Is Obama A Fool?

Powerline "I'm not giving up hope yet. Maybe Obama didn't really give away the store for nothing. So far, though, there is no evidence that he got anything from Russia in exchange for his abandonment of European missile defense. Could Obama possibly be that inept a negotiator? Time will tell. UPDATE: More evidence of Obama's foolishness here."

Europe: Obama Is Just Not That Into You

By Victor Davis Hanson= "Europe was said to have hated George W. Bush. But in President Bush’s second term, friendly governments in Britain, France, Germany, and Italy could count on American support in any crisis that might threaten the wealthy but defenseless European Union. Now, with Obama’s real interests unclear, these countries are, like spurned teenage lovers, acting out their worries in neurotic fashion."

Endangering People to Protect Fish

American Thinker "A paragon of conservation and modern irrigation technology, California agriculture - comprised of many small and family-owned and operated farms - is almost completely dependent on irrigation for its water needs.".... "Yet, this vibrant industry and major food supplier to the nation and the world faces threats from recent, accelerated efforts by Left wing politicians, government agencies, and extremist environmental groups who seek to limit the Central Valley farmland water supply."

Mark Davis: Another embarrassing Obama appointee

By Mark Davis, Dallas Morning News: "Jennings must go, not because of what he is, but because of what he thinks. It is an intolerable mockery for this man to have a job that involves the interests of children. And maybe with this exit, the president might actually bother to issue a quote that indicates he gets it." Related: Acorn's Ally at the NLRB : "Obama appoints an SEIU man with ties to Blago"

The Rush Limbaugh media lynch mob

UK Telegraph "As Mark Steyn points out, in this instance it’s for Limbaugh to prove the negative – an impossible task. And Dan Calebrese asks why if Limbaugh really is a racist then it takes bogus quotes to “prove” that he is? What’s the term for those who are setting about “racist” Rush Limbaugh right now? Ironically, it seems to be “lynch mob”."

Natural Born Losers

Ann Coulter, Townhall: "But Democrats couldn't care less about military strategy -- at least any "strategy" that doesn't involve allowing soldiers to date one another. To the extent you can get liberals to focus on national security at all, you will find they are rooting against their own country."...."A Democrat is president and, once again, America finds itself in an "unwinnable war." I know Democrats will never learn, but I wish the voters would."

America's Sheriff interview by GQ

GQ Magazine "[Sheriff Arpaio] says he's writing a letter to the Mexican Consul General, who, the week before, had reprimanded Arpaio for his "inhumane and barbaric" treatment of Mexican inmates. (In early February, the sheriff had marched two hundred Mexicans clad in pink undershirts from a county jail to their own Tent City, one of the primitive outdoor encampments for which he is best known.)"

Keep America Safe Mission statement: "The United States remains a nation at war. We face a growing threat from rogue regimes that seek or have already obtained nuclear weapons. America’s interests are challenged by an authoritarian China, a resurgent Russia, and dictators in our own hemisphere who ally themselves with our adversaries. Amidst the great challenges to America’s security and prosperity, the current administration too often seems uncertain, wishful, irresolute, and unwilling to stand up for America, our allies and our interests"...."Keep America Safe believes the United States can only defeat our adversaries and defend our interests from a position of strengh. We know that America has, for 233 years, been an unparalleled force for good in the world, that our fighting forces are the best the world has ever known, and that the world is a safer place when America is trusted by our allies and feared and respected by our enemies. Keep America Safe will make the case for an unapologetic approach to fighting terrorism around the world, for victory in the wars this country fights, for democracy and human rights, and for a strong American military that is needed in the dangerous world in which we live."

Rushing to Race Bate

Joseph Ashby in American Thinker "Whitlock goes on to explain that it’s fine for rapper Jay-Z to own a part of the Cleveland Cavaliers despite using lyrics laced with violence, racism and sexism."...."Right. So “serious people” are allowed to decide when Jay-Z is being serious, but Rush gets no such indulgence."
