Mapping the “climate of hate”
My column today contrasts the White House and media responses to the Tiller murder with their silence on the deadly military recruiter attack. In the latest developments on the recruiter case, more targets were reportedly found on Abdulhakim Mujahid Muhammad’s computer. Yesterday, investigators said he told them “he would have killed more soldiers had they [...]
Notes on the murder of George Tiller
*Late-term abortion doctor George Tiller was gunned down at his church in Kansas Sunday morning in a thoroughly evil, cold-blooded act of domestic terrorism. Yes, terrorism. Not “extremism.” Interesting how the t-word has been rediscovered.
*Every mainstream pro-life organization has unequivocally condemned the killing.
I repeat: Every mainstream pro-life organization has unequivocally condemned the killing. [...]
Pithiest summation of Obama’s abortion remarks at Notre Dame
“He might have called for toning down the rhetoric but his abortion policies are tuned up on steroids.”
– Greg Mueller.
Showdown at Notre Dame
An estimated 20,000 protesters are expected this weekend to oppose Catholic Notre Dame’s embrace of abortion militant Barack Obama.
Eighteen were arrested today at the gates of the university.
More than 360,000 have signed a protest petition.
The White House is pooh-poohing the controversy:
The White House has responded to opposition to President Obama’s appearance at the University [...]
Senate confirms low-balling HHS Secretary
She was yet another in a long line of tax-troubled Obama nominees. Worse, she lowballed the amount of campaign cash she received from infamous abortion doctor George Tiller. And yet, the two, pro-life GOP Senators from Kansas both voted for her confirmation. Kathleen Sebelius is your new HHS Secretary by a vote of 65-31:
GOP Sen. [...]

The bigger tax problems of Kathleen Sebelius
A group of conservative leaders including reps from the Family Research Council, Concerned Women for America, the American Conservative Union, and others released the following statement this morning regarding the HHS nomination of Gov. Kathleen Sebelius. Yes, the back taxes issue is aggravating. But this is worse:
Gov. Sebelius May Not Pay Her Own Taxes, but [...]
“We prayerfully implore you to halt this travesty immediately.”
More than 80,000 have signed the petition protesting President Barack Obama’s invitation to speak at Notre Dame.

Heckuva job, Kathy!
The Vatican’s smackdown of Pelosi
The Pope’s rebuke of pro-abortion Catholic Nancy Pelosi was diplomatically worded, of course.
But as transparent as Scotch tape.
Wham.
Pelosi’s response?
Blink, blink. Blink.

More from Ed Morrissey:
Message from Benedict: Study more. And he sent another message as well — that those with higher positions have higher responsibilities not to formally cooperate with the sin of abortion. That [...]
Senate roll call vote: Taxpayer funding of overseas abortions reinstated
Yes, we can…subsidize foreign abortions.
Obama nominee: Taxpayer-funded abortion is a free speech right
GOP Sen. Jim DeMint flags the testimony of deputy Secretary of State nominee James Steinberg, who believes that abortion subsidies are constitutionally protected.
From Sen. DeMint’s blog:
James B. Steinberg, President Obama’s nominee to be the next Deputy Secretary of State, claimed in written testimony to the Foreign Relations Committee that Congress cannot constitutionally restrict taxpayer funding [...]
Contraceptive funding thrown under Obama’s bus
Thump, thump, thump.
“It seems the era of Hope is to be inaugurated with a slaughter of the innocents.”
There’s a very powerful read from Gerald Warner in the London Telegraph today. A snippet:
This will end in tears. The Obama hysteria is not merely embarrassing to witness, it is itself contributory to the scale of the disaster that is coming. What we are experiencing, in the deepening days of a global depression, is the [...]

Silver lining: Planned Parenthood lays off 20 percent of staff

Hit with declines in funding from the economic crisis and the Madoff scandal, the Planned Parenthood Federation of America is laying off around 20% of its staff.
Roughly 30 people were let go earlier this week, according to a source who works for the nonprofit. [...]
First Things: Fr. Richard Neuhaus, R.I.P
A devastating loss for conservatism.
Peter Wehner’s tribute at NRO says it all:
The death of Father Neuhaus is a terrible blow. Not for him, who is now united with his Savior and his Redeemer, in whom Father Neuhaus placed all of his trust and all of his hope; but for us, who have lost one of [...]
