Class

Something San Francisco mayors seem to have in spades. Yup. Even after becoming senators.

Too Important to Ignore

Anybody remember Rathergate? I mean, didn’t “fake but accurate” enter the lexicon? And yet CBS news is not only still in business, but still arrogantly shilling for al Qaeda.

I know. I should be shocked. Shocked!

Yes, and a Hearty F**k You from Buttle’s World, Too

Some moonbat at WaPo wrote a column which, even for the MSM, is beyond insulting. Nothing I could say to this guy who is wasting oxygen which could be breathed by sentient beings could come close to this classic dressing down by Uncle Jimbo.

(Caution: Language. Although the post title should have been a clue.)

KLO Makes Gun Joke, Gets Wrist Slapped

Poor KLO. She made what she thought was a New Yorker joke.

Those who know me will have an easy time guessing who sent her the first email in this post.

And, for the record, I think Reynolds has a good point.

Who knows what they’ll tax next?

A little tax revolt in Jolly Olde.

The Real Root Cause

Here’s someone who comes right out and says it.

So if this drama hits too close to home, perhaps offended Muslims should use this TV program as an emotional stimulus for change. To this point, the Muslim community has been able to completely avoid any real debate over Islamism. In fact, we see now a movement in England and the West to blame the West’s foreign policy as a root cause of terror rather than the real root cause — theocratic Islamist ideology.

Better yet, he’s a Muslim.

Go Zuhdi!

Name that President

A cowardly lothario with outsized appetites who, spurred by conniving woman, sells out his people to the point where many are killed by a heartless enemy. Yet, when pressed, he only says “Mistakes were made” and considers himself to be not only innocent, but the victim.

Yes, I can only be talking about this president.

I think.

Recursive Fauxtography

This is rich. First, we’re supposed to be taken in by a bad photoshop job. But the guy they ’shopped in came from yet another bit of famous fauxtography.

Multiculturalism Kills

Keep saying over and over again. For Britain, it’s probably too late.

The doctrine of multi-culturalism has alienated an entire generation of young Muslims and made them increasingly radical, a report has found.

In stark contrast with their parents, growing numbers sympathise with extreme teachings of Islam, with almost four in ten wanting to live under Sharia law in Britain.

I Will Not Submit

If, for no other reason, so I won’t have to give my daughter the Jihadist Pep Talk.

Is Hollywood Too Timid for the War?

An outstanding column in the LA Times by Andrew Klavan, a screenwriter and novelist. He notes that the war is curiously absent from the big screen, and offers some ideas as to why.

We cherish the religious tolerance of our society, after all. Plus, we’re less than a lifetime away from Jim Crow and, decent people that we are, we’re rightly humbled by the moral failures of our past. We’ve become uncomfortable to the point of paralysis when reality draws the limits of tolerance and survival demands pride in our traditions and ferocity in their defense. We can show homegrown terrorists in, say, “Déjà Vu” or real-life ones, as in “United 93,” but we can’t bring ourselves to fictionalize the larger idea: Islamo-fascism is an evil and American liberty a good.

Lesson being learned in Iraq?

BlackFive thinks so. And it’s a good one.

The Washington-initiated “surge” will speed-up the ongoing process of defeating the insurgency. But one should not consider the surge responsible for the turnaround. The lesson to be learned is to keep killing the killers until they realize their fate.

That should rate a “duh” but, in a world of John Kerrys and San Fran Nans, even the obvious needs restating.

Miller no Moonbat

There had to have been a lot of clenched teeth at NPR during Batman creator Frank Miller’s interview. The interviewer certainly struggled to conceal his incredulity. Now I’m definitely going to go see 300.

Go Frank!

Something We Can All Agree On

It’s a bumper sticker. If you’re a democrat, put it on the rear bumper. Everybody else, put it on the front bumper.

War Cabinet

A Lt. from Iraq sent a perfect parable to Katie O’Beirne about why the rest of the government needs to get its act together on this war. And Mark Steyn, no less, agrees.

The notion that Foggy Bottom isn’t, shall we say, fully engaged in the war is hardly new. But this is a lot of common sense in a small package.

Patriotic Terrorists

I wonder just how far Greg Gutfield has to go to get kicked out of HuffPo. Apparently even this isn’t too far.

Go Greg!

What He Said

Michael Yon says, “I vote for killing them.”

Kiss England Goodbye, part 493

Several posts today on LGF stemming from some “conference on Islamophobia”. This one takes the cake:

Commander Gargini says, under their proposals, in some cases police would share intelligence with some local [Muslim] people and, if necessary, consult them on anti-terror raids in their area.

Yes. The cops are going to share info with “Muslim leaders” before taking action.

Another Airline to Applaud

I haven’t yet had occasion to fly Qantas but, when and if I do, I’ll fondly remember how they handled this barking moonbat.

Do follow the link to their feedback form. I did, and it gave me great pleasure to applaud them.

“I shot the infidel”

Little Green Footballs notes the near-total media blackout on the motive in the murder of an American in Turkey. As of the latest update, only the Telegraph in the UK includes it in the story.

Maybe Michael Savage is right: Liberalism is a mental disorder. I can’t find any rational explanation for this suicidal, willful blindness. But it sure is rampant.
