Obama Set to Revive Military Commissions
How long before they call Obama, Hitler? Awhile if the left wing media continue to cover for him.
See here for a debunking of the Post's report.

Nine Killed In Drone Attack in Pakistan
Sky News reports.
Expanded wire taps, rendition continues, Gitmo and Bagram still open, drone attacks continue, civilians killed in Afghanistan and Obama hates polar bears to - change - what change?
"The attacks have increased in the past year and there has been no let-up since US President Barack Obama took office in January."
Expanded wire taps, rendition continues, Gitmo and Bagram still open, drone attacks continue, civilians killed in Afghanistan and Obama hates polar bears to - change - what change?
Krauthammer’s Take
from last night.
"Well, what I love is the name of the bill. Imagine if you have to vote against the Keep Terrorists out of America Act.
And, you know, the mainstream media portraying this as Republicans desperately seizing on an issue as a way to embarrass the Obama administration. Well, that's what an opposition does. And it isn't as if terrorists running around in America is not a serious issue.
But I think what is really interesting about it, and the reason it is going to get traction, is because it symbolizes the degree to which Democrats were hypocritical and irresponsible in attacking the Bush administration and all the measures it took in keeping us safe in the war on terror.
For example, the wiretapping, which it attacked as a trashing of the constitution, is now being continued. We have the rendition policy, an attack on human rights, is also being continued. The military commissions, which Obama himself had said had been a failure, all of a sudden the Obama administration is resurrecting it."
Democrats briefed 40 times on interrogations
Thanks to Obama's inexperience the Democrats are being exposed. Obama screwed up big time when he let the CIA out to dry. Glenn has a big round up of links to many stories on Torturegate.
Obama sticks with Bush-era polar bear rule
It's breathtaking how much Bush-era policies Obama is keeping.
The left really are a bunch of suckers.

Clinton Calls For "Patience" With North Korea
U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Thursday that the U.S. and its negotiating partners may have to "show some patience" before nuclear disarmament talks with North Korea can resume.
North Korea says shove it.
Democrats are such putzs.
North Korea says shove it.
"There is nothing to be gained by sitting down together with a party that continues to view us with hostility."
Democrats are such putzs.
Haliburton rules the world
That's what some of my left leaning friends claim. The thing is, Haliburton didn't even make it in the top 100.
U.S. warns of consequences for North Korea nuclear test
But I thought Obama was making friends will everyone.
Ooooo, another nasty letter coming?
""If the North Koreans decide to carry out a second nuclear test, we will deal with the consequences of that. And there will be consequences," Bosworth told reporters after meeting South Korea's foreign minister.
"But we can't control at this stage what North Korea does."
Ooooo, another nasty letter coming?
Muslim dentist refuses treatment without hijab
Fire his ass!
But that's a lie and he knows it. The veil is not a religious symbol but is in fact a radical Islamic political statement.
See.
"The GDC heard how Butt believed it was his duty to stop Muslim patients committing what he believed was a religious sin."
But that's a lie and he knows it. The veil is not a religious symbol but is in fact a radical Islamic political statement.
"It is the second time that the dentist - who is the brother of a former spokesman of the radical Islamic group al-Muhajiroun - has appeared before the council's disciplinary panel on similar allegations."
See.
Obama tells journalists what to report
Time to call Obama Hitler yet?
"And he told journalists directly that they should stress the fact that the cuts are "significant" – a surprisingly direct appeal to reporters concerning which angle they should take in their coverage. "
CIA Says Pelosi Was Briefed on Use of 'Enhanced Interrogations'
She lied. No big surprise there as lying is what Democrats do most and best.
Obama made a big mistake in alienating the CIA and now it's payback time.
Now, let's release the CIA memos that prove we got good actionable intelligence from the program.
Obama made a big mistake in alienating the CIA and now it's payback time.
"Intelligence officials released documents this evening saying that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) was briefed in September 2002 about the use of harsh interrogation tactics against al-Qaeda prisoners, seemingly contradicting her repeated statements over the past 18 months that she was never told that these techniques were actually being used."
Now, let's release the CIA memos that prove we got good actionable intelligence from the program.

Geert Wilders’ Ten Point Plan
1. Stop cultural relativism. We need an article in our constitutions that lays down that we have a Jewish-Christian and humanism culture.
2. Stop pretending that Islam is a religion. Islam is a totalitarian ideology. In other words, the right to religious freedom should not apply to Islam.
3. Stop mass immigration by people from Muslim countries. We have to end Al-Hijra.
4. Encourage voluntary repatriation.
5. Expel criminal foreigners and criminals with dual nationality, after denationalization, and send them back to their Arab countries. Likewise, expel all those who incite to a ‘violent jihad’.
6. We need an European First Amendment to strengthen free speech.
7. Have every member of a non-Western minority sign a legally binding contract of assimilation.
8. We need a binding pledge of allegiance in all Western countries.
9. Stop the building of new mosques. As long as no churches or synagogues are allowed to be build in countries like Saudi-Arabia we will not allow one more new mosque in our western countries. Close all mosques where incitement to violence is taking place. Close all Islamic schools, for they are fascist institutions and young children should not be educated an ideology of hate and violence.
10. Get rid of the current weak leaders. We have the privilege of living in a democracy. Let’s use that privilege and exchange cowards for heroes. We need more Churchills and less Chamberlains.
HT Harry's Place who disagree with Wilders. I say he's spot on and not a bigot for it.

Specter: Reid Promised Seniority
Specter gets punked.
Specter you putz, you forgot you were dealing with Democrats.
"Sen. Arlen Specter (D-Pa.) today said he was guaranteed seniority on committees by Majority Leader Harry M. Reid (D-Nev.) in the final negotiations before his party switch last week, talks that, according to Specter, also included a pledge that he would become the next chairman of the Judiciary Committee in several years.
Specter stood by his version of the one-on-one talks with Reid, despite the Senate leader's contradictory statements on the matter and the resolution that passed last night placing Specter in the most junior slot on most committees on which he serves. "

Eco-sailors rescued by oil tanker
Oh, the irony.
"The team, which left Mount Batten Marina in Plymouth on 19 April in a boat named the Fleur, aimed to rely on sail, solar and man power on a 580-mile (933km/h) journey to and from the highest point of the Greenland ice cap.
The expedition was followed by up to 40 schools across the UK to promote climate change awareness.
But atrocious weather dogged their journey after 27 April, culminating with the rescue on 1 May after the boat was temporarily capsized three times by the wind.
In one incident Mr Stoddart hit his head and the wind generator and solar panels were ripped from the yacht."
Obama is airraiding villiages and killing civilians
in Afghanistan. It's Obama's war now, so how does he like the label he gave Bush?
Peter Mandelson used to be a communist
Not a lot of people know that.
"He was educated at Hendon County Grammar School. In his youth, he briefly rebelled against his family's Labour tradition due to Labour's support of the USA in the Vietnam War and in 1971 left the Labour Party Young Socialists (LPYS) to join the Young Communist League, then the youth wing of the Communist Party of Great Britain. This move was partly a result of disagreements with the Trotskyist Militant tendency that had just won a majority in the LPYS nationally."
US Afghan strikes 'killed dozens'
Blares the BBC headline. As usual with the BBC, it's what they leave out that's important. Strange, but the far left wing Guardian fills in the blanks. The BBC to the left of the Guardian?
And there's this:
Leave it to the BBC to cover for the Taliban.
Update. Here's a video report on the Taliban using human shields.
"The provincial police chief, Abdul Ghafar Watandar, who accused the Taliban of using the civilians as human shields, said the death toll could be even higher."
And there's this:
"Watandar said Taliban guerrillas had herded civilians into houses in the villages of Geraani and Ganj Abad, that were then struck by warplanes.
"The fighting was going on in another village, but the Taliban escaped to these two villages, where they used people as human shields."

Charge against student wearing NOBAMA shirt dropped
I hope he sues their asses off.
He should sue the school, city and the cops.
"Criminal charges against a junior at Dakota Ridge High School, who wore a T-shirt saying "NOBAMA" before an appearance and speech last fall by Michelle Obama at the school, were dropped Thursday.
Blake Benson, 17, was one of three students at the school who chose to "stay and campaign" for Sen. John McCain when Michelle Obama spoke at the school on Nov. 3.
At the time of his arrest, Benson was holding a McCain-Palin campaign sign.
He was handcuffed and taken to the school's administrative office, said Dan Recht, a Denver lawyer who took the case on behalf of the American Civil Liberties Union, which represented Benson. "
He should sue the school, city and the cops.
Independent newspaper to fold?
God, let's hope so.
This looks bad.
That's what happens when all you put out is left wing propaganda.
Update. Left wing American newspapers are learning the same lesson.
I hope they all fail. Maybe then more honest newspapers will rise to replace them.
This looks bad.
"Shares in the publisher have fallen by almost 90pc over the last year, taking its market capitalisation to just over €217m. "

"How I beat Canada's 'human rights' censors"
Thanks to the Internet.
But we can't be complacent as Obama is trying to enact so called "hate speech" laws as well.

Labour peer who 'claimed £100,000 on empty flat'
and lives in social housing.
The Labour peer accused of claiming £100,000 in parliamentary allowances on a vacant flat is a social housing tenant, it has been revealed.
Baroness Uddin, Britain's first female Muslim peer, faces a possible police investigation for fraud over allegations she claimed the money by saying the flat was her 'main home'.
Man stoned to death in Iran for adultery
Islam is such a beautiful religion.
This is the same Sharia law that the EU wants Britain to adopt. And this is the same Iran that the BBC's John Simpson calls a democracy.
Yeah John, a democracy that stones its citizens to death.

BBC's Simpson: Britain an US failed in Basra
As soon as I saw this BBC report was by Simpson I knew it would be Simpson's left wing bs.
Well gee John, let's not forget a small fly in the ointment here, there was a war going on at the same time.
Simpson as usual blames it all on Britain and America. Simpson fails to mention that the Iraqi economy is booming and as a result, sales of air conditioners, tv's and other electrical appliances are booming as well. The result is a higher demand for electricity. In spite of that electricity production has surpassed prewar levels. That's in large part to Britain and America's rebuilding Iraqs infrastructure which was in steep disrepair under Saddam.
Simpson also fails to point out some important facts about Iraq's water problems.
Some of these problems most surely exist in Basra as well.
Simpson ends with this: "It was a trivial enough incident. But it was also a reminder that peace and prosperity are still some way off in Basra."
That's strange John for this BBC report contradicts that mate. As does this Sky report.
"The water supply has been cut off for four days, one woman told us.
There are daily power cuts, another said. That means no air conditioning, though Basra is sweltering now, close to 38C (100F).
Six years on, people here still cannot understand how two of the world's richest countries, Britain and America, could invade Iraq and not manage to improve the basic living standards of the population."

"Baghdad still draws its water from the Tigris, but even that legendary source is problematic. President Jalal Talabani flew to Turkey this week to discuss the diminishing water flow, because Turkey has dammed the river. Syria and Iran have dammed its tributaries."...
In the absence of adequate sewers, squatters run pipes from their bathrooms into the street, turning it into a standing cesspool. The water lines are poorly sealed, and as the pressure goes down, raw sewage mixes with drinking water, not only for the squatters but also for anyone who relies on that water main.
Some of these problems most surely exist in Basra as well.

Obama disowns deficit he helped shape
Nice of AP to notice. Now, if the AP and the rest of the left wing media hadn't been in the tank for Obama during the campaign, he might not have been elected.

Official: Harman wasn't monitored by NSA
The plot thickens. Remember, Pelosi said she knew of the wiretap. Question is, did she know who was doing the wiretap?
Polish pianist stops show with anti-US tirade
But, but, they told me if Obama was elected the world would love us again.
So much for change suckers.
"Zimerman appears to have been upset by Barack Obama's decision, announced this month, to maintain the Bush-era policy of installing a missile defence shield in Poland and the Czech Republic.
Obama insisted the shield was part of a defensive posture against Iran, not Russia, and that he intended to remove it as soon as the threat from Iran subsided. But many Poles have accused the US of wanting to mount a military occupation of their country, and fear the shield could make them a target of Russian aggression."
So much for change suckers.
Muslim-owned shop bans customers wearing veils
It should be banned altogether. The veil is not a Muslim religious symbol, it is in fact a radical Islamic political statement.
Bakri Used British Taxpayers Money To Live In Luxury
It's why they call it Londonistan.
"The Muslim cleric, who lived in the UK for 20 years before being banned for preaching hate, used backdated incapacity benefits to buy his plush flat in Beirut. Speaking to the Daily Star at his latest Lebanon home in Tripoli, Bakri insists that he and fellow radicals including Anjem Choudary were justified in taking their state handouts because Britain has 'plundered' and 'colonised' Muslim countries around the world."
The Media Elite's Secret Dinners
Controlling the news.
"Still, the catered gatherings also sound rather cozy, like some secret-handshake gathering of an entrenched elite. Are the top-level officials, strategists and foreign leaders there for serious questioning or risk-free spin sessions? And what exactly is the journalistic benefit if the visitors are protected by a shield of anonymity?
The guests "have either been frank with us or provided a reasonable facsimile of frankness," says Atlantic writer Jeffrey Goldberg. "Would I like for them to be able to go on the record? Of course. But I do think you lose something because then it becomes just another press conference."
Among those in regular attendance are David Brooks and Maureen Dowd of the New York Times, Gene Robinson and Ruth Marcus of The Washington Post, NBC's David Gregory, ABC's George Stephanopoulos, PBS's Gwen Ifill, the New Yorker's Jane Mayer, Vanity Fair's Todd Purdum, former Time managing editor Walter Isaacson and staffers from Bradley's Atlantic and National Journal, including Ron Brownstein, Andrew Sullivan and Jonathan Rauch.

More Dems call for tough Iran sanctions
Obama diplomacy epic fail.
Tomorrow will be Obama's 100 days in office and he's failed miserably on every front. No help from Europe in Afghanistan or on the economy, rebuffed by Russia, N. Korea and Iran, untold number of appointees withdrawn for tax evasion and many important posts unfilled. The list goes on.
On top of that, Obama is playing politics with our security by ordering Gitmo closed but kept Bagram open. Obama criticized Bush over wire taps but expanded the program.
No wonder Obama released the interrogation memos and wants to release photographs, Obama is trying to deflect attention from all his failures.

As flu hits, holes in Obama health team
Another Obama epic fail.
Actually, Obama did choose a surgeon general. But, in another epic fail, he had to withdraw the nomination.
"The Obama administration declared a “public health emergency” Sunday to confront the swine flu — but is heading into its first medical outbreak without a secretary of Health and Human Services or appointees in any of the department’s 19 key posts.
President Barack Obama has not yet chosen a surgeon general or the head of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. His choice to run the Food and Drug Administration awaits confirmation."

Saudis clamp down on women's gyms
This is how the Islamists want the rest of us to live.
We are constantly told by Islamic apologist and Muslim speakers, that the practice of enforcing strict Islamic law, is practiced by a fringe few. Do these people consider Saudi Arabia a "fringe few".
Let's not forget about the persecution of Christians and gays as well.
"Women in Saudi Arabia are banned from driving, must wear a head-to-toe cloak when out in public and must obtain permission from a male relative to work, travel, study or marry. "
