Victoria Toensing has a piece in today’s Wall Street Journal taking the Obama Justice Department to task over the handling of 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed. Unfortunately, I can’t read the entire piece because the Journal recently reverted to making most of its Opinion Page subscriber-only after about two years of it being free of […]
We heard that refrain a lot during the eight years George W. Bush was president. Leftists marching in parades were patriotic when they carried banners stating: “We support the troops when they shoot their officers.” Code Pink and their cohorts were patriots when they blocked the entrance of the Marine Corps recruiting office in Berkeley, […]
On Fox News Sunday this morning, just as occurred last week, Democrats attempted to defend the Obama administration’s decision to read the Christmas Day bomber his Miranda rights after only 50 minutes of interrogation. This week it was Rep. Chris Van Hollen and NPR commentator Juan Williams who attempted to peddle the theory that U.S. […]
Department of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano would be advised to never speak in public again. Where has this woman been since 9/11/2001? She really thinks that it’s a new tactic of using a single suicide bomber? Maybe she’s never had to take off her shoes at the airport. There’s been some criticism in the […]
President Barack Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder have decided that the man who attempted to blow up a plane in midair and kill nearly 300 people is a common criminal who deserves all the rights granted citizens of the United States. In an interview yesterday on “Fox News Sunday,” assistant to the president for […]
Or maybe we do. From Bill Roggio: The British are all smiles over the release of Peter Moore, a British citizen who was held hostage by an Iranian-backed Shia terror group in Iraq. But there is little talk about the price paid to secure Moore's release. The US military has freed Qais Qazali, the leader […]
Allahpundit over at HotAir characterizes Rep. Ron Paul as a “useful idiot” because Paul said on CNN: “They’re terrorists because we’re occupiers!” regarding the attempted Christmas Day jihadi airline bombing. Useful? Nope. I don't think he's useful to anyone. Idiot? Check. For the record, Allahpundit notes that Paul also has his facts wrong. According to […]
On Christmas day, an al Qaeda-linked terrorist attempted to blow-up a passenger plane destined for Detroit. The “suspect,” Abdul Farouk Abdulmutallab, apparently had explosives sewn into his underwear which he tried, but failed, to detonate. Let’s debunk one bit of leftist dogma right off. Abudulmutallab was not poor and uneducated. Like the vast majority of […]
Following up on Attorney General Eric Holder’s appearance before the Senate Judiciary Committee yesterday comes this bit of stupid from chairman Sen. Patrick Leahy: If the U.S. captures Osama bin Laden, there's no need to interrogate him, the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee said Thursday. Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.), the chairman of that committee, […]
Attorney General Eric Holder appeared before the Senate Judiciary Committee yesterday to defend his decision to try Khalid Sheik Mohammed and four other 9/11 plotters in federal civilian court. He didn’t do a good job. Two bits of the transcript: SENATOR LINDSEY GRAHAM, (R-S.C): Can you give me a case in United States history […]
