MUSLIMS: 'WE DO THAT ON FIRST DATES'
April 29, 2009 BY ANN COULTER
Without any pretense of an argument, which liberals are neurologically incapable of, the mainstream media are now asserting that our wussy interrogation techniques at Guantanamo constituted "torture" and have irreparably harmed America's image abroad.
Only the second of those alleged facts is true: The president's release of the Department of Justice interrogation memos undoubtedly hurt America's…

Torture TV
A fantasy interview on “enhanced interrogation techniques.”April 30, 2009 By Clifford D. May
When I was asked to appear on The Daily Show, the news-with-views edgy-comedy TV program, I was reluctant. The issue: whether “enhanced interrogation techniques” used to pry information about terrorist plots from al-Qaeda leaders should be regarded as torture, and those who used such techniques prosecuted. How would Jon Stewart, the acerbic and unabashedly liberal host, make…

Fact Checking Obama
Posted By Conn Carroll On April 30, 2009 We highlighted [1] the Associated Press’ FACT CHECK [2] on President Barack Obama’s deficit cutting claims this morning, but that was not the only area where Obama stretched the truth.
On jobs:
OBAMA: “We began by passing a Recovery Act that has already saved or created over 150,000 jobs.” - from news conference.
THE FACTS: This assertion is dubious on several levels. For starters, the U.S. has lost…

Morality and Enhanced Interrogation Techniques
Peter Wehner
The issue of the Bush Administration’s enhanced interrogation techniques involve several inter-related questions.
There is, first of all, the matter of morality. Critics of enhanced interrogation techniques have taken to saying that Americans don’t torture, period – meaning in this instance that we do not engage in coercive interrogation techniques ranging from sleep deprivation to prolonged loud noise and/or…

How Washington Pushes Americans into Low-Quality Health Care
by Jeet Guram and John S. O'Shea, M.D.
Backgrounder #2264
Because Washington insists, more Americans will likely find themselves with low-quality health care. President Barack Obama favors an expansion of Med¬icaid, a welfare program, as well as the State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP), as a key compo¬nent of his health care reform agenda.[1] Aside from the President's…

Obama: The Grand Strategy
By Charles Krauthammer
Friday, April 24, 2009
Unified theory of Obamaism, fifth (final?) installment:
In the service of his ultimate mission -- the leveling of social inequalities -- President Obama offers a tripartite social democratic agenda: nationalized health care, federalized education (ultimately guaranteed through college) and a cash-cow carbon tax (or its equivalent) to subsidize the other two.
Problem…

Obama Slyly Maneuvers for Socialism
Thursday, April 23, 2009 8:27 AM
By: D*** Morris & Eileen McGann
President Obama showed his hand this week when The New York Times wrote that he is considering converting the stock the government owns in our country's banks from preferred stock, which it now holds, to common stock.
This seemingly insignificant change is momentous. It means that the federal government will control all of the major…

EARTH DAY 2008: PREDICTIONS OF ENVIRONMENTAL DISASTER WERE WRONG
ncpa.org ^ | April 23, 2008
Posted on Wednesday, April 23, 2008 1:59:28 PM by InvisibleChurch
Another Earth Day has passed, so this is a good time to look back at predictions made on the original Earth Day about environmental disasters that were about to hit the planet, says the Washington Policy Center (WPC).
Most Earth Day predictions turned out to be stunningly wrong. In 1970, environmentalists said…

Counting Mexico's Guns
April 17, 2009
President Obama says 90 percent of Mexico's recovered crime guns come the U.S. Not true.
Summary
There's no dispute that thousands of handguns, military style rifles and other firearms are purchased in the U.S. and end up in the hands of Mexican criminals each year. It's relatively easy to buy such guns legally in Texas and other border states and to smuggle them across.
But is it true as President Obama said, that…

President Obama's New Plan to Decide Where Americans Live and How They Travel
by Ronald D. Utt, Ph.D.
President Barack Obama's early comments on his opposition to suburban sprawl and his intention to alter the way Americans live and travel took a step closer to reality when he created an interdepartmental initiative on housing and transportation costs.[1] A March press release issued by the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) and the U.S.…

The Anti-Success Presidency
D*** Morris and Eileen McGann
Monday, April 13, 2009
Sit in on a corporate boardroom struggling to come to grips with the new economic climate Barack Obama has created. Do we expand? Create more jobs? Launch a new product line? Step up our marketing efforts? Ratchet up production?
But, wait a minute. The bigger our company gets, the closer we come to being "too big to fail," a "systemic risk." The nearer we are to intrusive government oversight,…

Obama's Red Sea
Paul Driessen
Saturday, April 11, 2009
America is diving into a Marianas Trench of red ink. There is barely a digit of black anywhere on the balance sheet, and spendthrift lawmakers are closing off numerous sources of positive revenue.
On the spending side of the ledger, the White House and Congress enacted a $700-billion financial bailout, followed by an earmark-laden $787-billion “stimulus” law and plans to ladle out $1.6 billion in federal…

Unions Can't Move the World
Michael Barone
Saturday, April 11, 2009
If you have a long enough lever, you can move the world. That's an old saying attributed to Archimedes. But what Archimedes didn't add is that a long enough lever may splinter in your hands if the material is not strong enough. You may end up not moving the world where you wanted it to go and finding yourself in a position you didn't want to be in.
That's pretty much the position of organized labor --…

Pirates, Hostages, And Seven Thousand Centrifuges
Austin Hill
Sunday, April 12, 2009
Reuter’s news agency reports that the attack of an American cargo ship by Somali pirates is merely an “annoying distraction” for President Obama, a distraction that is turning attention away from his crucial domestic agenda.
Tell that to Andrea Phillips. She’s the wife of Richard Phillips, the ship Captain being held hostage off-shore from Kenya, who now has a price tag of $2 million…
