These "loans" were about equal to the yearly total GDP of the nation of Greece, and about equal to the GDP of the Dallas/Ft. Worth Metroplex. In other words, these ingrates were staked with the value of their entire economy for a year and now demand to welch on the conditions for repayment. It...

Frank Marshall Davis is doing handstands of joy in his grave knowing what his young comrade has grown into.

The videos of this incident are disturbing. Was there a crime upon the part of the police officers taking part? Beyond that initial question, do we go to the next level and conclude whatever was done to Mr. Garner was done out of racial animus? I suggest that the motivation for the arrest of...
