  Driving under the influence is one of the most common crimes in the country. No other crime so regularly affects individuals from all social strata.

• A History of Presidential Pardons
  he primary reason for the controversy underlying many pardons is a simple one: second chances for serious offenses are always debatable. Every individual receiving a pardon has been subject to the system, and has been deemed worthy of some sort of stigma or punishment. It is a testament to the soundness of the pardon power, however, that pardon controversies are relatively rare in relation to the number of pardons actually granted.

• Don't Bring Up Race, It's Poor Salesmanship
  Attorney General Eric Holder is right. There is something amiss with our black urban populations, but it is not a frank discussion about race that we need. We need something more substantive than that.

• The States, the Stimulus, and Federalism's Prisoners' Dilemma
  The Department of the Treasury could do no worse if its bureaucrats drove a fleet of windowless white vans across the country asking the people if they would like some candy. What we need is a second nullification crisis that moves to constrain the supremacy clause to its true constitutional limits, challenging the tenet that the federal government can force state action by withholding federal funds.

• Taxing Arrogance
  Barack Obama's supporters voted for change. I just don't think the change they got was the change they had in mind. The message is clear, no matter how earnestly the president employs Newspeak rhetoric in a vain attempt to muddle it - there are two sets of rules, one for us, and one for them. The administration has made no effort to weed out the tax-encumbered nominees from the process itself.

• 10 Considerations for Republicans Who Are Supporting Nashville's English Only Amendment
  The arguments for English only legislation are weak at best. If the Republican Party is to grow and thrive, we must cast aside any such efforts. Recently, in Nashville, Tennessee an effort was made which failed 57% to 43% in a voter referendum. It was defeated by voters on both the Left and the Right. Nativism is not a Republican trait - it is a self-defeating tendency that we must dismiss.

• With English Only, the Know Nothings Are Back
  We are, in effect, witnessing the rebirth of the Know Nothings in Nashville, circa 2009.

• A Trillion Reasons to Live: Obama's Stimulus Deficit
  Remember, it's no longer the size of government that matters. The president said so. Thus, we finally now know what makes up "hope" and "change". Snippy come backs (a la "I won"). The refusal to answer the press' questions ("I just came down to meet you guys"). Nominating lobbyists even if he said he wouldn't (wait, that is change...). And, most substantively, spending a lot of money.

• Defeating Socialism, Defending Freedom: It's Not the Free Market that Caused the Financial Crisis
  The socialist alternative demands that one man rule over another because there is more of the former than the latter. That is not a democratic republic. That is a mobocracy.

• Why Is a Trademark Important?
  Most business owners do not give a second thought about their trademark.Sometimes this works out okay. Often times, it works out okay. However, it takes only one major infringer with superior assets to water down one's brand and goodwill and significantly diminish or destroy one's livelihood.

• The Obama Meltdown?
  Barack Obama (accidentally) refers to his "Muslim faith" on George Stephanopolous' show, waivers and quakes on every position he has hitherto held (abortion, taxes, Iraq, the surge), and now faces a 10 point deficit to McCain/Palin in the latest USA Today likely voter poll. I can hear the Democrats now, wondering how the rest of America could be so stupid. Someone please be so generous and provide them a mirror.
