by Patrick J. Buchanan - March 26, 1998 Contrast, if you will, the president's stubborn refusal to apologize for his own sins with his enthusiasm for apologizing for America's alleged sins. Not since the holy Roman emperor spent days in the snows at Canosa, begging for the pope's absolution, has a national leader groveled like Bill Clinton in his first 48 hours in Africa...

The Irreconcibable Crisis of Conservatism?
by Patrick J. Buchanan - March 23, 1998 Unbridled capitalism is an awesome force that creates new factories, wealth and opportunities that go first to society's risk takers and holders of capital.

Anti-Americanism in L.A.
by Patrick J. Buchanan - March 5, 1998 Why would about 91,000 of the 91,235 fans in the Coliseum on Sunday night act as though they hated the United States? Why would U.S. citizens and residents blow horns and boo loudly enough to drown out the U.S. national anthem? Why would those who attend U.S. schools and receive U.S. medical care feel it necessary to pelt any U.S. player running near the Continue reading...
