Taxes: President Obama should have done a little more due diligence before making Warren Buffett's secretary the poster child for raising taxes on the rich. Her story gets fishier by the minute. Ever since Buffett claimed his secretary paid taxes at a hi

Politics: After claiming "there's something I know" that could destroy Newt Gingrich, top Democrat Nancy Pelosi instantly admitted she has no private dirt on him. It's Pelosi and her party who are the sleaze specialists. Earlier this week during a CNN in

Regulation: Tuesday's GOP debate moderator was shocked by the front-runners' broadside against Dodd-Frank banking rules. He seemed to think they were hyping their damage. They weren't. The media elite are under the assumption that all government regulati
