STELLA PAUL: OBAMA HURT MY FEELINGS WHEN HE DESTROYED THE CONSTITUTION

http://www.americanthinker.com/2012/09/obama_hurt_my_feelings_when_he_destroyed_the_constitution.html No, you weren’t dreaming when you read the statement of the U.S. Embassy in Cairo, as homicidal mobs raged outside its doors on 9/11. “The Embassy of the United States in Cairo condemns the continuing efforts by misguided individuals to hurt the religious feelings of Muslims – as we condemn efforts to offend believers […]

DAVID GOLDMAN: LIVING WITHOUT SOLUTIONS IN SAMARIA

http://www.atimes.com/atimes/Middle_East/NI25Ak01.html SAMARIA – I am in Samaria, the northern half of the West Bank, inside a cement shed in a drab industrial park loaded with high-tech equipment, hearing a harangue by a fiftyish fellow wearing a knit skullcap , a torn t-shirt, shorts and sandals. His name is Amichai Lourie, and he points to a […]

JED BABBIN: AS THE WORLD BURNS…YEAR FOUR OF THE OBAMA SOAP OPERA

http://spectator.org/archives/2012/09/24/as-the-world-burns For the last week, the election debate has been focused on the existential question of how much impact will result from Mitt Romney’s “47%” remark. The campaign suffers from a malaise that can only be cured by a real crisis such as Obama replacing Joe Biden with Paris Hilton or Dave Letterman. In that […]

FRANK GAFFNEY: TEAM OBAMA’S MENDACITY

http://www.centerforsecuritypolicy.org/p19096.xml For the last two weeks, the American people have been encouraged by Team Obama – both official spokesmen for the administration, its champions in the press and other partisans – to believe a number of national security calumnies that can only be described as surrealistically epic lies and dangerous deceptions. Far more than the […]

Will Geert Wilders Be Denied a Visa to Australia? Posted By Bruce Bawer

http://frontpagemag.com/2012/bruce-bawer/will-geert-wilders-be-denied-visa-to-australia/print/ It’s been hard to keep track of all the rioting that’s taken place around the world lately, purportedly in response to the film The Innocence of Muslims, so it would be thoroughly understandable if you missed the news about the protests in Sydney on Saturday, September 15, at which participants carried signs reading “Behead […]

Did Obama Know the Embassy Attacks Were Coming? Posted By Daniel Greenfield

http://frontpagemag.com/2012/daniel-greenfield/did-obama-know-the-embassy-attacks-were-coming/print/ While the White House and its still media allies are still mumbling about an offensive video, it is quite clear that the Mohammed movie was never anything but a distraction used by the Islamists to set the stage and by the Obama administration to avoid admitting that the attacks were not spontaneous protests, but […]

GORDON CROVITZ: THE WHITE HOUSE GOES MUM ON FREE SPEECH

http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10000872396390444165804578012904284534228.html?mod=WSJ_Opinion_BelowLEFTSecond
The White House Goes Mum on Free Speech
While France stands up for a basic right, the Obama administration sits on its hands.

When Rudy Giuliani was mayor of New York, he tried to cut off taxpayer funding for a museum showing a work entitled “The Holy Virgin Mary,” featuring an image of the Madonna smeared with elephant dung, surrounded by cutout porn photos of female genitalia. Mr. Giuliani said the museum didn’t have a “right to government subsidy for desecrating somebody else’s religion.” Hillary Clinton, then a Senate candidate, defended the right to show the artwork: “Our feelings of being offended should not lead to the penalizing and shutting down of an entire museum.”

Mr. Giuliani, who always acknowledged the artist’s First Amendment right while questioning the public funding, was a censorship softie compared with Mrs. Clinton today. Her State Department’s response to a movie trailer tied to Islamic mob violence and organized terrorism has been censorship and a global apology campaign.

The movie “Innocence of Muslims,” apparently made by a Coptic Christian in the U.S., mocks Muhammad, the Islamic prophet, but it exists publicly only as a 14-minute trailer on YouTube. Digital technology can spread mischief, but it was only when an Islamist television show in Egypt aired excerpts that the video got widespread attention. The movie, if there is one, would never have gotten distribution in theaters, with its amateurish filming and clumsily dubbed voices.

The U.S. government attributed enormous power to these 14 minutes of video. The White House press spokesman insisted that the attacks in Egypt, Libya and some 20 other countries were a “response not to United States policy, and not to, obviously, the administration, not to the American people,” but “to a video, a film we have judged to be reprehensible and disgusting.” The White House later backtracked, blaming organized terrorists for killing the U.S. ambassador in Libya and three other Americans.

GOOD FOR PAUL RYAN: HE DIDN’T PANDER TO AARP

http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10000872396390444813104578014243421799324.html?mod=WSJ_Opinion_LEADTop

The headlines this weekend were all about the boos Paul Ryan elicited on Friday when he addressed the AARP, the self-styled seniors’ lobby. The herd of independent media minds missed the real story, which is that the Republican Vice Presidential nominee went into the heart of the entitlement culture, told some hard truths, and even won applause for doing so.

Mr. Ryan deserves credit merely for showing up at an organization that portrays itself as nonpartisan but whose leadership is dominated by long-time liberals who consistently pursue the Democratic Party’s entitlement agenda. On Friday, our Kimberley Strassel reported on the long email trail showing how AARP officials served as an arm of the White House in promoting ObamaCare.

AARP CEO Barry Rand used his opening remarks to defend President Obama’s health-care bill, including its accounting trick of taking $716 billion from Medicare to make a new entitlement appear to save money. He then turned the event over to President Obama, who via satellite attacked Mitt Romney and Mr. Ryan for wanting to deny medical care to seniors.
