Medical response to the Ft. Hood massacre
By John Dale Dunn, MD
Yesterday was beautiful warm blue, blue, make-you-happy, sky day in Texas. I was scheduled to work a shift at Carl R. Darnall Army Medical Center at Fort Hood, Texas, the busiest emergency department in the Army, at a base with always more than [...]

Fort Hood’s 9/11
By RALPH PETERS
On Thursday afternoon, a radicalized Muslim US Army officer shouting “Allahu Akbar!” committed the worst act of terror on American soil since 9/11. And no one wants to call it an act of terror or associate it with Islam.
What cowards we are. Political correctness killed those [...]

The Madness of Queen Nancy
By JOHN FUND
It’s one thing to be serene under fire, it’s another to be delusional.
More than a few Democrats in Congress are perplexed and worried that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is insisting on ramming through a 1,900-page health care bill on Saturday, just days after her [...]

Stimulus Funds for Green Energy Projects Going Offshore along with Other U.S. Manufacturing
The Obama Administration sold its $787 billion stimulus plan on the basis of improving the economy through investing in green energy and by doing so, increasing employment in the United States. But what is actually happening, particularly with [...]

From David Horowitz’s post today we have an elegantly-written, aggressively-argued comment from a writer I hope to see more of in the future:

By DAVID ESPO (AP) – 1 hour ago
WASHINGTON — Amid intense lobbying by the Obama administration, House Democratic leaders struggled Friday for the final votes needed to pass sweeping health care legislation, offering fresh concessions to abortion opponents and working to ease concerns among Hispanic holdouts.
“We’re very [...]

Coming from a man who usually possesses the objectivity of a lovesick puppy when it comes to Obama, Chris Matthews, host of MSNBC’s Hardball sounded out of character when he barked at White House Press Secretary, Robert Gibbs, accusing the president of hanging out with the rich cats, and smelling like a Clinton.
Matthews: “You’re a [...]
MsNBC has proven itself to be fake news with a cross-dressing impersonation of Sarah Palin.
I was all set to write about Sean Hannity’s Great American Panel segment of November 4th, where he discussed abortion with Ralph Reed, Steve Murphy, and (strangely) Alison Rosen, an entertainment writer.
Then I heard about the extermination in Texas.
Stay with me for a second on the Hannity telecast though, because the machinations of the Left all [...]
Islamic jihadists routinely characterize anti-terror efforts as part of a “war on Islam.” But of course, there is no war on terror, and there is no war on Islam. There is just the Islamic jihad against the U.S. and the West. “Hasan Called War on Terror ‘War Against Islam,’ Classmate…

CAIR’s Ibrahim “Honest Ibe” Hooper must be fuming at Abdul-Rashid Abdullah. As I explained here, he needs hate crimes. But the greasy Islamophobes aren’t obliging. “Muslim Veterans Group Says No Reports of Harassment of Islamic Soldiers,” by Joshua Rhett Miller for FoxNews, November 6 (thanks to Axel): A Muslim veteran…
The thuggish Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) is playing the mainstream media like an accordion today, knowing that no reporter will ever dare ask them why they’re condemning yesterday’s jihad attack while opposing every anti-terror measure that has ever come down the pike, and smearing and defaming those who are…

Calling for freelance jihad. Just a coincidence, I’m sure. “Counterterrorism: Shifting from ‘Who’ to ‘How,’” by Scott Stewart and Fred Burton for Stratfor, November 4 (thanks to all who sent this in): In the 11th edition of the online magazine Sada al-Malahim (The Echo of Battle), which was released to…
This, too, follows the example of Muhammad: There came to him (the Holy Prophet) a woman from Ghamid and said: Allah’s Messenger, I have committed adultery, so purify me. He (the Holy Prophet) turned her away. On the following day she said: Allah’s Messenger, Why do you turn me away?…

Obama’s Frightening Insensitivity Following Shooting
A bad week for Democrats compounded by an awful moment for Barack Obama.
By ROBERT A. GEORGE
President Obama didn’t wait long after Tuesday’s devastating elections to give critics another reason to question his leadership, but this time the subject matter was more grim than a [...]

Selected highlights from the Muslim Brotherhood profile:
Founded in 1928 by the Egyptian activist Hasan al-Banna, the Sunni Muslim Brotherhood is one of the oldest, largest and most influential Islamist organizations. Egypt has historically been the center of the Brotherhood’s operations, though the group maintains offshoots throughout the Arab-Muslim [...]
It’s bad enough Eric Boehlert stole Mark Steyn’s putdown for his Media Matters colleagues, a.k.a., “George Soros Steno Pool.”
“Conspiracy stenographer Matthew Vadum types up the nonsense for David Horowitz’s Newsreal,” types Boehlert, in a refreshingly typo-lite post.
Vadum had wondered why police still hadn’t charged union thugs for beating anti-Obamacare protester Kenneth Gladney back in August. [...]
