” If not a single policeman killed a single black individual anywhere in the United States for this entire year, that would not reduce the number of black homicide victims by one percent.”

NOT to be on tonights MSM evening news.

“...When someone tries to lay a guilt trip on you for being successful, remember that your guilt is some politician’s license to take what you worked for and give it to someone else who is more likely to vote for the politician who plays Santa Claus with your money...”

Sowell has a knack for an economy-of-words argument.

I’m not a sucker for these “White guilt” dramas. But my new business is not successful yet so I could not feel guilty about success in that area. But I do feel something of a growing hostility toward government at all levels throwing up roadblocks to success.

Presidents come and go but, Congress has the real imperative in international relationships.

Want that treaty to be signature to your history? Get Congress to go along with it.

In 1998, Congress authorized the Iraq Liberation Act, ***UNANIMOUSLY****

That same congress actually walked Bill Clinton through its imperatives and he then signed it.

Sadaam was going to leave Iraq of his own free will and accord or he would leave in a box.

The Iraq Liberation Act spelled out USA Policy and intention.

3 years later, under a new President and through the lense of 911, we invaded Iraq.

Enough was enough.

I suspect this Congress has a similar authorization bill tee’d up, ready for vote overwhelming passage and requiring the signature of this President, so the next responsible administration can do what is necessary.

That authorization will be signed by this president or the next, period.

Barack does not want his hand on anything that might make him responsible for initiating war,

“Demographic “diversity” is a notion often defended with fervor but seldom with facts.”

That is a great one. Really amazing for concise truth.

“Some people see discrimination when schools punish black students more often than white students. But schools punish white students more often than Asian students. Lenders turn down black applicants for loans more often than white applicants — but they turn down whites more often than Asians. Most statistics on such things omit Asians, rather than spoil a politically correct story.”

DING DING DING DING DING!!!!

Orientals - the race that doesn’t count.

Orientals matter! (I know; that’s too unPC even for Sowell?)

His complicity in Iran's moving toward nuclear bombs has alarmed some top Senate Democrats enough to get them to join Republicans in opposition to the Obama administration's potentially suicidal foreign policy.

Yet those same RATs will remain in denial about their messiah being on the side of the enemy, along with his incompetence.
