American Glob

While perusing Michelle Malkin’s website today, I found the platform of Peace Through Strength. While all 10 items on their platform list are rather inspiring, number 4 jumped off the page for reasons that should be obvious to all Americans.

4. A nation free of Shariah, the brutally repressive and anti-Constitutional totalitarian program that governs in Saudi Arabia, Iran and other Islamic states and that terrorists are fighting to impose worldwide.

Sharia law is not only incompatible with the United States Constitution, it flies in the face of every idea upon which America was founded.

Some on the left would deride this mention of Sharia law in America as paranoid and anti-Islam. Nothing could be further from the truth.

Muslims in America are free to practice their religion, just like everyone else. Let me say that again, Muslims in America are free to practice their religion, just like everyone else.

If however, religious zealots of any faith seek to impose their values on others under law, then the freedom of all Americans has been compromised and that is unacceptable.

If you think that could never happen here, you’re wrong.

Let’s deal in reality, shall we?

Yesterday, the NAACP passed a resolution calling the Tea Party “racist.”

Of course, they haven’t made a peep about the New Black Panther voter intimidation case.

The video below shows Andrew Breitbart and civil rights activist Michael Myers discussing the political double standard with Sean Hannity and agreeing.

Allahpundit knows what I’m talking about.

If the NAACP is a non-partisan group, did they defend….

Kenneth Gladney? NOPE.

Michelle Malkin? OOPS!

Republican, Cedra Crenshaw? CRICKETS.

Funny that.

Michelle Malkin was on the Hannity Show last night and broke down Obama’s lame response to the oil disaster in the gulf. When in doubt, just appoint another CZAR!

Be sure to read Malkin’s new article “Stuck on Stupid, Obama’s czar fetish”

Hat tip to ZIP.

Liberal commentator Alan Colmes appeared on Megyn Kelly’s FOX News program yesterday and claimed that there’s no such thing as radical Islam.

Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl couldn’t be reached for comment because in 2002, an Islamic radical used a knife to cut Daniel Pearl’s head off, while he was completely awake without any type of anesthesia.

Meanwhile, liberal media outlets continue to insist that recent attempted terror attacks on the US have absolutely nothing to do with radical Islam. After all, things like that don’t happen in liberal places like Massachusetts.

Left Bank of the Charles breaks it down: You might be a terrorist if…

Attorney General Eric Holder can’t even say the words, neither can Obama.

It’s not that hard to figure out who’s attacking America, you just have to live in reality.

Our leaders apparently, do not.

UPDATE: Gateway Pundit links. Thanks!

Obama donor and generally batshit crazy leftist Norman Leboon has been arrested for making death threats to Republican Eric Cantor. Michelle Malkin has all the details here.

But some crafty internet searchers at Free Republic dug up this little morsel which I have screen capped for posterity.

Was Norman “The Loon” Leboon a HuffPoster? Sure looks that way. Click the image to enlarge.

Things aren’t looking good for Florida Governor Charlie Crist. His rival for the Republican nomination in the Florida senate race, Marco Rubio, is now leading by 18 points. Wow!

TALLAHASSEE — The Florida Chamber rolled out its latest poll for members today at their annual Capitol Days meeting, and it’s yet more bad news for Gov. Charlie Crist.

The poll supposedly found Marco Rubio up 48-30 over Crist in the U.S. Senate primary. Back in October, the chamber’s usually trustworthy surveying found Crist leading Rubio 44-30.

This might explain why brain dead talking heads such as MSNBC’s Donny Deutsch are already sharpening their claws for attack. Witness the network which loves to accuse people of racism as they allow a commentator to refer to Marco Rubio as a “coconut” which is a racist term meaning brown on the outside and white on the inside. Classy.

UPDATE: Deutsch apologizes for using the “coconut” slur.

President Obama has invited Republicans to a health care summit but influential conservatives such as Michelle Malkin and Rush Limbaugh are warning the GOP that it could be a trap.

First, Michelle Malkin says:

Please.

The White House spends a full year trashing Republicans for having no ideas on health care reform.

The White House spend a full year promising transparency while subverting it.

And now, after a year’s worth of closed backroom meetings and midnight holiday weekend legislative sessions in which Republicans had severely curtailed ability to offer amendments, President Obama wants to invite them to a televised health care summit to talk about the GOP alternatives he said didn’t exist?

Rush Limbaugh agrees…

And what do you know? The Washington Post is now reporting that the Republican Party might be listening…

Leading House Republicans raised the prospect Monday night that they may decline to participate in President Obama’s proposed health-care summit if the White House chooses not to scrap the existing reform bills and start over.

In a letter to White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel, House Minority Leader John A. Boehner (Ohio) and Minority Whip Eric Cantor (Va.) expressed frustration about reports that Obama intends to put the Democratic bills on the table for discussion at the summit, which would be held Feb. 25.

“If the starting point for this meeting is the job-killing bills the American people have already soundly rejected, Republicans would rightly be reluctant to participate,” Boehner and Cantor wrote.

How does that old saying go? Fool me once…

Last month, Michelle Malkin wrote on her website that when it comes to the Obama Administration, “Everything’s Staged.”

She pointed to faked town halls, fake lab coats and even stand-in produce from the White House garden.

Today, The Hill echoes Malkin’s point while describing Obama’s recent Q & A session with senate Democrats.

Senate Democrats held back from asking President Barack Obama about healthcare reform during a carefully scripted question-and-answer session in front of television cameras.

With the cameras rolling, a group of senators selected in advance by the Democratic leadership asked questions about such topics as partisan gridlock and GOP obstruction.

But once the president left and reporters were escorted out of the room, senators pressed White House officials about healthcare reform, according to those at the meeting.

Carefully scripted, questions selected in advance and reporters conveniently hustled out the door before the real questions came. Sounds pretty transparent to me.

American comedian Joan Rivers was bumped from a Continental flight to New Jersey from Costa Rica because she was singled out as a threat. I feel safer already!

Rivers, 76, was deemed a danger to national security and booted from a Newark-bound flight in Costa Rica on Sunday by a jittery Continental Airlines gate agent who found the two names on her passport fishy.

Her passport reads: Joan Rosenberg AKA Joan Rivers. Rosenberg was her late husband’s last name.

The “nasty and cruel” Continental gate agent bumped Rivers from the last flight out Sunday and the comedian found herself alone (her daughter, Melissa, flew out to Los Angeles earlier in the day) and with no ATM card and just $100 cash, she said.

Rivers’ tale of woe put a famous face on travel’s new reality – one that leaves many feeling like common criminals.

On a more infuriating note, independent war reporter and photographer Michael Yon was handcuffed upon entering a Seattle airport today for refusing to disclose his income. Michelle Malkin has all the details.

I’ve met Michael and have blogged about his enterprising war coverage as an embed in Iraq and Afghanistan for years. The idea of him being treated as a national security threat and handcuffed is as ridiculous as anything we’ve seen from Janet Clown-itano and her cadre.

On Christmas day, a man boarded an international flight in Nigeria. He had no luggage and paid for his ticket in cash. His own father had telephoned government officials to warn them that his son posed a threat, yet he was able to board the plane which he promptly tried to blow up.

Now we have 76 year old comedians and war correspondents being singled out as threats?

Don’t worry though, the government will do a much better job with health care.

Because after all, “they’re a pretty good photo-op.”
