Well, OK then: Jimmy Carter not concerned about Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood

David Paulin  This should help us all breathe a sigh of relief.

What Big Government Can Do

Human Events  "Four problems that can only exist if Big Government creates them."

Rebellion Seethes in Gulf

Wall Street Journal  "If Bahrain's Sunni-led government were to be forced from power—something protesters haven't yet made a focus of their demands—some fear a new government might seek closer ties to Iran and force the U.S. Navy to relocate. Another concern is that an uprising in Bahrain could spill into next-door Saudi Arabia or Kuwait, where even minor unrest might roil world-wide oil markets."

Putting Politics Over Security, Obama Moves to Unionize TSA

Heritage "The government unions that already exist spent hundreds of millions of dollars electing President Obama so he could appoint Pistole to run the TSA. Now that investment is paying off. This will only continue. More government unions breeds more campaign cash for liberals, which breeds more government spending and agencies, which breeds more collective bargaining for those government employees, and the cycle continues."

TSA TO COLLECTIVELY MAKE YOUR LIVES MISERABLE "Question:  Just what rights are current TSA workers being denied without collective bargaining rights?  Just curious.  The fact is, there is no purpose for unions in this modern work era.  Unions are no longer useful in most workplaces, and downright dangerous in government workplaces.  But nowadays, there is no employer that is going to impose outrageous hours, or hire children or provide an unsafe work environment.  That's just no longer the case.  So if the original intent of unions was to change these types of egregious violations, and they have succeeded in doing so, then what else does a union have left to do?  Well nowadays, all they have left to do is to push for more."

Rocky and Republicans

Thomas Sowell   "Back when George W. Bush first emerged on the national political scene in 2000, Democrats said that he lacked "gravitas." The media kept repeating it.People who had never used the word "gravitas" in years were suddenly saying "gravitas" 24/7 on news programs, interview shows and in the newspapers and magazines.
"When have you ever known the Republicans to be that coordinated?
"Not only do Republicans fail to take the initiative when it comes to political rhetoric, they are not very good at counter-punching when they are hit."

Reminder: 9/11 Ringleader Mohammed Atta Was a Member of Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood…

Weasel Zippers  "On that morning, it was Mohamed Atta — Egyptian, Muslim Brotherhood disciple, anti-capitalist — who succeeded in slaughtering 1,434 Americans in that North Tower."

Never underestimate hate from the Left, especially when it comes to conservative blacks

Herman Cain

Bookworm Room  "From everything I’ve heard, including musings from our own Danny Lemieux, Cain is a person one would like to have in the White House. He may not have a political track record, but he’s still got a lot more under his belt than our current president. The latter had a few years voting “present” in regional and national senates, and a cushioned existence as a lecturer and activist. Cain has lived out in the real world, and made a success of himself. He has a moral center, and the ability to communicate those values. We could do — and are now doing — infinitely worse."

Top Ten Reasons to Support Herman Cain for President "This would be the hope and change America thought they were getting in 2008. This would be ticket not so much of "racial healing" as it would be the ticket of "just get over the race thing." Because liberalism is joined at the hip with the race pimp industry, a liberal African-American cannot by definition do for the country what a black conservative can. A black liberal winning reinforces counterproductive stereotypes. A conservative black winning crushes them. Period."

This from the racist, bigoted left:-  "The far-left's racially-tinged paranoia and hatred of black conservatives rears its ugly head from time to time, often without the notice let alone disapproval of the liberal mainstream media.
"Hermain Cain is just the latest target."

Obama’s Egypt debacle and the vacuum it exposes.

Newsweek  "Nixon and Kissinger ...were able to eject the Soviets from a position of influence and turn Egypt from a threat into a malleable ally. And their overtures to China exploited the divisions within the Communist bloc, helping to set Beijing on an epoch-making new course of economic openness.
"The contrast between the foreign policy of the Nixon-Ford years and that of President Jimmy Carter is a stark reminder of how easily foreign policy can founder when there is a failure of strategic thinking. The Iranian Revolution of 1979, which took the Carter administration wholly by surprise, was a catastrophe far greater than the loss of South Vietnam.
"Remind you of anything? “This is what happens when you get caught by surprise,” an anonymous American official told The New York Times last week. “We’ve had endless strategy sessions for the past two years on Mideast peace, on containing Iran. And how many of them factored in the possibility that Egypt moves from stability to turmoil? None.”"

Will Obama Stand With Protesters In Iran?   "Iranian hard-liners are now calling for the execution of opposition leaders. Never heard that coming out of the Mubarak regime in Egypt.
"So, where will President Obama be in all of this? Will he stand strong with the protesters, or will his desires to make peace with our adversaries prevent him from standing up for human rights? The Obama Administration promised that they would have a greater pull with Tehran than the Bush Administration ever did because they would be more culturally sensitive to the Iranians and less belligerent. Well, how about demonstrating that ability right now?"

Another Triumph for the Greens

Weekly Standard  "To go with toilets that don’t flush and light bulbs that don’t light, we now have dishwashers that don’t wash."

Muslim Brotherhood ... we've been here before

The Jerusalem Connection  "...On Feb. 16, 1979, the New York Times ran a lengthy op-ed by Richard Falk, a professor of international law at Princeton, under the headline “Trusting Khomeini.”

"“The depiction of [Khomeini] as fanatical, reactionary and the bearer of crude prejudices seems certainly and happily false,” wrote Mr. Falk. “What is also encouraging is that his entourage of close advisers is uniformly composed of moderate, progressive individuals.”"  Pay attention to history or else.

Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood Plans to Set up Party "The United States has expressed concern about what it has called the Brotherhood's "anti-American rhetoric", but stopped short of saying it would be against the group taking a role in a future government." Obama again.

YEAH ... GO AHEAD AND NOMINATE SARAH PALIN

Neal Boortz  "It would seem that if I'm going to be a good conservative there is some unwritten rule that I must believe that Sarah Palin would make a fantastic president of the United States.  Sorry, don't buy it.  Several times on the air I told my listeners that if they want to make sure that Barack Obama is a two-term president, all they have to do is put Sarah Palin on a national ticket.  Now before you go ballistic, hear me out.  It's not that I don't like her."...
