Random Thoughts

By Thomas Sowell "Fidel Castro, Hugo Chavez, Muammar Qaddafi and Vladimir Putin have all praised Barack Obama. When enemies of freedom and democracy praise your president, what are you to think? When you add to this Barack Obama's many previous years of associations and alliances with people who hate America-- Jeremiah Wright, Bill Ayers, Father Pfleger, etc.-- at what point do you stop denying the obvious and start to connect the dots?"

Congress’ Secret Plan to Pass Obamacare - CONFIRMED

Heritage# "This story confirms the four part scenario that would railroad the bill through the Senate using a very unusual closed door procedure to craft the bill with no input from the American people. The four stage plan to pass Obamacare has been publicly confirmed and is ready to be implemented. The following is a comprehensive update:"

Thoughts on the Hysteria About Afghanistan

By Victor Davis Hanson=# "By past American military standards, the mission in Afghanistan is singularly difficult and ambitious, but the way we have fought it has been unusually economical in lives lost."

Is Bill Ayers Now Playing Conservatives? Why He Should Not be Taken Seriously

By Ron Radosh# "Clearly, perhaps Ayers hopes that someone like Glenn Beck or Sean Hannity will use this story as proof that Ayers wrote Obama’s memoir. Then he will hold a press conference saying how he was putting them on and they fell for it, and make them look like really stupid fools. Or, he could on the other hand really mean it—and is hoping that someone will ask him to produce his drafts and other proof of his work, and then he will again not only be in the limelight, but will help bring down a presidency in which he is disappointed that it has not been radical enough."

The Magnificent Ditherer: Obama on Afghanistan

Rick Moran "If ever a situation cried out for crisp, decisive leadership by a commander in chief, this is it. We are not getting that. We are not getting anything close. We are between a rock and a hard place in Afghanistan, the commanding general has asked for help, the country is unsure, the Congress is split, his own advisors are wavering - and the president of the United States wants to split the difference to make everyone happy?"

Obama's hogging of credit has plumbed a new low

By Ed Lasky "Barack Obama's ugly habit of claiming credit for the work of others has reached a new level of absurdity. His flacks at the White House are crediting him with the apprehension of terror suspect Najibullah Zazi. IBD is on the case:..."

Time Magazine admits Book Ghostwritten

American Thinker# "Time Magazine has blown the lid on a secret ghost writer for one of the most well known political figures of our day and that person is... Sarah Palin. That's right! Not President Obama but Sarah Palin whose book titled Going Rogue: An American Life is set for release soon."...."Compare this Time magazine story, and its abysmal lack of evidence, with the dearth of evidence provided by previous American Thinker articles authored by Jack Cashill and James Simpson."

Would Your Company Like to Sponsor the Next Installment of Liberal Lies on National Health Care? See My Web Site for Details! Part 7

By Ann Coulter "To get to the comparison they like (America is not as good as Sweden!), liberals have to slip in the orange of "life expectancy," and hope no one will mention monster truck races, Krispy Kremes and Virginia Slims. As the old saying goes: Life doesn't last longer in socialist countries; it just feels like it."

Obama Administration Defiantly Defends Another Radical Appointee

by David Limbaugh # "I continue to be amazed at the naiveté of people who keep giving President Barack Obama the benefit of the doubt concerning his radical appointments, saying his administration isn't doing its job in vetting the appointees. When will they wake up to the reality that Obama is deliberately picking people, such as Kevin Jennings, who share his radical values?" h/t to Neal Boortz.
