Climategate – it ain’t just about the weather
Pajamas Media "Climategate is about a lot more than climate. It’s about science and its relationship to politics and profit, the academy, the state and, perhaps most importantly, information control. The manner through which we learn (or thought we did) important knowledge about key aspects of our existence, the way things are hidden, has been exposed in this one instance like the Wizard of Oz."
Reversing Obama on the KSM Trial
Andrew C. McCarthy "We absolutely can get President Obama to reverse this [KSM trial]decision. We’ve done it before. This spring, outraged Americans made their voices heard when the Obama administration attempted to disclose top-secret photographs said to depict the abuse of prisoners in U.S. custody. The president backed down, reversing his attorney general’s decision not to appeal a disclosure order. On Monday, that popular national-security resolve paid big dividends when the Supreme Court ruled in favor of keeping the pictures classified. Much to the chagrin of DOJ’s pro-detainee activists and their friends at the ACLU, the photos will not see the light of day."
Obama's surrender will end in blood
Matt Patterson , AT "They say that the U.S. Military Academy at West Point was an odd venue for President Obama's Afghanistan speech. And indeed it was - after all, surrenders are usually offered to the enemy on the battlefield. For that is exactly what the President proposed Tuesday night; surrender, abject and total."
AfPak response to Obama's speech; fear
Rick Moran , AT "In Pakistan, Mr. Obama's declaration fed longstanding fears that America would abruptly withdraw, leaving Pakistan to fend for itself. Many in Islamabad, Pakistan's capital, argued that the short timetable diminished any incentive for Pakistan to cut ties to Taliban militants who were its allies in the past, and whom Pakistan might want to use to shape a friendly government in Afghanistan after the American withdrawal.
"The most serious issue, as far as we see it, is the exit date," said a senior Pakistani security official who spoke anonymously because he was not allowed to speak publicly. "It will have serious implications."
Searching in Vain for the Obama Magic
Der Spiegel "Never before has a speech by President Barack Obama felt as false as his Tuesday address announcing America's new strategy for Afghanistan. It seemed like a campaign speech combined with Bush rhetoric -- and left both dreamers and realists feeling distraught."

Boxer ("Senator" Boxer to you.): Hackers should face criminal probe over 'Climategate'
The Hill h/t to Lucianne. "Boxer, the top Democrat on the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee, said that the recently released e-mails, showing scientists allegedly overstating the case for climate change, should be treated as a crime."You call it 'Climategate'; I call it 'E-mail-theft-gate,'" she said during a committee meeting."
WHITE HOUSE HANGS ON TO THE GLOBAL WARMING HOAX "Cap-and-tax gives Obama and the Democrat yet another way to hamstring the free marketplace and to produce revenue. This is a tax scheme, nothing else." Neal Boortz
Cadets await Obama's speech
Cadet reads "Kill Bin Laden" as he waits with other cadets for U.S. President Barack Obama to deliver an address on U.S. policy and the war in Afghanistan at the U.S. Military Academy.
In defense of Barack Obama
Jerusalem Post "Misguided, perhaps. But to declare the Obama administration to be anti-Semitic is just wrong. Let's keep the debate in the area of policy. Unfortunately, there'll be no shortage of topics to discuss."
It’s Getting Lonely Around Obama
Süddeutsche Zeitung, Germany h/t to Watching America "Nowhere outside America has the percentage of people concerned about a threatening environmental collapse sunk lower than it has in the United States, where it now stands at about one in five.To try to force new environmental laws through Congress under such conditions is, to put it mildly, courageous. It may even be political suicide."
The Left's Climategate: A Scandal for Journalism, Too
Media Research Center "The media’s current silence is made worse by the decades they spent promoting the Left’s alarmist global warming agenda and excluding any doubters from the discussion, as documented by numerous MRC studies:"
