Video: Giuliani goes nuclear on Obama over KSM’s trial

Hot Air    "Obama and Holder surely realize that the defense is going to try to put Bush on trial by focusing on waterboarding, torture, etc. Is that a feature for them rather than a bug? Nothing would make the left happier than to see Dubya himself in the dock; this is the next best thing, and provides some political cover in case the verdict turns out the wrong way. It’s all Bush’s fault!"

Barack in Beijing / How the Chinese regime hopes to make use of him.

by Gordon G. Chang    "Obama's failure to consolidate relations with Japan and India, the countries China fears most, is a critical mistake. As a result, he has little to bargain with. Beijing's foreign policy is, above all, ruthlessly pragmatic. The Chinese generally do not reciprocate friendly gestures; they interpret them as weakness."...."China...has recently increased its support for nuclear rogues Iran and North Korea, used aggressive tactics at sea to push the U.S. Navy from Asian waters, stepped up its efforts to remove America from Central Asia, and formed a loose coalition of developing nations to undermine the dollar. Unlike Jiang, Hu is ideologically anti-American."

Obama Tries To Stop Sheriff Joe Arpaio

Sweetness&Light   "The Obama administration is curbing the powers of an Arizona sheriff who has led one of the most contentious fights against illegal immigrants.  Under an agreement involving local enforcement of federal immigration law, Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s deputies will no longer have the authority to arrest suspected illegal immigrants in the streets in the course of their duty." ...."This action comes just a couple weeks after the Congressional Hispanic Caucus called on Mr. Obama to terminate the 287(g) program (a pdf file), and two months after La Raza, the ACLU and 521 other pro-amnesty organizations demanded that the program be stopped."

What's Wrong With Socialism?

By Joe Herring  in AT   "Our job, then, is to teach the lessons of history to those who fail to see the danger. We have to provide that all-important perspective to a generation that has been denied it. We have to do this one at a time, conversation by conversation. Tell your friends the truth; don't assume they know it. Become the person your friends and family consult when the subject turns to politics."

Who Are ‘They’?

By Victor Davis Hanson  "Racism, cited during the last weeks of the campaign as the only reason why an otherwise shoo-in Obama might lose, now often explains Obama’s falling popularity. Indeed, to the degree that Barack Obama gets what he wishes, the country is deemed to be on racial probation; to the degree he does not, it is considered recidivist and back to Jim Crow days."

Muslims must quit British Forces, says Iranian envoy Abdolhossein Moezi

UK Times "The Iranian Supreme Leader’s representative in Britain has told Muslim servicemen and women to quit the Armed Forces, saying that their involvement in the Afghanistan and Iraq wars is forbidden by Islam."

Want freedom of Speech in the Army? Then Convert to Islam

Blackfive  "Glenn's link takes us to the Mudville Gazette  which shows why an American soldier cannot voice an opinion. At least according to the Army... It's a MUST READ!
PS: CJ was part of the 3rd ID run to Baghdad. Dog Face Soldiers, mount up!"

Explaining Away Mass Murder

By Charles Krauthammer  "The delicacy about the religion in question -- condescending, politically correct and deadly -- is nothing new. A week after the first (1993) World Trade Center attack, the same New York Times ran the following front-page headline about the arrest of one Mohammed Salameh: "Jersey City Man Is Charged in Bombing of Trade Center.""

Obama Reduces September 11th Act of War on America to a Law Enforcement Issue

Atlas Shrugs  "Imagine, the enemy is facing a civilian trial in NYC. Devastating. How much intel will be compromised when these jihad barbarians are all lawyered up?"

September 10? It’s Worse Than That

By Andy McCarthy "The post-9/11 era was supposed to be about knocking down walls that obstructed effective counterterrorism. But behold the new wall, more insidious than its suicidal Nineties forerunner: the arbitrary barrier separating terrorism from “protected” incitement — the cagey, generalized, non-specific jihadist rhetoric that is the Islamist cleric’s stock-in-trade."

Obama To Give 12M Amnesty By 2010

Sweetness&Light  "Among other things, will this not boost the number of people eligible for government subsidized health care? Has this been factored into the CBO’s cost estimates? (Of course not.)"
