The World Has A Muslim Problem - Big Journalism
"Jihadist thugs are now attacking us in the name of Islam.
No doubt there are a lot of Islamic believers who don’t support this.
But like the Germans in World War II, they are not speaking up… for good reason of course, as there was a good reason back in the days of the Third Reich.
But because they aren’t speaking up to oppose what is being done in their name, the world has a Muslim problem.
Everybody knows this.
Not many public figures dare to say it out loud. Some public figures don’t want to know it, much less say it out loud."

Instapundit » Blog Archive » EMBARRASSING WIDENER
A word needs to be said about the mocking laughter that instantly erupted from the law students in the audience.
Presumably, that sound meant we are smart and you are dumb.
Where did they learn to treat a guest at their law school — Widener Law School — with such disrespect?
They hooted O’Donnell down, and she never got a chance to explain her point.
What does that say about the climate for debate in law schools?
Not only did they feel energized to squelch the guest they politically opposed, but they felt sure of their own understanding of the law.
I’ve been studying law myself since 1978, and I still puzzle over things and try to work my way through problems.
If a speaker at my school makes a statement that sounds outlandish to me — me with 32 years of studying law — I may display a puzzled expression or a smile, but I hear the person out and entertain the possibility that he has a point and that even if the point is wrong, I will have learned some new perspective on the ways of being wrong or how another human being’s mind works. I try to create that atmosphere in the classroom.
What is the atmosphere at Widener?
Is there no intellectual curiosity?
No love of debate?
No grasp of how complex constitutional law problems can be?
Well, we can only judge by what we’ve seen.
Meanwhile, Cornell lawprof William Jacobson comments: “A literal reading of O’Donnell’s comments reflects that she was correct, but of course, the press and the blogosphere don’t want a literal reading, they want a living, breathing reading which comports with their preconceived notions.”"

This may have been the very first time in my hunting life that my predator attention was focused completely on something other than grocery shopping for a whitetail deer."

Over the last decade in California, spending on state employees' compensation rose nearly three times faster than state revenues.

This year, for the first time ever, our state was forced to spend more on retirement costs ($6.5 billion) than on higher education.'"

Dear MoveOn member,
This is an urgent request.
This week, news broke that the U.S. Chamber of Commerce—one of the biggest sources of corporate cash backing Republicans this year—has been using money from foreign corporations in India, Bahrain, and elsewhere to fund its attack ads, in apparent violation of the law.1
This explosive news could shift the course of the election if the Chamber is forced to scale back and all the right-wing candidates they're helping have to answer for this.
The Chamber knows that. Their strategy is to give no quarter and hope this blows over. In the last 48 hours they've actually spent millions more on ads targeted against progressive heroes including Russ Feingold.2
The liars on the left are expecting their collaborators in the MSM to "report" these fabrications as directed by MoveOn.org and their ilk.
Be ever vigilant and contact the liberal media when they show their true colors!
