An Israeli man was nearly lynched Sunday night by a violent Arab mob. The potential victim was saved – by an Arab.

United with Israel   ... "An eyewitness to the attack told Israel’s Ynet about the extreme violence he saw: “More than 20 people, a few of them masked, stopped the car and began to throw stones and launch firecrackers. They took the driver out of the car and began to beat him all over his body while shouting Allah Akbar.”

"An Arab who was driving by, identified only as Makdy, saw the developing lynch and went to save the Israeli. He told IDF Radio that “during the first moments I did not think twice. Someone threw rocks but I stopped him. I took him [the Israeli] into my car and drove away quickly, and then dropped him off at a police checkpoint.' ”

Rush Limbaugh Threatens To Sue Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee

NY Daily News:  "Limbaugh charges that the DCCC sent out a letter that distorted comments he delivered on his syndicated radio show in September, making it appear he might excuse sexual assault. The letter also called for respondents to boycott Limbaugh’s advertisers.

"Limbaugh’s attorney Patty Glaser sent a letter to the DCCC Monday demanding an apology and a retraction, then warning that even if he got them, he still might sue."
 
Daily Caller

 

 

... “Let’s be clear: Rush Limbaugh is advocating for the tolerance of rape” the DCCC stated in a September fundraising email after Limbaugh mocked Ohio State’s new mandatory sexual consent guidelines. (RELATED: Democrats Attack Rush Limbaugh On Way To November Loss)

"Limbaugh’s team said that the DCCC’s campaign against Limbaugh provides grounds for a defamation case, based on legal precedent."

Fox News:  “The DCCC may believe it to be immune from liability by quoting words, taken out of context. This is untrue,” [ Limbaugh's attorney Patty] Glaser said. “There is significant on point precedent in the 9th Circuit for holding an organization responsible for falsifying meaning through selective quoting. In Price v. Stossel, the court held that, if a party accurately quotes ‘a statement actually made by a public figure, but presents the statement in a misleading context, thereby changing the viewer’s understanding of the speaker’s words,’ that constitutes defamation.”

Obama won 2014 non-vote in landslide

Legal Insurrection

 

Not sure how many more of these victories Democrats can take.   "Byron York remarks on one of the more remarkable aspects of Obama’s post-election press conference, the notion that those who did not vote have given him a mandate:

President Obama did something extraordinary, perhaps unprecedented, in his post-election news conference Wednesday: He claimed a mandate on behalf of voters who didn’t vote.
“To everyone who voted, I want you to know that I hear you,” the president said. “To the two-thirds of voters who chose not to participate in the process yesterday, I hear you, too.”
What did that mean? What did those non-voters say?
It would probably be more useful to ask what the president heard. And apparently Obama heard expressions of support from non-voters across the land.   More...

Beijing sees the US president as a weak leader in the autumn of his presidency

Financial Times

 

"Second-term US presidents traditionally seek solace on the global stage. Barack Obama is no exception. Following last week’s drubbing in the US midterm elections, he lands in China on Monday for a summit with Xi Jinping. He is unlikely to find Beijing more pliable than Washington DC. As time goes on, it becomes ever harder to separate his domestic weakness from his global standing. Even the tone is spreading. “US society has grown tired of [Obama’s] banality,” China’s semi-official Global Times said last week.' " ... 

On his last visit to China, when he was still riding high at home, Mr Obama was treated shabbily by his hosts. Today’s much-diminished figure is unlikely to have greater sway.

Also from Drudge:  Condi: The world isn’t listening to the U.S.  "Condoleezza Rice slammed the Obama administration’s handling of Iraq and America’s lack of strength on the world stage, saying that “nobody listens” when the U.S. isn’t leading."

The day a Holocaust survivor got revenge on his tormentor

 NY Post via Weasel Zippers

 

"He survived the savagery of the Holocaust, made it to America with barely a penny and became a world-famous tailor in Brooklyn, dressing celebrities and presidents. In his new memoir, “Measure of a Man,” Martin Greenfield tells the story of his extraordinary life. In this excerpt, he explains how the concentration camps nearly stripped him of his humanity at age 16 — and the day he got it back."...

Chris Hayes’ Attkisson Interview Sums Up MSNBC’s Issues in One Question

Mediaite

 

"This is the tale of two journalists.

 

"One has won multiple Emmy awards going back to the turn of the century, including an investigative series at the end of the Bush 43 years titled, “Bush Administration’s Bait and Switch on TARP and the Bank Bailout.” Another report revealed fraud around multi-billion dollar Halliburton contracts in Iraq, which earned her ample praise from the left. Sharyl Attkisson also was one of the first journalists to fly combat missions over Kosovo.

 

"The other journalist is the former editor of The Nation magazine. He hasn’t won any Emmy awards and invariably finishes a distant third in his 8:00 p.m. MSNBC time slot in a three horse race. Chris Hayes hasn’t flown in any combat missions as a journalist, but was hit by a modest rock covering the Ferguson riots this past August." ...

...

"Hayes interview of Ms. Attkisson "included the host asking his guest if she was angling for a job at Fox News — the only thought that comes mind is the following:

 

"He has some balls asking that question. And no, that’s not meant as a compliment. Hayes questioning someone as decorated and objective as Attkisson if she fabricated an allegation against the government (for hacking her computer) was somehow motivated because she needed to enhance already one of the most — if not the most — extensive resumes in investigative journalism would be like Arsenio Hall asking Johnny Carson if he knew how to effectively interview a guest."

CBS Announces ‘Mentalist’ Return Date

The American Culture

 

"There’s good news for TV mystery fans: CBS-TV has announced that The Mentalist will return for its seventh and final season beginning November 30. In the first week of January the show will switch to Wednesdays at 8:00 EST. The show will wrap up with a two-hour series finale on Feb. 18.

 

"Starring Simon Baker as the title character, a consulting detective working, for five seasons, with the California Bureau of Investigation, and then with the FBI in the most recent season, The Mentalist presented interesting storylines underscored by the protagonist’s tragic past: his wife and daughter were murdered just before the events of the first episode. Baker, however, kept things from becoming too lugubrious, lending the character a good deal of personal charm and times of cheerfulness. That was an excellent decision on the part of the actor and writers.

"Unsure of whether the show would be renewed after season six, the producers resolved the main storylines in the last few episodes of last season, with Baker’s character, Patrick Jane, finally expressing his romantic feelings toward his boss, Special Agent Teresa Lisbon, in the final episode of the season. right before the last couple of episodes aired, CBS announced that the show would return this season.

"With the big, emotional storylines having been settled (while leaving plenty of room for new complications), the show’s creator and executive producer, Bruno Heller, has described the upcoming season as an “encore.” That suggests that the show will be more like TV series used to be: a collection of episodes, each of which largely stands on its own. Now, that would be a real innovation."

Harry Reid’s Desk

Bokbluster

 

"A year ago President Obama said, “If you don’t like a particular policy, if you don’t like a particular president, go out there and argue your position, win an election.”

 

"And so it came to pass.

 

"Now that his party has lost the Senate, Obama says he’s willing to listen to Republican ideas – if they have any. Whether he is or they do remains to be seen. But they have had some ideas in the past. Those ideas were packaged into about 350 House Resolutions and passed on to the Senate where they sit in Harry Reid’s desk.

 

"The way Mitch McConnell sees it Reid protected the president from legislation he didn’t like by not bringing bills to his desk.

 

"The New York Times, in January, called Harry a brute."

Politifact, however, says some of those bills are simply caught up in committee. Glenn Kessler of the Washington Post says it’s not at all unusual for Harry Reid to have 300 bills to be stuffed in his drawers.

Defying Soviets, Then Pulling Hungary to Putin 25 Years After Fall of the Berlin Wall

NY Times  ... "Viktor Orban was 26 then and a longhaired law graduate. In June 1989, five months before the Berlin Wall came down, he lit up a commemoration of the failed 1956 revolt against Moscow with a bold call for free elections and a demand that 80,000 Soviet troops go home.

 

"Now, as the 25th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall is commemorated Sunday, Hungary is a member of NATO and the European Union and Mr. Orban is in his third term as prime minister. But what was once a journey that might have embodied the triumph of democratic capitalism has evolved into a much more complex tale of a country and a leader who in the time since have come to question Western values, foment nationalism and look more openly at Russia as a model."...

From Hungary Today, we see that Mr. Obama has had ongoing issues with the nation.

Looks like Obama gives Hungary the same headaches he gives America for some of the same reasons:  PM Orbán: US Weighs Pressure On Hungary
... "Washington weighs great pressure on Hungary due to its objections to the South Stream pipeline and the upgrade of the nuclear power plant in Paks, Hungarian PM Viktor Orbán told at the Hanns Seidel Foundation in Munich. " ...

Our delusional and dangerous president

American Thinker  "Remember when just last year Obama arrogantly said:

“You don’t like a particular policy or a particular president, then argue for your position. Go out there and win an election.”

"Well, now that we won an election (massively, I might add), Obama has a new take on things.  Gee, what a surprise.  Per the Washington Examiner, it goes something like this:

...

"A megalomaniac who hates America is running the country.  And as we know all too well, with no elections left to win, over the coming weeks, months, and, yes, unfortunately, years, he’s going to let ‘er rip.

 

"However politically active we were leading up to Election Day, we need to double our efforts now, because we are entering a very dangerous time as Obama goes off the rails."

Hard of Hearing
