Our narrow escape in 2004

American Thinker "Think about it America. The Democrat Party offered you a presidential ticket in which a totally phony war hero sleazebag like John Kerry, who, should he have died in office, would then be succeeded by this noble fellow who was, just a couple of years later, out screwing a young camp follower into illegitimate motherhood while his wife was dealing with possibly terminal cancer."

James O'Keefe explains himself

Ethel C. Fenig, AT "The public will judge whether reporters who can't get their facts straight have the credibility to question my integrity as a journalist."

Osama parrots the left ( Notice that's OSama; not OBama)

American Thinker "Bin Laden's wisdom is too important to withhold from the world. Just think how much good could be achieved if we were able to tap his knowledge regarding global warming, world hunger, etc. Are we not hurting ourselves by forcing this intelligence to remain in hiding? How long will it be before some fool proposes that this mass murderer has too much to offer to not be pardoned?"

SEIU behind anti-tea party website

Rick Moran "We received numerous complaints yesterday from AT readers who were concerned about a Google Ad that bashed the tea party movement. It turns out, that the website the ad was linked to was created with funds contributed at least partly by the Service Employees International Union (SEIU)."

"We do not know whether Hitler is going to found a new Islam. ....The emotion in Germany is Islamic; warlike and Islamic"

Atlas Shrugs "While in Baghdad, Syria al-Husseini aided the pro-Nazi revolt of 1941. He then spent the rest of World War II as Hitler's special guest in Berlin, advocating the extermination of Jews in radio broadcasts back to the Middle East and recruiting Balkan Muslims for infamous SS "mountain divisions" that tried to wipe out Jewish communities throughout the region." History shows the Nazis disbanded the Muslim SS units; they were massacring Christian populations as well.

Osama bin Laden, Climate Expert by Alan Caruba

Warning Signs "The silence of Al Gore as the planet has cooled since 1998 suggests that even he knows that his self-enrichment plan is coming to an end. Only President Obama seems or pretends to be oblivious to the idiocy of cutting “greenhouse gas emissions” in the name of a planet that is not warming.In this quest, Obama has now been joined by Osama."

Climategate: NOAA and NASA Complicit in Data Manipulation

PajamasMedia "Recent revelations from the Climategate emails, originating from the Climatic Research Unit at the University of East Anglia, showed how all the data centers — most notably NOAA and NASA — conspired in the manipulation of global temperature records to suggest that temperatures in the 20th century rose faster than they actually did." Emphasis added.

Another About-Face?

Jennifer Rubin "In a remarkable and entirely welcome reversal, the Eric Holder Justice Department has retreated in its effort to pursue ethics charges against Bush administration lawyers who authored memos on enhanced interrogation." Oh, by the way: Bay what? Guantanamo eyed for 9/11 trial "The trial of 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheik Mohammed won't be held in lower Manhattan and could take place in a military tribunal at Guantanamo Bay, sources said last night." Related, wouldn't you say?: Why Shouldn’t Holder Be Fired?

What a Great Idea ( And gutsy of Obama)

Commentary "At a moment when the country is as polarized as ever, Mr. Obama traveled to a House Republican retreat on Friday to try to break through the partisan logjam that has helped stall his legislative agenda. What ensued was a lively, robust debate between a president and the opposition party that rarely happens in the scripted world of American politics." Idealogue; I*de"a*logue\, n. [Idea + -logue, as in theologue: cf. F. id['e]ologue.] One given to fanciful ideas or theories; a theorist; a spectator. [R.] --Mrs. Browning. Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary, Stephen Hayes: “The President’s Claim That He Is Not an Ideologue Was One of His Single Most Ridiculous Statements” "Barack Obama saying he’s not an ideologue is like Barack Obama saying the global warming science is settled."

This Explains A Lot

PowerlineBlog "R]ight now, the market seems to be saying: "It's the policies, stupid." Specifically, the socialistic policies that the Obama administration keeps pushing at Americans who know that's not the way this great country was built. It isn't just the efforts to socialize medicine or nationalize the car industry or control banks or punish both consumers and industry for climate variations that have little to do with it either. It's every initiative that comes out of this White House."

Hatch warns of possible partisan 'war' over health reform

Salt Lake Tribune "Hatch said Thursday that using reconciliation would be "one of the worst grabs for power in the history of the country" that would permanently impact relations between the two parties. "It is going to be outright war and it should be, because it would be such an abuse of the reconciliation rules," Hatch said. "If they abuse those rules it is going to lead to even more heated animosities between not just the two parties, but even between individual senators." "

UW-Milwaukee Professor Predicts 50 Years of Global Cooling

MacIver Institute " “Now we’re getting a break,” Anastasios Tsonis, Distinguished Professor of Mathematics at UWM, said in an interview with the MacIver Institute. Tsonis published a paper last March that found the world goes through periods of warming and cooling that tend to last thirty years. He says we are now in a period of cooling that could last up to fifty years."
