The Great Mystery Is Why

You Know, You Just Know, That After The President Goes Out There And Announces He Wants To Make Community College Free For All Americans - As Though Anything Government Does Is 'free' - Or Is Unilaterally And Unconstitutionally Legalizing Millions Of Undocumented Immigrants, He Comes Back To The Offices, Pulls Out The Presidential Blackberry, And Gleefully Follows Along As The Right Goes Completely Ape Over These Wild Policy Decisions.

For Obama To Save Himself, He Should Be Thinking About The Example Of An Unlikely Republican Predecessor: Richard Nixon.

Romney Is Right That The Obama Vision Is Too Centered On Government. But His Is Too Centered On The Promotion Of Business And Wealth Creation At The Expense Of Everything Else.

The Sad Truth Is That You Can Have Peace Processes All You Like, But If One Side Is Committed To War, Then It's War.

While Negativity Is Politically Useful, It Is Also Demoralizing Unless It Is Accompanied - And To Some Extent Overshadowed - By Elevated And Inspiring Ideas About The American Future.
