My Interview With Karl Rove

16, Mar 2010

I had the opportunity to speak with Karl Rove yesterday about his new book, “Courage and Consequence.” The former White House deputy chief of staff had a lot to say about Obamacare, his defense of President George W. Bush, and the conservative leaders he admires.
Listen to the full 30-minute interview.
Rove was particular appalled at the [...]

The New and Improved Heritage.org

15, Mar 2010

No project has consumed more of my time at The Heritage Foundation than the redesign of Heritage.org. What started in fall 2008 and progressed through all of 2009 and the beginning of 2010 finally arrived today with a big splash.

Negotiating for Results

24, Dec 2009

One of the great things about working at The Heritage Foundation is the training courses for employees. Seminars that you might typically find as part of an MBA program are regularly offered to staff. As a relatively young manager, I’ve made it a point to take advantage as much as possible.

For the past few months I’ve been quietly working with John Solomon, executive editor of The Washington Times, on the launch of a new website that brings together blogging and social media to advance the meritocracy of ideas for conservatives.
Appropriately, it’s called TheConservatives.com. The site launched in September and features contributors such as my boss, [...]

Video: How the Right Can Win Online

18, Aug 2009

I had the opportunity over the weekend to attend the second annual RightOnline conference in Pittsburgh. Last year’s event in Austin, Tex., was such a big hit that the Americans for Prosperity Foundation decided to follow Netroots Nation to the Steel City.
This year’s conference was just as fun — and provided a refreshing change from [...]

Charles Krauthammer is my favorite Washington Post columnist, and yesterday’s column on President Barack Obama’s overseas trip is an excellent piece worthy of your attention.
Krauthammer articulates why the United Nations is useless after it failed to produce any response to North Korea’s missile test. It [...]

Young Conservatives Are Alive and Well

I was hoping to write this blog post on my way back from Minneapolis tomorrow, reporting on the three Young President’s Club events I attended on behalf of The Heritage Foundation the past three weeks. Unfortunately, I’m writing it in the Milwaukee airport, where I’ve been for [...]
