Obama's class warfare rhetoric costing jobs

American Thinker "It's easy for the politician to get the sound bite. What they are doing with those sound bites is putting maids and bellmen out of work." "

Our Top Anti-Terrorism Advisor Must Go

Victor Davis Hanson "But isn't Brennan the same official who used to give loud political speeches, heralding not only the superior new Obama anti-terrorism methodology but also the failings of the Bush approach (which kept us safe for seven consecutive years)?"

UC Irvine’s Free Speech Problem

Roger L Simon "They should rectify this situation immediately and in a serious way, because this is a serious case of racism. The reputation of the whole University of California system is at risk here in an era when taxpayers are in a justifiably rebellious mood. Given what’s happened, outside the sciences, it’s hard to regard Irvine as a legitimate educational institution. Why would any of us pay for what is happening there?"

With absolute power, Team Obama grows stupid

Michael Barone "Team Obama failed to realize they were no longer running in Chicago or in the Democratic primaries or facing an electorate fed up with Republicans. And, more important, they failed to realize that vastly expanding government goes deeply against the American grain -- and against the basic appeal of their successful campaign."

Victory — How Quaint an Idea!

Victor Davis Hanson , NRO "Defeating Islamic terrorism is not only definable and possible, but closer than ever before."

Climategate: MoveOn’s Triple Whopper

Pajamas Media "Moveon’s ad campaign is a falsehood from top to bottom. Moveon.org should promptly do three things: (1) Apologize to Sens. Landrieu, Lincoln, and Nelson for subjecting them to a smear campaign. (2) Apologize to its members for feeding them falsehoods instead of providing truthful information. (3) Return every penny to anyone whom the ads frightened or angered into contributing money to Moveon.Org."

Paul Ryan vs. Obama

Commentary "Well, he couldn’t even manage his own ObamaCare plan, so I suppose he isn’t into the details so much. Rather he’s in the bait-and-switch business — running as a moderate and governing as a liberal, urging bipartisanship and snapping at the opposition, and calling for fiscal sobriety but propounding an embarrassing budget. He is the un-Ryan — that is, unserious and uninteresting." Jennifer Rubin. And this: Ryan Gets Serious "Ryan has put a credible plan on the table. It isn’t perfect, but no plan for controlling the cost growth at the heart of the entitlement problem is going to be uncontroversial."

CBS: Obama’s bipartisanship call is really demand for GOP surrender

Hot Air "When a sitting president calls for bipartisanship by the opposition – he really means surrender. And if they block his proposals, its “obstinacy” and not political views they hold as strongly as he holds his." Mark Knoller, CBS.

Fox Uncovers Anti-Tea-Party Slush-Fund Scam

Jennifer Rubin "Fox News persists on covering news others don’t. It seems the “not really a news outlet” has uncovered a major scam by the Vast Leftwing Conspiracy:"

Scientists say IPCC should be overhauled or scrapped

The Australian "International scientists have called for the world's peak climate change body to be revamped or scrapped after damaging controversies that have dogged the expert panel in recent months."
