Blame Americans First/ Democrats lose patience with democracy.

Weekly Standard "What’s the clearest sign the Obama agenda is in trouble? That’s easy: the string of jeremiads in the pages of the New York Times, Washington Post, and other outlets of fashionable opinion. Unable to tout the administration’s successes, and worried about Republican ascendancy, liberals have assigned responsibility for the mess they’re in neither to their program nor to their methods but to larger, structural faults in American politics and society. Beginning with you." Matthew Continetti

The Tragic Truth of War

Victor Davis Hanson "When an enemy finally gives up, it is for a combination of reasons — material losses, economic hardship, loss of territory, erosion of civilian morale, fright, mental exhaustion, internal strife. But we forget that central to a concession of defeat is often the loss of the nation’s soldiers — or even the threat of such deaths."

"Ron Paul wins CPAC straw poll.. if that's the final result .. I WILL NEVER VOTE FOR HIM "

Infidel Bloggers "His election if such a calamity ocurred would be the rebirth of progressivism just as Obama's absurd excesses have given life to everything to their right."

Back&Forth Dept.: Islam envoy retreats on terror talk

Politico "The comments touched off criticism from conservative commentators, who questioned whether someone who held those views should represent the United States in the Muslim world"

The War on Truth

Bruce Walker, AT "Has Obama ever seriously searched for truth? His lifelong chums are a gaggle of pseudo-thinkers and strong-arm operatives who float through college into jobs unconnected with honor. He reads us his soul off a teleprompter whose digitized letters conform to polling data. The terrifying numbers which his surreal spending has created mean nothing to Obama. The threats to our nation are real to him only as it affects his polling numbers."

The Fraud of Progressive Nobility

American Thinker "Desire to help others is noble. It's noble, though, not in and of itself. It's noble only if it's likely to lead to helping others who truly need help. A desire to help others that prompts well-meaning people to address nonexistent problems isn't so much noble as it is misguided and, possibly, dangerous."

Christian-Americans Forbidden To Kill Murderer If He Is Muslim

Pajamas Media "If Billy Little is that concerned with not shedding Muslim blood: Faleh al-Maleki is a Muslim who also killed a Muslim; he rode right over his daughter with a two-ton jeep. Is her female Muslim blood cheaper than his male Muslim blood? And, let’s not forget: Al-Maleki attempted to murder another Muslim woman who was sheltering his daughter."

Re: A Dubai Victory

Max Boot "Funny how no one seriously objects when U.S. Predators carry out similar hits on al-Qaeda operatives but the whole world is in uproar when the Israelis target members of Hamas — an organization that is morally indistinguishable from al-Qaeda."

Sharia Compliant Law Enforcement in Ohio Confirms Persection of Rifqa Bary Pastor, Brian Williams

Atlas Shrugs "Rifqa Bary, a 17-year-old from a Muslim family, disappeared from her home in New Albany in suburban Columbus in July and was discovered in Orlando, Fla., a few weeks later living with a minister and his wife, whom she had met on Facebook. The girl claimed she could be harmed or killed for converting to Christianity, a charge her parents, immigrants from Sri Lanka, have denied."

Issa Releases Video Of Obama And ACORN

Sweetness&Light "The ranking member of the House Government Reform and Oversight Committee released video today showing then-candidate Obama praising the work of ACORN. Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) unveiled the video during an appearance at the Conservative Political Action Committee (CPAC) today. Issa’s staff uncovered the footage during their ongoing probe into ACORN, who conservatives long made a boogeyman."

Bush Officials Cleared of Torture By Loony Obama Justice Department Officials

Instapundit ""What is clear is that there is no basis — and never was — for stripping these lawyers of their professional licenses, let alone criminally prosecuting them as many on the Left demanded." Of course, we have to remember with this radical administration that– Waterboarding terrorist killers is bad… while infanticide is good." Jim Hoft.

Gartenstein-Ross Defends Rashad Hussain

Max Boot "But as a general rule, I would suggest approaching these debates with some degree of humility and sympathy, and an understanding that a few statements often pulled out of context do not necessarily constitute the totality of a person." Perhaps this will balance out a previous article in the TW attacking Hussain.
