Obama’s Quiver Is Empty; When Obama stands up to speak, he faces a collective “Been there, done that.”

Victor Davis Hanson  "The speeches still are well delivered; he still has a way with the mannerisms and cadences. But even his critics pray for his sake that he does not come out with yet another embarrassing “Let me be perfectly clear,” “Make no mistake about it,” or “Let’s be honest” — as he goes back to bashing either the tired Bush bogeyman or yet another strawman Satanic reactionary who, if not for Barack Obama, supposedly would expose children to mercury, neglect roads and bridges, and finally dissolve government altogether. We have all heard ad nauseam that an eight-month-old Republican-controlled Congress has stopped Obama’s legislative agenda for three years."

The book gives a good idea of his virtues without resorting to hagiography.
Conservative Blogs Central  has this:...."And, although your are no longer president, you continue to support the communist dictator regimes of Fidel Castro and Hugo Chavez. As icing on the cake of death and destruction which you have baked, you gave North Korea $4 billion worth of light water reactors and $100 million in oil in an attempt to appease Kim Jung Il and on his “promise” that he would not develop nuclear weapons (which they now have, thank you very much). "

Updated! Obama's Attack Watch site: the update you just knew was coming; Hitler responds!

"Join Attack Wire—and help stop the attacks on the President before they start."

Obama for America

Here's their Twitter account, or whatever it's called.


Jammie Wearing Fool   "This Attack Watch fiasco will go down in history as the moment Obama was laughed off stage. I've been on Twitter a couple of years and never have I seen an avalanche of ridicule as I've witnessed the past 18 hours."

Via Bookworm Room  "Yoo Hoo! #AttackWatch! This is a great one, because it simultaneously manages to make both you and Obama look ridiculous. As for me, I want to be painted all red and ugly and end up on your site too. The honor of it all…."

Obama: If you love me, pass my jobs bill

Google  "One supporter from the raucous crowd shouted to Obama that they loved him, and in a standard response from his 2008 campaign he replied "I love you back" then added a new twist.
" "If you love me, you got to help me pass this bill," Obama said, repeating the line to more cheers."

Imam Rauf's World Trade Center Conquest Imagery

Andrew G. Bostom   "The Call of Azan from the Rubble of the World Trade Center: Islamic Da'wa in the Heart of America Post-9/11"."The recent solemn tenth anniversary of the acts of jihad terrorism on 9/11/2001, juxtaposed to such triumphal Islamic imagery, should remind us forever of Rauf's conquering mentality, notwithstanding his false, if treacly and oft-repeated claims of "ecumenism"."
The azan is the muezzin's call to prayer. It consists of a number of sentences repeated several times: "Allahu Akbar," the Shahada (la ilaha illa Allah wa-Muhammad rasoul Allah - "There is no God but Allah and Muhammad is His Messenger") and the phrase "Gather for prayer." It is noteworthy that, in the period of Muslim conquests in the first centuries of Islam, this call was made from newly conquered sites.....

Mosque site picked for 'iconic' value;  Compares situation to al-Aqsa mosque on Temple Mount in Jerusalem   "The idea here that will be widely understood is that this mosque is another triumphal mosque, another victory mosque [like] the Dome of the Rock and the al-Aqsa Mosque on the site of the Temple Mount and the Umayyad Mosque in Damascus," Spencer told WND today."

I cannot express how much distaste there is for me in the World Trade Center memorial site; it is a monument to victory for Islamic radicals. They can admire the two gaping holes at the site and proudly proclaim "we did this!" Then they can walk down the street to the triumphal mosque for prayers to Allah.
I like the Pentagon; the way it was immediately restored to the way it was. It said to the murderers, "see how little your deaths meant? It is as if it never happened!"
But then they built the memorial to the flight path of the hijacked plane and now the Islamists have another trophy to show off.  TD

GOP novice wins Weiner's old N.Y. House seat

This vote was seen as a vote on Barack Obama  "It was a heavily Jewish district, and some are suggesting that Obama’s cavalier treatment (mistreatment) if Israel is coming home to roost."

Obama's Israel policy seen as factor that cost him House seat  "The race was supposed to be an easy win for Democrats, who have a 3-1 ratio registration advantage in the district.
"A number of voters who spoke to the New York Times said that the Israel issue played a major role in their decision to support Turner, who was repeatedly critical of Obama on the subject of his policy towards Israel."  Via Drudge.

Democrats have held the seat since March 1923 


Obama's CHICKENSSSSS...have come HOMMME...to ROOSSST! 

Via JustOneMinuteRebuking Obama  "“New Yorkers put Washington Democrats on notice that voters are losing confidence in a President whose policies assault job-creators and affront Israel,” said National Republican Congressional Committee Chairman Pete Sessions (R-Texas) in a statement after Turner’s win."

Ridiculous NY-09 spin: “It’s a very difficult district for Democrats”
“I am a registered Democrat, I have always been a registered Democrat, I come from a family of Democrats — and I hate to say this, I voted Republican,” said Linda Goldberg, 61, after casting her ballot in Queens. “I need to send a message to the president that he’s not doing a very good job. Our economy is horrible. People are scared.”  
Five Quick Lessons from NY-9 ; Obama’s unpopularity wasn’t the only factor. 
This National Review article discusses the following:Candidates matter.
National security matters.
Marriage matters.
Obama remains a liability for Democrats.
Republicans should not ignore New York.

10 Years Later: 9/11 Ticket Agent Let Hijackers Board b/c “I’m Not Prejudiced”

Debbie Schlussel  "One of real lessons of the 9/11 Islamic attacks on America continues to go unheeded because so many Americans would rather die or sacrifice their fellow Americans’ lives, rather than be accused of prejudice. "....
"And while the ACLU files lawsuit after lawsuit every time a Muslim gets a paper cut or breaks a nail."
....
They seem so nice.
"Remember, political correctness–especially PC pandering to Muslims–kills. It didn’t just kill 3,000 Americans on 9/11. It killed plenty before and plenty since, including the 13 murder victims of Islam at Fort Hood.
"Sadly, the U.S. Government contradicts itself in its absurd message. On the one hand, it tells us, “if you see something, say something.” But, then, it tells you that if you say something, you are prejudiced against “innocent, peaceful Muslims.” Don’t believe it."

 DOROTHY RABINOWITZ :  A Dark Day's Enduring Life   "A note about CNN's "Footnotes of 9/11," which takes up the subject of people who are mentioned in the "9/11 Commission Report." They were part of the history of the day, if peripheral figures, though in one or two instances they emerge as more. One of the more memorable of the eight subjects here is the Dulles Airport ticket agent who checked in two of the hijackers—Middle Eastern men whose look and demeanor immediately raised his suspicions. The agent followed the men, he reports, then stopped himself from alerting anyone. He didn't want to be accused of prejudice, of harboring suspicions because of racial feelings. A vignette from a footnote—but one that has much to tell about some of the underlying reasons for the ease with which the hijackers were able to board the planes and fulfill their murderous mission."

Israel Remembers 9/11

United with Israel  " Israel remembered the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on Sunday with a memorial at the 9/11 Living Memorial in Jerusalem.
"“September 11th, to quote former U.S. President Roosevelt is ‘a date which will live in infamy,’” said Deputy Foreign Minister Danny Ayalon, speaking at the event. “Even 10 years after the horrendous terror attack, we are still shaken to our core by the enormity of this heinous and cowardly act.”"



9/11 anniversary: across the Islamic world opinion is against the militants   "One key factor in the rejection of militant extremism from Morocco to Malaysia appears to be the proximity of violence. In country after country, support for Osama bin Laden, for al-Qaida's methods or for violence against civilians, relatively high when the attacks occurred thousands of miles away, declined steeply when militants struck at home."....

"One of the most dramatic examples of this shift of opinion happened in Jordan: before the hotel bombings in Amman, in November 2005, support for suicide bombing (outside Israel-Palestine) stood at 57%, according to Pew; that declined to 12% by 2009, dropping by more than half in the months after the hotel attack."

The American people can handle the truth about Obama’s phony jobs bill

Legal Insurrection  "There is a good reason Obama did not unveal his jobs bill prior to his jobs speech.
It’s because the jobs bill is not a jobs bill, it is the tax increase Obama has been hoping for since he was a candidate, taking $400 billion from people making $200,000 or more (couples making $250,000 or more). Had Obama released the plan, all the talk surrounding the speech would have been about the tax increase, the opposite of what the Axelplouffe message machine wanted.
"What Obama misleadingly calls a jobs bill literally takes $400 billion from the demonized “top 2%” over 10 years to give to almost everyone else now, a pure redistributionist plan. There is some revenue taken from oil companies and corporate jet owners (yes, that’s in there), but that is just political cover, a relatively small percentage of the total tax increase, as this chart shows:"
"Pass this bill!"
