The Best Editorial Page you will find...

is Investor's Business Daily.  IBD publishes easy-to-read, hard hitting editorials that show the benefits of Free Markets and Capitalism.  A sampling of recent IBD editorials:

Regulatory Tyranny: Washington has extended the deadline by 60 days for hotels to install lifts for the disabled in their pools. But nothing changes in two months. The government will still be invading private matters.

Energy:  The economist at the newspaper of record defends the president's energy policy of Solyndra, Chevy Volts and algae while dismissing the oil boom on private lands as a small-town hiccup with no impact on price.

Nuclear Terror:  The existential dangers to Israel posed by a nuclear Iran are commonly understood. Less appreciated is Tehran's threat to the Saudi's rule of the land of Mecca and to other nonjihadist Islamic nations.

Energy:  Just as President Obama was lecturing the country about how more drilling won't lower gas prices, oil markets called his lie — cutting prices $2 a barrel in mere talk of releasing some oil from the strategic reserve.

The Obama Record:  The president's shredding of the Constitution began at the Preamble's provision for the common defense. He gave away our missile defense to appease Moscow and betray our allies.

Medical Reform:  We had to pass it to find what was in it, we were told. As the lies and consequences of health care reform become known, the Congressional Budget Office reveals its true cost — another lie all unto itself.

Bias:  Having lost that tingly feeling up his leg, MSNBC's Chris Matthews savages GOP presidential candidates as belonging to cults. Well, at least they didn't spend two decades listening to the Rev. Jeremiah Wright.

Energy:  President Obama says Newt Gingrich "isn't telling the truth" when he claims he could cut the price of gas to $2.50 a gallon if elected. Well, the price of gas when Obama took office was $1.83 a gallon. Was that a lie?
