Sen. Jim Bunning was right all along. For this, an act of integrity, everyone in Washington and the media piled on him. So I'll defend him. Bunning actually favors unemployment benefits, but he wants Congress to find a way to pay for it.
Budgets are being cut from state-supported universities primarily because states are facing budget shortfalls of historic proportions. However, short-sighted state politics like this will lead to long-term consequences.
Health-care proposals from the White House follow a set pattern. The President identifies a real problem; he talks about the need for bipartisan action; he finally proposes a partisan solution that has been tried somewhere and failed miserably.
