When I was asked to write a foreword to Geert Wilders’ new book, my first reaction, to be honest, was to pass. Mr. Wilders lives under 24/7 armed guard because significant numbers of motivated people wish to kill him, and it seemed to me, as someone who’s attracted more than enough homicidal attention over the years, that sharing space in these pages was likely to lead to an uptick in my own death threats. Who needs it? Why not just plead too crowded a schedule and suggest the author try elsewhere? I would imagine Geert Wilders gets quite a lot of this.
The solitary, poor, nasty, brutish
and short Life of “Julia,”
Kept Woman, Lifelong Dependent
Alas, Team Obama has omitted a few milestones from the life of Julia:
4 months: Julia’s mother decides that giving birth will be hard on her figure. She kills Julia. Under Barack Obama, her right to do so is absolutely nonnegotiable.
Elian Redux: Barack & Hillary caving to the ChiComs?
Yes.
If anybody, anybody with sense, actually believes that Chinese dissident Chen Guangcheng is happy to be staying in China, or that he and his family will be safe for longer than a few months, that person is, in the old terminology, a “useful idiot” for the Communist cause. The American agreement that sends Chen back from the U.S. Embassy is a craven capitulation to Chinese Communist thuggishness.
“Hollywood Hypocrites” by Jason Matera
Jason Mattera, 28, is a New York Times bestselling author, the youngest editor of a national periodical, Human Events, and the host of “The Jason Mattera Show” on News Talk Radio 77 WABC in New York.
Mattera’s brand-new book, Hollywood Hypocrites: The Devastating Truth About Obama’s Biggest Backers (Simon & Schuster) is already creating buzz. Mark Levin hailed Hollywood Hypocrites as “eye-popping, exhaustively, researched, and absolutely hilarious” and the late Andrew Breitbart called it a “barrage of body blows to Hollywood’s holier-than-thou limousine liberals.”
Justices may not stop at dashing Obamacare
The Obama administration’s defense of Obamacare before the Supreme Court on Tuesday was reviewed as stumbling and bumbling by news reporters, foreshadowing the Big Government clumsiness and ineptitude a universal health care system would offer the public. Justice Anthony Kennedy ripped through the argument that because Congress has the constitutional power to regulate interstate commerce, it has the power to regulate anything. Solicitor General Donald Verrilli was overmatched and ill-prepared, displaying once again why socialism fails: It leads to the appointment of unemployable nephews and political hangers on to positions for which they are ill-suited
That’s Weird?… Forbes Article Calling Obama the ‘Manchurian Candidate’ Disappears Down the Memory Hole
Earlier today Forbes posted an excerpt from the book Hope Is Not a Strategy by John Mariotti and D. M. Lukas. The author provided an excerpt from the book for the article where he describes Barack Obama as a “manufactured candidate” whose history remains sealed. Mariotti then calls Obama the “Manchurian candidate.”
Global Warming and National Suicide
Beginning in 1856, the Xhosa tribe in today’s South Africa destroyed its own economy. They killed an estimated half-million of their own cattle (which they ordinarily treated with great care and respect), ceased planting crops, and destroyed their grain stores. By the end of 1857, between thirty and fifty thousand Xhosa had starved to death — a third to a half of the population. The British herded survivors of the once-powerful tribe into labor camps, and white settlers took much of their land, as reported by Richard Landes in Heaven on Earth: The Varieties of the Millennial Experience.
Jimmy Obama
Everything old is new again! Let’s party like it’s 1980 again! Depression is back, ennui is cool, malaise rocks! And remember how good it felt the night after Election Day that year, how surprised we all were that there was a Silent Majority out there who didn’t cotton to The Peanut and his beguiling siren song of sacrifice and hopelessness. For a Change, let us Hope.
Iron Strings Attached…
Making You An Offer You Can’t Refuse.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency has denied Gov. John Kasich’s request for federal assistance in Clermont County after last week’s tornadoes. Kasich sent a letter Wednesday afternoon to President Barack Obama, asking for a presidential disaster declaration.
