End The Wars, Win The Antiwar Vote the world's a scarier place now than when 9/11 happened. But with the right leadership, a lot more is possible, too. If we're ever going to win the war on terror, the first step is to stop spreading it.

There's No "Great American Comeback" Low overall unemployment means little when half of Americans now work low-wage jobs. Manufacturing remains in decline, farm bankruptcies are spiraling, and union membership just hit an all-time low. Even as 140 million Americans are poor or low-income, the administration is working relentlessly to shred Medicaid, Social Security, and the food stamp system.

Barack Obama and the Pitfalls of Priestliness The Obama administration's "just wars" have eroded longstanding norms, set dangerous precedents, and provoked a host of very real unintended consequences from North Africa to the Middle East and beyond.
