'Small' Riot in Arizona over Illegal Immigration Bill (VIDEO)
Human Events "New aerial footage has surfaced of the violence that broke out at the Arizona state capitol building after a new illegal immigration bill was signed into law on Friday. In stark contrast to peaceful Tea Party rallies, the pro-illegal immigration protesters took to the streets pelting police with rocks and water bottles as a means to voice their discontent. The new footage shows the riot was not quite as “small” as media reports initially indicated. " Connie Hair IMMIGRATION HEATS UP "We can't walk to school any more. We can't be in the streets anymore without the pigs thinking we're illegal immigrants." Well isn't that wonderful. An Hispanic kid calling the cops "pigs." "
Danish Cartoonist Who Drew Muhammad Fired for "Security Reasons"

“We Are All Israelis”
Michael Ledeen "To demonstrate their conviction that Israel is the problem, these people treat Israel’s enemies — who are also OUR enemies — with greater respect than they showed Israelis. Prime Minister Netanyahu is treated as an unwelcome guest at the White House while radical Islamists are constantly asked, very politely, to be reasonable and to become our friends. Sometimes they even receive a bow."
Obamacare’s Danger Signs
National Review "Not one of its major programs has gotten started, and already the wheels are starting to come off of Obamacare. The administration’s own actuary reported on Thursday that millions of people could lose their health insurance, that health-care costs will rise faster than they would have if the law hadn’t passed, and that the overhaul will mean that people will have a harder and harder time finding physicians to see them."
Justice Stevens on Distinguishing Protest from Incitement
American Thinker "Many liberals are making loaded, unsubstantiated claims that talk radio, the internet, peaceful Tea Party protests, and other conservative speech and associations run the risk of inciting violence. Indeed, in the past it was liberals who not merely came to the defense of such forms of protest, but who articulated the actual danger of suppressing such protest."
Obama Is Enabling Nuclear Breakout
American Thinker "The United States has plainly failed to stop North Korean and Iranian nukes. Saudi Arabia just announced plans to build a nuclear plant. North Korea just blew up a South Korean warship. All the little mad tyrannies around the world see nuclear weapons as their key to survival and power forever. Nuclear breakout can't be far away." James Lewis

More American Expatriates Give Up Citizenship
NY Times "Relinquishing citizenship is relatively simple. The person must appear before a U.S. consular or diplomatic official in a foreign country and sign a renunciation oath. This does not allow a person to escape old tax bills or military obligations. Now, expats’ representatives fear renunciations will become more common." The article blames the Patriot Act more than Obama at present.

Krauthammer: Obama may be president, but he's not "the arbiter of American political discourse"
Washington Examiner "In his Wall Street speech, President Obama relied on a common rhetorical crutch which was defining what is and is not a legitimate argument. Charles Krauthammer made a fantastic observation:
The way, and he has done this before — he tries to denigrate, cast- out, and de-legitimize any argument against his. And here he is talking about that it's not legitimate even to suggest that the bill he is supporting might encourage a bailout."
