WES PRUDEN ON JUSTICE KENNEDY’S “DOMA”CILE

A BIGGER BED FOR THE HONEYMOON

No closet was big enough to hold Anthony Kennedy, but he came out of something dank and dark somewhere to liberate the gay caballeros. It certainly wasn’t the law. Not even the law could accommodate the purple emotional theatrics he poured into the Supreme Court’s decision rendering the Defense of Marriage Act null, void, mean, cruel, worthless and probably fattening.

When he wrote that Congress, in enacting the Defense of Marriage Act in 1996, acted with the deliberate intention to “disparage and injure” same-sex couples, he tried to put everyone who disagrees with him beyond the limits of human decency. No more Mr. Nice Guy in the wedding chapel.

Antonin Scalia’s dissent, written more in disbelief and incredulity than in the anger attributed to him by critics envious of his way with the language, decried his colleague’s “legalistic argle-bargle” (a particularly clever phrase). “By formally declaring anyone opposed to same-sex marriage an enemy of human decency, the majority arms well every challenger to a state law restricting marriage to its traditional definition.”

Mr. Scalia, in fact, sounds like a man who knows what’s coming next, and what’s next, if not tomorrow then not later than Tuesday, is the radical idea of group marriage, with an infinite number of husbands and wives. Lawyers are stitching their briefs now. There’s an old name for it and a new movement pushing it, with the requisite professors with Ph.Ds spouting esoteric and exotic (if not necessarily erotic) names for everything, and even a magazine deploying visions of a noisy new world with enough snoring, nagging and burping to satisfy satyr or sinner.

DANIEL GREENFIELD: BIKE LANES TO NOWHERE

http://sultanknish.blogspot.com/ The streets of Manhattan are full of smiling white yuppies riding their Citibank bikes, blue lights flashing as they sail through midtown traffic. But the great rack of bike share bikes planted next to a housing project is filled with its cargo of blue vehicles. No one is checking them out here. Instead black […]

MY SAY: SELECTIVE OUTRAGE

The liberal thought police have their knickers in a knot over remarks made by Paula Deen.

The 66-year-old Savannah kitchen celebrity has been swamped in controversy since court documents filed this week revealed Deen told an attorney questioning her under oath last month that she has used the N-word. “Yes, of course,” Deen said, though she added, “It’s been a very long time.”

I did not hear a peep from the Obamathons about the vulgarity, violence, misogyny, and racism spouted by “Rapper Common” who was feted and celebrated by Emperor Barack and Empress Michelle at the White House in 2011. In 2012 they invited “PSY”‘ (psychotic?) who once performed a song in South Korea saying U.S. troops and their families should be slowly tortured and killed.

KIMBERLEY STRASSEL: OBAMA’S KEYSTONE DEBACLE

http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424127887323419604578571872194739406.html?mod=opinion_newsreel President Obama had plenty of reasons to deliver his grandiose climate speech on Tuesday, among them a desire to change the subject. But the better motive was his urgent need to quell a growing revolt among his grass roots. The backlash has centered on climate, and nowhere has it been more amusingly illustrated than […]

THE TAXMAN CAME FOR 100% OF TEA PARTY GROUPS: DANIEL GREENFIELD

http://frontpagemag.com/2013/dgreenfield/100-of-tea-party-groups-targeted-by-the-irs/print/

Looks like the Taxman knew a natural enemy when it saw one.

Refuting Democratic suggestions that progressive groups were also swept up in the IRS probe of the tax status of Tea Party organizations, the Treasury Department’s inspector general has revealed that just six progressive groups were targeted compared to 292 conservative groups.

In a letter to congressional Democrats, the inspector general also said that 100 percent of Tea Party groups seeking special tax status were put under IRS review, while only 30 percent of the progressive groups felt the same pressure.

The Wednesday letter to the top Democrat on the House Ways and Means Committee punched a huge hole in Democratic claims that progressive groups were targeted as much as the Tea Party groups from May 2010-May 2012, the height of the Tea Party movement.

The letter from the Treasury Department Inspector General for Tax Administration revealed that there just weren’t many progressive groups who even sought special tax exempt status. A total of 20 sought it, and six were probed. All 292 Tea Party groups, meanwhile, were part of the IRS witchhunt.

While conservative groups were term-targeted, liberal groups were not. If they were hit, it was as collateral damage. Switch around the politics and if this had happened under Bush, there would be screams of bloody murder, eight books, three movies and impeachment proceedings.

“Our audit did not find evidence that the IRS used the ‘progressives’ identifier as selection criteria for potential political cases between May 2010 and May 2012,” [Treasury Inspector General for Tax Adminstration Russell] George wrote in the letter obtained by The Hill.

The inspector general also stressed that 100 percent of the groups with “Tea Party,” “patriots” and “9/12” in their name were flagged for extra attention.

THE MORALITY OF OCCUPATION- A LESSON FOR ISRAEL: CHARLES BYBELEZER

http://frontpagemag.com/2013/charles-bybelezer/the-morality-of-occupation/print/ The occupation of West Germany by the United States, Great Britain and France lasted a full decade, whereas East Germany essentially remained a Soviet satellite throughout the Cold War. Only in 1990, with the momentous fall of the Berlin Wall and reunification of the country on October 3rd of that year, did the occupation […]

Islam, Rape and Theology: Bruce Bawer

http://frontpagemag.com/2013/bruce-bawer/islam-rape-and-theology/ Five days before 9/11, a famous Norwegian social anthropologist (and Norway may well be the only nation on Earth where there is such a thing as a famous social anthropologist) instructed her countrywomen that the way to bring down the high number of rapes – most of which, even way back then, were already […]
