House Resolution Calls for Removal of 'Safe School Czar'
CitizenLink "Rep. Michael Burgess, R-Texas, has introduced a resolution calling for the dismissal of "safe schools czar" Kevin Jennings. The Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network, a gay activist group founded by Jennings, has been scrutinized for pushing controversial reading lists and curriculums in public schools. Family advocates are worried Jennings will use his new post to introduce a homosexual agenda in public schools. Rep. Steve King said that's almost guaranteed."
San Francisco as it once was

They Have Awoken a Sleeping Giant America
Gateway Pundit "...6. We’re tired of being lied to by a media that only tells half a story – A media that produces untrue pictures in favor of those they love and in opposition to those they hate.7.

We’re tired of being told constantly why we should hate our great country, the most giving country ever in world history.11. We’re tired of being told that we are the ones who started wars and killed people without reason..."

Politico via BigGovernment
"And yet the White House’s response to last week’s attempt to blow up a Northwest Airlines flight to Detroit could rank as one of the low points of the new president’s first year.

Danish Cartoonist Westeragaard's Muslim Assassin Involved in Islamic Plot to Kill Hillary Clinton

Why the Health-Care Bills Are Unconstitutional
By ORRIN G. HATCH, J. KENNETH BLACKWELL AND KENNETH A. KLUKOWSKI in WSJ "...the Supreme Court in United States v. Lopez (1995) rejected a version of the commerce power so expansive that it would leave virtually no activities by individuals that Congress could not regulate. By requiring Americans to use their own money to purchase a particular good or service, Congress would be doing exactly what the court said it could not do."

However, thanks to opponents that took the wrong lessons from the Bush years, Republicans could be given another chance in 2012."
Don’t Worry, Honey, It’s Just Another “Isolated Extremist”
Claudia Rosett , Pajamas Media "...despite U.S. efforts to bring “an end” to “Overseas Contingency Operations,” there is still a risk that an “isolated extremist” might “allegedly” attempt to bring about a “man-caused disaster.” (In which case, the “suspect,” if caught, will be treated as a common criminal, read his Miranda rights, provided with the best available medical care if needed, and offered a stage in a U.S. court)."
