How to intimidate your way to victory in labor negotiations

Hot Air  "I’m tempted to call this a master class but the master class was held in Wisconsin a few weeks ago. This is part two of a series that Breitbart’s Big Government site is running today. If you only have time for one clip, watch the second one (by clicking the image below) as that’s where you’ll find useful tips on how to convince your boss that you might physically destroy his business and/or kill him. Part one is interesting too, but like any college grad, I’m somewhat inured to the spectacle of dogmatic leftists ranting about “the system” in revolutionary terms. Abandon all hope of a “new tone,” ye who enter here."

Obama’s Pen: The Most Powerful Branch of Government?

Pajamas Media  "According to a release by House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform Chairman Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA), the draft executive order would require companies doing business with the federal government to disclose contributions to some issue advocacy groups while exempting labor unions and special interest groups that support the president’s agenda:

This order is a purely political act offered under the benign label of disclosure. … The order would not impose the same requirements on the labor unions or other organizations who support the president. Furthermore, it unnecessarily politicizes the procurement process.

GOP Rep. Peter King: CAIR Should Be Indicted

Bloody Pig’s Foot Sent To GOP Rep. Peter King [Updated: Hey CAIR! The Culprit is a Muslim Bigot]  "A Georgia grandmother who says she sent state Sen. Greg Ball a Curious George monkey with a label saying it was bound for Auschwitz, cheap perfume and an anger-filled, anti-Semitic letter also laid claim Wednesday to mailing a bloody pig’s foot to Rep. Peter King of Long Island."

Shooting Jews at Prayer: Coming to All Holy Sites in Jerusalem (Updated)

Peggy Shapiro  "The gravest danger is if Palestinians prevail at the UN this September and receive a unilateral declaration of a Palestinian State with the 1967 borders. Then all of Judaism's holy sites would fall victim to Arab control. This Passover's Palestinian shooting of Jews praying at Joseph's Tomb foreshadows the devastation to all Jewish holy sites in Jerusalem and the demise of Jewish religious freedom in the Jewish homeland. "

Arab "victims" desecrate Joseph's tomb

When does enough become enough?    "How many murders have to be committed by Palestinian Arabs just because the victim was a Jew and it was convenient to kill him, before there is a fundamental change in our way of thinking about Palestinian Arabs?"

Honor Killings, Jew-Hatred [and] UN Think: An Open Letter to Hina Jilani  "I once worked at the United Nations. In my opinion, it is completely ineffective save in two areas: It has legalized Jew-hatred with a vengeance and it has provided a High Life for many Third World/developing world professionals who wish to be well paid to live in the West and yet also wish to retain or achieve reputations as champions of justice. Therefore, I understand the price you would have to pay if you broke with UN-Think or with Third World Think which is so intensely anti-American, anti-Western, and anti-Israel—the convenient scapegoats for all the crimes and ills of the Arab and Muslim world."

Palestinian Baby Killers ""With their bloody mission accomplished, they left the Fogel home. But spotting a police car they returned inside, where they heard the crying of 3-month-old Hadas. They slit her throat. Unknowingly they left behind, unharmed, sleeping brothers Roi (age 8) and Yishai (age 2). Had they been noticed, Amjad blandly told Israeli investigators, the murderers "would not have hesitated to kill them."""

"The parents of 10-month-old Shalhevet Pass, residents of Hebron, were walking their baby in a stroller to visit her grandparents.

"Suddenly, there was a shot. Shalhevet's mother, Oriya, grabbed her baby but it was too late. Hit in the head, Shalhevet died instantly. Her father Yitzhak crumbled from a bullet wound in his leg. A Palestinian sniper, Sudki Zaro, had fired the deadly bullet from the nearby Abu Sneineh hills overlooking the city, which had recently been relinquished to Palestinian control by then Prime Minister Netanyahu."

Video: Opening Segment from Hannity's 'Behind the Bias: The History of Liberal Media'

Media Research Center "The hour began with what Sean Hannity described as “how and why this bias began,” illustrated with several classic examples of left-wing journalistic advocacy and/or denigration of conservatives. Watch that segment, about seven minutes in length.
"The Hannity show page on FoxNews.com has video of all the segments from the April 22 program."

What Did the Conservative Movement Accomplish?  "The greatest achievement of my lifetime is the defeat of communism. Jihadism has its terrors, but they are limited (as President-elect Obama pointed out in the campaign) compared to the old communist threat. Today, no foreign force currently on the planet can credibly threaten to topple the democracies of the world, including the United States. That's a pretty big change."

The Media Tells Us What We Think of Our Candidates  "Nobody has declared for the White House on the Republican side and already the media is working as hard as it can to diminish the field. Humm, wonder why they would want to do that? Basically the media is saying, “We don’t know what the field is yet, but we know Republicans don’t like it.” What they are really saying is that they don’t like it."

""We can't get our phones to work." Acting out his exasperation, he said: "Come on, guys. I'm the president of the United States! Where's the fancy buttons and stuff and the big screen comes up? It doesn't happen."" Oh, yeah, the "slug" comment is in there, but I thought this excerpt was kinda neat as well.

Black middle-class flight from northern big cities, failing public schools like nearby Fresno City College, where yesterday it was announced that 70 percent of students (the majority of them on some sort of federal and state loan support) fail to receive a two-year AA degree — these are just a few indications that increasing reliance on government subsidies does not eliminate, and may well perpetuate, such ills as illiteracy, poverty, and hunger.

John McCain Has a Lot To Answer For on Libya

Pajamas Media  "McCain calls the Libyan rebels his “heroes.” A year and a half earlier, in Tripoli, he described Gaddafi as America’s friend."
But remember McCain also said this in 2008:
McCain appears to concede he could lose by telling voters: We have nothing to fear with Barack Obama in the White House

Video: McCain's own words  The rank and file voters didn't buy it then and sure won't now. But remember, don't trust anyone under 30.

The Uniqueness of Jesus; Liar, Lunatic, or Lord?  "A serious study of the Gospels leads a person to one of three conclusions about Jesus: He was (1) an evil lying villain, (2) a preposterously deluded madman, or (3) the Messiah, the Son of God. It is ludicrous for anyone who has studied His life to take the position that He was simply a good teacher. Only one of the three conclusions is a logical possibility."  Patrick Zukeran, Point of View

Parents, don't dress your girls like tramps

CNN.com  "It's easy to blast companies for introducing the sexy wear, but our ire really should be directed at the parents who think low rise jeans for a second grader is cute. They are the ones who are spending the money to fuel this budding trend. They are the ones who are suppose to decide what's appropriate for their young children to wear, not executives looking to brew up controversy or turn a profit.
"I get it, Rihanna's really popular. But that's a pretty weak reason for someone to dress their little girl like her."

Gabrielle Giffords' doctors, husband share details on her progress

 The Arizona Republic   "Many other things are different since Giffords' brain was pierced by a bullet during the shootings near Tucson on Jan. 8. Her hair is short, maybe 2 inches long, says Pia Carusone, her chief of staff, so there are scars on her scalp that show through. Eventually, her hair will cover them. A thin scar across the top of her forehead is healing well and fading, and her face, though sometimes swollen, is otherwise the same as before..."
