Gregory Kane: Republican form of government protects Bill of Rights
Gregory Kane
Published: Wed, Apr 17, 2013
There's a reason the U.S. Constitution says that the federal government must guarantee that states have a republican form of government. That's because the Unites States of America is a republic, not a democracy. The Founding Fathers were wise to choose a republican form of government, and...

Gregory Kane: In defense of Jay-Z, Beyonce and Cuban tourism
Gregory Kane
Published: Sun, Apr 14, 2013
Wouldn't it be downright odd, if not disturbingly weird, that it would take a visit by rapper Sean Carter -- better known as Jay-Z -- and singer Beyonce Knowles to change U.S. policy toward Cuba? The couple decided to celebrate their fifth wedding anniversary with a trip to Cuba. And, as...

Gregory Kane: Carrey got ugly when he dropped the mask of civility
Gregory Kane
Published: Sun, Apr 7, 2013
Count me among those very few conservatives who are not -- repeat, not -- angry with "comedian" and actor Jim Carrey. I put the word "comedian" in quotes for a reason. It's in the interests of full disclosure. You might want to take what follows with a grain of salt, because Carrey is one...

Gregory Kane: PC Thought Police target Dr. Ben Carson
Gregory Kane
Published: Wed, Apr 3, 2013
It's a combined operation of the liberal, lamestream media and America's Politically Correct Thought Police. The goal is to get renowned Johns Hopkins neurosurgeon Dr. Ben Carson to shut the hell up. As long as Carson was successfully separating conjoined twins, he was cool with the lamestream...

Gregory Kane: Camden's lesson in failure
Gregory Kane
Published: Sun, Mar 31, 2013
This is almost shooting-fish-in-a-barrel easy. Writing something about Camden, N.J., public schools being so dismal that the state had to take them over? New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, a Republican, announced early last week the reasons for the takeover, and it's hard to argue with the stats,...

Gregory Kane: Some veterans still offended that Hanoi fought back
Gregory Kane
Published: Wed, Mar 27, 2013
Sometimes the voice of dissent must be a conservative one. Unlike members of the American Legion, other veterans' groups and Sen. John McCain, I was not offended when producers of the CBS show "The Amazing Race" decided to use the site of a downed B-52 bomber as a kind of prop. I wasn't...

Gregory Kane: The wrestler who helped bring justice to Steubenville
Gregory Kane
Published: Sun, Mar 24, 2013
Until recently, Trent Mays was the quarterback for Steubenville High School's football team. Sean McGhee is just a wrestler. The difference in the sport of choice for the two teens probably has nothing to do with their worldview or values, but I'm going to make that stretch anyway, because they...

Gregory Kane: Brain-dead haters operate on conservative neurosurgeon
Gregory Kane
Published: Wed, Mar 20, 2013
Wasn't I supposed to get a wagon to welcome me to the lunatic fringe? That's where I am, you know: out on the lunatic fringe, with all those other conservative types that took issue with Baltimore neurosurgeon Ben Carson being called a "token" black. Actually, to be fair to American...

Gregory Kane: Newtown fever strikes in Maryland
Gregory Kane
Published: Sun, Mar 17, 2013
I've never lost a child, neither from suicide nor any other cause. So I can't even pretend to know the pain Chris McComas is feeling. Around this time last year, McComas had a 15-year-old daughter named Grace, who attended Glenelg High School in Maryland's Howard County. On Easter Sunday of...

Gregory Kane: Court can't humble New York's nanny mayor
Gregory Kane
Published: Wed, Mar 13, 2013
Nothing could be finer than seeing an enemy of liberty taken down several notches. New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, the nation's No. 1 enemy of liberty, was recently taken down at least a couple hundred notches. And we have New York Supreme Court Justice Milton A. Tingling Jr. to thank...
