Political Cartoons by Michael Ramirez

Townhall

I'm not sure, but isn't this Don Knotts as Barney Fife?

Why the Mullahs Are Vulnerable

WSJ "What began as anger over a stolen election has grown into a revolt against Iran's system of Islamic government."

Carter "Apology": Reaction II

IsraelNationalNews "Carter's apology for maligning Israel in his book, Israel:The Apartheid State, letters and speeches not so easily accepted. Carter's grandson just happens to be running for office in an area with a vocal Jewish population. The writer has some ideas."

A Decade and Its Three Crises

Sammy Benoit in AT "...a Pharaoh who "knew not Joseph" arose, he sent Joseph's people into slavery for the next 210 years. Will the result of Emanuel's not wasting a crisis include the rise of a president who knows not the Constitution? Will the people of Emanuel's adopted land become the slaves of their government? Such a future can be fought only by an American people who understand what's happening and possess the will to fight it off. Hopefully the next decade will be called the Decade of Government by the People."

Uh-Oh… US Knew of Al-Qaeda Terror Plot Involving Nigerian Before Christmas

Gateway Pundit "The U.S. government had intelligence from Yemen before Christmas that leaders of a branch of Al Qaeda there were talking about “a Nigerian” being prepared for a terrorist attack, the New York Times reported Tuesday."

Our Year of Obama

Victor Davis Hanson "The final irony is that should Obama and his revolutionaries prevail in their remaking of America, their own progeny will not enjoy the opportunity and affluence that they so cavalierly take to be their birthright, which was bequeathed to them by less liberal others."

Kerry requests Iran let him visit

Jennifer Rubin "“Sen. John Kerry has filed a formal request to visit Iran, Iranian news agencies reported Tuesday — news made public in the middle of the government’s bloody crackdown on dissidents that has left more than a dozen dead.” It would be frightful if the Obami foreign policy toward Iran were this incoherent."

Why Obama pretends

PowerlineBlog Quoting Dick Cheney: "It doesn't fit with what seems to be the goal of his presidency - social transformation--the restructuring of American society. President Obama's first object and his highest responsibility must be to defend us against an enemy that knows we are at war."

Christian Bashing: A Special Christmas Gift From ‘NCIS’

Big Hollywood Spoiler alert: "It turns out the Marine was murdered by his own brother in what I can only describe as an “Honor Killing.” The ‘Christian’ family was so embarrassed by the son’s conversion to Islam that the brother thought the only recourse he had was to kill him. Out of all the cultures in the globe where honor killing is a very serious problem, how many have appened in America within a Christian family? Oh yeah—NONE. Is there a verse in the Bible one can point to where the Christian is instructed to kill the offending family member should he or she decide to convert to another religion? I think not. NCIS, what were you thinking? "

Model for air travel security may be El Al

CNN "El Al receives threats daily, yet it has not had a terrorist incident in more than 30 years, according to David Hermesh, El Al's president.".... "El Al attributes its record of safe travel to its tough security measures. "If you're a passenger on El Al, most likely you will be observed from the minute that you left your car or you have been dropped off ..."

Tea Parties: The Biggest Mistake We Could Make in 2010

Big Government "So, I see trouble brewing ahead for the Tea Party movement one that might lead to its being wasted and the frittering away of these potentially powerful passions will be the biggest mistake the right could make. Sadly, I can almost see no way to prevent it from happening. So, Happy New Year, sure, but let’s keep all this in mind and find a way to weld the Tea Party passion into action." But please! No third party- at least for conservatives.

Obama’s Shameful Handling of National Security Issues

Pam Meister , PJM "When he did finally make a public statement, it was pretty much boilerplate: ordering a review of security procedures and a promise to get the bad guys. All with the trademark “cool” that made him so different than his predecessor. Sorry, but “cool” isn’t what we need right now. We need someone who’s willing to fight."...."Does Obama have what it takes to stop them? I hate to say no, but that’s what it looks like from my little corner of the world. And it’s damn scary."
