John Wilkes Booth saw himself as ridding the nation of a tyrant, but the nation mostly saw him as the treasonous assassin of their elected leader. See how this works? It's all a matter of perspective, isn't it.

The leader of the Mississippi Tea Party is calling on God to save the country from "criminal invaders" following the Supreme Court's decision to uphol...

Republicans in the New York state government are attempting to pass a law that would ban anonymous comments online. Even if they actually passed the act, once it arrived in a federal court it would be tossed out in a "New York minute" (as they say).

Within the context of illogic and paranoia that has at times defined Barack Obama's opponents, it is tempting to write off those who make the most strident claims against him. But we shouldn't be afraid to ask big, fundamental questions about the conduct of the administration and its officials.

WASHINGTON -- A Republican New Hampshire state lawmaker is calling for the formation of a commission to bring charges of treason against President Oba...

It's called "the king of crimes." In political debate, it can serve as the ace of trumps. And, like much in our culture, it has been cheapened almost beyond recognition.

Bruce Bartlett, who served as an adviser to Ronald Reagan and as a Treasury official under George H.W. Bush, called Republican presidential hopeful Ri...

What was Rick Perry really getting at? It seems clear that he was warning Ben Bernanke not to improve the economy before November 2012 because it might help President Obama's re-election chances.

The Lord of Flies nestled within America's intelligence establishment sent lead bees to sting Martin Luther King, Che Guevara, and Malcolm X when each...

If Obama had asked the American people, I think he would have found almost unanimous agreement that it was worth spending $3,000 over the next 12 months to break the backs of those who were trying to blackmail him.

I have been searching for clear distinctions in kind between Dick Cheney's outing of CIA covert operative Valerie Plame and the most recent WikiLeaks data dump. For the most part it has been a fruitless exercise.

How do we turn WikiLeaks off? As one of my intelligence community sources says, we need to eliminate MICE. By that he means Money, Ideology, Compromise, Ego, the common denominators of all leaks. In other words, leaks will persist as long as human nature does. A counter to the above carrots may be a swift and public stick so that potential leakers think twice, or a hundred times about interfering with military operations.

I was going to write about Legitimate Grievances today, but something more important has come up: Obama's Choice. Context first. My friend and...

I've never been to a tea party. Really. Not even as a little girl. Was never my thing. So when I decided I was going to infiltrate the Tri-State ...

Sedition is an attempt to overthrow the constitutional government of the United States. That's how far un-American rhetoric has penetrated the conservative movement.
