Filtering History
Thomas Sowell "Only the fact that the West had more firepower than others put an end to slavery in many non-Western societies during the age of Western imperialism. Yet today there are Americans who have gone to Africa to apologize for slavery-- on a continent where slavery has still not been completely ended, to this very moment."
Obama's credibility crisis
Washington Post "As the Obama administration will learn, plummeting public trust eats away at the fundamental credibility of government and undermines its ability to carry out even its most basic duties."
Is this Obama's understanding of the free market?
Boortz "The bottom line here is that our "sort of a God" president doesn't seem to understand the basic essence of a free market economy, and this spells danger for our economy."
Death Panels: Sarah Palin was right.
Gateway Pundit "Obama Budget Director Peter Orszag admitted earlier this month that: A Powerful Rationing Panel (Not Doctors) Will Control Health Care Levels. Via Breitbart TV: " Jim Hoft
Top Islamic Site Calls for the Final Jihad
Europe News
"This is the only the first in a series of messages which will be provided for use in the worldwide struggle to establish a truly and fully Islamic world. This declaration simply and publicly calls the Muslim ummah to jihad."
Dressing up left-liberal jurisprudence once again
Powerline "But the public not only dislikes Obamacare, it favors repeal. Thus, the White House's reformulated empathy standard can be viewed as cutting in favor of a decision that would find Obamacare unconstitutional. What Obama really wants, I think, is a justice who will be animated not by what ordinary citizens think they want, but by what the liberal elite has concluded they need. "

“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.
