certainly seems as hostile to liberty as the idea of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One last post on the London riots a couple of weeks ago, in this case an observation from Jonah Goldberg. If you begin a sentence saying that nothing excuses wanton mob violence and theft, but refuse to come to a full-stop with a period or, better yet, an exclamation point, you know that there&#8217;s a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Andrew McCarthy has a great observation in last weekend&#8217;s GOP debate, which found Mitt Romney utilizing Federalism in order to attack Obamacare even as he (still, foolishly) defends Romneycare &#8212; mandates by a state versus the federal government. While McCarthy believes Romney&#8217;s recent discovery of Federalism is simply a convenient ploy to deflect criticisms, he [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There was a great commentary today by Bill McGurn regarding the state of religious freedom in America today, and where that&#8217;s trending (hint, not up). McGurn&#8217;s opinion cited a recent case, Hosanna-Tabor Evangelical Lutheran Church and School v. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, which the Supreme Court agreed to hear shortly. The background of the case [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Here&#8217;s the best retort and thought of the week on what I call the entitlement-hooligan riots in the U.K. Presumably, London-type riots would not last long in either Texas, or Arizona. &#8212; Adam Baldwin on twitter. Indeed. Thank God for the Second Amendment. I say thank God rather than &#8220;Thank Jefferson&#8221; because even Jefferson would [...]]]></description>
