Thomas Lowell argues that local height restrictions on San Mateo buildings create broader costs across land, housing, traffic, and urban sprawl. He compares market price signals to government undercounting of costs, warning officials and taxpayers pay the price.

Rice testifies with authority before 9/11 commission

Cal Thomas notes Condoleezza Rice remained composed through three hours of questioning. He praises her oathbound stance and argues her emphasis on wartime resolve and preventing future attacks. He warns that terrorists are present, calls for decisive action, and cites historical lessons to support a hard line. Rice’s testimony is seen as substantial though not revealing new facts. Thomas hosts After Hours on Fox News Channel.
