“If a place was too dangerous, too poor or too small, send the first lady.”

Double talk.

You’ve read the story here before: Innocent black residents of Los Angeles being targeted by violent Latino gangs. The race-hustling reverends have had nothing to say about it. But at least some in the press are paying more attention. The AP takes a look at F13’s racial “cleansing” campaign:
In a murderous quest aimed at “cleansing” […]

Moment of truth.

Update 12/31: Lonewacko has reax.

The Sunday edition of the Dallas Morning News carries a lengthy lead editorial extolling the “illegal immigrant” as the 2007 “Texan of the Year.” The full piece is here. (hat tip - Freedom Folks and MM.com readers). I’ll cut to the chase and give you the paper’s rather underwhelming, “on the […]

Thug love.

Liberal crack-up.

The lefty blogs are buzzing over the latest Lee Enterprises Iowa caucus poll showing a virtual dead heat among the top three Dem candidates:

January:
“Obscene amenities.” - WaPo troop-basher William […]

Promises, promises.

BDS haiku contest!

Eco-poetry contest for kids.

Well, well, well.

Remember Andrew Speaker? He’s the TB-infected American who was able to slip through several airline security layers and fly around the globe despite being on a no-fly list in May. There were several other TB/security incidents this year that have fallen down the memory hole.
Looks like we still haven’t learned anything (via SJMercNews):
A Santa Clara […]

Black like Clinton?

Here’s some straight talk about John McCain from New Hampshire voters, via the Boston Globe. The voters’ main concerns: He’s a Ted Kennedy shamnesty supporter and he’s too old:

The Manchester Union Leader attacks Romney as a Johnny-come-lately on behalf of McCain–himself a Johnny-come-lately (and not a very sincere one) on immigration enforcement.
