The Appalling Media Double Standard on Reporting Political Violence

Pajamas Media   "The message from the media was clear: any violence against their liberal allies will be broadcast far and wide, and any threat or slur will be published as fact, no matter how dubious the claim. The reverse, sadly, is not true, and that is not a recent development. While the media is all over the recent bombing attempt in Times Square, they quickly swept the 2008 bombing of the Times Square military recruiting station under the rug."   Bob Owens blogs at  Confederate Yankee .

Boycott the boycotters

Ralph Alter "The American Tea Party movement and its sympathizers represent a significant majority of Americans. They have already promised to boycott the Democrat party come November. The mass retirements of incumbent Democrat congressmen suggests that they are getting the message.

Putin disinvites Biden to WW II anniversary celebration

American Thinker "Why such a muted response from Mr. Obama and Secretary of State Clinton? They were loud and aggressive in their response to a perceived snub of Mr. Biden by Israel, doesn't this deliberate insult to the vice president merit a similar response? Where is the MSM coverage of this story? It looks like this is yet another curious chapter in the Obama foreign policy pay book."

Supreme Court: Roll The Dice On Kagan?

Legal Insurrection "I'm not ready to say that Kagan should be confirmed if nominated, but would a roll of the dice really be that bad considering the alternatives?" William A. Jacobson

Motherhood Matters

Journal for Biblical Manhood and Womanhood "They save the precious handmade Mother's Day cards. They savor the sweet, sticky kisses. They remember forever how their children's sparkling eyes light up when they spot mom at the door of the church nursery, knowing that no one else will suffice. At the end of the day, motherhood matters because we are charged with the awesome task to train the next generation..."  Mary K. Mohler

Happy Mother's Day ; a history

Newsbusters "During the 1600's, the early Christians in England celebrated a day to honor Mary, the mother of Christ. By a religious order the holiday was later expanded in its scope to include all mothers, and named as the Mothering Sunday.

Newsbusters "Outspoken actor Danny Glover was booed on Saturday for, amongst other things, not putting his hand over his heart during a flag ceremony prior to his commencement address at Utah State University." Is Danny Glover really the best person to have speaking to graduates?    Why this parade of  American malcontents at our universities?

Tip-Toeing Through the Tulips While the Housing Bubble Burst

Verum Serum "Rep. Frank, of course, has a distinguished history of ineptitude when it comes to regulation of the housing industry, and his role in the financial market collapse. But when it comes to avoiding culpability, he is second to no one in his ability to spin a web of deceipt and reinvent history."

Coulter: Media 'Working Through Grief of Car Bomber Not Being a Tea Partier'

Newsbusters  "Conservative author Ann Coulter on Friday in one sentence perfectly summed up the media's reaction to the identity of the man that caused a state of panic in New York's Times Square last weekend: "They're working through their grief of the car bomber not being a Tea Partier."  Such was marvelously said on Fox News's "O'Reilly Factor."

As Vichy Hollywood Cowers Before Islam, Another Catholic-Bashing Film Greenlit

Big Hollywood "What we have instead is an industry infected with partisan Leftists; gutless appeasers of the highest order who at best have chosen to run from this fight and at worst have joined the other side."

The FCC puts another industry under political control.

WSJ "A federal appeals court ruled last month that the Federal Communications Commission lacks the authority to regulate the Internet. No worries, mate. This week the Obama Administration chose to "reclassify" the Internet so it can regulate the Web anyway. This crowd is nothing if not legally creative."...."Autos, health care, energy, Wall Street and now telecom. Is there any American industry this Administration doesn't want to run?"
 Net Neutrality War Heats Up "Scaled back or not, Net Neutrality is the government foot in the Internet door, with ominous implications for future private investment as well as for the future vitality of the new media. And so the Obama agenda rolls out, aided and abetted by the old-line, far-left, Democratic committee chairmen like Mr. Waxman. November can not come soon enough."
