Which Islam Will Prevail in America?

Andrew C. McCarthy "The victims of this lethal charade include American Muslims. They, too, crave religious liberty and Western enlightenment. Our elites abandon them to the sharia-mongers. That freedom destroyers have been allowed to pose as freedom defenders ought to tell mosque opponents something: We have done a poor job of explaining the stakes."

Now Democrats Want Another $34 Billion to Bailout Teamsters Pension

 Gateway Pundit  "When will Obama’s gifts to unions (at the expense of the taxpayers) ever end? On the heels of a $26.1 billion teacher union bailout, now Democrats are attempting to get Congress to give $34 billion of the taxpayer’s money to the Teamsters because that union has mishandled its pension funds."

Obama’s (Latest) Social Security Whopper

FactCheck.org "President Obama claimed that Republican leaders are pushing to make "privatizing Social Security a key part of their legislative agenda" should they regain control of the House and Senate. He said this is "right up there on their to-do list with repealing" parts of the new health care law.
"We find the president’s claim to be mostly false."

Valerie Plame 'Fair Game' Movie Tosses Name Leaker Richard Armitage Down Memory Hole

Newsbusters "Ironically you can learn more about the real facts of the Plame case (and who leaked Plame's name) by reading the IMDB "Fair Game" message board [3] than by seeing the movie itself. Some sample posts that delivers(sic) the information that the "Fair Game" propanda movie refuses to touch:"...
...The film conveniently leaves out the fact that we know who leaked her name and that character isn't even in the film...
I am amazed how Hollywood is willing to lose hundreds of millions, if not billions, to sell their leftist progapanda. At some point this will be self-limiting, when they run out of money or studio stockholders tire of losing money.
To quote just two comments.

Jerry Brown Fundraiser at Home of Hamas Supporter Jodie Evans Raises Questions. (Updated)

Big Government  "Is Jerry Brown aware of what Jodie Evans has been doing for the last eight years? Does he know she’s been consorting with enemies of America? Does he agree with the Code Pink founder, terrorist supporter, and Democrat party activist?
"Does Jerry Brown truly believe that it is “counter-productive and insulting to voters” to ask Brown why he is taking money from a woman who has the blood of American soldiers on her hands?
"The following are questions that the news media should be asking."...

Code Pink to Gold Star Mom: “Your Son Deserved to Die” "Yet Jodie Evans and her Code Pink degenerates taunted me and made light of my son’s sacrifice telling me, “Your son deserved to die in Iraq if he was stupid enough to go over there.” It took every ounce of reserve in my body to not level these idiots to the ground. These same people who call terrorists “freedom fighters” says that my son, who gave up his life for their freedoms, deserved death."


This from Big Peace.com" My son Marc is buried in Fort Rosecrans in San Diego along with a multitude of Vets who honorably served and gave their last breathe defending the shores of America. Their headstones are a testament to the sacrifices they have made as they gave the greatest gift they could, their life, so others could live and live free. Jerry Brown is dishonoring and disrespecting each of our fallen heroes by accepting money from a terrorist supporting lunatic! Jodie Evans has deeply insulted and offended me and so many other Gold Star families too many times."

George W. Bush Greets Troops at DFW. (Video)

Newsbusters "George W. Bush greets returning troops from Iraq. Try to get through this without shedding a tear..."
Do they do this at LAX and San Francisco International, to name just two?

And this from New Zealand.

Bush, Cheney Comfort Troops’ Families Privately From 2008.

Or, as the left-leaning Wikipedia would show it:

Obamacare Proponents Running Scared

Heritage "Heritage’s newly released “Solutions for America” counters that the nation doesn’t need any more liberal “improvements.” Instead, we need to get our country back on track with a full repeal of ObamaCare along with free-market policies that promote tax equity in health insurance, fix our broken government health programs and encourage states to take the lead."

Bush's Gift to Obama

Middle East Forum "Will Obama take the advice of the pressure-on-Israel enthusiasts who twice led him into the cul-de-sac of the "freeze on natural growth" of settlements? If he does, we are headed for another nasty squall with no constructive outcome. He has another choice, staring right at him in the Roadmap. Does the Roadmap's provenance in the hated Bush administration make it so repulsive to this administration that miss the opportunity Bush left him?" Steven J. Rosen served for 23 years as foreign policy director of AIPAC. He now heads the Washington Project of the Middle East Forum.

Obama Policies Threaten Israel's Security "When Hillary ran against Obama in 2008, her most effective campaign ad was one that showed a telephone ringing at 3 a.m. It was intended to warn Americans of the dangers of having an inexperienced president taking that crisis call in the middle of the night. Little did Hillary realize that she might be the one making that crisis call.
"It seems as if we are sleepwalking into danger. Is there anybody in this administration who is awake? " Ken Blackwell

Netanyahu / Mazen to talk; What Will They Talk About?

Jewish Institute for National Security Affairs "In accepting President Obama's summons, Prime Minister Netanyahu and Abu Mazen know they will, necessarily, be discussing the same four issues that were on the table in 2000. So, as President Obama pushes Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu and Abu Mazen, the questions are:
"•If Yasser Arafat could not accept any compromise then, why would President Obama think Abu Mazen, whose legitimate term of office ended in January 2009 and who controls far less territory and far fewer Palestinians, can compromise?
"•What will the President do if the talks fail and increased violence is again the result?"

The Tea Parties and the Future of Liberty

Stephen F. Hayes in Imprimus; "This dissatisfaction flows directly from the president’s policies and those of his party. It is not simply “anti-incumbent,” as many of my press colleagues would have it. This voter outrage—and it is outrage, not hate—is specific and focused: Americans are fed up with big government and deeply concerned about the long-term economic health of their country."

Moral myopia at Ground Zero

Charles Krauthammer "It takes no courage whatsoever to bask in the applause of a Muslim audience as you promise to stand stoutly for their right to build a mosque, giving the unmistakable impression that you endorse the idea. What takes courage is to then respectfully ask that audience to reflect upon the wisdom of the project..."
...."Ground Zero is the site of the most lethal attack of that worldwide movement, which consists entirely of Muslims, acts in the name of Islam and is deeply embedded within the Islamic world. ...And that is why putting up a monument to Islam in this place is not just insensitive but provocative."

Progressives – Obtuseness of Their Magnitude Better Be Deliberate "It’s not difficult to be a progressive, it takes little work or thought. But it becomes most uncomfortable when Charles Krauthammer enters the room, which is why they loathe him so." From iOwnTheWorld.com

PREDICTION: HOWARD DEAN WILL CHALLENGE OBAMA FOR THE NOMINATION

Astute Blogger 2012 is a long way off; take this with a grain of salt.

Dean: 'Some' Dems demonizing N.Y. mosque opponents  "I don't think -- I honestly -- I think some of my own folks at my end of the spectrum of the party are demonizing some fairly decent people who are opposed to this," he said. "And again, in no way am I defending the right-wing of the Republican Party. Sixty-five percent of the people in this country are not right-wing bigots. Some of them really have deep emotional feelings about this."
