Unbelievable! Just imagine yourself in September 2001. Someone drops-in from the future to tell you that before the decade is over, the President of the United States (middle-named “Hussein” by the way) will talk about making nice with the Taliban.
I still say that the definition of torture cannot possibly include anything that people are willing to endure in order to protest it. I posted an example before and pointed out that the guy in the video actually paid $800 to have it done and then laughed about it a few minutes later.
A quick YouTube search reveals that there is apparently a long line of leftists, including Christopher Hitchens, who are perfectly happy to be “tortured” on video to demonstrate how unacceptable waterboarding is supposed to be.
Yeah, letting terrorists out of jail early when you don’t even know the facts of the case is perfectly “reasonable.” Don’t worry. Jimmy Carter and a bunch of left-wing Congressmen who Hillary wants to curry favor with say it’s okay. That’s not improper political influence over the Justice Department.
Thanks, Eric Holder.
UPDATE: Okay, this is too […]
Debra Burlingame reminds us in her anniversary article today that it is important to look directly at the horror rather than blunting it with euphemisms:
Our fellow human beings were not “lost” in 1993 or on 9/11. They were torn to pieces. We must not give the enemy any quarter. We must confront the reality of […]
That cracking sound you hear is the foundation of liberal academia at Boston College beginning to crumble under the weight of truth spoken by Dinesh D’Souza.
I’d love to see the video of D’Souza taking apart the “star professor” and head of the religion center at BC, Alan Wolfe. Then we could see for ourselves […]
CNN aired some much-watch tv tonight. Excellent stuff.
While London’s Dhimmi mayor, Ken Livingstone, defends Muslims in the wake of a Muslim terrorist attack, Tony Blair goes out with a bang, ripping into Islamists for nurturing a false sense of grievance:
“The idea that as a Muslim in this country that you don’t have the freedom to express your religion or your views, I […]
From The Guardian: Relativism has made liberal openness appear weak, empty and repugnant compared with the clarity of dogma[.] …The clash of civilisations is happening not between Islam and the west, as we are often led to believe, but between pragmatic relativism and dogmatic certainty. * * * What was shocking when Nietzsche […]
I saw this on the Corner.
American commanders cite al-Qaida’s severe brand of Islam, which is so extreme that in Baqouba, al-Qaida has warned street vendors not to place tomatoes beside cucumbers because the vegetables are different genders, Col. David Sutherland said.

Thank goodness. Iran has told us what to think about the tragedy at Virginia Tech:
“Attacking innocent people, irrespective of their race and nationality, is contrary to divine and human values no matter which group or person carries out such an act under any name,” the Iranian statement said.
Yeah, I guess the Mullahs […]
