National Security: That North Korea can deliver nuclear ballistic missiles, as leaked intelligence reports, is about as shocking as Hitler invading Poland. We've been letting this threat grow for many years.
April 15: Having filed their 1040 forms, most Americans assume that they are done with government for the year. But they're not. Citizens won't be free of the government's hand for a few more days.
U.S. Postal Service: It's the same old story. Congress gets its way on keeping Saturday delivery, further tying the hands of the management trying to keep the struggling mail system afloat.
Health Care: As Democrats grow increasingly worried that ObamaCare will explode on the launch pad just as midterm elections get going, the Obama administration seeks to pin blame on Republicans. Good luck with that.
Entitlements: The $5 billion fund set up by ObamaCare to cover new high-risk insurance pools in each state from pre-existing conditions is already running out of money — a full year before projections.
Media Bias: A basketball coach who shoves and curses at his players merits constant coverage by a media also transfixed by Newtown. But a Philadelphia doctor on trial for murdering a woman and seven babies? It's ignored.
Fiscal Policy: Shorn of its accounting gimmicks, the president's budget isn't a "balanced" plan to get the debt crisis under control. It's a monument to fiscal irresponsibility.
