Pothole Pragmatism http://www.nationalreview.com/articles/print/280788 Richmond, Va. — Elsewhere, in swing states such as Wisconsin and Ohio, Republican governors are under siege. Union heavies have swarmed capitol rotundas, schoolteachers are marching in the streets, and businesses are struggling. And as the recession continues, poll numbers are plummeting for GOP executives. But here in Virginia, a purple state […]

Martin McGuinness is a convicted terrorist yet he could be elected Ireland’s new presidentThe Republic of Ireland elects its president this week, but the choice of candidates is alarmingly poor.

MARY THERESE WINIFRED ROBINSON WHO WAS LA PRESIDENTA OF IRELAND (1990-97)THEN UN HIGH COMMISSIONER FOR HUMAN RIGHTS (1997-2002)…McGUINESS IS A NASTY SOB AND CONVICTED TERRORIST BUT ROBINSON IS A WITCH WITH NO CONVICTION OTHER THAN UNBRIDLED HATRED FOR AMERICA AND ISRAEL….RSK
In September, Gay Byrne, Ireland’s most famous broadcaster, was asked what it was like to interview Gerry Adams and Martin McGuinness. “You get nowhere with them,” he said, “because they lie. They lie all the time.”

“Palestine, the cynical project of Pan-Arabist and Pan-Islamist thugs, is the great obsession of the left. Because if there’s one thing that the Middle East doesn’t have enough of, it’s totalitarian regimes built on Arab and Islamist identity. And the one thing it has too much of is democratic state with a non-Arab and non-Muslim minority. And that one thing is what they are committed to destroying.”
The left’s worst crime in the Middle East has been its support for the region’s Arab-Muslim majority at the expense of its minorities. It has supported the majority’s terrorism, atrocities, ethnic cleansing and repression of the region’s minorities. Very rarely has it raised a voice in their support, and when it has done so, it was in muted tones completely different from their vigorous defenses of the nationalism of the Arab Muslim majority.
The left is obsessed with the Arab Spring, which rewards the ambitions of Arabist and Islamist activists at the expense of Coptic, African and other minorities. It is dementedly fixated on statehood for the Arab Muslims of Israel, (better known by their local Palestinian brand), but has little to say about the Kurds in Turkey or the Azeri in Iran. The million Jewish refugees and the vanishing Christians of the region never come up in conversation. They certainly don’t get their own protest rallies or flotillas.
http://www.americanthinker.com/2011/10/captain_america_abandons_the_entire_middle_east.html I doubt that President Obama loves the name “Captain America,” but that’s the job he was elected to do in 2008. National security is the president’s first job. But Obama has been by far the most catastrophic captain of the ship of state in American history in every conceivable way. The last two weeks […]
http://www.americanthinker.com/2011/10/reading_the_real_quran.html Last Friday I was on the Sean Hannity Show, debating Muslim activist Michael Ghouse on the future of Libya. Debating Michael Ghouse is like shooting kuffar in a barrel. But Friday night, Ghouse presented me with an enormous Qur’an, courtesy of the Muslim Brotherhood-tied Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR): The Message of the Qur’an, […]

From the moment the British, French and Americans went to war in Libya to depose Col Gaddafy in order to ‘liberate’ the Libyans from a tyrannical and oppressive regime, I warned that Messrs Cameron, Sarkozy and Obama were all too likely to bring to power something that […]

MIT’s Richard Lindzen & Physicist David Douglass: Muller’s findings of warming are ‘nothing remarkable’ — BEST study does not alter Climategate’s ‘serious breaches of ethics’
Lindzen & Douglass slam media for ‘completely misrepresenting Climategate’: Scandal revealed ‘explicit evidence of the manipulation of proxy records used in paleoclimate reconstructions, suppression of other viewpoints, manipulation of IPCC process, and intimidation of journal editors were all evidence of serious breaches of ethics. Muller’s findings hardly alters these findings’
Richard Lindzen has given Climate Depot permission to publish this analysis.
The below commentary was written by MIT’s Dr. Richard S. Lindzen, an Alfred P. Sloan Professor of Atmospheric Sciences and and Dr. David H. Douglass, Professor of Physics at the University of Rochester
http://washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/op-eds/2011/10/scientific-case-man-made-climate-change-dead OpEd Contributor Many of the proponents of man-made global warming are now claiming that climate change is worse than they predicted. According to an Oct. 18, 2011, Daily Climate article, global warming activists claim that the “evidence builds that scientists underplay climate impacts,” and “if anything, global climate disruption is likely to be significantly […]
