Let's look in on the EPA, shall we?

Your tax dollars at work: EPA now funding propaganda videos telling kids juiceboxes are destroying the planet  "Despite the fact that Leonard’s work is quite fairly described as dishonest, Leonard continues to rack up accolades and The Story of Stuff and her new PBS videos are likely coming to a classroom near you. Aside from the recent New York Times profile, Leonard has also been declared a “Hero of the Environment” by Time magazine."

Climategate: Barack Obama's rule by EPA decree is a coup d'etat against Congress, made in Britain  "And what is the justification for this undemocratic action? The allegedly imminent threat from “Anthropogenic Global Warming”. There is always a supposed threat, when tyrants take the stage. The President of the United States has just reduced his moral authority to the level of any Third World dictator heading a “Government of National Emergency”. Fortunately, the world’s leading democracy, which he is trying to subvert, has guarantees of liberty so deeply embedded in its Constitution that US citizens are well placed to fight back."   (Dec, 2009)

You won't believe this article on Dust "pollution."  "Fine Dust Pollution Tops Drunk Driving as a Killer in California ."
 "To kill California's global warming law, as backers of this November's Proposition 23 want to do, is not going to kill jobs. It's going to kill people." !

Free speech under attack on college campuses (Video)

Washington Examiner "Greg Lukianoff, in a (poorly-lit) interview with Reason.TV’s Ted Balaker, runs down the list of ridiculously chilling instances where college administrators targeted the individual rights of their own students — from kicking out a student who made a satirical collage to writing up a student who objected to disclosing her sexual preferences."

U.S. Can't Build Like It Used To

Jonah Goldberg  "It took 410 days to build the Empire State Building, four years to erect the Golden Gate Bridge. The Pentagon took a year and a half, the Alaska Highway just nine months. These days it takes longer to build an overpass."....
"Meanwhile, the "race" to rebuild the World Trade Center as some kind of remorse theme park approaches its second decade."

Extreme Girls: All the President's Radical Women

Michelle Malkin "We are in the era of Democratic Extreme Girls -- Big Nanny handmaidens who demand control of your children, your health care, your energy use, your pocketbook and your news. And that's just for starters. If you think President Obama will move to the center after the midterms, think again."

White House Stands by Call for Tax Hike on Wealthy

Fox News  "The White House persistently accuses Republicans of holding the middle class "hostage" by insisting on an across-the-board extension.
"But Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, said Sunday that Democrats are to blame for the uncertainty injected into the business world by not tackling the issue before the election."

The president’s apologists look for scapegoats

Weekly Standard    "...A young community-organizer-cum-seminar-leader, having led a sheltered political life in deep blue America, is swept into office on the strength of a financial collapse weeks before the election plus the emotional need for a biracial redeemer. He misreads the country, the times, and his mandate, pushes through plans to turn the country into a social democracy at the exact moment that model is proving unworkable, governs in every way against the will of the people, and proves himself to be a bad politician, a coalition-destroyer, a fish out of water, and over his head. This simple line explains things much better than the convoluted tales that you keep coming up with. But it’s the one thought you cannot abide." Noemie Emery

'Fault Lines'   "In the Weekly Standard, Noemie Emery has produced an article so excellent and full of insight that it seems wrong to even try and excerpt. I urge you to read every word about Obama's apologists and how they keep trying to scapegoat the opposition." Clarice Feldman in American Thinker

Troops chafe at restrictive rules of engagement, talks with Taliban

Washington Examiner  "Word had come down the morning Brooks spoke to this reporter that watch towers surrounding the base were going to be dismantled because Afghan village elders, some sympathetic to the Taliban, complained they were invading their village privacy. "We have to take down our towers because it offends them and now the Taliban can set up mortars and we can't see them," Brooks added, with disgust."


Shift in Momentum in Afghanistan  "I would caution against reading too much into any of this. It’s still early days, the full complement of surge forces having arrived in Afghanistan only last month. There is much hard fighting ahead, and many setbacks are certain. But at least there is now a sense that the war may be moving, however haltingly and slowly, in the right direction."  Max Boot.

More Bad News for Obamacare/ Repeal continues to gain support.

Weekly Standard  "Complementing this, the new Rasmussen poll of likely voters shows strong support for repeal. Rasmussen shows that Americans favor repeal by a margin of 15 points (55 to 40 percent), independents favor repeal by 18 points (57 to 39 percent), and seniors favor repeal by 24 points (59 to 35 percent)."

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."
