The Obamanonomy

WPost Fact-Checker shreds Obama auto recovery claims  "Actually, according to The Washington Post's Fact Checker by Glenn Kessler, Obama's claims are "one of the most misleading collections of assertions we have seen in a short presidential speech. Virtually every claim by the president regarding the auto industry needs an asterisk, just like the fine print in that too-good-to-be-true car loan.""

Those who seek to run our lives

American Thinker "Here's a simple thought experiment. Imagine you had a neighbor, a business colleague, or an acquaintance, who was always in your face telling you what car to drive, what food to eat, what healthcare you must have, what you must allow the schools to teach your children, that your teenage daughter could have an abortion at an abortion clinic without consulting you first, that you had no right to own a gun, ad infinitum. Most of us would tell him or her to stuff it, or perhaps use a little more colorful language.
"Now, take that same person and put the title Senator, Congressman, or President in front of their name and millions of Americans accept these losses of personal freedom without a whimper. Even worse, some people worship and idolize politicians."

Hear O Israel

 Nakba Day explained.

 IDF Chief of Staff Benny Gantz



Skip MacLure  "Well, if you won’t listen to me, maybe you’ll listen to him. No disrespect intended, but it seems that Israel is in for another border invasion, and this one reportedly has between 300 and 500 busloads of Lebanese and Palestinians being moved to the borders… to say nothing of large numbers of others heading in the direction of the borders, as well."....

"Now the Iranians, in the guise of the Muslim Brotherhood, are going to test the IDF to the max. The so-called ‘Nakba Day’ protests were something only an Arab could dream up. Commemorating a battle in which the collective armies of the Arab nations got the horse pucky kicked out of them by a tiny, almost insignificant, country would seem to the western mind to be a waste of time."

SEIU marches with Southern California Communists in May Day demonstration

Via Beltway Confidential  "This year’s annual May Day March in Downtown Los Angeles was considerably smaller than last year’s demonstration which, because it coincided with the passage of Arizona’s anti-illegal immigration law, SB 1070, brought out more than 60,000 people, and only a tiny fraction of the 500,000 people who attended in 2007 when congress was debating immigration reform. The organizers estimated the number of attendees this year to be 10,000 and the police put the number at about 3000. Based on other demonstrations I’ve attended, I’d put my guess at about 4000."

May Day: Victims of Communism Day  "May Day began as a holiday for socialists and labor union activists, not just communists. But over time, the date was taken over by the Soviet Union and other communist regimes and used as a propaganda tool to prop up their regimes. I suggest that we instead use it as a day to commemorate those regimes’ millions of victims. The authoritative Black Book of Communism estimates the total at 80 to 100 million dead, greater than that caused by all other twentieth century tyrannies combined. We appropriately have a Holocaust Memorial Day. It is equally appropriate to commemorate the victims of the twentieth century’s other great totalitarian tyranny. And May Day is the most fitting day to do so. I suggest that May Day be turned into Victims of Communism Day...."  The Volokh Conspiracy

When you ponder whether to vote for a Democrat or a Republican in any future election consider: the above crowd, you can be sure, are virtually all Democrat voters. Granted, many would vote Communist if it made political sense, but until it does, the Democrat Party will work for them just fine. If you support the causes glorified by the above demonstrators, then vote for anyone with a 'D' by their name.

Previously unconsidered: Democrats are right...it's not about Sex..Plus comment by Victor Davis Hanson

This is the first post one this subject in the TW and we only go here because of the important point of view it presents; one we've not heretofore seen discussed.
Plus it gives us a chance to use some of the great cartoons we've seen. The Tunnel Dweller.

American Thinker  To Anthony Weiner: "...My question is simply this: How did you know with any "certitude" that you weren't exchanging salacious emails and engaging in phone sex with agents of the Russian Federation, the Peoples' Republic of China or even the Israeli Mossad?"....
"And we all should be abundantly thankful that Andrew Breitbart's  intelligence-gathering organization is apparently more efficient than the many national security agencies who could have blackmailed this clueless clown to force him to vote their way on any number of issues.
"If they haven't already..."

More like this at michaelramirez, such as this, and this. Then there are these: here, and here, and here, and here, and here, and here, and here, and here, and, well, who's counting?

What's important about Weinergate...And what's not  "...So, from a political standpoint, this was an important story. But in the larger context of history and "news," there wasn't much there. Another congressman proving himself a lying weasel is not the basis for the kind of over the top, wall to wall coverage Weiner and his dirty pictures have received.
"All in all, he just isn't worth the attention."

Victor Davis Hanson: The Collapse of a Rotten Edifice  "...the goddess has been particularly busy in destroying the carefully crafted images of Bono, John Edwards, Timothy Geithner, Al Gore, Eliot Spitzer, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Dominique Strauss-Kahn, Anthony Weiner, and a host of others. What do their tax hypocrisies, sexual indulgences, and aristocratic socialist lifestyles all have in common?"  More...
