Barry’s Issues
- Greek Drama Will Continue February 9, 2012The deal reportedly reached Thursday to release another 130 billion euro bailout for Greece is just one more temporary fix. Greece will get enough new cash to avoid the messy default it faced a few weeks hence, and the pain of adjustment will be shared by private bondholders, who are expected to write off about half the value of their Greek bonds; the Europe […]Terry Miller
- Obama Gets Hit with Another Religious Freedom Lawsuit February 9, 2012The Becket Fund for Religious Liberty has already filed two lawsuits challenging the Obamacare regulation that requires many religious employers to provide health insurance coverage for sterilization, contraception, and what many people believe are abortion-inducing drugs. Those lawsuits are on behalf of Belmont Abbey College (a Benedictine Catholic college […]Thomas Messner
- Family Fact of the Week: Closing the Marriage Gap Between Rich and Poor February 9, 2012While economic disparities between rich and poor are vehemently decried in stump speeches and the main stream media, value differences are often considered as a third-rail issue to be avoided in public discussion. In typical fashion, Charles Murray broaches this subject head-on in his newly released book Coming Apart, which documents a cultural drift and wid […]Collette Caprara
- No Child Left Behind Waivers Surrender Education Control to Washington February 9, 2012The Obama Administration will announce later today that it is awarding No Child Left Behind (NCLB) waivers to 10 states: Colorado, Georgia, Florida, Indiana, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Jersey, Oklahoma, and Tennessee. New Mexico is the only state that applied for a waiver and will not receive one, although the state is amending its application i […]Lindsey Burke
- No Transparency Regarding Russia’s Strategic Buildup February 9, 2012In the New Strategic Arm Reductions Treaty (New START), the United States agreed to a weak verification regime. An indication of this is that U.S. negotiators agreed to degrade the telemetry regime in the original START from verification to a transparency measure. Under New START, each party is required to exchange telemetry from up to five launches. It appe […]Baker Spring
- Military Maintenance Critical to a Ready Force February 9, 2012In a recent report titled “A Historical Perspective on ‘Hollow Forces,’” the Congressional Research Service (CRS) surveyed past efforts to keep the military from going “hollow.” The CRS is spot on in bringing attention to the issue. We need to look for the warning signs that budget cuts are leaving us with a military that is not up to the job of defending us […]Brian Slattery
- Are We Leaving Afghanistan Too Soon? February 9, 2012In an interview with the Military Times, Lieutenant Colonel Daniel Davis, a veteran of two tours of duty in Afghanistan, said he believes that U.S. leaders should come clean about the “absence of success on virtually every level” in Afghanistan, the central battlefield of America’s global war against terrorists. After traveling 9,000 miles and interviewing 2 […]Corey Gustafson
- National Marriage Week: The Costs of Delaying Marriage February 9, 2012Starting a career, paying off student loans, and buying a house are all momentous occasions on the journey to American adulthood. While many young men and women still achieve these milestones, tying the knot and settling down are events increasingly avoided on young Americans’ path toward maturity. The increase in the average age at first marriage and the st […]Sarah Torre

Click here to listen. What is the importance of CPAC? What’s Heritage’s role this year? What advice should guide conservatism moving foward? Listen to Dr […]David Weinberger
- Congressional Research Service Misses the Point on Defense Budget February 9, 2012The recently released Congressional Research Service (CRS) report “A Historical Perspective on ‘Hollow Forces’” misses two important points in its analysis of the defense budget, impacts of the Budget Control Act (BCA) of 2011, and the usage of the term “hollow force.” First, the report does not even attempt to analyze impacts of the sequestration process un […]Michaela Bendikova
