Obama & Dems to Ram Through Unpopular Health Care Bill With 51 Votes

Gateway Pundit "Obama said that senate democrats had to “break more filibusters last year than in the entire 1950s and 1960s combined” despite the fact that there wasn’t a single filibuster in 2009. Not one. Now we know that it was all a set-up. "

When Islam comes to call - your culture disappears - literally

Up Pompeii "Nobody knows how this country would have developed had Islam not taken it, and does the present condition of this country give us insight into what our country [England]may become if the Islamic invasion is not effectively stopped.The article states that society in that country effectively stopped - disappeared - upon Islam gaining dominance in the region."

"Miss Me Yet?" Bush Merchandise a Hit Online

CBS ""There were no Obama-themed designs on the list," she said. "Bush has stolen the political spotlight, just like Sarah Palin did the week before when she re-surfaced with crib notes written in her palm." "

Nice. Obama Meets With Dalai Lama; Makes Him Leave Through Garbage Exit

Gateway Pundit "The Tibetan spiritual leader, who was also denied a meeting in the Oval office, left via a side entrance where rubbish bags were piled up and The White House didn’t release photos of the meeting until several hours afterwards."

Time.com Links Austin Suicide Pilot To Tea Party Movement

Newsbusters "In an article about Thursday's apparent suicide by a pilot in Austin, Texas, the folks at Time.com made two seemingly intentional links to the Tea Party movement"...."You know a lot of conservatives and/or Tea Party members extolling the virtues of communism while bashing capitalism? No...I don't either. Shame on Time for doing this. " The connections are totally gratuitous; one more reason to not trust the established press.

Mutual Loathing Society

George Will "Yet Sarah Palin, who with 17 months remaining in her single term as Alaska's governor quit the only serious office she has ever held, is obsessively discussed as a possible candidate in 2012. Why? She is not going to be president and will not be the Republican nominee unless the party wants to lose at least 44 states."

Morning Bell: The Mount Vernon Statement

Heritage "We recommit ourselves to the ideas of the American Founding. Through the Constitution, the Founders created an enduring framework of limited government based on the rule of law. They sought to secure national independence, provide for economic opportunity, establish true religious liberty and maintain a flourishing society of republican self-government." Quoted from an article by Edwin J. Feulner, President of The Heritage Foundation.

Clinton Plotting Tea Party Counterattack

BigGovernment "They plan to identify 7-8 national figures active in the tea party movement and engage in deep opposition research on them. If possible, they will identify one or two they can perhaps ‘turn’, either with money or threats, to create a mole in the movement. The others will be subjected to a full-on smear campaign. (Has MSNBC already been notified?)" And here: American Thinker

On Teaching Christianity

InsideHigherEd "That’s how I view my teaching of the Christian tradition — helping my students to take an inventory. They can’t go back in time and decide not to have received some form of Christian inheritance, in all the varied ways they have received it, but I would hope that after taking my class they are in a better position to decide what to do with it."

Middle East Terror and Double Standards

Pajamas Media "Given the already prevailing anti-Israeli climate, it is no surprise that this time the Human Rights Council answered back with the 574-page Goldstone Report accusing Israel of war crimes, a document that has been denounced as “a shoddy piece of work, unworthy of serious consideration by people of good will,” and as “an abominable travesty of justice.” "

Kill or Capture?

Andrew C. McCarthy "My hesitancy about Obama on Pakistan was rooted in the fact that I didn’t believe him. Leftists are always big on fighting the war we’re not in as an excuse for undermining the war we are in. I thought Obama was flexing his rhetorical muscles on Pakistan to blunt his derelictions on Iraq. I couldn’t be more pleasantly surprised to be wrong. As president, he has done what he said he would do in Pakistan, and he has gotten effective cooperation from the wily Pakistanis, which is no mean feat." Emphasis added.
