The Coming Revelation of the 'Global Warming' Fraud Resembles the Obamacare Lie

The second shoe is preparing to drop to shatter the world view of so-called Progressives. Coming, global revelations will demonstrate the fraud behind the theory of man-caused, catastrophic, global warming, just like the real world has shattered the falsehoods behind Obamacare.

That is because the underlying reason for both frauds was the same: to expand government power. Enablers went along with the fraud in both cases for the same underlying reason – political correctness. In both cases, going along with the cause for the assumed public good […]

Obama's Shameful Calculated Deception Deceives America Over Obamacare

By |2013-11-12T15:59:25-05:00November 12th, 2013|

This column by ACRU General Counsel Peter Ferrara was published November 5, 2013 on Forbes.com.

Every one of the major promises Obama made to the American people regarding Obamacare has now been proven to be shamefully deceitful.

Do you remember, “If you like your health care plan, you will be able to keep your health care plan. Period. No one will take it away. No matter what.” All we have heard about as Obamacare has gone into effect is millions of Americans losing their health insurance.

Consider: Florida Blue announces termination of 300,000 policies, about 80 percent of its individual policies in the […]

Loving and Hating America

By |2013-10-23T14:07:17-04:00October 23rd, 2013|

As I’ve documented in the past, many leftist teachers teach our youngsters to hate our country. For example, University of Hawaii Professor Haunani-Kay Trask counseled her students, “We need to think very, very clearly about who the enemy is. The enemy is the United States of America and everyone who supports it.” Some universities hire former terrorists to teach and indoctrinate students. Kathy Boudin, former Weather Underground member and convicted murderer, is on the Columbia University School of Social Work’s faculty. Her Weather Underground […]

Letting No Crisis Go to Waste

This column by ACRU Senior Fellow Robert Knight was published October 20, 2013 on The Washington Times website.

Where others see a calamity, Obama sees golden opportunity.

Chutzpah is defined in some dictionaries as “shameless audacity.” It’s not a big enough word to describe what Barack Obama, author of the best-seller The Audacity of Hope, said after securing a GOP surrender in the fiscal showdown last week.

“We’ve got to get out of the habit of governing by crisis,” President Obama said with a straight face.

In his nearly five years as president, Mr. Obama has governed almost solely […]

Racial Trade-offs

This column by ACRU Policy Board Member and Professor of Economics Dr. Walter E. Williams was published October 2, 2013 on Townhall.com.

Trade-offs apply to our economic lives, as well as our political lives. That means getting more of one thing requires giving up something else. Let’s look at some examples.

Black congressmen and black public officials in general, including Barack Obama, always side with teachers unions in their opposition to educational vouchers, tuition tax credits, charter schools and other measures that would allow black parents to take their children out of failing public schools. Most black politicians and many black […]

It's the President's Fault

By |2013-10-02T12:11:40-04:00October 2nd, 2013|

This column by ACRU General Counsel Peter Ferrara was published October 2, 2013 on the American Spectator website.

Day 2 of the government shutdown, and look out the window. The sun is still shining, and the sky is still blue. The birds are chirping.

The Great Government Shutdown is not that big a deal, even for the government. The federal civilian workforce includes 2.9 million bureaucrats. Out of that, only 800,000 are being furloughed, or just 27%. Even for these workers, the shutdown just amounts to a paid vacation for a few days.

Just like the overballyhood sequester, average Americans won’t notice any […]

Honesty and Trust

By |2013-09-29T23:09:36-04:00September 29th, 2013|

This column by ACRU General Counsel Peter Ferrara was published September 25, 2013 on Townhall.com.

Dishonesty, lying and cheating are not treated with the right amount of opprobrium in today’s society. To gain an appreciation for the significance of honesty and trust, consider what our day-to-day lives would be like if we couldn’t trust anyone. When we purchase a bottle of 100 pills from our pharmacist, how many of us bother to count the pills? We pull in to a gasoline station and pay $35 for 10 gallons of gasoline. How do we know for sure whether we in fact received 10 […]

Conservatives Rescuing Obama

By |2013-09-20T07:16:57-04:00September 20th, 2013|

This column by ACRU General Counsel Peter Ferrara was published September 18, 2013 on Forbes.com.

Obamacare has not even gone into effect yet, and there it lies substantively smashed on the floor in ruins. The cost of health insurance on the Obamacare Exchanges for next year is already soaring, for those states that will have Obamacare Exchanges opening on October 1. Obamacare also already promises to limit access to health care for those with Obamacare health insurance next year, meaning you won’t have the same access to the same doctors and hospitals that you have with health insurance today.

Thought Obama promised if you like […]

'Hope And Change' Means Punishingly Slow Growth for Obama's Biggest Supporters

By |2013-09-17T13:13:01-04:00September 17th, 2013|

This column by ACRU General Counsel Peter Ferrara was published September 13, 2013 on Forbes.com.

Steve Moore of the Wall Street Journal explained President Obama’s 2012 reelection in the September 4 edition as follows: “Mr. Obama was reelected with 51% of the vote….He cleaned up with 60% of the youth vote, 67% of single women, 93% of blacks, 71% of Hispanics, and 64% of those without a high school diploma, according to exit polls.”

But it is precisely these groups that President Obama’s economic policies have punished the most. The latest data on incomes shows that since the end of the […]

You Don't Have to Stay Poor

By |2013-09-12T09:27:21-04:00September 12th, 2013|

This column by ACRU Policy Board Member and Professor of Economics Dr. Walter E. Williams was published September 11, 2013 on Townhall.com.

No one can blame you if you start out in life poor, because how you start is not your fault. If you stay poor, you’re to blame because it is your fault. Nowhere has this been made clearer than in Dennis Kimbro’s new book, The Wealth Choice: Success Secrets of Black Millionaires.

Kimbro, a business professor at Clark Atlanta University, conducted extensive face-to-face interviews, took surveys and had other interactions with nearly 1,000 of America’s black financial elite, many […]
