Full-body scanner catches cell phone, misses bomb on German TV [video]

Daily Caller “Admittedly, he only faced the scanner from the front and not from the side,” wrote computer security pro Bruce Schneier. “But he also didn’t hide anything in a body cavity other than his mouth — I didn’t think about that one — he didn’t use low density or thinly sliced PETN, and he didn’t hide anything in his carry-on luggage. Full-body scanners: they’re not just a dumb idea, they don’t actually work.” Hope you understand German but the point is clear.

A Warning For The Next Scott Brown

Legal Insurrection "Coakley's image problem was not the result of smears, but a result of the blogosphere and mainstream media publicizing Coakley's own words in context.There were, however, three key smears directed at Scott Brown, none of which took off because of the overall momentum in the race. Nonetheless, these smears are a road map as to how the next Scott Brown will be attacked." A good look at leftist tactics to appear in upcoming elections.

Newsbusters "The anger over Keith Olbermann's disgraceful rants against Scott Brown continues to mount. On Thursday, WOR radio's Steve Malzberg voiced his opinion of the "out of control, leftwing nut-job" MSNBC host.

Hollywood Director: White Conservatives ‘More Terrifying’ Than ‘Any Jihadist’

Big Hollywood "Well, you have to keep in mind that in Leftist Hollywood comparing 100 million or so Americans to terrorists is what-you-call a resume enhancer. (If you just say that about the Marines, it’s called “Avatar.”) Now, had Carnahan said jihadists are more terrifying than white conservatives, the CAIR Apology Tour would be well underway."

America Rising; an open letter to Democrat politicians

Conservative Analysis "This is absolutely the best, most powerful video message since the Day of Great Darkness began our downward spiral on 04NOV2008. …and even moreso, because it was clearly produced by the PUMAs and other Dem-leaning independents that helped elect The One in the first place."

DoJ recommends Bush strategy for terrorist detainees

Krauthammer: The Meaning of Brown

Townhall "Obama pretended that the real cause was a generalized anger and frustration "not just because of what's happened in the last year or two years, but what's happened over the last eight years." Let's get this straight: The antipathy to George W. Bush is so enduring and powerful that ... it just elected a Republican senator in Massachusetts? Why, the man is omnipotent. "

The revenge of the brightest and the best

Powerline "There are a number of recent developments that are gratifying for conservatives and Republicans. One small thing that gratifies me is the emergence of former Bush administration officials and staffers as powerful spokespersons in the fight against Obama's left-liberal policies."

CNN Christiane Amanpour Caught in her America and Jew hating Lies About "Torture"

Atlas Shrugs "If you don't have time for the whole thing... start at minute 5:30.............and check out how this Jew hater throws the Jews in - from out of nowhere - just because she can't contain her poison."

Progressives and Their Fallacies

American Thinker "Despite such problematic reality, capitalism-haters will persist in spreading tall tales to bolster their belief that socioeconomic injustice causes crime. They will push confiscatory taxes to spread wealth to those who've produced none so that said non-producers won't feel victimized, and they hurt actual producers who did nothing to harm the non-producers because the former were too busy creating jobs -- jobs which the non-producers summarily ignore in order to free up time to hold out their hands and grab producers' redistributed wealth. Confusing? Smile. This makes sense to progressives."
