In This Dimension

If this is True…

We have a fully-DISengaged president…

If it is NOT true, The One needs to tell us so. And if Hilary and Panetta and Gates don’t tell us this is FALSE, then my view is that it is true. It fits EXACTLY within The One’s character - or lack thereof - and fully-comports with his voting record:

“….present…..”

– at least now we have a closer glimpse into who runs Obama : Jarrett…

ANY GOP candidate needs to start using the absolute disengagement of the President in the highest realm of his duties, National Security, on the campaign trail - now and constantly.

How we know HRH Obama is not serious about regime change in Libya

Obama has told the world (and the US Congress via the newspapers), that “regime change” in Libya is the policy of the US, that Qaddafi “must go,” etc., etc., blah blah blah.

Really?

Nahh… He’s just kidding. Really.

Here’s what we are doing in Libya: Creating and enforcing a no-fly zone by launching 110 (to-date), $569,000 cruise missiles at sand dunes, AA radar sites and various Command and Control sites.  So that’s about $62.5M in cruise missiles so far…. (This is actually a deal; the FY11 price for the next block is $1.066M per copy. Maybe using these up lets the Navy increase its[…]

Does even Obama know what he’s doing in Libya?

If you find yourself wondering what Obama is doing in Libya… join the club.

He has joined - but not as the leader (and let our new Foreign Policy President Hilary announce it) - a coalition of forces to enforce a no-fly zone and begun sending missiles targeting Libyan forces - without even bothering to check with or get a vote from Congress. Evidently only Republicans need to get Congressional approval before sending forces out to engage in foreign civil wars.

He has destroyed Libyan AA capability with Tomahawks (something the Brits could have done) as protection of the no-fly pilots. But he also[…]

Written by a housewife, to her daily newspaper, a national UK paper. This is one ticked off lady.

‘Are we fighting a war on terror or aren’t we? Was it or was it not started by Islamic people who brought it to our shores in July, 2002, and in  New York Sept 11, 2001 and have continually threatened to do so since?

Were people from all over the world, not brutally murdered that day in London , and in downtown Manhattan ,  and in a field in Pennsylvania ?

Did nearly three thousand men, women and children die a horrible, burning or crushing death that day, or didn’t they?

And I’m supposed to care that a few Taliban were claiming to[…]

Diplomacy 101(A)

In order to understand many of the problems in the world today one must come to grips with the fact that “Liberal” “Diplomacy” is a contradiction in terms.

(I use quotes around “liberals” of today because they are actually the opposite of classical liberalism, which championed the individual against the State. “Liberals” today are exactly the opposite of that, championing the State at the expense of the individual. But they are too badly-educated to understand this.)

Look at the post-1968 world of “Liberals.” “Liberals” don’t believe in consequences. Really. How many gun control laws have they passed? Do they ever, you know,[…]

A Great Alternative to A Body Scan at Airports

The Israelis are developing an airport security device that eliminates the privacy concerns that come with full-body scanners at the airports. They have a booth that you can step into that will not X-ray you, but will detonate any explosive device you may have on you.

No more waiting in long lines; no more removing your shoes, belt, jacket, hat, watch, cell phone, coins, laptop….

No false positives - if you don’t have any explosives on you, you walk on out. If you do, you get blown-up by YOUR OWN explosives.

No evidentiary issues. No slick lawyer getting you off. No racial profiling.

This[…]

Tolerance? The post-Enlightenment West vs Islam

Here’s a question for you:

Why, in this nation of tolerant people, is THIS acceptable, but THIS is not?

Hmmm?

I ask the tolerant multiculturalists among us.

The Size of Government and the Choice This Fall

Congressman Ryan and Arthur Brooks write in the Wall Street Journal today that the choice this November isn’t between parties or candidates - it’s between two stark choices of the future: Will America remain the wealthy free-market country and international beacon of freedom and liberty it has  for over 200 years, or will we devolve into the failed European social welfare model?

Unfortunately Ryan and Brooks understate the issues involved.

The choice is not between two models, each of which delivers some definition of “success” to varying sub-groups of society at varying costs to society at-large, costs particularly borne by those sub-groups not[…]

9-11…. Remembrance

In case you have forgotten.. or in the event that, like me, you want to be able occasionally to review what happened on 9-11.

In memory of those who died in NY, DC, PA and IN far-off places fighting for our freedoms and liberties against a brutal totalitarian ideology that some still believe is a “religion,” and which MUST BE STOPPED.

Geert Wilders 9/11 Ground Zero Speech

This is a must-read for all Americans and all peoples of the West or those who aspire to be free.

Geert Wilders 9/11 Ground Zero Speech

–Andrew G. Bostom

Geert Wilders, the Dutch politician under threat of death from radical Islamists, gave a speech yesterday at Ground Zero that all Americans should pay attention to.

Dear friends,

May I ask you to be silent for ten seconds? Just be silent and listen. Ten seconds. And listen… What we hear are the sounds of life in the greatest city on earth. No place in the world, no place in human history, is as richly varied and vibrant[…]
