BEN SHAPIRO: THE ANTI-SEMITES OF OWS

The Anti-Semites of Occupy Wall Street Posted By Ben Shapiro URL to article: http://frontpagemag.com/2011/10/26/the-anti-semites-of-occupy-wall-street/ There is a disturbing undercurrent to the current Occupy Wall Street movement.  It isn’t merely its passionate denunciations of capitalism and excuses for corporatism.  It isn’t merely its perverse love for a president who has received more Wall Street money than […]

DANIEL GREENFIELD: INSURGENT OR RESURGENT INCUMBENT?

http://sultanknish.blogspot.com/

Obama’s team is nothing if not creative. After running for his first term as a force of change, he’s off and running for his second term as… the force of change. Don’t like the last change, this will be the change from that change to a whole other change.

“We Can’t Wait” oddly echoes with Obama’s old slogan, “We Are The Ones We Have Been Waiting For.” Now after having waited for three for ourselves… we can’t wait for another four years of the same thing. The problem with waiting for ourselves while waiting to vote again for the man who got us into this mess is that it means we’ll be waiting a long time.

But “We Can’t Wait” echoes another slogan that the Obama team was extremely familiar with, the left’s “We Can’t Wait To Drive the Bush Regime Out.” This time around Obama might have called it, “We Can’t Wait to Drive Boehner Out”, but it’s a slogan that would have confused most people.

DAVID MALPASS: HOW THE EUROZONE CAN RESTORE CONFIDENCE

Investors are looking for a home for trillions in idle Federal Reserve-generated dollars, and a little reform in Europe might attract them.
The world is waiting anxiously for Europe to use a bazooka on its debt problems—i.e., to make such a strong financial commitment to European banks and bonds that they become investable again, unfreezing markets.

But Europe probably won’t go that far in this week’s summits. This leaves in place a costly slow-motion bailout and a deepening recession.

STATE DEPT. BUYS $70,000 WORTH OF OBAMA’S BOOKS..Jim McElhatton

http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2011/oct/25/state-department-buys-70000-worth-obama-memoir/ The State Department has bought more than $70,000 worth of books authored by President Obama, sending out copies as Christmas gratuities and stocking “key libraries” around the world with “Dreams from My Father” more than a decade after its release.

IBD: THERE’S PERRY’S PLAN AND THEN THERE’S ROMNEY

http://www.investors.com/NewsAndAnalysis/Article.aspx?id=589336&p=1

Fiscal Policy: This is a time for big ideas that take some political risk. Rick Perry’s flat-tax solution largely fits that bill, and so do the proposals from most others in the GOP field. Then there’s Romney.

Perry this week finally unveiled the sort of detailed economic plan that, in a well-planned campaign, he would’ve had ready a couple of months ago. So it may be too late to help him much. But it’s never too late to inject good ideas into the political mix. Perry’s plan isn’t perfect, but it would be a huge improvement over the laws in place now……GO TO SITE

MELANIE PHILLIPS: “MODERATE” SARI NUSSEIBEH UNMASKED

True face of moderate leaders

http://melaniephillips.com/true-face-of-moderate-leaders

For many years, Professor Sari Nusseibeh has been regarded as the epitome of Palestinian moderation. The urbane president of al Quds university in east Jerusalem, he has been regarded as a “two-state solution” moderate. His actual advocacy of a one-state solution and the swallowing up of Israel has been unaccountably ignored.

Yet now he has let down his guard to reveal more starkly what lies beneath this polished veneer. Considering the Israeli government’s requirement that the Palestinians must acknowledge Israel as a Jewish state, Nusseibeh declared in an al Jazeera article (in English on its website) that this was inherently “problematic” because of its “legal, religious, historical and social implications”.

Those problematic implications are that, for Nusseibeh, a Jewish state would necessarily either be a theocracy or practise apartheid — stripping Israeli Arabs of their civic rights and ethnically cleansing them from Israel, on the basis that in a Jewish state the only people with civic rights would be Jews.
