As recently as last week, Sen. Tom Coburn (R-Okla.) was one of a handful of members of Congress who asked the Government Accountability Office to investigate possible “duplication of effort and internal redundancies” involving agencies of the federal government.

April 12th, 2011 · No Comments
By Paul R. Hollrah, Guest Blogger The Democratic Party is the oldest of the two major U.S. political parties. It was first organized in the early 1790s by anti-federalists, led by Thomas Jefferson and James Madison, as the Democratic-Republican Party.

Border Fence Project Buried by Homeland Security
January 15th, 2011 · 3 Comments
Having spent a number of years in the media relations business, I’m familiar with the concept of releasing “bad news” on Friday. Yesterday, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano used that approach to share news about her decision to cancel the Secure Border Initiative (a.k.a., “electronic fence”) that was supposed to help safeguard the nation’s southern [...]

One and a half years ago, the folks at the CATO Institute published a piece under the headline, Be Wary of Using Military as Police.
