Obama to withhold veto from Palestinian UN move to condemn Israeli settlements

Bosch Fawstin

DEBKAfile  "If he did, he would be the first US president to let an anti-Israel motion go through the Security Council; building on the West Bank and even in the forty-year old suburbs of East Jerusalem would become illegal, as would also municipal, police and military actions in these places.

"This situation would throw Israel's relations with the US, the UN and the European Union into deep crisis. By failing to block such a motion, Obama would encourage the Palestinians and hostile Arab states to continue to use the UN Security Council to undermine Israel's legitimacy and even recognize a unilateral Palestinian state within the pre-1967 borders without negotiations."

Breaking: FOX News Hires Olbermann

Hitler finds out Olbermann has been fired.


TW removed the cartoon from this spot. After reflecting, it seemed to be on a par with something the left might do to conservatives. We couldn't bear that thought.

Mud Libel

Ann Coulter   "The media continue to avoid giving any details and simply announce that Loughner was "anti-government," implying that he's your standard George Will conservative who believes Congress has offended the principles of federalism by encroaching on the states' authority under the Constitution.
"In fact, Loughner's "anti-government" beliefs consist of: burning the American flag on video; denouncing our currency with the exclamation, "No! I won't trust in God!"; and wanting to kill cops.
"His other big anti-government position is that he believes the government was behind 9/11 -- just like well-known tea partiers Rosie O'Donnell, Obama's "green jobs" czar Van Jones, Rehab habitue Charlie Sheen and left-wing historian Howard Zinn."

What hath the greenies wrought?

Ed Lasky  Utopians "often cause more problems than they help to solve in their single minded pursuits (see J. R. Dunn's new book Death By Liberalism)"....
"In other words, follow the money -- an argument I have made numerous times in my own coverage of green schemes.
"Al Gore -- now that he is wealthy and the winner of an Academy Award and Nobel Peace Prize -- has owned up to the "ethanol scam". He admitted politics was key to his support for ethanol, as it is now for Barack Obama as 2012 rapidly approaches.
"When will our politicians and the fanatics and rent-seekers driving this policy be forced to come clean as well?"

Has Greenspan gotten religion?

American Thinker  "There are certain things you just never expect to hear. Some of them follow:....
" 8. Alan Greenspan says we probably don't need a central bank."
You may find the other seven items more to your liking; sentences with the words "central bank" can make our eyes glaze over. But this subject affects out entire economy and standard of living going forward.

APPALLING IGNORANCE: these people make the laws we must live under

Astute Blogger "The Preamble of our Constitution reads as follows:

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

"The Fourteenth Amendment is HERE. Excerpt:

...nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law...

"Apparently, Congressman John Lewis does not comprehend the document he took an oath to uphold."

Lewis no stranger to anti-conservative comments

Washington Post Now Not Even Trying To Hide Its Hatred Of Sarah Palin

Le·gal In·sur·rec·tion "Rarely do we get such a clear example of the bias of the mainstream media and the extent to which it fears and hates Sarah Palin.
"But since she is "not electable" because of this media bias, we should throw Palin overboard and demand she not run and not be taken seriously by Republican voters, right?
"Because Dana Milbank and the Editors of The Washington Post get to pick our candidates, right?"

The Barack Hussein Obama 2011 State of the Union Drinking Game!

Cagle Blog  NEEDED TO PLAY:

• Four taxpayers of any sex: One rich, white banker- type wearing dark suit with loosened tie. Two ordinary folks wearing jeans; one in a blue or flannel work shirt, the other in a white shirt, sleeves rolled up. One poor, bedraggled person wearing clothes that look like they were retrieved from the bottom of a rodeo dumpster behind the animal-performer stalls.

• One living room with a TV tuned to the State of the Union Address...

Czechs Demonstrate Against the Persecution of Christians

Big Peace  "A line of renowned speakers was headed by Prague’s Catholic Archbishop who used the words “well-planned extermination amounting to genocide” and reminded the audience that “the map of the democratic world is identical with Biblical civilization”. He welcomed the participation of “our brothers of the Mosaic faith” who opened the meeting with blasts of the shofar (the ancient Biblical ram’s horn). The Archbishop emphasized that anti-Christianism and anti-Semitism were now closely related and that Christians and Jews must support each other."

No way Olbermann's firing means MSNBC is moving to the right, um, is it?

Newsbusters  "When you look at MSNBC's new prime time lineup, you certainly can't conclude this is the last move:"
•"Hardball" at 5PM
•Cenk Uygur as substitute host of an un-named show at 6PM
•"Hardball" at 7PM
•"The Last Word" at 8PM
•"Rachel Maddow Show" at 9PM
•"The Ed Show" at 10PM
....
"In time slot after time slot, MSNBC continues to get killed by Fox News in the ratings often getting as little as one quarter the viewers of its right-leaning rival. Since the moment the merger was announced months ago, people in the industry have speculated what a new ownership team would do about this."  Notice how often MSNBC gets promoted in NBC shows such as "Law and Order"?

Krauthammer Attacks Media's 'Bogus' Call for Civility: Where Were They When Bush was Being Called Hitler?

Newsbusters  " "The worst in uncivil discourse that we have had in the last decade occurred in the Bush years when the President was vilified, attacked, he was demonized, compared to Nazis," he told Chris Wallace on Fox News's "Special Report." "I do not remember the Times or the mainstream media all of a sudden wagging a finger and pulling a chin about the rise of uncivil discourse at the time" "
