Liberals never learn

Lloyd Brown, AT "qWhen you are on an ideological jihad to reshape a nation, facts nor logic, nor past experience, can be allowed to intrude."

US Org. Hosts Cancer Meet, Israelis not Welcome

Israel National News "Israeli doctors were invited to the event as well, and several had planned to attend. However, on Sunday night, the doctors received brief notices telling them that they were no longer invited to the conference, by order of Egyptian Health Minister Hatem el-Gabali."

Cheney: Obama's Afghan War Strategy 'Bears Striking Resemblance' to Bush's

Fox News " "It's time for President Obama to make good on his promise," he said. "The White House must stop dithering while America's armed forces are in danger." "Make no mistake, signals of indecision out of Washington hurt our allies and embolden our adversaries," he added. "Waffling, while our troops on the ground face an emboldened enemy, endangers them and hurts our cause.""

Nine Months Into Obama's Presidency, Hillary Clinton Still Citing ‘Inherited’ Problems

CNS News "From the time he entered the White House, President Obama frequently has spoken about having “inherited” an economic mess, and he has been criticized for it. But the expression arguably has been used even more often by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. Nine months later, it is a theme she returns to regularly at home and abroad."

Krauthammer Rips 'Repulsive Audacity' of White House for Fox News Attacks

Newsbusters "Look, it's one thing for the government, the administration to attack opponents, institutions, media," Krauthammer said. "It is another to go out to try and delegitimize them and destroy them."

Voting Present Is Not an Option

Victor Davis Hanson , NRO "...Given the above, and given that George Bush made a far more difficult choice that saved Iraq, it is hard to figure out why Obama can not make a simple decision to send troops requested by commanders on the ground."

MoveOn demands that Democrats stay off Fox News

Michelle Malkin "A reader just sent this fresh missive from the Fox News Deranged-foot soldiers at MoveOn:"... "The petition says: “Democrats should support President Obama’s effort to call out FOX. Please stay off FOX for as long as he does. Democrats often appear on FOX in hopes of reaching out to conservative viewers. But FOX cuts off their mic, distorts what they say, or runs biased headlines at the bottom of the screen.4 In the end, Democrats always lose on FOX."

ANOTHER MAO ADMIRER IN THE WHITE HOUSE

Boortz "Let's do a little recap here: 1. Obama writes of his gravitation toward Communist student groups and Marxist professors in college. 2. Obama appoints an avowed Communist to be his green jobs czar. 3. Obama's communications director sings the praises of Mao 4. Now we have Obama's manufacturing Czar citing Mao and calling the free market "nonsense"."

"The Problem of Evil": interview with Michael Ledeen

NRO "...Is there still an Axis of Evil?" "MICHAEL LEDEEN: Yes, and it’s growing. It lost Iraq, but now counts Iran, North Korea, Venezuela, Bolivia, and Russia." LOPEZ: Are we an “Accomplice to Evil”?" "LEDEEN: That’s the whole point of my book. We have once again failed to see evil — Iran is the prime example — when it was right in front of us, and we have deliberately blinded ourselves to the war that the Islamic Republic has been waging against us for 30 years."

Terrorism? What Terrorism? About babbling academics.

Pajamas Media “...the academic advising or exhorting action will most likely appear a learned fool, babbling of he knows not what.” What academics don’t “babble” about is equally troubling. Scarcely a word can be found in their voluminous tracts concerning the bellicose initiatives of the expanding terror cartel involving Iran, Venezuela, Russia, and North Korea, with America in the cross hairs."

Attack on Fox News right out of the Alinsky playbook

SenseOf Events "The other media may expect to be flattered as "real" reporters and news organizations who are actually the ones being "fair and balanced." The more a White House reporters and editors toe the White House line, the greater access they will be granted, especially to power figures such as Rahm Emmanuel, David Axelrod and, ultimately, Barack Obama himself, whom we may expect to give a one-on-one interview with the biggest suckup reporter gaining Dunn's favor. Reporters who don't fall into place will discover they are being frozen out of access and will have to rely exclusively on press briefer Robert Gibbs, which is the kiss of death to a White House reporter." h/t to Instapundit.
