'If Hizbullah strikes, we hit Lebanon'
"He told the newspaper that since the Lebanese goverment is allowing Hizbullah to rearm, 'we will not run after each Hizbullah terrorist or launcher. . . . We will see it as legitimate to hit any target that belongs to the Lebanese state, not just to Hizbullah.'"

National Data: If Obama Has Stepped Up Enforcement, Why Suppress The Numbers?
VDARE.com: 07/21/10 - National Data: If Obama Has Stepped Up Enforcement, Why Suppress The Numbers?
"No photo ops. No press coverage.
But more illegals displaced from jobs Americans need?
That is the implication.
Evidence?
Well, there really isn’t any.
We don’t know how many illegals were arrested in the workplace last year or how many were fired by employers seeking to avoid criminal prosecutions.
For some strange reason, Immigration And Customs Enforcement’s latest “Workplace Enforcement Overview” does not present enforcement activity for FY2009, the first year President Obama could sway the agency’s agenda.
So the NYT’s Preston merely recycles ICE boilerplate:
'Over the past year, Immigration and Customs Enforcement has conducted audits of employee files at more than 2,900 companies.
The agency has levied a record $3 million in civil fines so far this year on businesses that hired unauthorized immigrants, according to official figures.'
Let’s see.
About 7 million illegal aliens are estimated to be working in the United States—so the Administration is fining employers an average 43 cents per illegal alien worker.
Not exactly a fearsome prospect."

"Don’t be fooled by Obama’s plan for America’s Great Outdoors Initiative.
The claims are more land is in need of protection and more American’s should have the benefit of seeing the great outdoors in their natural state, but the government already owns 1 out of every 3 acres in the U.S. — 1 out of every 2 acres in the West"

"Unfortunately, the public’s elected representatives may not have the final say where labor policy is concerned.
Craig Becker, a recess appointee to the NLRB with strong ties to organized labor, has made it clear that he favors taking administrative action without congressional approval."
This is electronic "CARD CHECK"!

HMM: Sherrod: “We Must Stop The White Man And His Uncle Toms …”
Instapundit » Blog Archive » HMM: Sherrod: “We Must Stop The White Man And His Uncle Toms …”
“First, a note of heartfelt appreciation for Joan Walsh of Salon.
Her moving post on Charles Sherrod – in defense of his wife, Shirley – provided the inspiration required to dust off my Google skills.
I simply had to fulfill her stated desire to share the actual words of Civil Rights icon Charles Sherrod with her readers, so touched was I by her profound tribute.
And she’s been swamped on TV, justifying Shirley Sherrod calling Fox and Andrew Breitbart racist.
I can only hope she will be kind enough to direct her readers here, so we can all share his unique wisdom on race relations together, as one.
That is, after all, the way it should be, is it not, Joan?”"
I'm thinking the MSM prefers to examine Breitbart rather than ...say....their new heroine Shirley.

Socialist "JournoListas"
New Zeal: Socialist "JournoListas"
"The now closed down JournoList, has caused considerable controversy in recent weeks.
According to its opponents, JournoList, teamed up some 400 prominent "progressive" journalists in an effort to smooth Barack Obama's path to the White House.
There have been accusations that 'Journolitstas', deliberately sought to downplay Obama's association with the marxist Rev. Jeremiah Wright and tried to smear conservatives, or opposing journalists as 'racists'.
This post looks at 106 reported 'Journolistas' to look for connections or common threads."
Excellent analysis of the "vast left wing conspiracy" the leftist MSM continues to bury.

"Marlow makes a valid point too, and that it may well be the MSM, and not Obama, that is keeping Sherrod off the air:
Considering the Shirley Sherrod interview barrage that took place last Thursday, to not see Sherrod on television Sunday morning sends a clear signal the mainstream media no longer feels allowing the public to get to know the real Shirley Sherrod advances their agenda.
Hmmm.
So is it the White House or the MSM?
Or both?"
