Obama: Slurs Against Conservative Woman Are Fine But Not So With Liberal Women

Independent Sentinel  "What does Obama think about Letterman’s foul and insulting language towards conservatives, specifically conservative women?

We know he was repulsed by Rush Limbaugh’s language towards Sandra Fluke, the poser and activist. He even called Fluke to offer his help – poor dear.  But he has not said a word about the vile rants by Letterman and Maher.
We now have our answer. His SuperPac took and is keeping a million dollars from Bill Maher. Michelle Obama is going on Letterman’s show."...

Team Obama’s Negative Ads Against Palin (No, this is not a 2008 article)  "The Obama campaign wishes so badly it could run against a divisive national figure like Sarah Palin that it’s decided to just pretend it actually is. Here’s Obama’s latest ad, which attacks Palin for calling him a radical (via HotAir):"

SLUT-GATE HYPOCRISY: FIRST LADY TO APPEAR ON LETTERMAN  "The same White House demanding that Rush Limbaugh be taken off the air is apparently okay with the First Lady of the United States appearing with the same David Letterman who "joked" about Sarah Palin's 14 year-old daughter getting "knocked up" by Alex Rodriguez and compared the Governor herself to a "slutty flight attendant.""

Iran and Obama

Thomas Sowell  "If you were an Israeli, how willing would you be to risk your national survival on Obama's promise to stand by your country? If you were a leader of Iran, what would you make of what Obama said, except that an election year might not be the best time to attack Israel?"

"At the end of the Second World War, Winston Churchill said, "There never was in all history a war easier to prevent by timely action than the one which has just desolated such great areas of the globe." It might even have been prevented "without the firing of a single shot," Churchill said.
"Early in Hitler's career as dictator of Germany, the Western powers -- indeed, France alone -- had such overwhelming military superiority that an ultimatum to Hitler to stop rearming would have left him little choice but to comply. But the price of stopping him went up as time went by and he kept on rearming.
"When Hitler sent troops into the Rhineland in 1936, in defiance of two international treaties, he knew that Germany at that point had nothing that would stop the French army if it moved in. But France was too cautious to act -- and caution can be carried to the point where it becomes dangerous, as France discovered when a stronger Germany conquered it in 1940."
Obama asks Bibi not to attack Iran until after election  "Meanwhile, the gap between the US and Israel grows over the definitions of the Iranian threat. Obama won't allow Iran to possess a bomb. Israel won't allow Iran to have the capability to build one. The differences between the two sides are that if Israel agrees to the American formulation, it will be too late to stop Iran from actually constructing a bomb.
"That is unacceptable to Netanyahu, while Israel's red line is unacceptable to Washington. There appears to be little Obama can do to deter the Israelis from attacking while Israel can do nothing to satisfy Washington.
"The standoff will continue as long as Obama is president"

The Jerusalem Post: Charles Krauthammer; Obama vs. Israel: Priority No. 1? Stop Israel  "the Obama administration has acquiesced to yet another round of talks with the Iranian mullahs."

Hat tip to SHAWARMA MAYOR
The Legality of Attacking Iran  "The main point is that no one serious still thinks it was wrong for Israel to destroy the Osirak reactor. But for the destruction of that reactor, Saddam Hussein would be sitting on top of a nuclear weapon right now, having annexed Kuwait, and Saudi Arabia would have had little choice but to become either a satellite of Baghdad, a permanent U.S. occupation zone, maybe with a nuclear weapon of its own. That’s why Israel’s similar attack on a Syrian facility in 2007 hardly drew a whimper of protest from the international community."

More on the Fluke Flack

How many times have I heard Rush quote Saul Alinsky's Rules for Radicals: "Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it."
"Limbaugh is likely to make this controversy work for him. For years, he's been tweaking the media and using its pushback to generate interesting/funny/pithy material. This pushback may be a lot more than he wanted from that particular tweak, but if he's the master of radio that he purports to be, he'll get it working for him."


Obama Fares Worse Among Women after Month-Long Contraception Mandate Battle  "Then, from March 7 to 10--a week into the national media firestorm surrounding Rush Limbaugh's degrading remarks about Georgetown Law student and liberal activist Sandra Fluke--Washington Post/ABC conducted another poll. It found Obama's approval rating at 46 percent, down four points from February, and his disapproval rating at 50 percent, up four points from February."


From Noisy Room.  Hey, I like this guy:

American Thinker: Gloria Allred Inserts Self into Fluke Controversy  "One must, at some point, question whether leftists like Allred -- who have lived so long in the plastic bubble of chic leftism, without accountability to anyone or to anything -- can grasp even the tiniest slivers of decency and integrity.  Forget that this zealous quasi-advocate for (radical leftist) women has never demanded that David Letterman in calling for the statutory rape of Sarah Palin's daughter -- and Letterman, unlike Rush, never apologized for his remarks -- or Ed Shultz in calling Laura Ingraham a "slut" should be investigation by prosecutors.  The savaging of brave conservative women, or just girls who happen to be children of those women, does not seem to trouble Allred at all."


Charles Krauthammer Schools Nina Totenberg on Romney Not Denouncing Limbaugh
"NPR's Nina Totenberg got a much-needed education Friday on the hypocrisy of the media's treatment of conservative talk radio host Rush Limbaugh's comments about Georgetown University law student and women's rights activist Sandra Fluke."

Video: Congressman Joe Walsh Unleashed: Obama is Destroying What Makes This Country Great!

Nice Deb  "“The America that our founders started that we lived under for over 100 years – where it was your life,  it was your money,  it was your freedom – government’s up there, somewhere, and every once in a while we have to deal with it –that America is long gone.”

"He says the fight is with the Nancy Pelosi Democrats:
“They truly want everyone in this country to be dependent on government. They truly want government to run everyone’s health care . They truly don’t believe in the first words of the First Amendment that give you a right to practice your faith.”
"He also had some things to say about the Republican primary candidates. If they don’t get us fired up, TOUGH, he said.
"Walsh said said he would run through a wall to get whoever the nominee is elected; “I know every day that this gentleman is in the White House – Folks! He is destroying what makes this country great. Don’t demand perfection from our nominee – say PRAYERS for him.” "

"I agree with all of that except his sympathy for the people who didn’t vote in 2008 because they were dissatisfied with McCain. We DID know enough about Obama in 2008 to have been just as motivated to get to the polls as we are this time around. Republicans who sat on their hands, or worse – voted for Obama – have a lot to answer for."
