DANIEL GREENFIELD: PALESTINE, LIES AND VIDEOTAPE

Palestine, Lies and Videotape Posted By Daniel Greenfield http://frontpagemag.com/2011/09/07/palestine-lies-and-videotape/print/   Peace. We go to war in the name of peace.

ROMNEY’S 59 ECONOMIC FLAVORS

http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424053111904537404576554692126810066.html?mod=WSJ_Opinion_LEADTop Mitt Romney rolled out a major chunk of his economic agenda yesterday, and we’ll say this for it: His ideas are better than President Obama’s.

DOROTHY RABINOWITZ ON SARAH PALIN

http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424053111904537404576554801795549350.html?mod=WSJ_Opinion_LEFTTopOpinion But there was something more significant in this stump outing. It revealed a Sarah Palin still energetic, still capable of drawing impassioned supporters, but one also unsettled and defensive, aggrieved and struggling to extract a hard, clear message out of too many cloudy talking points. A far cry from the happy warrior who took […]

MICHELLE MALKIN: OBAMA PROTECTS THE TEAMSTERS

How Obama Protects the Teamsters The president and Jimmy Hoffa help each other more than workers. http://www.nationalreview.com/articles/print/276427 Barack Obama and Jimmy Hoffa are like Tweedledum and Tweedledee, Lady Gaga and hype, the Jersey Shore cast and hairspray: inseparable. The president can no more disown the Teamsters Union’s leader than he can disown his own id. […]

OBAMA AND THE TEAMSTERS: CIVILITY FOR THEE BUT NOT FOR ME….RICH LOWRY

http://www.nationalreview.com/articles/print/276410 Columbia, S.C. — Gov. Rick Perry missed Monday’s Palmetto Freedom Forum — a spirited, nationally televised discussion of constitutional questions — because of the wildfires in Texas.

The plane I was on hurtled down the La Guardia runway and then suddenly came to a halt. The pilot directed the aircraft back to the gate noting there would not be any other flights that […]

ALYSSA LAPPEN: SHARIA LOBBY SHIFTS INTO FIFTH GEAR

http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/publications/id.10318/pub_detail.asp Sharia advocates desperately want to convince legislators and the public that Islamic law is plain vanilla — and totally nonthreatening to existing U.S. legal codes. Notwithstanding a nationwide Muslim Brotherhood-backed pro-sharia push, nothing could be further from the truth. “There are many unpleasant doctrines within Islam,” including its “repugnant” criminal code, honor killings, female […]
