First Amendment: The administration seeks new power over hiring and firing at religious institutions. This is more than just a culture-war skirmish. It's a threat to liberty. Americans constantly hear warnings about the threats posed by the religious right to the separation of church and state. Like prayers at high school football games, these usually turn out to be trivial or symbolic, and no threat at all. Much less is said about encroachments from the political left. These are more dangerous, both to religious institutions and to civil society in general. When government can make the rules for communities of...

Barack Obama has gone to Congress asking for more money to spend. The President, in a rambling and tedious exercise mixing blame with demands, made quite a few dubious statements in laying out the case for Congress to vote for the plan which as yet does not exist. Much like Obamacare, Congress must ultimately vote for the bill to know what is in it. At one point Mr. Obama made a major gaffe; he identified Abraham Lincoln as the founder of the Republican Party. Lincoln did not join the Republicans until 1856, over two years after the party was founded....

Hundreds of protesters in Cairo on Friday were tearing down a newly built wall around the building that houses the Israeli Embassy, a show of political rage on another tense day in Egypt's capital. CNN saw soldiers and police stand by as demonstrators tried to destroy the wall, built for the high-rise building's protection. The makeshift wall surrounds another wall around the building. Protesters cheered the demolition and chanted for the ouster of Israel's ambassador. State TV said some protesters tried to scale the inner wall after they worked to take down the outer wall.

Officials from the Department of Energy have for months been sitting in on board meetings as "observers" at Solyndra, getting an up-close view as the solar energy company careened towards bankruptcy after spending more than $500 million in federal loan money.

The company, which closed its doors last week and laid off 1,100 workers, has been a subject...

Moammar Gadhafi bankrolled and championed the vision of a United States of Africa, with himself as the continental president. As Libya struggles to find its equilibrium on the cusp of what appears to be the post-Gadhafi era, one question is its future as part of Africa. The African Union has not officially recognized the rebel leadership in Libya, saying "regime change" and outside intervention were wrong... More than a dozen African countries have unilaterally recognized Libya's rebel leadership, though not some of the continent's heavyweights -- or the African Union. This has prompted a furious response from the transitional administration....

Wow. Now this is crazy. Just when you thought the anti-American New York Times could not get any nuttier they start promoting Sharia Law. The New York Times reported: MORE than a dozen American states are considering outlawing aspects of Shariah law. Some of these efforts would curtail Muslims from settling disputes over dietary laws and marriage through religious arbitration, while others would go even further in stigmatizing Islamic life: a bill recently passed by the Tennessee General Assembly equates Shariah with a set of rules that promote “the destruction of the national existence of the United States.” Supporters of...
