ROBERT KNIGHT: Forcing gay marriage on American’s would be tyranny

While the U.S. Supreme Court held an Alice-in-Wonderland session on the nature and value of marriage, one of the nation's largest cities lay partly in ruins over the death of a black man in police custody. Published May 3, 2015

ROBERT KNIGHT: Indiana pizza parlor victim of gay lobby’s intolerance of Christians

It took a day or two, but the intolerant left managed to turn a tiny, Christian, family-owned pizza parlor in Indiana into a useful "face of hate." Nice piece of work, during Holy Week. It's part of the left's media campaign to terrify anyone even thinking of opposing compulsory celebration of same-sex "marriage," and it comes amid a fevered debate over Indiana's joining 18 other states and the federal government last week with a Religious Freedom Restoration Act.

ROBERT KNIGHT: Snowy winter hard on climate change theory

As much of New England continues to dig out from late winter's massive snowstorms, the climate change lobby is doubling down. Published March 29, 2015

ROBERT KNIGHT: Obama’s mandatory voting plan

It's not enough to propose liberal ideas. Eventually, you must use force against your fellow citizens if they don't embrace them. Coercion is at the heart of the liberal enterprise. Published March 22, 2015

ROBERT KNIGHT: Iran letter worth Obama embarrassment if it halts bad nuclear deal

As our republic reels under the Obama administration's lawlessness, it's heartening to see the Republican-led Congress show some backbone — at least in foreign policy. OK, with the glaring exception of illegal immigration. Published March 15, 2015

ROBERT KNIGHT: Museum of the Bible would remind visitors of God’s grace

In a time when the most basic truths and institutions are under relentless attack, it should hearten many to know that a gargantuan cultural counterstrike is taking shape in the shadow of the U.S. Capitol dome. Published March 8, 2015

ROBERT KNIGHT: Senate passage of Homeland bill sign of Republican weakness

No wonder Mitch McConnell skipped this past week's Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC). He's too busy with his day job as Minority Leader of the United States Senate. Published March 1, 2015

ROBERT KNIGHT: Obama blames economics for terrorism, gives Islamist killers a pass

We can put to rest the notion that State Department spokeswoman Marie Harf committed a gaffe when she said that more jobs would keep Islamic militants from their genocidal mission. Published February 22, 2015

ROBERT KNIGHT: Obama’s lies on same-sex marriage

It's been a good couple of weeks for the truth. It always is when lies are found out. Published February 15, 2015

ROBERT KNIGHT: Endless debt ceiling hikes must stop

In 1973, National Lampoon put a dog on its cover with a gun to the animal's head. The tongue-in-cheek headline was: "If you don't buy this magazine, we'll kill this dog." Published February 8, 2015

ROBERT KNIGHT: Same-sex marriage encounters Constitution in Alabama

Many of us have wondered how long it would be before a prominent official proclaimed that rogue federal judges, like the proverbial emperor, have no clothes and thus no authority to make up laws. Published February 1, 2015

ROBERT KNIGHT: Obama’s Free Stuff Army

Fresh from offering "free" health care, "free" phones and "free" food to the masses, he's upped the bribery to "free" community college tuition and "free" child care. It's not that the Clintons oppose any of these; they just need to affect moderation in case Hillary runs for president and has to knock back boilermakers again with the good old boys in Pennsylvania taverns.

ROBERT KNIGHT: Political correctness censors America

The massacre in Paris by Muslim militants at the Charlie Hebdo magazine office was about much more than freedom of speech. After all, militants also killed four hostages at a Jewish market, and that was not about freedom to buy kosher food. Published January 18, 2015

ROBERT KNIGHT: Liberal fear of Islmophobia

What do far-left organizations have in common with Islamist lobbying groups? They keep and share enemies lists — of conservatives. Published January 11, 2015

ROBERT KNIGHT: Historic January date falls on ordinary day

The year has barely begun, and most of us are tired of hearing bad news unless it happens to liberals, as occurred in November. A look back at recent times on this date might be in order. The following are factual, up to a point. Published January 4, 2015

ROBERT KNIGHT: Police shootings, protests expose double standard of blame for haters

When it comes to assigning culpability for crimes by disturbed individuals, it depends on who the victims and perpetrators are. Published December 28, 2014
