Hands Down - The best editorial page you will find

is Investor's Business Daily.  IBD publishes Common Sense - easy to read editorials the expose the virtues and benefits of free markets and Capitalism.  A sampling: 

Politics: In his swan song to the Senate, Chris Dodd decried Washington's "intense partisan polarization" and called Congress "completely dysfunctional." Sorry, senator, but partisanship just might save this great nation.

Big Government: A questionable food safety bill in search of a crisis passed the Senate, but may hit a snag in the House. This power grab of the nation's food supply may end up benefiting a certain Hungarian billionaire. 

Global Warming: The secretary of energy says the U.S. doesn't need to be 100% certain humans are heating the planet to enact policies to mitigate climate change. Apparently just a hunch will do.

Regulation: In the name of fairness, a Federal Communications Commission plan to impose "net neutrality" without any legislative or legal authority will in effect be silencing a conduit for the truth that keeps us free.

Government Spending: Is President Obama's proposal to freeze the pay of some federal employees a good idea? Only in the same way that an alcoholic switching from whiskey to gin is.

Leadership: As vile as the WikiLeaks theft and dissemination of American secrets is, the ultimate responsibility for defending the U.S. lies with the Obama administration. Its weak response raises question after question.
