A broad commentary notes frequent groundless suits target officials and professionals, urging national tort reform to curb litigation costs. It cites caps on medical damages in Kansas, ambulance chasing stereotypes, and examples like a man suing a cable company for addiction and a couple suing an airline for a leg cramp.
Rich Lowry analyzes Arizona’s 56 percent approval of Proposition 200 demanding citizenship proof to register and ID checks for voting and public benefits. He argues elites resist enforcement, cites opposition from Napolitano, McCain, unions, bishops, and business groups, and contends added enforcement could curb illegal immigration and reduce costs.
A writer reflecting on Veterans Day and the meaning of service recalls his father in World War II and his son LW, a Marine who recently completed a four year commitment. A road trip from Las Vegas to Twentynine Palms prompts a candid conversation about sacrifice, duty, and whether the war was worth it.
A speaker reflects on the meaning of military service from World War I to modern conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. He honors veterans, urges gratitude to those who protect freedom, notes the birthright of liberty for all, and calls readers to thank current servicemembers and remember those who sacrificed.
The writer advocates retaining pencil and paper ballots over electronic systems. They reference election issues from 2000 such as hanging chads and battery failures, praising a reliable, non electronic method and hoping future ballots remain simple and functional.
