  1. Obama's love of big government

    WASHINGTON — The media herd is stunned to discover that Barack Obama is a man of the left. After 699 teleprompted presidential speeches, the commentariat was apparently still oblivious. Until last week's inaugural address, that is.

  3. Immigration: Fence, then amnesty

    WASHINGTON &#8212; <a href="http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/nationworld/chi-immigration-storygallery,0,407645.storygallery">Immigration</a> reform is coming. Let's get it right. What counts as getting it wrong? The 1986 Simpson-Mazzoli Act, signed by President Ronald Reagan. It granted amnesty to the then 3 million illegal immigrants and promised border enforcement.

  5. Romney can give allies love they've lacked from Obama

    A generation ago, it was the three I's. A presidential challenger's obligatory foreign trip meant Ireland, Italy and Israel. Mitt Romney's itinerary is slightly different: Britain, Poland and Israel. Not quite the naked ethnic appeal of yore. Each...

  7. How Obama lost the war

    WASHINGTON &#8212; Barack Obama was a principled opponent of the Iraq War from its beginning. But when he became president in January 2009, he was handed a war that was won. The surge had succeeded. Al-Qaida in Iraq had been routed, driven to humiliating defeat by an Anbar Awakening of Sunnis fighting side-by-side with the infidel Americans. Even more remarkably, the Shiite militias had been taken down, with American backing, by the forces of Shiite Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki. They crushed the Sadr militias from Basra to Sadr City.

  11. Return of the real, soak-the-rich, class warrior Obama

    In a 2008 debate, former ABC News broadcaster Charlie Gibson asked Barack Obama about his support for raising capital gains taxes, given the historical record of government losing net revenue as a result. Obama persevered: "Well, Charlie, what I've said is that I would look at raising the capital gains tax for purposes of fairness."

  13. Face it: Obama is plum out of ideas

    Once upon a time, small ball was not Barack Obama's game. Tuesday, it was the essence of his State of the Union address. The visionary of 2008 &mdash; purveyor of hope and change, healer of the Earth, tamer of the rising seas &mdash; offered an hour of little things: tax-code tweaks to encourage this or that kind of behavior (manufacturing being the flavor of the day), little watchdog agencies to round up Wall Street miscreants and Chinese DVD pirates, even a presidential demand "that all students stay in high school until they graduate or turn 18." Under penalty of what? Jail? The self-proclaimed transformer of America is now playing truant officer?

  15. Obama embraces democratic realism abroad

    It was gratifying to hear a despotic leader blame the United States for the rise of a democratic protest movement against his regime. Vladimir Putin, the Russian prime minister, wants his people to think that those who have taken to the streets to...

  17. Obama's campaign for class resentment

    WASHINGTON — In the first month of his presidency, Barack Obama averred that if in three years he hadn't alleviated the nation's economic pain, he'd be a "one-term proposition." When three-quarters of Americans think the country is on the "wrong...

  19. A little perspective, please

    Paul Greenberg
    To read this week's press coverage, you'd think not just a landmark Supreme Court case was upon us, but a jurisprudential Armageddon. The moment of truth has arrived, the die is about to be cast, the Rubicon crossed ... pick your own favorite cliche....
