 HE WAS JUST A POOR REFUGEE
 More information is coming out about this mall shooter in Salt Lake City.
Now that it has been revealed that this psycho killer is a Muslim, the media is doing its level best to rehabilitate his image. Turns out he was a poor refugee in war-torn Yugoslavia that survived a Serb massacre. Too bad not everyone survived his massacre. Oh, and his family wants you to know they're not terrorists. So what's behind all this?
The mainstream media simply cannot accept the fact that a Muslim walked into a shopping mall in Utah and started gunning down people. His actions must be explained away. Obviously he was confused...he didn't know what he was doing. So now come these stories about how this poor guy fled the Serbian massacre in the war in the Balkans. To hear the media tell it, he's the real victim here...not the people he killed at the mall in Utah. And so the media apologists continue.
Imagine if he had not been Muslim, but rather a Mormon...or a Christian protesting abortion ...or Amish. Would his religion be downplayed like it is now? Of course not. That would be the front and center headline. But per the pro-terrorist Islamic appeasement template, the media must never criticize or present Muslims in a bad light. So he's just called a "gunman."
His family wants everyone to know they're not terrorists. Well, perhaps they're right...the family aren't terrorists. But this animal sure was.
MORE FROM SOMEBODY'S GOTTA SAY IT! A short excerpt from the introduction: I am, it is said, an equal opportunity offender. If I come to the end of my four daily hours on the air and I'm not sure I have gravely offended at least one group—social, racial, socio-economic, ethnic, political, generational, regional—then I consider my work that day an abject failure. I begin each show with a simple basic truth running through my mind. "These people out there doing these dangerous, stupid, sometimes hilarious, and often strange things have no right not to be offended, and I'm here to see that these non-rights are recognized and respected." There are no taboos on my show. Race, gender, religion, national origin, political persuasion . . . it's all fair game. No political correctness here. People may be able to hide their illogical, sometimes downright moronic, behavior behind the shield of a convenient group identity in their everyday lives. But not from me. There's only one real requirement for someone to land in my crosshairs: that you do something, either intentionally or through
ignorance that will contribute to the destruction of the greatest experiment in self-government this world has ever known—our country, the United States of America.

BORDER CROSSINGS DOWN 62%
 Remember when President Bush sent the National Guard down to the Mexican border? Well guess what...it's having quite an effect. In fact, in one section...illegal border crossings are down 62%. Imagine how much they'd be down if we actually built a wall and enforced the law. After 8 months being down at the border, the troops are having a serious deterrent effect.
And since the main function of the federal government is to defend and protect our borders, why not send more troops? How about a troop surge to stop the Mexican invasion? The solution to illegal immigration is so easy...and so simple...it's right there on the table, ready to be solved. This is not a complicated issue. All you do is build a wall along the border, staff it with armed troops and then take the steps necessary to make it all but impossible for the 12 to 20 million criminal aliens we already have in this country to earn a living. The problem, of course, is that there is no will to do anything about the invasion.
And this success is all happening even though the National Guard troops aren't allowed to apprehend illegals. Imagine if they could do that. Surely we could stop illegal immigration in its tracks. Of course, given their success...the Bush Administration will probably redeploy them.
THE NORTH KOREAN CAVE-IN
This deal we've made with North Korea...turns out to be quite the cave-in. Former UN Ambassador John Bolton calls it a bad deal and says the Bush Administration is violating its principles. Evidently we're going to give The Gargoyle and the Norks some fuel oil and take them off the terrorism list. All in exchange for what? Let's take a look at the deal.
As John Bolton points out, the whole thing sends a bad message, and he's right. It makes us look weak. If you're a terrorist state, like say...oh, I don't know...Iran, all you have to do is wait us out. Refuse to give up your nukes long enough and we'll cave in. You might even get something out of it, like the Norks are getting here with the fuel oil. Under this deal, North Korea will get a million tons of fuel oil just for shutting down a nuclear reactor.
Oh, and you know how North Korea counterfeits U.S. currency? No problem! We're going to lift the restrictions on their banking...so The Gargoyle can fire his money-laundering schemes right back up. As Bolton points out, we're paying The Gargoyle blackmail. Of course, as always...the problem with paying blackmail is the price goes up.
And once again, we'll be played for suckers. Just like Jimmy Carter was in 1994 and Madeleine Albright was in 2000. FEELING LAZY TODAY Well I think that instead of concentrating on notes today ... I'm going to go heavy on the reading assignments. After all, these people put in all this research and time writing these articles ... so I might as well go search them out and pass them on to you. So look for an expanded reading assignments below! One more thought .. a hideously insensitive, politically incorrect thought. I'm just waiting for the day when some home alarm company ... ADT, for instance ... actually has the nads to put an ad on television that shows a family being threatened by a black intruder. Have you noticed that the intruders -- the people trying to break into those homes --- are always white? 'Sup wid dat? "Although she is formidably intelligent, there is something scarily inauthentic about her...she seemed cold and artificial to me, her face a mask, her eyes unlit by her smile." -- Mary Ann Sieghart,

REDNECK SCRAP BOOK I think that with the addition of redneck wedding rings, we pretty much have you covered if you're planning a redneck wedding: engagement ring, theme, limo, arch, cake, reception, engagement photo, another reception, another limo, and another cake. More in the Redneck Scrap Book. READING ASSIGNMENTS I read this every week ... and don't quite know why I don't include it in the reading assignments more often. The Evans-Novak Political Report. They have that part about GOP futility right. Another daily must for me. James Taranto's Best of the Web Today! I'm the one who ought to have "rant" in the middle of my name. Passengers stuck for up to 11 hours sitting on 10 planes at JFK International Airport. Me? I'm popping a slide! Al Franken wants to be a U.S. Senator. Minnesota is the place to run, I guess. Thou shalt not criticize Barack Obama, nor shall thee say that Barack is articulate, for verily I say unto you that the wrath of the left shall descend upon you. But dayammmm! That is one articulate brother! Know what I'm sayin'? Here's someone else who somehow has come to the conclusion that it is the role of the government to address income inequality! My take? Only to the extent that the government is preventing someone from reaching their income potential. This website is called "Stop Her Now!" Now just who in the world do you think they might be referring to? Probably not Britney Spears. Now ... once you've looked at the site ... make sure you come right back here and click on this link. You don't want to miss this part. John Fund writes about the role that Libertarians have shaped the culture and economy of the United States. Why don't they get more attention? So .. Barack Obama is oh-so articulate! Michelle Malkin thinks that he's not quite so articulate when he sets out to slam our troops in Iraq. I love the word she uses in her title. Do we really want an "Obamanation?" Now here's a good question: What is so "conservative" about Social Security reform? It's good to see more people are fighting back over the global warming mania being promoted by the United Nations. Thomas Sowell writes about global hot air from the media. Why, for instance, hasn't the media played up the fact that not one single hurricane hit the United States last year? You're probably not spending much time wondering what Vladimir Putin is up to. Perhaps you should be. Max Boot calls Putin "The louse that roared." Cleopatra was ugly? The Council on Foreign Relations says that Iraq is a lost cause. That ought to bring a smile to the faces of Islamic fascists around the world! Al Gore. Concert promoter. Can't wait. Red light cameras? They work! Bring 'em on! The town of Pahrump, Nevada has repealed its English-only law. The ACLU claimed the ordinance was designed to "spread fear." Since when is it spreading fear to require people to speak the language that is spoken in this country? At any rate, Pahrumpians are back to being multicultural.
An official in Iraq now says Islamic terrorist Muqtada Al-Sadr is just visiting in Iran. I'm sure he'll be back soon. Perhaps he went to Tehran to have his glass eyeball polished or something. He'll be back in town running the insurgency real soon.
Former North Carolina Senator and Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards is finally being honest about what he stands for. He's calling for the cutting off of funds for the troops in Iraq. Will other Democrats follow suit? Probably not.
Barack Obama is a smoker...and that's been making quite a bit of news lately. Turns out he's not the only one in Washington that smokes, so the Washington Times decided to do a story on it. Oh, and the first Muslim elected to Congress called the cops on the congressman next door for smoking.
The media seems obsessed with making sure we don't do anything to punish Iran. Yet as Victor Davis Hanson points out, Iran's growing list of offenses cannot be ignored. They're manufacturing bombs that blow up our troops...why shouldn't we do something?
Columnist Debra Saunders takes a look at the presidential candidacy of Rudy Giuliani and whether or not he has what it takes to occupy the Oval Office. She concludes he does, says he would make the tough decisions at the White House.
Speaking of presidential candidates, there are some people running that don't seem to have a very good chance of winning. George F. Will profiles one such long-shot bid, that of Congressman Duncan Hunter. He says Hunter is an interesting candidate.
And now here's part three of Thomas Sowell's series of columns on Global Warming. Today he looks at the myth that all scientists agree on global warming...when they don't. By the way, here's a good question posed by Sowell. If global warming caused all the hurricanes in 2005, what about the lack of hurricanes in 2006?
Here we go again with North Korea. Cal Thomas reports on the latest agreement with the Norks...and wonders why we've made another deal with them. Didn't we do the same thing in 1994...then again in 2000? Why should we believe them this time?
Does a pro-choice candidate like Rudy Giuliani stand any chance of winning the Republican presidential nomination? What about Mitt Romney, who for a long time was very much pro-choice? Jonah Goldberg looks at the politics of abortion in 2008. Video of the day: the original dumb blonde. |
