Wikileaks: Enemies of the State

Big Hollywood "Look, we don’t need him to tell us that war sucks. No one wants to see our troops or innocent civilians dead. But we fight to eradicate an evil- and in this case it’s an evil that this douchebag is helping. Remember that the U.S. doesn’t send suicide bombers into crowded restaurants, or behead journalists, or fly planes into buildings. We are waging a war against scum – and yet Julie chooses to thwart us instead.
"It makes me wonder that if Julie had secret documents that harmed our enemies – would he share those?"

Arizona Boycott Flops, Stats Show

Le·gal In·sur·rec·tion "Arizona's tourism industry has a target on its back, but the widespread boycotts over the state's immigration law might not be hitting the mark. Recent data compiled by a market research group show hotel bookings across the state -- as well as in tourism hot spots Phoenix and Scottsdale -- have been on the rise the past two months. The numbers could dispel warnings from local officials that Arizona stands to lose a fortune and dampen the chances that cities and organizations will be able to compel the state to reverse its immigration law by choking its economy with a sanctions-style business boycott."

Obama's Terror Pal Rashid Khalidi Calls for Funding for Next Jihad War Convoy Flotilla, "Audacity of Hope"

Atlas Shrugs  “Rashid Khalidi... reportedly has signed an appeal for funds to outfit a ship–to be named The Audacity of Hope–that will challenge the Israeli blockade of Gaza in September or October."....
"Just before Khalidi moved to Columbia, at a dinner honoring Khalidi, Obama saluted the rabidly anti-Israel professor for “offer[ing] constant reminders to me of my own blind spots and my own biases.” "

From Rev. Wright to the Sherrod Affair

Victor Davis Hanson "Does anyone grasp that this obsession with racial identity in an increasingly multiracial society is outright insanity, both politically and culturally? It is not as if we should be so bored with war, recession, national security leaks, and a world on the brink to turn to race relations.
"Let me go back a few months, and elaborate how we got here in just 18 months to national hysteria that now breaks out at any given moment over any given otherwise minor incident."

 Race Bait Reality Check "Last week, Obama surrogates at the National Association to Agitate Colored People (NAACP) took over the effort to stir that pot. The NAACP calculus is simple: If they can coerce the Tea Party into defending itself against spurious charges of racism, they distract the movement from focusing on the abject failure of Barack Obama's policies."

The New Racial Mess   "The more the president appeals to his base in racial terms, the more his appointees identify themselves as members of a particular tribe, and the more political issues are framed by racial divisions, so all the more such racial obsession creates a backlash among the racially diverse American people.
"America has largely moved beyond race. Tragically, our president and a host of his supportive special interests have not."  Victor Davis Hanson


Eat the Rich, Exalt the Bum!

Jason Mattera "The left’s idea is trickle-down, too, though. It just uses the brute force of government to command where the trickling down is going to occur. There’s no such thing as bottom up prosperity. If you think there is, go to the very bottom of the bottom—your local smelly bum—and see how many jobs he can provide you and your family."

Democrats Target Free Speech in Senate Vote Tuesday

Human Events "Democrats are likely to desert the sinking DISCLOSE Act ship after Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) announced late Monday she would not vote for cloture on the bill which needs 60 votes to sidestep committee and go directly to the floor for debate."

THE MEXICAN INVASION

Neal Boortz "There are a few things you might find interesting about the Mexican invasion of the United States. First: The majority of Mexicans still in Mexico think that the Southwest United States belongs to them anyway. They believe that what now comprises Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and most of California was illegally taken from them. We, therefore, are the illegals. Not them. They even have a name for the brave Mexicans who cross the border to reclaim what is rightfully theirs. They are called Reconquistadores. "

Wikileaks, Insignificant

Max Boot "The Wikileakers should certainly be castigated for their cavalier treatment of classified documents, which may make our troops’ jobs harder and more dangerous. Their enablers in the mainstream media should also come in for censure. Whoever provided the information to them should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. But at the same time, we should recognize this disclosure for what it is: an unsuccessful attempt to damage the war effort. I doubt that anyone will remember this episode a year from now; what will count, as always, will be the outcome on the battlefield. Win, and a thousand missteps are forgiven; lose, and even the biggest tactical victories fade into insignificance."

No real bombshells in Wikileak Afghan docs "Anyone who gave that anti-American nutcase Julian Assange  - an Australian by birth - access to those documents should be arrested, tried, convicted, and sent to jail for a very long time. Untold damage is being done simply because no one knows what use of this information will be made by the enemy. What intelligence can they glean from its contents? Certainly the Taliban can figure out some of our weaknesses by reading through these documents. For that reason alone, Assange himself should be relentlessly pursued and arrested. It is highly likely that this irresponsible release will result in additional American casualties." American Thinker.

Racism Or Stupidity?

 Walter E. Williams   "What about black youngsters who hit the books and study after school instead of hitting the streets? Sometimes they are ridiculed as being incog-negro or acting white and the ridicule is often accompanied with life-threatening physical violence. Many blacks, particularly black males, have arrived at the devastating conclusion that academic excellence is a betrayal of their black identity.
"The pathology seen among a large segment of the black population is not likely to change because it's not seen for what it is. It has little to do with slavery, poverty and racial discrimination. Let's look at it."...

Obama Will Skip Boy Scout 100 Year Anniversary Jamboree – Will Appear on “The View” That Day Instead

Gateway Pundit "The last three presidents spoke in person at the jamboree."

Liberal ‘Journalists’ to Avoid Like the Plague

Human Events "Some so-called journalists are so leftist or progressive, they completely reinvent and reinterpret facts of various events—what’s worse, they often do it in a snarky, holier-than-thou way making it near impossible to watch without feeling nauseous.Whether you want to call them journalists or propagandists, one thing is for sure: these five should be avoided like the plague:"...

 Journolist’s success in setting the message "Now, I seriously doubt that Brian Williams ever participated in Journolist, and it’s not exactly a shock to see a network news anchor use a Time Magazine article as the basis of analysis on a major story. However, it does show that Klein successfully turned a Journolist strategy into media coverage on Palin, which makes his lack of honesty in sourcing those talking points even more of an issue."

Chris Wallace Shows How to Deal with a Bully Named Howard Dean "Modern American leftism is, at heart, a culture of thugs and bullies who simply assert what they wish to be true and never let facts get in the way whatever ridiculous argument they are trying to make. Which is why it’s such a pleasure to see an honest newsman like Chris Wallace stand up to them:"

Hearing on Arizona immigration law begins

WaPo "A federal judge pushed back Thursday against a contention by the Obama Justice Department that a tough new Arizona immigration law set to take effect next week would cause "irreparable harm" and intrude into federal immigration enforcement."
