LETTER TO THE EDITOR: How to destroy America

With most of the American people only looking outside the country for enemies, we are very vulnerable from within. How could someone take advantage of this vulnerability? Published May 5, 2014

The D.C. Council is suing Mayor Vincent C. Gray for his refusal to implement a voter-approved law, which would give the District the right to set its 2015 budget without congressional interference. Council seeks to set its own fiscal calendar. (Khalid Naji-Allah /Special to The Washington Times)

EDITORIAL: D.C.’s inartful budgeting on dubious art projects

With subpar schools and ramshackle roads, it's hard to believe that the District collects 43 percent more in taxes from residents than the national average. The answer to where all that money is going can be found in the latest city budget. Published May 2, 2014

EDITORIAL: So what if China grows?

LETTER TO THE EDITOR: GOP must solve immigration problem

There might not be much to like about the state of U.S. immigration policy, but it is something that needs to be addressed sensibly. If it isn't, the radical among us (including former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush) will attempt to do it for us. Published May 2, 2014

LETTER TO THE EDITOR: No sleep lost over killer Lockett

I will not lose any sleep over the botched execution of Clayton D. Lockett in Oklahoma. In fact, in this way perhaps Lockett was able to better empathize with his victims prior to being judged by God. Published May 2, 2014

Arkansas Gov. Mike Beebe speaks at a meeting of the Arkansas Sheriffs' Association in North Little Rock, Ark., Tuesday, Jan.28, 2014.

EDITORIAL: The Arkansas Obamacare bailout

Fans of Kathleen Sebelius, the lady who made Obamacare so wildly popular, say her greatest accomplishment was persuading red states to accept the Medicaid expansion. Alas, these states have been lured with false promises of flexibility and free money. Published April 30, 2014

Businessman Tom Steyer listens during a meeting to announce the launch of a group called Virginians for Clean Government at Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond, Va., Wednesday, Sept. 25, 2013. While Democrats hammer away at the influence of the Koch brothers, conservatives are swinging back by pointing to the liberal campaign activism and free-spending ways of the wealthy Steyer brothers, Jim and Tom.

EDITORIAL: The Democratic Billionaires Club’s double-standard

Principles in politics often fade even before all the election returns are in. Once elected, candidates can feel liberated from inconvenient campaign promises. President Obama, more than anyone, has "grown" so big in office he isn't bound by anything he said before the day before yesterday. Published April 30, 2014

LETTER TO THE EDITOR: Holocaust statement too little, too late

The recent acknowledgment of the Holocaust by Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas comes too little and too late, considering his previous statements about the Holocaust and the strings attached to his current mention of it. Published April 30, 2014
