George Will and the rest of the pundit class should be sitting at his feet, taking notes.
It’s going to take a generation to clean up the damage this clown occupying the Oval Office has done.
If we have to have a foreign usurper for President, why couldn’t it have been Mark Steyn?
Just damn.
I remember the fall of the Shah of Iran, a boat load of rich polital refugees moved into my town from Tehran. I used to babysit their kids. Expect a huge influx of wealthy Muslim escapees from the middle eastern countries.
It was bound to happen. The nature of our voting process nearly ensures that we swing from one direction to the other every 4 to 8 years, and every leader spends a fair amount of time and money trying to bring the Titanic around from port to starboard, or vice versa. The result is a staggering path leading nowhere in particular. A leading nation must be consistent. The reason Great Britain was able to lead for so long, I suspect, is because they had monarchs who were able to remain at the helm for decades at a time. Nothing says stability like a queen who hangs in there for over half a century.
Americans are the best people on earth. But they are still just people.
“You know things are bad when Mark Steyn cannot find humor in it.”
Exactly. bttt
“Michele Bachmann recently stated that she, as a member of the Congressional Intelligence Committee, was even more concerned about the threat to our security than she was about the threat to our economy-and she is very, very concerned about the economy to the degree that she advocates stockpiling survival provisions. It may be that there is something up of a truly serious security threat and Congress feels that it must set up a framework for a society in chaos, or in rubble? Bachmann, of course, said she could not reveal more.” ~ nathanbedford

Be sure and read BOTH the “editorial AND reader reviews” at Amazon on:
Catherine Herridge’s New Book — ‘The Next Wave: On the Hunt for Al Qaeda’s American Recruits’
http://www.amazon.com/Next-Wave-Qaedas-American-Recruits/dp/0307885259
The next wave of deadly terror is here and now. Washington shuts its eyes. And the next massacre in the name of Islam will be “Made in the U.S.A.”
TERROR WALKS AMONG US. Born here, raised here, plotting here, the terrorists of al Qaeda 2.0 aim to kill Americans. And our government helps.
Who are the recruits for the next wave? They live next door.
A radicalized army major guns down forty-five, killing twelve soldiers and one civilian; an airport shuttle-bus driver plots a subway slaughter; a legal immigrant tries to blow up Times Square while another fanatic hopes to kill hundreds at a Christmas tree–lighting ceremony . . . and a radical Muslim born in New Mexico has a legion of fanatics in his web.
The Next Wave reveals the shocking story of how that blood-crazed American, Anwar al-Awlakinow hiding in Yemenwas treated to Pentagon pomp as a “moderate Muslim,” and how our Justice Department hid his movements from the 9/11 Commission . . . even though al-Awlaki aided the 9/11 hijackers.
The terrorists next door turn our tech against us, exploiting Facebook, Skype, and our outdated laws. Online terror recruiters are one of the Web’s greatest success storiesyet our government refuses to stop them. Activists howl about “inhuman” conditions at Guantánamowhile pampered inmates laugh at our weaknesses.
The next wave of deadly terror is here and now. Washington shuts its eyes. And the next massacre in the name of Islam will be “Made in the U.S.A.”
“Written with no-nonsense clarity, moral rigor and hard-earned expertise, The Next Wave is a landmark in investigative journalism. This book by our most-relentless reporter on national security reveals in sharp detail how Washington’s infighting, political correctness and outright duplicity enable home-grown Islamist terrorists to attack Americans—by turning our own freedoms and laws against us. Fierce, first-rate and frightening.”
Ralph Peters, former U.S. Army intelligence officer and author of Endless War: Middle-Eastern Islam vs. Western Civilization.

And it is said that now Obama is more popular than ever, in Israel.
Never again? Well maybe.
