  1. Cliff jumping with Obama

    — Why are Republicans playing the Democrats' game that the "fiscal cliff" is all about taxation?
    — Why are Republicans playing the Democrats' game that the "fiscal cliff" is all about taxation? House Speaker John Boehner already made the preemptive concession of agreeing to raise revenues. But the insistence on doing so by eliminating...

    <span class="runtimeTopic">WASHINGTON</span> &mdash; The Obama administration eased the way Wednesday for illegal immigrants who are immediate relatives of American citizens to apply for permanent residency, a change that could affect as many as 1 million of the estimated 11 million immigrants unlawfully in the U.S.

  3. Your Quinncome tax hits home

    Two years ago on their night of infamy, 1/11/11, General Assembly Democrats &mdash; and exclusively Democrats &mdash; voted to raise the Illinois personal income tax rate by 67 percent. Many Illinoisans have been furious about that sop to chronic mismanagement, although not as furious as they would have been if their paychecks had actually been gouged by those additional 2 percentage points.

  4. Obama's obligation

    Barack Obama came to prominence as a champion of the idea that the elements dividing Americans are less meaningful than those uniting us &mdash; and that the real differences can be bridged. "There's not a liberal America and a conservative America; there's the United States of America," he proclaimed at the 2004 Democratic convention.

  5. Return of the real Obama

    WASHINGTON &mdash; The rout was complete, the retreat disorderly. President Barack Obama got his tax hikes &mdash; naked of spending cuts &mdash; passed by the ostensibly Republican House of Representatives. After which, you might expect him to pivot to his self-proclaimed "principle" of fiscal "balance" by taking the lead on reducing spending. "Why," asked The Washington Post on the eve of the final "fiscal cliff" agreement, "is the nation's leader not embracing and then explaining the balanced reforms the nation needs?"

  7. Angry at the NRA? That Won't Reduce Gun Violence

    Support for stricter U.S. gun laws hasn't jumped as fast or as far in recent weeks as many liberals had hoped and expected. If you're wondering why, maybe the reason is the shakiness of the public's trust in government itself.

  8. Unemployment rate unchanged, ditto for economic uncertainty

    The December jobs report released Friday by the Bureau of Labor Statistics showed that the economy remained in low gear, with private employers continuing to add jobs just slightly faster than the number of new workers seeking them. That's about the...

  9. Obama, sequestered

    During the epic deficits-and-debt donnybrook of mid-2011, two top aides to President Barack Obama proposed an ultimatum so onerous that Congress and the White House surely wouldn't let it happen.

  10. Don't count Biden out in 2016

    As the second Obama term gets underway, much is being said and written about the president finally emerging as a tougher, stronger Democrat in the liberal mold of past party greats. His second inaugural address pressed Republicans in Congress to accept a broader, more aggressive package of social programs and reforms than he embraced in his first term.

  12. On Obamacare, sequester and taxes: predictions revisited

    Politicians (including former politicians) like to be right more than most people. You see, in politics, public officials live or die by their (very) public opinions concerning the issues of the day. It is with this somber thought in mind that I reissue...
