The American Spectator : Democrat Thuggery in Its Worst Form

Once again I'm thinking the Left missed that very same memo THEY insisted WE all adhere to about civil discourse....ya think?

"Please put your things in order because you will be killed and your familes [sic] will also be killed due to your actions in the last 8 weeks.

I hope you have a good time in hell. Read below for more information on possible scenarios in which you will die."

The Muslim Brotherhood’s Cover-Up | FrontPage Magazine

Al-Qaeda does its enemy a favor with its honesty. The Muslim Brotherhood does not make the same mistake. It is more politically savvy and aware of how it can manipulate the minds of Westerners with soft language. The Islamist group is trying to clean up its image, most recently by deleting its objectives from its English-language website."

ABC and NBC Resort to Using 'Bert and Ernie' and 'Big Bird' to Undermine Effort to De-Fund NPR

If Bert & Ernie don't earn enough with just the Sesame Street product line to pay their way....I'll eat my hat.....

Demonstrating how the mainstream media are an obstacle to any efforts to make any cuts to any federal spending, NBC and ABC on Wednesday night resorted to citing Sesame Street characters as potential “casualties in a war over culture and spending cuts,” without any regard for how the Children’s Television Workshop is a huge generator of revenue from corporate donations and product sales, as NBC’s Lisa Myers went so far as to exploit the kids of the nation:"

Washington Post Mocks National Medal of Arts Winner, Cancer Survivor | The Weekly Standard

Another example of "the other side" missing that memo on polite public discourse....

He and the president are clearly smiling at one another. As readers will note, Hall is wearing a classic Brooks Brothers-style sack suit and Macclesfield tie, slightly hidden by the medal, and his full beard and slightly unkempt hair give him a certain Walt Whitman look. By my reckoning, Mr. Hall appears to be his age but looks hearty enough—which is impressive, since he has been battling cancer since 1989"

NPR, PBS campaigns to keep federal funds called unlawful - Washington Times

NPR and PBS stations nationwide are rallying their audiences to contact Congress to fight against Republicans’ proposed spending cuts, but some affiliates’ pleas may violate laws preventing nonprofits or government-funded groups from lobbying.

Interrupting popular programs, the stations air warnings that cuts could end beloved children’s television shows such as “Sesame Street.” Some stations urge their audience to call and let Congress know their feelings, while others go further, instructing viewers to “stop the Senate” or “defend federal funding” for public broadcasting."

STRATFOR Report - How a Libyan No-Fly Zone could backfire

Calls are growing for a no-fly zone over Libya, but a power or coalition of powers willing to enforce one remains elusive.

Cost Of A No-Fly Zone? $1 Billion. Benefit to U.S. Economy? $35 Billion. Saving Libyan Lives? Priceless. | The Blaze

CNBC’s Erin Burnett doles out pre-market news and speculation on the U.S. and world financial markets each morning during her ‘Business Before The Bell’ segment on MSNBC. Oil was once again in the spotlight this morning and we heard the price of oil had stabilized as OPEC hinted they might be open to pumping a little more to make up for any supply disruptions due to the recent unrest in the Middle East. (Why wouldn’t you pump more oil? The price has jumped substantially and you can make a killing right now.)"

Wisconsin socialist: Noodles company is ‘dictatorship’ – Glenn Beck

There are a number of “useful idiots” hanging out in Wisconsin, and they don’t want to be told when to show up for their shift or what to cook at the local noodle shop. They don’t think owners should be able to dictate what happens at their own companies. What does Glenn think?"

Entrepreneurs: Leading the Way Out – Glenn Beck

In 1831, Alexis de Tocqueville wrote in Democracy in America:

“It may be said that, in the United States, there is no limit to the inventiveness of man to discover the ways of increasing wealth and to satisfy the public’s needs.” He continued, “the primary reason for [America’s] rapid progress, their strength and greatness is their bold approach to industrial undertakings.” What impressed De Tocqueville most about business in America was “not so much the marvelous grandeur of some undertaking as the innumerable multitude of small ones.”"

BBC News - Newsnight - Will Sarah Palin run for president and can she win?

This is so moronic....not the guns...THAT is easy to understand. It's the fact we have to resort to violence to counter political views that may not agree with our own?! Have we gotten THAT vacuous as a nation - that stupid? That Lazy? Whatever happened to that "Arena of Ideas". The Founders must be spinning in their graves.....

But it has not been harsh press coverage that concerned her elderly parents, Chuck and Sally Heath.

In the kitchen of their Wasilla home, among an extraordinary collection of animal skins, skulls and bones, the spoils of a lifetime spent hunting and fishing, they told me that their whole family has faced death threats."

WELCOME to all OUR worlds!!!!

The federal government posted its largest monthly deficit in history in February at $223 billion, according to preliminary numbers the Congressional Budget Office released Monday morning.

Do you REALLY think they give a damn about you?

Departing members of the House of Representatives awarded millions of dollars in extra pay to aides as they closed down their offices, according to lawmakers' spending records.

That's about twice as much as the 16% increase awarded by lawmakers who returned to the 112th Congress, according to LegiStorm, an organization that tracks congressional salaries."
