How Paul Ryan as GOP VP Nominee Does—And Does Not—Change The Debate
Paul Hsieh August 11, 2012
Presumptive GOP nominee Mitt Romney has just selected Wisconsin Congressman Paul Ryan as his vice-presidential nominee. Although we'll undoubtedly hear much more about Ryan in the next few days, I'd like to offer some early thoughts on how Ryan's selection will and will not change the 2012 political debate. On…

Why I’m a Free-Market Liberal
Ari Armstrong August 11, 2012
Years ago I spoke with a woman from Argentina who described herself as a “liberal,” by which she meant an advocate of free markets and economic liberty. She impressed upon me the difference between the classical liberal tradition and the modern American corruption of “liberalism,” which is taken to mean…

Two Questions for Advocates of Obama’s Flukenomics
Ari Armstrong August 10, 2012
“Because a product is useful and properly legal, the government should fund it or force others to fund it.” That is the essence of the doctrine I’ll dub Flukenomics, named after Sandra Fluke, famous for endorsing ObamCare’s requirement that health insurance companies fund birth control for their clients. President Obama…

The Posture of Self-Esteem
Ari Armstrong August 9, 2012
Observe the posture of the figures painted by Bryan Larson. His figures have relatively straight backs and necks, with shoulders rolled back rather than forward. They project self-confidence and an eagerness to achieve and live. That sort of posture was common in early America (and remains common in parts of…
History
How Alan Turing Outsmarted Britain's Home Guard—and For Their Own Good
Daniel Wahl August 8, 2012
There’s a lot to like about The Secret Lives of Codebreakers: The Men and Women Who Cracked the Enigma Code at Bletchley Park. For one example, see “Ian Fleming’s Beautiful Plan to Defeat the Nazis.” For another, consider a story from the book that involves Alan Turing and how he…

Curiosity Drives Exploration of Mars
Ari Armstrong August 7, 2012
Although a number of recent headlines have been depressing (if not horrifying), we can rejoice in the wonderful news that NASA successfully landed the new Mars rover “Curiosity” on the planet late Sunday night. Scientists will now use the rover to explore Mars and search for possible signs of past…

Help Joshua Lipana Fight Cancer—Update
Craig Biddle August 6, 2012
A hearty “thank you!” to everyone who has contributed to help Joshua Lipana cover the costs of his cancer treatment. To date we’ve raised $13,642 (that’s $2,000 more than GoFundMe shows because one couple generously made a direct donation of $2,000 to Joshua’s PayPal account). But we still have a…

An Olympian Congratulations to Kirani James, Oscar Pistorius—and Össur Kristinsson
Ari Armstrong August 6, 2012
Olympic contender Oscar Pistorius ran the 400 meter race Sunday in 46.54 seconds. That’s a speed of over 19 miles per hour. Stunningly, Kirani James beat Pistorius by 1.95 seconds. Anyone who has seen Pistorius race knows why James paid him tribute by asking for his name bib: Pistorius runs…

Understanding Obama: It’s Not the Economy, Stupid!
Michael A. LaFerrara August 5, 2012
Noting our deteriorating economy, a seemingly exasperated Charles Gasparino recently wrote in the New York Post: President Obama can’t stop talking about the 1 percent of people who he says don’t pay their fair share of the nation’s taxes. But he should be obsessing about a 1.5 percent — the…

Iran Calls Yet Again for Annihilation of Israel
Ari Armstrong August 3, 2012
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has called yet again for the “annihilation of the Zionist regime”—that is, the nation of Israel. What threat is posed by the regime over which this madman presides? As Craig Biddle notes: [T]he Islamist regime in Iran is sponsoring the slaughter of American soldiers in Iraq…

Obama’s Way vs. The American Way
Michael A. LaFerrara August 2, 2012
In an under-analyzed section of his infamous "you didn't build that" speech, President Obama effused: [W]hen we succeed, we succeed because of our individual initiative, but also because we do things together. There are some things, just like fighting fires, we don’t do on our own. I mean, imagine if…

Keeping Crime Risks in Perspective
Ari Armstrong August 1, 2012
Understandably, the horrific murders at a movie theater in Aurora, Colorado, have put many people around the country on edge. Obviously, we want to do what we reasonably can to protect ourselves and our families from criminal attacks. And we want our government to take seriously its responsibility to protect…

End U.S. Extortion Payments to Egypt
Ari Armstrong July 31, 2012
Let’s review some recent news about the situation in Egypt. The country is engaged in a power struggle between its military and the Islamist, America- and Israel-loathing Muslim Brotherhood, which seeks a worldwide caliphate. As but one illustration of the reigning insanity, in the wake of the Brotherhood’s political successes,…

Obama’s Hideous Moral Equivalence Toward Israel
Michael A. LaFerrara July 30, 2012
Is there a moral difference between a terrorist attack on a tourist bus and a nation acting in self defense? Not according to the Obama administration. As the New York Post writes regarding an Iranian-backed Hezbollah attack on Israeli citizens in Bulgaria: Team Obama rightly blamed Iran after its proxy…

Celebrate the Cinema
Ari Armstrong July 29, 2012
In light of depressed movie attendance due partly to the recent murders at an Aurora movie theater, we should remember the profound joy and inspiration good movies can offer. TOS has reviewed a number of films: The Avengers, Act of Valor, The Help, Atlas Shrugged: Part I, and The King's…
