URGENT: VFW DISSOLVES PAC BOARD!

Blackfive  "This, after the Ladies Auxilery(sic) withdrew all funding support for the PAC (which, I'm told, is a good chunk of it) as well as cries from CO, FL, NY, TX and likely others to do something about the endorsements.
"WHY, you may ask?
"Take a gander- would you want to say your group endorsed THIS candidate?"...

Thomas Sowell; Multiculturalism repudiated

The Multicultural Cult  "The actual direct experience of the people who complain about the consequences of these social experiments is often dismissed as mere biased "perceptions" or "stereotypes," if not outright "racism." But some of the strongest complaints have come from middle-class blacks who have fled ghetto life, only to have the government transplant ghetto life back into their midst."

The Multicultural Cult: Part II   "The multicultural dogma is that we are to "celebrate" all cultures, not change them. In other words, people who lag educationally or economically are to keep on doing what they have been doing -- but somehow have better results in the future than in the past. And, if they don't have better results in the future, it is society's fault."

More on this from Roger L. Simon: Merkel and Wilders: fighting the good fight against multiculturalism   "I know — it’s hard for so-called “progressives” to admit the obvious, but at least the likes of Geert Wilders and, now, Angela Merkel can. Nevertheless, we live in a culture where reporters at the New York Times spend more time searching for non-existent racists at Tea Parties than they do the tentacles of Shariah finance in the U.S. and executives of NOW spend more time worrying about Christine O’Donnell than they do clitoredectomies, stonings, or honor killings."

Democrats Pin Hopes on Obama

Heritage  "In fact, Mr. Obama may be the least of his party's problems right now. He remains decidedly more popular than his party's congressional leaders, individually or collectively. Beyond that, many of the Democratic Party's current political woes can be traced to the tactics and decisions of its congressional wing."

‘Culture of Poverty’ Makes a Comeback

Heritage   "“I study inequality, and the dominant focus is on structures of poverty,” he said. But he added that the reason a neighborhood turns into a “poverty trap” is also related to a common perception of the way people in a community act and think. When people see graffiti and garbage, do they find it acceptable or see serious disorder? Do they respect the legal system or have a high level of “moral cynicism,” believing that “laws were made to be broken”? "

Union shill-in-chief: The empire of right-wing special interests is striking back

Hot Air  "From yesterday’s mega-rally in Ohio, the clip doesn’t capture it but this tool is now warning about Republican fearmongering in virtually the same breath as he’s doing his heavy-breathing routine about shadowy money flowing in from conservative PACs. I wonder if the hypocrisy of that is something he’s aware of and happy to wallow in or if his own messianic ego blinds him to it."
Rush Limbaugh: Obama looks 'demonic' in new photos "An American president has never had facial expressions like this," Limbaugh said. "At least we've never seen photos of an American president with facial expressions like this."

Is it better to vote out of fear, or is it better to vote out of love?
"Do you realize the election is just 15 days away? I'd rather see every election be like this one - where people are scared for their lives and driven to the polls to do something about it - then one where people are driven to the polls based on the idolization of a false prophet."   Neal Boortz

UPDATED: Geert Wilders Debates Jeb Cohen: Should Islam in the Netherlands Be Called To a Halt? (Video)

"I think we should use that type of debate for the 2012 Presidential race. Can you see Obama choking up when someone actually confronts him face to face like Wilders was doing?"

BREAKING: Prosecutors of Dutch MP Geert Wilders Ask Court To Acquit on All Charges  "In a surprising twist, the prosecution in the trial of Dutch MP Geert Wilders asked for complete acquittal today. With this, it strongly condemned the decision of a higher court to prosecute Wilders."........
"Wilders had been charged with the following:"


"•Group defamation (article 137c of the Dutch Criminal Code).
•Inciting hatred against people, i.e. Muslims, on account of their religion (article 137 of the Dutch Criminal Code).
•Inciting discrimination against people, i.e. Muslims, on account of their religion (article 137d of the Dutch Criminal Code).
•Inciting hatred against people, i.e. non-western ethnic minorities and/or Moroccans, on account of their race (article 137d of the Dutch Criminal Code).
•Inciting discrimination against people, i.e. non-western ethnic minorities and/or Moroccans, on account of their race (article 137d of the Dutch Criminal Code)."

Who Says Islam Is Totalitarian?    "There are no parliaments or representative assemblies of any kind, no councils or communes, no chambers of nobility or estates, no municipalities in the history of Islam; nothing but the sovereign power, to which the subject owed complete and unwavering obedience as a religious duty imposed by the Holy Law. . . . For the last thousand years, the political thinking of Islam has been dominated by such maxims as “tyranny is better than anarchy,” and “whose power is established, obedience to him is incumbent.”"  Andrew C. McCarthy, quoting Bernard Lewis

If the Chilean Mine Had Been in Colorado

American Thinker   "I saw in the president and people of Chile the highest of human instincts, a willingness to come together and help their fellow countrymen in a time of acute need.
"It is an instinct that is shared by the citizens of the United States, an innate quality imbedded in the DNA of every American. Or is it? What if Copiopo was located on the western slope of Colorado? Would the story have played out in the same manner? Would the spirit of the American citizen have been dampened by the wet blankets of bureaucracy and political correctness?
"Here-to-with, a hypothetical chronology...."

How to Turn a Recession into a Depression

Victor Davis Hanson  "It is hard for a president to turn a recession into a long-term downturn in the United States, given the inherent resiliency of private enterprise and America’s open and free markets. But if you were to try, you might do something like the following.
"First, propose all sorts of new taxes. Float trial balloons about even more on the horizon. Subordinates should whisper about a VAT/national sales tax."....

Actors Called to Play 'Young People' at Obama Town Hall.

Human Events  "When actors (or wanna be actors answering the casting call) stand up to give pre-screened and pre-selected questions to the President in what is billed as a town hall representing a diversity of opinions, will the media be as amused and as unrelenting in letting the public know of the fraud being committed as they were in the NSRC ad ?
"After all, a casting call is a call for actors placed by people who make up stories to entertain the public."

Obama town hall gets Hollywood treatment  (October 13th) "The invitation to participate in the event was posted on the sponsor's web sites and through social media. But it was Back Stage, which bills itself as an online resource for actors, models and other performers, that stirred up controversy when it posted a casting call notice for the same event.
"Back Stage, which has helped to fill roles for "reality-based projects," said it was seeking "males and females, 18+" for "A Conversation With President Obama."
"This tactic raised eyebrows and drew criticism leaving the White House to distance itself from the seat filling process."

SUPREME COURT NOTEBOOK: State of Union no-show

WaPo  "The president will begin a sentence with an invocation of the country's greatness, Alito said. If justices don't jump up and applaud, "you look very unpatriotic," he said.
"But, Alito continued, then the president may finish the thought by adding "because we're conducting a surge in Iraq or because we're enacting health care reform." Justices aren't supposed to react to statements about policy or politics." Via  Volokh Conspiracy
