The health care “debate” is made most irritating by the obvious things ignored. As we have grown accustomed to hearing ad nauseam, health care represents 17% of our economy. I have no idea if that number is accurate. Perhaps one day I will look into it. Whatever the number, we know it is big. Yet [...]
Last year, White House economists claimed that the $862 billion stimulus would create 3.3 million jobs. Since then, the nation has lost more than 3 million jobs. That’s a 6.3 million jobs gap. By the White House’s own standards, the stimulus failed. So President Obama has shifted his argument. Sure, the economy lost jobs, he [...]

It is one thing to vote for a flawed candidate opposing one who is worse. It is another thing altogether to place immense credibility [...]
Isaac Deutscher was my friend and mentor and so I write the following with heartfelt regret. He was a brilliant, innovative thinker and literary stylist, but his life’s work, including his masterpiece on Trotsky, is finally a monument to the intellectual bankruptcy of Marxism itself. When all is said and done, the Trotsky biography must [...]
