‘Historian’ Douglas Brinkley: Obama ‘Like’ Martin Luther King
Progressivism
Warner Todd Huston
Radio talker Rush Limbaugh got in dutch with Fox News commentator Charles Krauthammer for saying that Obama supporters were “slobbering” over his address at the pep rally/memorial sponsored by the University of Arizona for those fallen in the Arizona shooting. But “slobbering” is nothing compared to historian Douglas Brinkley’s hyperbolic praise. Brinkley absurdly said that Obama was “Martin Luther King-like” in his efforts.

Petty RI Gov. Bans Talk Radio Appearances for State Workers
Progressivism
Warner Todd Huston
Lincoln Chafee was the bane of conservative talk radio when he was the RINO Senator from Rhode Island. Now that he is a newly minted “independent” and has become the Governor of the Ocean State, Chafee is in a position to take his revenge on the medium. And boy has this petty man used his power to do just that by banning his state employees from talking to talk radio.

Tweets Regarding The Arizona Shooting Tragedy
Progressivism
Frederick Meekins
An assassination attempt was made against an Arizona Congresswoman. What freedoms will Americans be coerced into surrendering as a result? In a press conference, the sheriff there has already blamed talk radio for the tragedy.

Wa Post Editorialist Admires Members of Taliban’s Armies, Are Just as Good as U.S. Soldiers
Progressivism
Warner Todd Huston
Does anyone on the left understand right and wrong? Do any of them understand that some things humans do are morally reprehensible or is everything relative? If we could find one that understands it, it certainly won’t be Colman McCarthy. We can say this because this week the former Washington Post columnist and current director for the farcical Washington-based “Center for Teaching Peace” said that he “admires” people who “join armies” and, revealing his moral ignorance, he said he even admires those that join the Taliban’s “army.”

What Communism Feels Like
Progressivism
Alan Caruba
Recently I received an email and requested permission to share it. It says a great deal about the danger of a government inclined to ignore the Constitution. December 15th is Bill of Rights Day(1); time to read them if you have not done so already.

‘Whither Goes The Southern Poverty Law Center?’
Progressivism
Wayne Lela
You probably consider yourself a reasonably compassionate person, though one who understandably is concerned about right and wrong and knows lines have to be drawn somewhere. Moreover, you probably make conscientious efforts to draw those lines in logically defensible places.

Harry Reid’s amnesty bill must be crushed, says philanthropist
Progressivism
Jim Kouri
When Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid faced low poll numbers and the threat of being replaced by a Republican on November 2, he quickly promised Latinos in Nevada that he would push for the DREAM Act, which would be a surreptitious amnesty program for illegal aliens.

Lefty Rally in D.C. Gets Glad Handed By Old Media, But Event is a Bust
Progressivism
Warner Todd Huston
Naturally the Old Media is doing its level best to pump up the “One Nation” rally. The lefty protest is gathering in front of the Lincoln Memorial on the National Mall in Washington D.C. today, Oct. 2. But despite the glowing reports by the media there is no denying the fact that few people have turned out for the anti-Tea Party event sponsored by some 400 of America’s most extreme left-wing organizations and their associates in uniondom.

State Initiatives, Propositions And Referendums Are A Progressive Trick
Progressivism
Malcolm T. Hedges
"The Oregon System of “Initiative, Referendum, and Recall” was exported to many states, including Idaho, Washington, and Wisconsin. Many progressives, such as George M. Forbes - president of Rochester’s Board of Education - hoped to make government in the U.S. more responsive to the direct voice of the American people..."(1)

Obama: Spending so he can get the VAT
Progressivism
Offsite
The Obama Administration is creating a crisis so that they can solve it with a mechanism that will serve as the catalyst for future spending on their massive government programs. And even though our president said he wouldn’t raise taxes on 95% of Americans while he was on the campaign trail, get ready for the “VAT”—a move that would raise taxes on everyone.
