Obama nominee for UN Ambassador promoted US force against Israel

Let me say this plainly:  a man who grew up basted in communism; spent his formative academic years studying socialism, black liberation theology, critical race theory, and Orientalism; sat in the pews of a church whose pastor preached anti-Americanism, racial separatism, and anti-Semitism; then entered the academy as faculty to rub shoulders with the radical chic lefties of all stripes, the majority of whom self-select based in part on their

Upside down world: Sebellius acts the part of conservatives; conservatives cry for statism

I’ve resisted commenting on the story of the 10-year-old girl and her need of a lung transplant, mostly because when I first heard of it I believed HHS Secretary Sebellius was (happily!) correct:  it isn’t, nor should it be, in her control to throw around waivers:  there are established protocols for organ donation and scores issued for where people are placed on lists precisely because we wish to remove the

“Report: Gov’t scooping up Verizon phone records”

FISA, the return! The National Security Agency has been collecting the telephone records of millions of U.S. customers of Verizon under a top secret court order, according to a report in Britain’s Guardian newspaper. The order was granted by the secret Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court on April 25 and is good until July 19, the newspaper reported Wednesday. The order requires Verizon, one of the nation’s largest telecommunications companies, on

Left-feminist lesbian heckler of Michelle Obama blasted as demonstrating “white privilege” [Darleen Click]

Live by identity politics, die by identity politics. Blogger Gene Demby assembled tweets demonstrating that many NPR listeners thought Michelle Obama’s lesbian heckler Ellen Sturtz was employing “white privilege” and the media coverage seemed racist. When Michelle Obama squared off with a heckler at a private fundraiser last night, the racial context was hard to ignore: a white woman yelling at the country’s most visible black woman and that same

“The president’s dishonesty, incompetence, vengefulness and lack of moral compass lead many to suggest that he is not fit to lead.”

This is how you do it: Keep an eye on this kid. He is one of us. (h/t Mark Levin)

Hey, parents! Here’s what you’re taking out that second mortgage for!

So, you mean the feds, like, totally fucked over a number of our fellow citizens? Awesome! Because we’ve been taught that like, the people who were rightly fucked over by a government adored by Hollywood thinkers and socially-conscious green-adoring pop singers, are racist subhuman extremists, anyway — and it is perfectly acceptable to be intolerant of intolerance, to hate hate hate the hateful hatey haters. Hell, even a number of

As you’re watching Becky Gerritson, in testimony to Ways and Means Committee, declare her independence…

…do not fail to notice that at least 11 people on YouTube reject the call for individual autonomy and a life led free from the presumptuous meddling of nanny state bureaucrats, opportunistic and cynical politicians, and black-robed philosopher kings who believe their own judgments to be the last word on any subject — even those they have no business deciding upon. That is, at least 11 people who’ve viewed the

“11-Yr-Old Suspended From School For Merely TALKING About Guns”

I ask you, even you Democrats and heel-dug Obama defenders who are committed to the man because you invested your trust and franchise in him, either because you bought his bromides and bullshit, or because Rush Limbaugh’s talk about Obama phones reeked of racism, and you refused to be part of that (though evidently, the institutionalized racialism in the Civil Rights Division and at the Justice Department wasn’t a factor

Obama flips the bird at the American public [Darleen Click]

Susan Rice replaces Tom Donilon as National Security advisor In a move sure to provoke congressional Republicans, President Obama is nominating embattled U.N. Ambassador Susan E. Rice Wednesday to serve as his national security adviser. The White House also confirmed that Mr. Obama is nominating former aide Samantha Power, who once referred to Hillary Rodham Clinton as a “monster” in the 2008 Democratic presidential primary, to succeed Ms. Rice as

“Kindergarten and the Kafkaesque”

Prompted by stories of public schools engaging in what amounts, in all seriousness, to child abuse, routinely now targeted at children who don’t hew to the progressive messaging orthodoxy, Daren Jonescu plumbs the heart of the thing and comes away with some crucial insights: […] Needless to say, not one of these cases [cap gun, Lego gun, Pop-Tart “gun,” etc] involves an actual threat or danger to anyone. Nor do
