On September 9, much was at stake as President Barack Obama and both Houses of Congress met on Capitol Hill for his speech on healthcare reform. His speech, which was widely considered by both critics and supporters to be a make-or-break moment for Obama and the Democrats’ healthcare crusade, was a 3,000 word sermon to [...]

Health care costs too much and something must be done about it now. Let’s all at least agree on this. This time, opposing health care reform doesn’t make you a patriotic small-government conservative; it just makes you a fool. It is in the interest of all of us to support radical reforms in health care. [...]

The legacy of William F. Buckley, Jr. is perhaps nowhere more pertinent than on the American college campus. But it is perhaps among college-aged Americans where it is most taken for granted. It is difficult for most current Wabash students, being born during the Reagan presidency, to imagine the world before conservatism was [...]

I often like to keep an open mind when reading and watching the news about the hubbub within the political world. I’ll switch back and forth from Fox News to CNN, glance through both the NY Times and the Wall Street Journal, as well as listen to Neal Boortz or Rush Limbaugh when I’m able. [...]

The police just don’t understand what it’s like to be “a black man in America.” If only they knew how difficult it was, especially for a black man like Gates — a tenured professor at one of America’s most prestigious universities. What a difficult life he must have, especially during the summer time, when there is oh so much work for a professor to do, and it may become more difficult to find a personal driver to get him where he needs to go. If only the police understood these things, then they would be more sensitive, and this whole situation would have been avoided.

But as Republicans now know, electing Obama was not the end of the world. Or America. (At least not yet anyways.) Sure, the economy may have tanked, Gitmo is closing, and Rahm Emanuel took control of the media, but at least we still have Keith Olbermann foaming at the mouth each night with Bush Derangement Syndrome, right? (Not even humor can change our current situation!)

Enter the state of the party: We lost the mandate. Once fancying itself as the exuberant voice of the ‘real’ America, the Republican Party has become the very enemy it sought to fight against: big government with high spending.
