Egyptian faux-rage, deadly American dhimmitude, and the return of Islamic Rage Boy; Update: US Ambassador to Libya, Foreign Service officer, two Marines dead
By Michelle Malkin * September 12, 2012



What a disgusting and disastrous, but wholly predictable, way to end this day. As you may have heard, the U.S. Embassy in Cairo chose the 11th anniversary of 9/11 to apologize for "hurt Muslim feelings" as radical Egyptian clerics stoked faux-rage over an obscure documentary attacking Islamic extremism. The Obama administration's mortifying apology, of course, did not mollify the Muslim agitators. Appeasement has never mollified the practitioners of the Religion of Perpetual Outrage.
Naturally, the Muslim mob stormed the Embassy compound, anyway - and the pretextual violence spread to Libya, where an American State Department worker was killed today* (UPDATE: FOUR killed, including the US Ambassador to Libya and Foreign Service information officer Sean Smith, along with TWO U.S. MARINES). The feckless State Department has deleted its groveling tweet and the White House is in pathetic damage control mode.
UPDATE: And now, of course, the Muslim Brotherhood is calling for worldwide protests.
Let's cut through the diplomatic blather and Obama State Department's p.c. charade. This isn't about ordinary Egyptian Muslims being offended by Koran-burning or some genuine outcry for religious tolerance or widespread anger over how Mohammed is being portrayed. It's about Egyptian imams and Muslim Brotherhood propagandists concocting any excuse for a violent anti-Western conflagration.

A new app called "In Obama's own words" is great. Right now it is only for the iPhone. If you are wanting for someone to hear something Obama said that really is awful for our country, and he has said a lot, this app is what you need on your iPhone. It is only $.99. It is well worth it. It is him talking and saying these things that other people can hear when you press the play button. Pass this information on. The guy who made this is had so many requests to make it for other popular cell phones now. He is just a great patriot who is a great computer nerd and did this after hundreds of hours of work on it.

September 11, 2012
Dear Members and Friends,
On this 911 Anniversary date, we pray for all the victims of the abominable terrorist attacks--and the loved ones they left behind.
We also pray for all Americans as one of the most important elections in our nation's history draws near.
We pray for Governor Mitt Romney, Congressman Paul Ryan, and our other endorsed candidates as they head into the final stretch of the 2012 campaign.
We pray our movement will use our resources--time, energy, money--as effectively as possible in the next few months to win the White House and gain control of both houses of Congress.
In that vein, we humbly suggest that no matter what issue you're asked to rally for--that you hold-off on taking road trips to Harrisburg and/or DC, etc., until after the November election.
The only issue we should be focusing so much time and energy on is defeating Barack Obama!
If a rally's purpose does not have that goal in mind--please don't waste the time. Instead, volunteer at a Victory Office or a local Congressional office. (An office near you can be found @ www.IndependenceHallTeaPartyPAC.com.)
The most effective thing we can do in the present is to use our precious resources for
Get Out the Vote efforts.
That doesn't mean we shouldn't call, fax, or email Governors and/or other elected officials regarding important governmental matters. It just means we don't have the luxury of taking 12 hour trips that won't remove Barack Obama from the White House.
Take healthcare, for example. In Pennsylvania, Rep. Matt Baker's opt out of Obamacare bill, HB 42, has been voted out of committee, but languishes before the full House and the Senate.
If you live in PA, we ask that you call Governor Corbett, House Majority Leader, Mike Turzai, and Senate Majority Leader Dominic Pileggi. Ask them to Enact HB 42
and stop the establishment of Obamacare Health Exchanges in PA.
Governor Tom Corbett: 717.787.2500, 717.772.8284 (fax)
State Representative Mike Turzai: 717.772.9943
State Senator Dominic Pileggi: 717.787.4712
Also, call your local State Senator and State Representative with the same message.
To find contact numbers for your local PA legislators, visit: www.legis.state.pa.us/.
(When contacting your elected officials, please let them know you're with
Independence Hall Tea Party. There is strength in numbers.)
Many thanks!
On behalf of the PAC Board,
Don Adams

New Campaign launched by former CIA, Special Operations Members to combat leaks and politicization of National Security Info
Kicks Off Nationwide With Release Of Documentary Short Film Titled "Dishonorable Disclosures"
OPSEC Website: http://www.opsecteam.org/
Former CIA and Special Operations members are announcing the creation of OPSEC, a new nationwide public campaign to combat the spike in leaks and politicization of Intelligence and Special Operations missions that threaten their effectiveness and the safety of Americans who conduct them. OPSEC - short for Operational Security, meaning to eliminate or reduce the exploitation of critical information - will begin with the release of "Dishonorable Disclosures," a new documentary short film highlighting the problem from the perspective of those who have served in these critical positions. The film will also serve as the basis for a TV and online advertising effort.

"Intelligence and Special Operations members are angry and frustrated at how our work has been used for political advantage by officials across government, including President Obama himself who bears special responsibility as Commander in Chief," said Scott Taylor, chairman of OPSEC and a former Navy SEAL. "We want the American people to understand the cost of these leaks and politicization both on those who serve and on our national security and to hold those in positions of leadership accountable if it doesn't stop."
OPSEC is made up of individuals who served their country in the CIA, and Special Operations Forces (SOF) consisting of Navy SEALs, Army Special Forces, Marine Corps and Air Force Special Operations. It is organized as a 501(c)(4) nonpartisan public education campaign and is independent of any political party or campaign organization.
The campaign will begin with the release of "Dishonorable Disclosures," a documentary short film that views the impact of the increasing number of leaks on Intelligence and Special Operations missions, tradecraft, tactics and capabilities from the perspective of those who have relied on these tools to carryout similar missions and protect themselves and those they served alongside. The film will be shown at events in key states across the country over the next several months, including Virginia, Florida, Ohio, Colorado, North Carolina and Nevada. "Dishonorable Disclosures" can be seen here.
"Countless leaks, interviews and decisions by the Obama Administration and other government officials have undermined the success of our Intelligence and Special Operations forces and put future missions and personnel at risk," said Fred Rustmann, an OPSEC member and 24-year veteran of the Central Intelligence Agency. "OPSEC will carry a strong message across the country that it's time for President Obama and other administration officials to stop jeopardizing national security operations for political gain."
More information about OPSEC and news about the release of "Dishonorable Disclosures" can be found at http://www.opsecteam.org/.
 | Dishonorable Disclosures |
Former Special Ops officers from four separate branches of the military have joined ranks for one specific purpose - to remove Barack Obama from office.
And now they need your help to do it.
Dear Fellow American,
During World War II, they had a poster up in every defense plant and military base in America.
It didn't mince words; it told it straight --
"Loose lips sink ships."
Well, now our nation is saddled with a Commander in Chief who just doesn't seem to get that message. Or, if he does, he simply doesn't care.
Let me lay it on the line: Barack Obama's loose lips are doing worse than sinking ships - they're putting our entire nation at risk.
And if you and I don't get this man out of office, he's going to destroy our military, undermine every ally we have, and arm our enemies to the teeth.
All for his own sorry political purposes.
That's why I am asking you to join me now in helping the Special Operations Speaks (SOS) PAC launch a nationwide campaign to remove Barack Obama from office. Before it's too late.
Demand Congress Hold the Obama 'Leakers' Accountable http://specialoperationsspeaks.com/petition/petition-ptec
PS: Like most Navy officers, the date of June 15, 1985, is seared in my memory. That's the date Islamic terrorists hijacked TWA Flight 847 and brutally tortured Navy Seabee Robert Stethem to death. All he had to do was scream out for mercy, and he would have been allowed to live. But he refused to utter a sound. The pilot of Flight 847 later said, "He was the bravest man I've ever seen in my life." Bob Stethem's brother was a Navy SEAL; I know him. So, I know something of the stuff of which he was made. Warriors like him don't scream out, they don't beg for mercy, and they don't ask for help. And that's why my fellow former Special Operations officers and I are asking for your help on their behalf today. In 2008, when he was running for president, Barack Obama promised his leftwing supporters that if they helped him get elected, "I will slow the development of future combat systems." That's one of the only campaign promises he has kept. And it has placed our brave warriors in harm's way. Your gift of $25, $50, $100 - even $1,000 or more if you can possibly spare it - will help our Special Operations Speaks PAC bring an end to Barack Obama's war on the military. So, I urge you, please give as generously as you can. |
Please give your attention to this important announcement from the Senate Conservatives Fund. From time to time, we send you content on behalf of third parties we believe may be of interest to you and we believe this one deserves your attention.
Fellow Conservatives:
If you want to stop the massive growth of our federal government and save America's future, we must change the United States Senate.
Harry Reid and the Democrats control the Senate today and, unfortunately, we still have too many Republicans who lack the courage to fight for our nation's founding principles.
As a Senator who works each day to stop the massive spending, bailouts, and debt that are destroying our country, I can tell you that we desperately need conservative reinforcements.
This is why I founded the Senate Conservatives Fund back in 2008 and it's why SCF is working so hard today to elect a new group of leaders in 2012 who will fight to turn this country around.
Will you help change the Senate?
The Senate Conservatives Fund has endorsed eight conservative candidates who will help strip Harry Reid of control of the Senate and fight the liberal policies that are bankrupting our country.
 | Josh Mandel Ohio |
 | Jeff Flake Arizona |
 | Richard Mourdock Indiana |
 | Ted Cruz Texas |
 | Deb Fischer Nebraska |
 | George Allen Virginia |
 | Tom Smith Pennsylvania |
 | Dan Bongino Maryland |
These eight candidates are unique in that they have conservative records, have earned support from the grassroots in their states, and have the courage to stand up for our values -- even if it means going against their own party's leadership. These candidates support all of SCF's policy goals, including: - Cutting spending to balance the budget
- Repealing Obamacare entirely
- Securing the borders and oppose amnesty
- Stopping corporate bailouts
- Banning earmarks
- Establishing term limits
- Defending the 2nd Amendment
- Protecting human life
The Senate Conservatives Fund is doing two important things to help its endorsed candidates win in November. First, SCF is raising money for each of the candidates from donors all across the nation. Money alone does not win elections, but the lack of money can certainly lose them. Second, SCF is running powerful TV and radio ads to counter the opposition and drive home our side's message of economic freedom and prosperity. So if you want to do something really meaningful and effective to save our country, please support the Senate Conservatives Fund and its endorsed candidates TODAY.
Help Change the Senate ... SCF makes it possible for you to donate directly to its eight endorsed candidates so they receive 100% of your donations. This is a very unique approach for a third-party group and it shows exactly how committed SCF is to helping these candidates. It's also why the POLITICO newspaper called SCF a "wildly successful small-donor fundraising machine." These are exceptional candidates who have overcome long odds to get this far, and now they urgently need your help to win in November. Time is running out and we must work together to send true conservative leaders to Washington this year. Thank you for doing what you can to help turn this country around. Sincerely, Jim DeMint United States Senator P.S. If we're going to save America, we must fire Harry Reid and change the United States Senate. Without a conservative Senate, we'll never stop the massive spending, bailouts, and debt that are destroying this great country.

60 Plus "LET'S DO BETTER" TOUR
PATIENT CENTERED AFFORDABLE REFORM
The "Let's Do Better" bus tour will visit with seniors in their communities to discuss their reaction to the controversial health reform care bill passed in 2010. This legislation, which remains unpopular with seniors, cuts Medicare, cripples Medicare Advantage, establishes a "Medicare IRS", and generally provides for a bureaucratic takeover of important health care decisions - all unpopular with seniors.
The tour is a project of the 60 Plus Association.
Events surrounding the tour will include rallies, health care briefings, meet & greets, and townhall meetings. It will also feature health care experts and advocates, as well as the 60 Plus leadership team of Jim Martin, Amy Frederick, and legendary entertainer Pat Boone - who is the national spokesperson for the seniors group.
60 Plus, founded more than 20 years ago and currently supported by some 7.2 million "senior activists", is often referred to as the conservative alternative to the AARP. The group funded by voluntary donations from over a quarter-million donors and does not accept taxpayer funding, unlike the AARP.
The bus has a replica of its own AARP bumper sticker reproduced in giant letters on the outside of the bus, 'AARP: Association Against Retired Persons.' The side panels read: 'Healthcare Reform: Let's Do Better-Patient Centered, Affordable Reform.'
Yours in Liberty, The Kitchen Table Patriots

Brigitte Gabriel to Speak in Vineland, NJ! Brigitte Gabriel Leading Global Islamic Terrorism Expert
CLICK HERE to view Brigitte's special video invitation!
It is my privilege to invite you to a special event featuring Brigitte Gabriel, Founder and President of ACT! for America. This event is free and open to the public and will be held at the following:
Chestnut Assembly of God 2554 E. Chestnut Ave. Vineland, NJ 08360 Thursday, September 27th at 7 pm
|
Ms. Gabriel will speak on the rise of Islamic radicalism in your community and in our nation. Her story of survival as a persecuted Christian living in a bomb shelter for 7 years will have you captivated and inspired! She will share how the events of 9/11 compelled her to start ACT! for America, the largest national security grassroots organization in the U.S. The events over the past eighteen months have been a sobering wake-up call to America. Without question, the threats radical Islam poses to America have increased. Brigitte will discuss these threats to our security and our freedoms, such as...
- The growing threat of homegrown jihad, with the number of such jihadist plots skyrocketing over the past two years.
- How terrorists are exploiting our porous southern border, often working with drug cartels.
- The increasingly militant-and successful-effort by Islamists worldwide to suppress free speech and criminalize any criticism of Islam.
- The growing Muslim Brotherhood threat and how Islamic sharia law is creeping into America.
- How the history and doctrines of Islam are being misrepresented in public school textbooks and classrooms.

For a taste of what is in store for you, check out Brigitte's speech at one of our recent events: http://www.tennessean.com/VideoNetwork/1271237687001/ACT-for-America-founder-speaks-at-anti-Shariah-conference-in-Nashville You will hear first-hand how ACT! for America is successfully rolling back the tide of radical Islam...how we are winning legislative victories...how we don't have to live in fear or resign ourselves to the inevitability of the threats arrayed against us...and how we will prevail. I encourage you to forward this email to everyone you know. They may forward it to someone they know who may not only attend, but will invite others to come! We are sending this email to our members in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Maryland because we know from prior experience, that many people are not only willing to travel to hear Brigitte speak, but are willing to bring others with them. I know those of you who have heard Brigitte will agree-you don't want to miss this! It will be an event people will be talking about for a long time to come! Invite your friends and come join us in Vineland, NJ! We look forward to seeing you on September 27th. Yours for a Safe and Free America, Guy Rodgers Executive Director

Activate: How to turn the 2012 election from a close call to a mandate
Last night, Glenn focused on the importance of commitment. He was the first to admit, a lot of last night's show was something you had heard before - but it's important to start at the beginning and to make sure you know what you believe before you get put into action. And tonight, Glenn revealed ways for you to really get moving!
Tonight, the focus of the show was "Activate" - and it was all about the election and how you can make sure that one way or another - 2012 is a year for a mandate for or against the progressives. And if you think it doesn't matter just take a look at what is happening right now in Wisconsin. Progressives and unions are doing everything they can to make sure that Walker loses. It's a microcosm to what is happening around the country, and Glenn thought it was so important that he recapped it on tonight's show (in under three minutes!):

Dear Friends,
We have 54 days left to stop the American Nation from becoming the Obama Nation.
If we give this president four more years, he will finish the job of remolding America into a hard-core keynesian state resembling some of the most economically dependent
nations in Europe--in particular--Greece and Spain.
We do not have to travel down this road. We can change the course. You can help steer America in the right direction.
If you want an America where free enterprise is respected and ObamaCare is repealed,
and not the other way, stay in the area this summer & fall . Volunteer at Republican Victory Centers.
Attend local events promoting our region's Republican Congressional candidates--including our tri-state Republican US Senate candidates--Tom Smith (PA), Joe Kyrillas (NJ), and Kevin Wade (DE).

I have some very exciting news! Citizens United Productions has just announced an all rights distribution deal for our newest film Occupy Unmasked with Magnet Releasing, the genre arm of Magnolia Pictures, owned by Mark Cuban and Todd Wagner. Magnet is giving the film a limited theatrical release with VOD in late September to be followed by the DVD release. I've attached the full press release at the bottom of this email. While the Liberal establishment and mainstream media portray the Occupy Wall Street movement as organic and nonviolent, Occupy Unmasked reveals the sinister, organized, and highly orchestrated nature of its leaders and their number one goal: Not just to change government, but to destroy it. Led by hugely influential conservative visionary, the late Andrew Breitbart, Occupy Unmasked delves deep beneath the surface of the Occupy movement to show its dark anarchist roots. Behind the largely naïve students and legitimately concerned citizens looking for answers stand those who advocate the use of violence, black bloc operations, and intimidation as protest tactics - the same tactics they used during the anti-war protests of the 1960's, anti-nuclear weapons protests of the 80's, WTO protests of the 90's, and the IMF protests of recent years. Former leftists turned patriotic citizen journalists Brandon Darby, David Horowitz, Pam Keys, Anita MonCrief, Mandy Nagy, Lee Stranahan, and others take viewers into the Occupy camps around the country to see first-hand the truth of what is happening and who is at the heart of the movement. Exclusive footage and eyewitness accounts tell the story of the criminal activity and raw brutality in the camps - much of which has not been reported by the mainstream media. Directed by Stephen K. Bannon (The Undefeated, Generation Zero), Occupy Unmasked is an eye-opening look at a startling movement that could have a dangerous impact on the future of America. CLICK HERE TO LEARN MORE ABOUT THIS EXPLOSIVE FILM! Sincerely, David N. BossiePresident of Citizens United Executive Producer of Occupy Unmasked P.S. We continue to take pre-orders so be the first to own Occupy Unmasked on DVD by purchasing TODAY!
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Magnet Releasing to Distribute Andrew Breitbart Doc OCCUPY UNMASKED New York, August 6, 2012 - The Wagner/Cuban Company's Magnet Releasing announced today an all rights distribution deal for Citizens United Productions' documentary OCCUPY UNMASKED, one of the last projects featuring the late conservative icon Andrew Breitbart. OCCUPY UNMASKED was written and directed by award-winning director Stephen K. Bannon and produced by David N. Bossie. Magnet is giving the film a limited theatrical release day and date with VOD in late September. "This film is controversial, and that's exactly the reason we want to ensure it can find its audience prior to the November elections," said Mark Cuban, co-owner of Magnet. "I look forward to our partnership with Citizens United Productions and to getting this film out to the masses." OCCUPY UNMASKED takes viewers into the Occupy Wall Street camps around the country in New York, Los Angeles, Washington, D.C., Portland, Denver and Oakland for an up-close look at what's happened there and who's at the heart of the movement, documenting criminal activity and raw brutality in the camps - much of which has not been reported by the mainstream media. In addition to Andrew Breitbart, the film features journalists Brandon Darby, David Horowitz, Pam Keys, Anita MonCrief, Mandy Nagy, and Lee Stranahan. "I am proud to announce that Citizens United Productions is teaming up with Mark Cuban and Magnet to distribute OCCUPY UNMASKED, and elevate the film the Left does not want the American people to see," said Producer David N. Bossie. "This distribution deal will keep the groundbreaking work of the late conservative icon Andrew Breitbart alive for years to come." "As a dear friend of Andrew's, I could not be more thrilled that this deal got completed and all Americans will have an opportunity to see one of Andrew Breitbart's final pieces of work," said writer/director Stephen K. Bannon. "This film is important because it sheds new light on the myth of the Occupy Wall Street movement. I know audiences across the country will be startled by what we uncovered in this explosive documentary." |

When you think of the great presidential debates throughout history, there's Lincoln and Douglas in 1858, Kennedy and Nixon in 1960, and then there is Glenn's new live comedy stage show, Unelectable 2012. Since Glenn couldn't personally visit every city in America on his Unelectable 2012 tour, he has decided that the final show will be simulcast LIVE in movie theaters all over the country, probably one in your town! Watch Glenn drown in his own sweat while you relax in air conditioning, eating nachos and Milk Duds. This is an amazingly funny show, the kind of presidential debate that you'll never actually see because Glenn plays a candidate who tells the truth! Joined by the writers and performers of GBTV's sketch comedy show, The B.S. of A., many are saying it could be the funniest show Glenn's ever done, and it ends with an inspiring message that will have you on your feet full of hope. It's a night of fun the whole family can enjoy! With the election season we've got in front of us, this may be the only "funny-on-purpose" thing related to politics for years to come.

WHAT IS THE ROLE OF THE PEOPLE?
"In the United States, government requires not merely the consent of the governed. It rests ultimately on the ability of the people to govern themselves."
As the presidential election approaches, the choices before our nation have never been more critical. The final volume in the Understanding America series, What is the Role of the People?
, examines the great responsibility the Founders bestowed upon us, the American people.
The Founders built the United States on the fundamental principle that we have the right to govern ourselves. To govern effectively, we must ensure our society's continued virtue and freedom, and pass the inheritance of freedom on to each new generation.
Authored by Heritage Foundation President Edwin Feulner, this final volume in the
Understanding Americaseries explores how and why we must live up to our responsibilities in maintaining the Founders' vision. Learn more in What is the Role of the People?
For the full Understanding America series, visit heritage.org/UnderstandingAmerica. Don't miss these volumes:
What Is America's Role In the World? The United States' foreign policy exists, first and foremost, to defend the independence and interests of its people. But America also has a unique responsibility to uphold and advance the universal principles of liberty upon which it was founded. This volume provides insight into how the Founders' understanding of liberty shaped their vision for foreign policy. Read More
How Must America Practice Diplomacy? This volume in the Understanding America series examines how the principles of liberty that define America must also guide its practice of diplomacy. Read More
How Must America Balance Security and Liberty? America's Founders recognized that the nation's security and its peoples' liberty are not opposed. Rather, security is necessary for the flourishing of liberty. Since its founding, America has promoted security and protected liberty by pursuing policies that strengthen both. This volume in the Understanding America series explores the ways in which the Constitution's Framers sought to protect liberty, and shows that the goals of ensuring security and respecting liberty can and must be reconciled.

The Great Betrayal: Obama's Wars and the War in Iraq
Jul 18th, 2012
Daniel Greenfield's new Freedom Center pamphlet, The Great Betrayal: Obama's Wars and the War in Iraq, is an effort to understand the politics of the "war on terror" which has now reached a final punctuation point with the U.S. decision to speed its withdrawal from the battlefields of Iraq and Afghanistan (where success was once deemed so crucial to national security), and to practice an incoherent form of regime change in Libya while ignoring more serious threats in Syria and Iran.
The war on terror began, Greenfield shows, as an admirable bipartisan commitment soon after the tragedy of 9/11-an effort to transcend party lines not only to punish those who attacked our country but also to interrupt planning for further attacks and try to stop the international spread of the Islamic jihad behind the attacks. But the Democratic Party, with the honorable exception of a few individuals like Richard Gephardt and Joe Lieberman, turned its back on a war soon after authorizing it, and did so at a time when American troops were facing hostile enemy fire.
Although Senate Democrats on the intelligence oversight committee had been granted access to every piece of data available to the White House, they now accused President Bush of tricking them to secure their approval. In fact, their own about-face was entirely dictated by political considerations when a Sixties antiwar activist, Howard Dean, surged ahead in the Democratic primary polls and it appeared for a moment that Americans were on the side of retreat and capitulation.
Although regime change in Iraq had been official U.S. policy since Bill Clinton signed the Iraq Liberation Act of 1998, Democratic senators such as John Kerry who only months earlier had supported the war effort now launched demoralizing attacks on the American commander-in-chief and his troops in the field, stigmatizing it as "the wrong war in the wrong place at the wrong time." If the truth was the first casualty of their war against the Bush administration, the second casualty was the principle of bi-partisanship that had guided foreign policy debates throughout the Cold War, the principle that "politics stops at the water's edge." Now partisan politics trumped security.
The unrestrained attacks on the Iraq War as illegal and unjustified went largely unanswered by Republicans who failed to call the Democratic saboteurs of the nation's war effort to account or to decry the risk their cynical attacks posed to American servicemen and women on the battlefield. As Greenfield demonstrates, the Democrats' partisanship had consequences not only in Iraq but elsewhere in the region: the paralysis that resulted from their "anti-war" campaign led straight to the destruction of Lebanon and the installation of a terrorist army, Hezbollah, there as a regime within a regime. And it emboldened an overtly Islamofascist regime in Iran not only to supply the IEDs responsible for most of our troop fatalities in Iraq but also to proceed with a nuclear program aimed directly at Israel and the West.
The Great Betrayal shows that Barack Obama's abandonment of Iraq is a betrayal of all the Americans and Iraqis who gave their lives to establish freedom in that country. And the result of his policies in Afghanistan has been as disastrous. While the President presented his rationale for pursuing war there as the pursuit of al-Qaeda, after abandoning his "surge" (which resulted in two thirds of all America's Afghan casualties there and the resurgence of the Taliban allies of al-Qaeda), he blithely prepared for withdrawal as if national objectives had been met.

"Losing our Sons": Documentary looks at domestic Islamic radicalization and jihadization
Charles Jacobs at Americans for Peace and Tolerance announced today the release of a trailer for their upcoming documentary, "Losing Our Sons", featuring Melvin Bledsoe - father of domestic terrorist Carlos Bledsoe aka Abdulhakim Mohamed who gunned down US Army recruiter Pvt. William Long at an Army-Navy recruiting center in Little Rock, Arkansas in June 2009. Melvin Bledsoe testified at the House Homeland Security Committee hearing earlier this month.
The upcoming documentary discusses how Bledsoe was radicalized by the Muslim Student Association in Tennessee and sent to terrorist training in Yemen with the written recommendation of the imam of a Nashville mosque. It also discusses how the agents of radicalization in the Nashville Muslim community have been aided by collaborators in the establishment media, politics and the so-called "interfaith" community.

Are You Registered to Vote? Do You Have a Photo ID? Do They Match?
September 10, 2012
According to the U.S. Constitution all American citizens 18 years of age or older, regardless of race, color, religion, or creed, whether male or female, have the right to vote. However, voting in Pennsylvania this year will be a bit more complicated than prior years due to the new Voter ID law. A dedicated group of Main Line citizens are doing what they can to make sure that you can exercise that right on November 6th.
A small table located at Gateway Shopping Center (near Trader Joes and Great Earth Vitamins) is staffed with volunteers on weekends who will assist you by:
- Providing voter registration forms
- Helping people to complete their voter registration form
- Providing absentee ballot application forms and completion instructions
- Providing up to date information on the voter ID requirements
Additionally, if anyone has a question that the volunteer on duty is unable to answer, we will take their name, email address and/or phone number and get back to the questioner with an answer.
The table will be staffed every Friday from 3 pm to 7 pm and every Saturday & Sunday from 9 am to 7 pm now thru October 7th.
We recommend that everyone check to make sure that (1) you are still registered to vote and that (2) your voter registration name exactly matches your name on the photo ID that you plan to use on Election Day. To confirm that you are registered, go to www.can9/10/12ivote.org . Select Pennsylvania; then click on Find Voter Registration Status. Entering your personal data will allow you to confirm that you are registered and provide you with the address of your polling place.
Some may question whether citizens in our area really need help in registering to vote. When this service was provided in 2008 over 1000 people registered at the table! Volunteers assisted citizens from the 5-county Philadelphia area and Lancaster, Berks, and Lehigh Counties.
Key dates for this fall's election are:
10/9 - last day that Voter Registration forms will be accepted by Voter Services
10/30 - last day that Absentee Ballot applications will be accepted by Voter Services
11/2 - last day that completed Absentee Ballots will be accepted by Voter Services
11/6 - Election Day

America's Debt to Its Diplomatic, Military, and Intelligence Personnel
David S. Addington | September 12, 2012
The deaths in Benghazi, Libya, of the U.S. Ambassador to Libya and others in the service of the United States provides a tragic reminder of the great sacrifices that U.S. diplomatic, military, and intelligence personnel serving abroad make to defend America and its interests around the globe.
In a dangerous world, and especially in the dangerous areas of the Middle East and North Africa, American citizens who volunteer to serve in America's foreign policy agencies and in the U.S. armed forces face risks both from public disorder and intentional attacks by terrorists. Those Americans put their lives on the line to protect their fellow Americans and advance the principles of freedom, opportunity, and free enterprise that America champions in the world.
No grenade blasts, no bomb explosions, and no rain of bullets will stop those in America's diplomatic, military, and intelligence service from accomplishing their missions. Their continuing dedication to service reflects the greatness of America and the dedication of the American people to proceed, as Abraham Lincoln said, "with firmness in the right as God gives us to see the right."
Our thoughts and prayers are with the families of the fallen and with those on the front lines around the world in our diplomatic facilities, military units, and intelligence elements. May God bless all those who serve our country abroad, and may God bless our country's leaders as they work to protect them in these days of danger.

Hillsdale's New FREE Online Course: The Progressive Rejection of the Founding and the Rise of Bureaucratic Despotism
Available to you, your family, your friends, and all Americans. Begins September 4, 2012 - Sign Up TODAY! Dear Linda, In 2012 our Constitution is under assault like never before. Even as I write, self-described Progressives are working to subvert the Constitution to replace it with an ever more expansive and intrusive bureaucratic despotism. My name is Larry Arnn and I'm the President of Hillsdale College. You might have heard Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Mark Levin and other conservative radio hosts talk about Hillsdale College. The ongoing radical Progressive agenda poses a serious threat to the survival of free government in our great nation. At Hillsdale, we believe that a massive, nationwide education project to promote America's founding principles is the only way to defeat this Progressive agenda. As one of our most loyal supporters, you've been an important part of Hillsdale's effort to educate Americans on the importance of preserving our Constitution. That's why I want you to be one of the first to know about our brand new online course:
"The Progressive Rejection of the Founding and the Rise of Bureaucratic Despotism."
The first class begins on Tuesday, September 4 and the final one will occur during the week of the national elections in November. I hope you'll sign up immediately.
[Register for this new course right now.]
In this no-cost, ten-week course, you'll learn from members of Hillsdale's politics department faculty - some of the nation's top scholars on the Constitution - about the history of Progressivism and how the movement has slowly chiseled away at our freedoms over the past century. With Hillsdale's outstanding reputation as a leading academic institution, this course offers you a unique educational experience that you won't be able to get anywhere else. Earlier this year Hillsdale offered its first online course on the Constitution. And in doing so it made a major impact with more than 275,000 Americans registering for "Constitution 101: The Meaning and History of the Constitution." We expect our newest course - The Progressive Rejection of the Founding and the Rise of Bureaucratic Despotism - to attract even more attention. And I hope you will be one of the registrants! Here are the ten lecture topics for the course...

[Click here to register for our new online course: "The Progressive Rejection of the Founding and the Rise of Bureaucratic Despotism."]
Why is Hillsdale teaching a course on the Progressive movement?
Americans who believe in constitutional liberty and limited government need to understand what they're up against, so Hillsdale designed this course to teach Americans the history of Progressivism and how it continues to work to ignore and dismantle the U.S. Constitution. From its intellectual origins in the late 19th and early 20th centuries with Presidents Theodore Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson, to the massive government expansions under FDR's New Deal and LBJ's Great Society, to the third great expansion of big-government programs during the past three years, Progressives are making our country unrecognizable in comparison to the constitutional republic created by America's Founding Fathers. To understand fully this attack on limited government constitutionalism, and thus to know what is needed to stem the tide, take Hillsdale's new online Constitution course, which starts on September 4 and concludes the week of the national elections in November.
PLEASE GO HERE TO REGISTER NOW.
AND, like all Hillsdale online courses, it will be archived online so that you can refer back to the lectures or access them at your leisure. I have the privilege of delivering the first lecture, "The Founders' Constitution and the Challenge of Progressivism," and the final lecture, "Restoring Constitutional Government." All of the classes will be taught by Hillsdale College professors - the top teachers in their field and the same ones who instruct our students here on Hillsdale's campus.
[Go here to see the course's schedule and register]
I am proud, thanks to your past support and the support of many patriotic Americans, that Hillsdale College is teaching hundreds of thousands of Americans about the Constitution and its principles of liberty. This course is crucial for all Americans who want to understand the dangers confronting the Constitution and its principles today. I hope YOU will join us for this important course! As President of Hillsdale College, I have devoted my life to education, and in particular to teaching about the American founding, its underlying principles, and subsequent constitutional history. The last chapter in that history, covering the past century, tells a story about how the progressive movement has undermined the Constitution and replaced it with a bureaucratic despotism - if we are to recover the Constitution, that story must be understood. That is why we are offering this new course, free, to all Americans.
[Please go here to enroll in our new Constitution Course: "The Progressive Rejection of the Founding and the Rise of Bureaucratic Despotism" Today]
The more than 275,000 who signed up for our first constitution course last spring prove that Americans are willing and eager to study and defend the Constitution and the principles that made our country the most free and most prosperous in human history! I hope you will sign up for our new course and help continue this re-awakening of national interest in the Constitution.

Hillsdale College has accepted this challenge, and our commitment to making this course available to citizens nationwide is proof. But we need you, as one of our best supporters, to help to make this possible. . .
[Go here to register and donate]
As you may already know, in order to protect the integrity of its mission and prevent intrusive government regulation, Hillsdale College accepts no taxpayer funding whatsoever, even indirectly in the form of federal or state student grants or loans.

"How Did Harry Reid Get Rich?" By Betsy Woodruff Originally posted August 15, 2012
"Try this thought experiment.

Now imagine that this person's current salary - and he's at the top of his game - is $193,400. You probably wouldn't expect him to have millions in stocks, bonds, and real estate."

RedState Morning Briefing
For September 13, 2012
1. The American Media Beclowned Themselves Yesterday
Yesterday, as the American consulate in Libya was smoking and the rioters were returning in Egypt, the President of the United States flew off to Las Vegas for a fundraiser while his spokesman was telling the American press corps that yesterday wasn't really a normal political day. Had it been George W. Bush, the media would, right now, be marching on the White House with pitch forks and torches. Remember, on 9/11, as events were unfolding in Washington, the American media was crying for President Bush to return to Washington. They wanted Daddy at home in the White House where he could tuck them in bed, damn the security issues of getting him there.
I get that Chuck Todd is a former Democrat staffer with ties to Democratic Party operatives. I get that the Politico is riddled with Democrats, some former activists and a former staffer for Debbie Wasserman Schultz. I get that Michael Scherer from Time magazine is a left wing reporter for Mother Jones and Salon.com turned respectable, "objective" journalist. I get that Ben Smith, leading up Buzz Feed, is a leftwing journalist paraded about as if he is some sort of objective reporter at a trendy site full of cat photos. What I really get is that the American media runs with a herd mentality, leans left, and yesterday collectively fell over their group think as they leaned so far left to focus on Mitt Romney and not President Obama. Yesterday, the American media beclowned itself in ways I didn't really even think was possible, even knowing how . . . please click here for the rest of the post →
2. Mitt Romney Should Raise These Questions
Mitt Romney is in a difficult position. On September 11, 2012, radical Islamists stormed the American Embassy in Cairo, tore down and burned the American flag, and hoisted a black flag associated with Al Qaeda. In Libya, radical Islamists did the same, but also set the embassy on fire, fired rockets, and killed Ambassador Christopher Stevens and at least three other State Department employees.

3. Libya and Egypt Are The Price of Ineptocracy The events of yesterday, more than any scholarly paper, underscore the craven cowardice and geopolitical ineptness of the Obama Administration. Far from being a surprise, the sacking of two of our embassies and the slaughter of our ambassador in Libya can be rightly described as the logical outcome of the feckless fascination this administration has had with any group of armed thugs who lay claim to being freedom fighters.

He is raising up to $1 billion for various Republican Super-PACs, in order to elect Mitt Romney as president. That sounds impressive. But what is he going to do with the money?

The Democratic Party and a Second Holocaust By Roger L. Simon
I admit the title of this article is incendiary, but these are incendiary times -- not just because the U.S. consulate in Benghazi has been torched and the embassy in Cairo attacked by Islamic fanatics protesting a movie no one ever heard of, let alone saw, but because, in the midst of this, the president of the United States declined to meet with the prime minister of Israel when Benjamin Netanyahu is in the U.S. next week for the convening of the General Assembly.
Romney Is No Savior, and That's the Point By Sarah Hoyt
In blog after blog I hear people lamenting that Romney is not a thing like Reagan, that they don't see anyone in the party who is like Reagan, that what we need is Reagan. Are you out of your minds? When the people think they can trust a man absolutely and offload their power onto that man, even if the man is a Reagan, in the end, the best you can hope for is that after his term in office the slide into statism will resume... as it did after Reagan.

Why High Fashion Was So Much Better in the 1950s By Julia Szabo

It's called "Schuberth: l'Atelier della Dolce Vita," and it's a charming profile of Emilio Federico Schuberth, a designer of alta moda (high fashion) in Rome during the heyday of Cinecitta.

On these shores, Americans commemorated the cold-blooded gleeful murder of thousands of their fellow men and women by bowing their heads and enlisting in one of the free work projects of the National Day of Service listed at Serve.gov, a combination that says all that needs to be said about our present day relationship with our government. In newly liberated Benghazi, the city that Obama named as his moral imperative for fighting an illegal war against the will of the American people, gunmen opened fire on the American embassy and killed an American security guard. That dead man is the first American casualty in the Libyan War-- a casualty that will be acknowledged and honored around the same time that someone in the media calls the Libyan War, a war, instead of sticking to the shameless lie of a No Fly Zone. In Cairo, a mob of a thousand climbed the wall, tore down the American flag, tore it to pieces, burned it and tried to replace it with their own flag with the words, "There is no God but Allah and Mohammad is his messenger". That message was the same one that the murderers of Americans have shouted, written and videotaped themselves chanting in one form or another. As befits a great power, the US Embassy in Cairo responded by condemning "the continuing efforts by misguided individuals to hurt the religious feelings of Muslims." The US Embassy's statement was virtually indistinguishable from the one issued by the beleaguered Christian Copts of Egypt. The Christians of Egypt act that way because they live at the merciless mercy of Muslims. Apparently so do we. When the Prophet-Criers climb our walls and murder us, we apologize for having offended their religious feelings. The same religious feelings that took down the World Trade Center as part of a murderous crusade going back over a thousand years. They kill us and we elect a man with a Muslim background to tour the world and explain to all the angry Muslims that we're really very nice people once you get to know us.

Mixed Messages: The US-Israel Dispute Over Iran
by Prof. Eytan Gilboa BESA Center Perspectives Paper No. 181, September 10, 2012 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The recent public dispute between American President Barack Obama and Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu has created confusion over the position of the US regarding military action against Iran. This is the wrong way to bring about an end to Iran's nuclear weapons program. It is imperative that the public sparring come to an end and the lines of communication between the two leaders be clearer. The US ought to consider equipping Israel with enhanced military resources that would allow Israel to confront Iran at a later date, giving Western allies more time to pressure the Iranian regime.
The latest public exchanges between the United States and Israel reveal that American President Barack Obama and Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu are in disagreement over Iran. While Netanyahu may have been too aggressive in
his talks about the situation in Iran and the potential for a military strike, Obama felt the need to respond to every statement, ratcheting up the tension between the two.
Obama acts as though the most important war he is waging is against Netanyahu, not the one he should be conducting against Iran. His rage over what he sees as Netanyahu's support for Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney is apparently driving him up the wall. Meanwhile, the Iranians are mocking the ability of these leaders to present a unified message.

Tell Pennsylvania Sens. Bob Casey and Pat Toomey: Slow Down Massive Immigration to Save Jobs for Unemployed Pennsylvania Residents
Even as hundreds of thousands of Pennsylvania workers are struggling to find a job, Congress has continued to issue 125,000 new work visas a month to immigrants and other foreign workers. This equals 1.5 million new foreign workers each year, who compete directly with Pennsylvania residents for a very limited number of Pennsylvania's jobs.
Who benefits from allowing 1.5 million new foreign workers into the U.S. each year? Certainly not the 484,000 residents of Pennsylvania who are currently unemployed. Unfortunately, Sens. Casey and Toomey have done nothing to reduce the number of foreign workers to the U.S. And as a result, unemployed Pennsylvania workers continue to suffer.
This continued failure to stand up for jobless Pennsylvania residents by Sens. Casey and Toomey is inexcusable. Your fellow unemployed Pennsylvania workers need more opportunities. Please don't delay. Send the critical message below to Pennsylvania Sens. Casey and Toomey today, urging them to reduce immigration to a more sensible level. This is a completely free service. There is no cost to you.
Dear Senators Casey and Toomey, Our nation has a proud and rich immigration tradition. However, we need to move our immigration policies into the 21st century. With unemployment numbers still high and our nation struggling to control its national debt, it is time for Congress to consider reducing overall immigration numbers. The United States gives new work permits to 1.5 million immigrants and other foreign workers each year--not including the illegal aliens who arrive. When our nation is trillions in debt and has a shortage of millions of jobs, there is simply no way to justify these numbers. Taxpayers end up subsidizing the Americans who lose their jobs because of immigration. Please support measures that would end illegal immigration and reduce legal immigration to sensible numbers. The American people are counting on you to do the right thing. Please don't let us down. Sincerely, (Your Name Will Appear Here)

Journalists Collaborate on Attacking Romney
Posted: 12 Sep 2012 03:18 PM PDT
(John Hinderaker)
There is no end to the chutzpah of the Obama administration and its enablers in the press. In the wake of violent attacks on the U.S. embassy in Cairo and consulate in Benghazi that resulted in the deaths of four Americans, including the first U.S. ambassador to be killed in the line of duty in 33 years, Barack Obama tries to pretend that the real story is Mitt Romney's criticism of the statement that the State Department released after the Cairo attack. And, incredibly, the press shows little interest in the September 11 anniversary attacks by al Qaeda members or sympathizers, and instead follow's the administration's line: it's all about Mitt!
For the record, here is Romney's statement:
I'm outraged by the attacks on American diplomatic missions in Libya and Egypt and by the death of an American consulate worker in Benghazi. It's disgraceful that the Obama Administration's first response was not to condemn attacks on our diplomatic missions, but to sympathize with those who waged the attacks.
What Romney said was precisely correct: the administration's first response was not to condemn the attacks, but to sympathize with those who waged the attacks. We wrote about that here and elsewhere. And Obama can't really disagree with what Romney said, since he disavowed responsibility for the embassy's statement and someone apparently directed the embassy to delete tweets that defended the initial apology.
Nevertheless, when Romney held a press conference to talk about these events, what happened? Reporters collaborated to make sure that appropriately hostile questions were asked, "no matter who he calls on." The Right Scoop picked up reporters planning their attack on Romney on an open microphone. (What is it with liberals and open microphones?) You really should watch the video; I would put it up here, but it doesn't appear to be embeddable.
This is quite remarkable: when Democrats alleged foreign policy failures during the Bush administration, do you remember hostile questions from reporters along the lines of, how dare you question the administration's foreign policies? Don't you know politics stops at the water's edge? No, I don't remember it that way, either.
STEVE adds: I was about to post on this outrageous story too, and will add a term that Dr. Marty Fox, a frequent caller to the Bill Bennett show, passed along to me one day: he calls the mainstream media "Presstitutes." I like it.

Is This Obama's Chicago Swan?
Posted: 12 Sep 2012 03:05 PM PDT
(Steven Hayward)
Everyone is by now familiar with Nassim Taleb's idea of low probability, high impact "black swan" events that come seemingly out of nowhere to disrupt the world as we know it. The events of the last 48 hours look like they might be Obama's black swan, except that we can't say "black swan" and "Obama" in the same sentence because that would be, you know. . . racist or something. So I'll call it a "Chicago swan" instead, especially given the salience of the Chicago teachers' strike. Wait, what's that? I can't say "Chicago" either?
Anyway, it is interesting that it was the "black swan" event of the collapse of Lehman Brothers at almost exactly this point in the 2008 campaign that upended the race and tilted the outcome to Obama's favor. Up to that point, McCain-Palin were leading in most polls by 3- 5 points, and it was Obama who was jittery and making mistakes on the campaign trail. (Remember when he "inadvertently" called Palin a pig?)
So one has to wonder whether the events in the Middle East will do in Obama with the middle class in the Middle West (of the U.S. that is). Walter Russell Mead thinks the roof is falling in. But he also cautions rightly that Republicans need to respond carefully:
Yesterday's events damage President Obama because they call into question the story the campaign wants to tell-that President Obama is a calm and laid-back, though ultimately decisive person who brings order to a dangerous world and can be trusted with the car keys. But if Republicans respond by looking wild eyed and excitable (remember John McCain's response to the financial crisis in 2008?), bad times will actually rally people to stick with the devil they know.
Meanwhile, buried in Mead's reflections today is a little detail that is being lost in the shuffle of today's more dramatic news: the German Constitutional Court (their Supreme Court, as the name implies) ruled this morning that the Euro bailout scheme passed constitutional muster. This did not surprise me, but still the case was the Eurozone equivalent of the Obamacare case: had the German court ruled otherwise (as it quite plausibly could have), the Eurozone would be in a full blown financial panic this afternoon. As it is the day of reckoning has probably only been postponed, but not solved, by this decision. So that swan in Obama's future is perhaps still turning b-- behind a screen somewhere.

Spring Fever, part 2

(Scott Johnson)
In "Spring Fever, part 1," we posted Andrew McCarthy's comments on current events related to his incredibly timely new Encounter Books ebook, Spring Fever: The Illusion of Islamic Democracy. Encounter Books publisher Roger Kimball writes that this is Encounter's first ebook only book. Roger also advises that the book files have been posted to the major vendors and should be live in a day or two, although the book is available for pre-order now: "We were going to wait until next week to roll this out but the tragic events in Libya and Egypt over the last day or so vividly corroborate Andy's argument - that those who hoped that the rise of the Muslim Brotherhood and other Islamist groups in Egypt, Libya, and other Middle Eastern countries betokens not the burgeoning of beneficent democracy but rather a descent into theocratic tyranny - that we decided to broadcast news of the book now."
Roger writes that the short video below (produced by my daughter Eliana Johnson for Encounter) "was made last week, but it might have been made last night on the streets of Benghazi or Cairo." Please check out the video and consider ordering this important new book.

Spring Fever, part 1
Posted: 12 Sep 2012 02:06 PM PDT
(Scott Johnson)
Andrew C. McCarthy is the former Assistant United States Attorney who prosecuted the Blind Sheikh and his friends for the 1993 World Trade Center bombing. After he secured convictions, he recounted what he had learned along the way in Willful Blindness: A Memoir of the Jihad. When it comes to understanding the Islamist war against the United States, Andy is like Walt Whitman: He is the man, he suffer'd, he was there. I find myself returning regularly to this book.
Andy has stayed on the case. In The Grand Jihad: How Islam and the Left Sabotage America, Andy followed up with a closely argued account of Islamist designs on, and inroads in, the United States. In a sense, the book provides a counterpart to David Horowitz's The Unholy Alliance: Radical Islam and the American Left. Whereas Horowitz's book focused on the Left, McCarthy focused on the Islamists, elaborating on events that have occurred and lessons we have learned since Horowitz's book was published in 2004.
Andy's new book - to be published presently as an ebook by Encounter Books, available for preorder now - is the incredibly timely Spring Fever: The Illusion of Islamic Democracy. Encounter Books publisher Roger Kimball advises that he has moved up the publication date of the book in light of the events of the past day and that it should be live on ebook outlets within a day or two.
In part 2, we post a video with Andy discussing the book. Here Andy graciously responds to my request for his comments reflecting on current events related to the themes of his new book. He writes:
As shown all too clearly by the atrocities committed at our diplomatic missions in Egypt and Libya - on the anniversary of 9/11, of all days - there is a dear price to be paid for remaining willfully blind to the ascendancy of Islamic supremacism. That is the major theme of Spring Fever: The Illusion of Islamic Democracy.
What we are seeing play out in the Middle East, with discernible overtones in our own country, is no "Arab Spring." The regnant narrative of Muslim masses yearning for freedom and finally throwing off the yoke of dictatorship is a fairy tale. What we are witnessing is the phenomenon of choice exercised in a different civilization, a civilization in which the concept of freedom - "perfect slavery" or total submission to Allah's law - is virtually the opposite of Western liberty.
That we've failed to come to grips with this stubborn fact is understandable, although that we should remain in the dark after decades of attacks on America is inexcusable. The brute reality is that Islamic supremacism is not the fringe ideology of terrorists; it is the mainstream Islam of the Middle East.
Poll after poll, and now election after election, tells us that strong majorities of Muslims desire to live under sharia. However sharia may be interpreted by Muslims who have embraced life in the West, it is, in Islamic supremacist ideology, a totalitarian framework for society: All aspects of life - from economic and political affairs, to military campaigns, down to relations between the sexes and mundane matters of hygiene - are dictated by the repressive teachings of classical sharia, enforced by the Islamic state.
It is not that Islamic supremacists do not grasp our way of life. It is that they reject it as corrupt and dissolute. They firmly believe their own standards are not merely superior but mandatory - and that they are under a divine command to spread them until they are globally dominant. Those standards are antithetical to Western democracy, beginning with our fundamental premise that people are free to make law for themselves and chart their own destiny, irrespective of any religious or ideological code.
Spring Fever argues that what is called the "Arab Spring" has already happened, in Turkey. There, despite a decades-long secularization project and embrace of the West, the Islamist regime of Recep Tayyip Erdogan has returned the nation to the Islamist column in less than a decade.
Erdogan followed the Muslim Brotherhood's gradualist, rigorously disciplined approach, which systematically enables a dedicated minority faction to erode democratic principles and undermine their guardians. In the Arab Middle East, where no similar, thoroughgoing effort to suppress Islam in the public square was ever attempted, Islamization will happen much more rapidly. Indeed, in Egypt, Mohamed Morsi has accomplished in a matter of weeks what Erdogan needed years to achieve.

Obama's Perverse Middle East Policy Bears Fruit
Posted: 12 Sep 2012 10:55 AM PDT
(John Hinderaker)
It would not be fair to blame yesterday's disasters in Egypt and Libya entirely on Barack Obama's failed Middle East policies. The Muslim extremists who attacked our embassy and consulate are alone responsible for their actions; they are, as a former president memorably put it, evildoers. Nothing we say about American foreign policy excuses them to the slightest degree.
It is nevertheless true that what happened yesterday in Egypt and Libya is directly related to the perverse policies that the Obama administration has followed for the past four years. Obama's policies in the region are inconsistent, and Obama himself has never tried to reconcile them. He insisted that Hosni Mubarak must go, even though Mubarak was America's best friend among Arab leaders. Mubarak himself held Obama largely responsible for his downfall. If Mubarak were still in power, yesterday's outrages in Cairo, which were led by al Qaeda members or sympathizers, would not have occurred.
Obama eagerly lent American military power to the overthrow of Muammar Gaddafi in Libya. Unlike Mubarak, Gaddafi was no friend of the United States. But he had abandoned his support for terrorism and his quest for weapons of mass destruction. Still, he had to go; because of the humanitarian crisis, Obama told us. If Gaddafi were still in power, yesterday's attack in Benghazi, which was also carried out by al Qaeda members or sympathizers celebrating the anniversary of September 11, would not have happened.
Then there is Syria, which is headed by a dictator who is bitterly hostile to the U.S. and is Iran's principal regional ally. The humanitarian crisis in Syria is far worse than anything that happened in Libya. Yet the Obama administration sits on the sidelines.
And let's not forget Iraq. Poor George Bush must feel left out; where was the Arab Spring when he needed it? Barack Obama and many other Democrats, including members of his current foreign policy team, bitterly opposed the Iraq war on the grounds that it is illegal to overthrow a sovereign nation's government, and you can't impose democracy by force. Hey, tell it to the Libyans!
What does Obama think he is doing in the Middle East? Unlike George Bush, who gave a series of excellent speeches outlining his strategies in the region, he has never said. I suspect that he doesn't really know or, frankly, care very much. You could call his actions in the region incoherent, except that it's worse than that, especially if you take into account his hostility toward Israel. If a consistent principle can be deduced, it is that Obama wants to avoid doing anything that might advance U.S. interests. Maybe that's the answer, or maybe he just doesn't care enough to formulate a real policy.
Be that as it may, one thing is clear: but for Obama's feckless participation in the overthrow of Egypt's and Libya's governments, yesterday's events would not have happened. It will be interesting to see whether reporters ask Obama hard questions about the fruits of his policies, or whether they instead follow the newly-discovered rule that foreign policy is not to be discussed during an election year.

World awaits Obama's response to 'act of war'
The Telegraph
The destruction of diplomatic premises resulting in the murder of an ambassador would amount to an act of war. But the violence did not take place in a hostile country that could be attacked or embargoed. The most serious attack on a U.S. mission since the storming of the country's embassy in Tehran in 1979 has occurred in a nation that Washington claims to have liberated from tyranny. Read & Comment

Obama's "canary in the coal mine" is on his last legs
Sep 12, 2012 06:13 am | Coach Collins
By Derrick Hollenbeck, staff writer
The Jewish vote in presidential politics has never been very big., only around two percent. Yet the significance of how Jews vote can not be overstated. Since such data was first collected no Democrat has ever won the presidency with less than 2/3 of the Jewish vote. In 2008 Barack Obama got 78%Jewish support, but as they say, that was then and this is now. Obama has done everything possible to insult and belittle Israel and those who love the Jewish State.
The snubs of Israeli officials including Benjamin Netanyahu its Prime Minister. Obama's stubborn insistence that Jerusalem is NOT the capital of Israel has turned a "little point" turned into a major attack on Israel's sense of confidence in Obama and America.
His stated refusal to help Israel in the event of a necessary attack on Iran's nuclear weapons factories has all but killed the once ... Continue Reading:Obama's "canary in the coal mine" is on his last legs

By Bill Federer, staff writer
"Freedom itself was attacked this morning by a faceless coward, and freedom will be defended," spoke President Bush, SEPTEMBER 11, 2001, after Islamic terrorists hijacked passenger jets, flying two into New York's World Trade Center, one into the Pentagon and one which crashed in Pennsylvania. That evening President Bush stated: "Thousands of lives were suddenly ended by evil, despicable acts of terror. Pictures of planes flying into buildings, fires burning, huge structures collapsing have filled us with disbelief, terrible sadness and a quiet, unyielding anger." President Bush continued: "America was targeted...because we're the brightest beacon for freedom and opportunity in the world...I ask for your prayers for all those who grieve...I pray they will be comforted by a power greater than any of us spoken through the ages in Psalm 23: 'Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil for ...

Obama's 2012 strategy: Fear, Fraud and a cowardly Republican
Sep 11, 2012 01:13 pm | Coach Collins
by Doug Book, staff writer
This piece was published on September 23rd, 2011 on Coach is Right. Has Mitt Romney followed in John McCain's timid, politically fearful footsteps, afraid to use Marxist and Barack Obama in the same sentence? Or with less than 2 months until election day, has Romney taken the fight to Obama, proving himself unafraid of a race card waiting for play by the Regime and its wholly owned MSM subsidiary?
With little more than a year remaining before the 2012 vote, even the hyper-arrogant Barack Obama must be getting a bit edgy about his dwindling chances of re-election.
Three years ago, mouthing vacuous speeches and making vacant promises, Obama lied, schemed and intimidated his way into the White House while his campaign committee of left wing journalists provided critical cover for personal and political histories which would have doomed the candidate had they seeped through the wall of media silence.
But although Obama could be ... Continue Reading:Obama's 2012 strategy: Fear, Fraud and a cowardly Republican

Wednesday, September 12, 2012 To: Friends & Supporters From: Gary L. Bauer COUNTDOWN TO VICTORY: 55 DAYS TO THE 2012 ELECTIONS Click here to listen now. Middle East In Flames The news from the Middle East seems like déjà vu. American embassies under attack; U.S. flags ripped down; mobs chanting "Death to America!" Sadly, it's not a bad mind trick, but the bad reality of Barack Obama's failed foreign policy. Once again, Obama's constant kowtowing to radical Islam has borne poisonous fruit. A dedicated civil servant, Ambassador Christopher Stevens, was brutally murdered last night along with Sean Smith, a foreign service officer, and two U.S. Marines. Photos suggest Stevens was dragged half-naked through the streets. According to CBS News, Libyan security forces moved Ambassador Stevens and his colleagues from the consulate to a supposedly more secure building. But then members of the Libyan security team reportedly directed the mob to the second building. Obama praised those security forces this morning, although there is no evidence they did their jobs. In addition to the attack on Ambassador Stevens, the American embassy in Cairo, Egypt, was temporarily overrun yesterday. Radical Islamists scaled the walls, tore down the U.S. flag and raised a black flag that read, "There is no God but Allah, and Mohammad is his messenger." These attacks in Egypt and Libya were quickly blamed on a web video (which virtually no one has seen or heard of) that is critical of Mohammad. Prior to the attack on the embassy in Cairo, the staff released the following statement:
"The Embassy of the United States in Cairo condemns the continuing efforts by misguided individuals to hurt the religious feelings of Muslims -- as we condemn efforts to offend believers of all religions. ... Respect for religious beliefs is a cornerstone of American democracy. We firmly reject the actions by those who abuse the universal right of free speech to hurt the religious beliefs of others."
If only the Obama Administration were as concerned about the feelings of American Catholics and evangelicals, whose feelings -- and rights -- it is trampling with Obamacare and its efforts to redefine marriage. Yet on the anniversary of 9/11, Obama embassy officials release this abject apology to Muslims condemning their fellow Americans for exercising their free speech rights. Last night, Governor Mitt Romney's campaign blasted that pathetic statement, saying, "It's disgraceful that the Obama Administration's first response was not to condemn attacks on our diplomatic missions, but to sympathize with those who waged the attacks." The Obama campaign said it was "shocked" by Romney's "political attack." Yet the White House also condemned the embassy statement, saying, "The statement by Embassy Cairo was not cleared by Washington and does not reflect the views of the United States government." What made the embassy think such a statement was a good idea in the first place? No matter how hard the White House tries to deny it, there is no doubt that the bureaucrats in Cairo were simply reflecting the left-wing, politically correct mindset of the administration they serve! But let's not lose sight of the bigger issue here. There is no movie, speech, photograph, painting, picture, essay, etc., that causes these murderous outbursts. Those are merely the excuses for such violence. What causes these attacks is a radical Islamic infrastructure that keeps thousands of people on the edge of murderous rampages. They are pushed over the edge whenever one of these convenient excuses emerges. Radical Islam is violent! That Obama and Clinton don't understand this is why more dead Americans will come home in body bags in the days ahead. Government sources now suggest these attacks were likely coordinated, may have involved the use of heavy weapons and were planned for the anniversary of the 9/11 attacks. Yet the Obama Administration played right into the charade of "Muslim outrage" over our alleged insensitivity. Don't fall for the claptrap that a filmmaker is responsible. It is also a reflection of Obama's weak approach to foreign policy. His outreach to the Muslim world, his grand speech in Cairo, his letter to the ayatollah, his embrace of the Arab Spring -- all of it was naïve. Clearly it has not won us any friends or brought stability to the region. This morning, Governor Romney faced reporters and stood by his indictment of Obama's weakness, saying, "I think it's a terrible course for America to stand in apology for our values. When our grounds are being attacked and being breached ... the first response of the United States must be outrage at the breach of the sovereignty of our nation. An apology for America's values is never the right course." Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said today, "The lack of leadership is about to lead to an explosion in the Middle East, and I hope people will start to focus on foreign policy, because it really does matter." On every front -- economic, national security and social issues -- Obama's instincts are not those of the average America.

Russian War Ships used as backdrop for Democratic convention Veterans Tribute
Wow, now that is a huge mistake! Will you see this on MSNBC? NO! Had this been the Republican Convention we would be the laughing stock of the liberal media. These huge pictures appeared during the tribute to veterans.
The backdrop for a Democratic National Convention tribute to U.S. military veterans was apparently a fleet of Russian warships.
The event occurred on the final night of last week's convention when retired Adm. John Nathman paid tribute to veterans, in front of a gigantic screen that showed what appears to be ships from the Russian Federation Navy, according to The Navy Times.
At least two experts told the publication they were certain the ships were Russian and that the backdrop image appears to be a composite photo that includes U.S. trainer jets flying overhead.
The background shows four ships with radar designs apparently not used in the U.S. fleet.

First, the U.S. embassy in Cairo was swarmed by thousands of protesters who tore down the flag and replaced it with terrorist slogans. But things really got even uglier when a U.S. ambassador and three staffers were killed in Libya while attempting to evacuate their embassy which came under attack. Glenn reacts on radio today.

Too bad anyone watching those networks will not get to know the real Mitt Romney -- here's the truth, and it's amazing.
