The ‘War on Terror’ Is All About God Posted By Andrew Klavan URL to article: http://pajamasmedia.com/andrewklavan/2011/09/12/the-war-on-terror-is-all-about-god/Several years ago, I was speaking with a left-wing journalist who was rather hysterical about the subject of religion — although perhaps I repeat myself. In any case, she had heard that then-President George W. Bush prayed for guidance before […]

http://sultanknish.blogspot.com/ When Obama set off to visit the victims of Hurricane Irene, instead of visiting the American victims who had lost their homes and possessions– he headed off to Patterson, New Jersey. Patterson is known as ‘Patterstine’ for a reason, it’s home to the second largest Arab community after Dearborn, and while most of its […]
I LIKE BACHMANN BUT THIS HYPERBOLE IS RIDICULOUS AS ROGER SIMON SAYS:
“Bachmann, too, once flying high, has herself sunk to a mere 4% (tied with “None/No one”) since Perry entered the race. No wonder she’s sore at the Texan. She took after him, as did Santorum, during the Monday debate because some years ago Perry evidently tried by fiat to have high school girls vaccinated against cancer of the cervix. Perry admitted this approach was a mistake and this whole thing had apparently been rehashed ad infinitum by Kay Bailey Hutchison in her recent, ill-fated run against Perry for the Texas gubernatorial nomination, but never mind. To Bachmann and Santorum this attempt to prevent cancer, whether ill-founded or not, was a form of child molestation or something. The more they went on about this, the more rabid, and frankly scary, they sounded.”
“To have innocent little
12-year old girls be forced
to have a government injection through an executive order
is just flat out wrong.”

I’m offended.
If you watched tonight’s Republican debate, you saw Rick Perry defend his decision to mandate a vaccine for young girls through an executive order while he was governor of Texas. As a mother, I have raised three biological daughters and 23 foster daughters, and I believe taking away a parents right to direct the health care of their children is flat out wrong . It’s a violation of liberty and everything you and I stand for.

But if you learn from them, you’ll be a better person.” — Bill Clinton Nearly every time President Obama delivers a speech about the economy or jobs, something bad happens.

http://townhall.com/columnists/thomassowell/2011/09/13/back_to_the_future/print Those who are impressed by words seem to think that President Barack Obama made a great speech to Congress last week. But, when you look beyond the rhetoric, what did he say that was fundamentally different from what he has been saying and doing all along? Are we to continue doing the same kinds […]
Looking for omens among the winners http://www.prudenpolitics.com/index.php/pruden/notreg The race to fill the vacant House seat of disgraced Anthony Weiner in New York City, to be won or lost today, should hold no special significance. The Republicans aren’t particularly hard up for another vote in the House, and the district will disappear when district boundaries are […]
