Al-Qaeda target British soldiers returning from Afghanistan
UK Telegraph "British-based Islamist radicals are targeting Army soldiers - especially snipers - returning from fighting in southern Afghanistan, The Sunday Telegraph has learnt."
Learning from Abdul Mutallab
Victor Davis Hanson 1) If solidly middle-class Westernized Muslims mouth the al-Qaeda line of radical Islamic, anti-American boilerplate, please take them seriously — i.e., worry less about their feelings and more about the lives of innocents they may in the future seek to annihilate. The more upscale and the more the Western exposure, the more there is to worry about. 2)..."
The Jihad Decade Cometh
Pamela Geller in AT "And so the drip, drip, drip of jihad continued through the last decade. We became more paralyzed, impotent, and deceived. Meanwhile, the Leftist/Islamic alliance, a deadly marriage between the Democratic Party and their propaganda handmaidens in the mainstream media, engaged in daily beatings of Bush and his administration.".... "But the Left, our in-house enemy, demonizes any war that America chooses to fight. The egregious, horrible crimes of Mao, Stalin, bin Laden, Che, Lenin, Pol Pot, Ahmadinejad, et al, which are so heinous and so enormous, are in their terrible minds a historical footnote. They become cultural icons for the "radical chic." Cold-blooded monsters have co-opted our country."
Parliamentary Victory in Afghanistan
Max Boot "That Parliament has now displayed its independence by rejecting 17 of 24 cabinet ministers nominated by the president. Those who were ratified were the most competent ministers with the longest record of service; those who were rejected tended to be warlords and political hacks. With this vote, the Parliament displays good judgment and reminds us that Afghanistan is not ruled solely by one flawed man. There is a functioning democracy in place, however imperfect."
US offering EunuchBomber a deal?
Hot Air "The video has some interesting moments, including Brennan’s insistence that we have to close Gitmo because AQ uses it for propaganda purposes. Contrast that with Eric Holder’s earlier statement that he wouldn’t let terrorists dictate whether we try them in the military or civil system. Isn’t caving to AQ’s propaganda merely to exchange a explicitly-designed terrorist detention center for a makeshift one in Illinois the same thing?" Also under: Pantie bomber, Fruit-of-the-Loom bomber, boxer bomber and "jock & awe".
Claire McCaskill 2009: It’s Unfair to Take Potshots at President… Claire McCaskill 2006: Bush Killed Black People on Rooftops
Gateway Pundit "Back in September 2006 Claire McCaskill told a group of local elected officials, which included white and black Democrats, that she would remind people over the course of her campaign against Republican Sen. Jim Talent that: “George Bush let people die on rooftops in New Orleans because they were poor and because they were black.”"
The anti-capitalist mentality.
Heather MacDonald WSJ "It is the ingratitude that kills me the most among anti-business types. The materials that furnish a single room in an American home required daring, perseverance, and organizational skill from millions of individuals over generations. I hope they all got filthy rich."
On the Horizon
Victor Davis Hanson "But surely anyone who collated Obama’s self-described ... (“Yep. Every week. 11 o’clock service.” Ever been there? Good service.”)dutiful attendance at Rev. Wright’s racist pulpit...anyone who did all that, would conclude that, yes, an apparently strong influence in Obama’s worldview is the assumption that oppression is predicated on race. (If I had gone to one religious service in which my pastor evoked the sins of black people in collective fashion, then I would have left in shame of my attendance.)"

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
BookwormRoom "...the current Progressive City government tightly controls law abiding citizens and businesses, while allowing special interest groups to function without limitations. The result is a dangerous blend of totalitarian anarchy."
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 a media who tells us that to be Christian or God loving is immature or silly.8. We’re tired of a media that tells us that our military are murderers and that we are causing terrorists to murder.9. We’re tired of being told that we are the evil ones when we don’t accept the lies of the media or government.10. 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..."
