Dr. Thomas Sowell is an economist, political writer and senior fellow at the Hoover Institute. He writes from a conservative/libertarian perspective.
Here are a few quips from his column:
"Some people actually think that televising Congress gives us information. What it really does is give politicians millions of dollars worth of free advertising, while they play charades on camera to fool the rest of us."
"One way to reduce illegal immigration might be to translate some of our far left publications into Spanish and give everyone in Mexico subscriptions. After they read how terrible this country is, many may want to stay away."
"Whenever I see one of Barack Obama's smooth performances, it reminds me of a saying from my old neighborhood in Harlem: "An eel is like sandpaper compared to you."
"Senator John McCain could never convince me to vote for him. Only Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama can cause me to vote for McCain."
His writing style reminds me of what Jesus said to Nathanael in the first chapter of John's Gospel, "An Israelite in whom their is no guile" (1:39). You can read the rest here:
