The Best Editorial Page you will find. . .

is easily Investor's Business Daily.  IBD's editorial page is a must read, combining common sense with the benefits of Free Markets and Capitalism.  A sampling. . .

Racism:  The once-proud NAACP has dissed a new African-American Republican senator as a token who knows nothing about civil rights because, well, he's a Republican — unlike, say, Democrats who opposed the Civil Rights Act.

Economy:  We're told Friday's jobs report is evidence of slow and steady progress. But it actually documents the new normal of Obama's economy — anemic job growth, chronic long-term unemployment and falling wages.

Socialism:  While the U.S. punishes millionaires, Russia and China reward them. In the upside-down era of Barack Obama, the capitalists act like communists and the communists act like capitalists.

Hypocrisy:  Arab oil-financed, anti-Semitic broadcaster Al-Jazeera has bought Current TV, global-warming crusader Al Gore's failed news channel. How will Gore spend his estimated $100 million in oil-tainted cash?

Economy:  President Obama and his acolytes are gushing over his fiscal cliff victory. But the glow isn't likely to last long, once everyone figures out that the tax hikes Obama wrangled from Republicans only made matters worse.

Guns:  The mayor of what is at once America's most gun-controlled city and its murder capital wants an assault weapons ban like the one he pushed in 1994. Except it didn't work then, and it won't work now.

Guns:  The left keeps asking why anyone needs an "assault" rifle. Here's one reason — in 2010, a Texas teen used a rifle similar to the one used in Newtown to defend his younger sister and himself from home invaders.
