President Incompetent
By
Ron Ross

Whether or not you support President Obama’s policies, one thing is becoming increasingly obvious: He simply lacks competence. The best indicator of this is his ineffectiveness in accomplishing any of his own objectives. His first year in office resembles the career of a quarterback who never completes a pass. His list of failures is all too familiar — health care reform, closing Guantánamo, cap-and-trade, and so on. He has failed to accomplish any of his self-identified top priorities. Other than getting himself elected, he appears to have a very limited range of abilities.

King Had a Dream, but Blacks Now Face a Nightmare

When was the last time you heard anyone express outrage over the fact that up to half of the black kids in major cities are high school dropouts?

How the Left Reveals Itself
By
Robert Huff

I have recently come to the conclusion that leftists reveal their innermost thoughts when attacking those with whom they disagree. For example, in President Obama’s recently televised meeting with Republicans, he chastised critics who believe his policies are part of some “Bolshevik plot.”

Another gun control failure…

Gun control, the failed experiment
By Howard Nemerov

Perhaps it is symbolic that Amy Bishop, an associate Biology professor at the University of Alabama in Huntsville, is the latest data point in a long history showing that most multiple murders occur in “gun-free zones.”

Bishop was in a department meeting discussing her proposed tenure–a lifetime job guarantee–when apparently she sensed that things weren’t going her way. She drew a gun and began shooting, killing the Biology Department chair and two other faculty members.

At least AZ is heading in the right direction. Problem is, the illegal aliens will just migrate west to Kalifornia. This lousy state is rife with sanctuary cities and they should all have their federal funding revoked for doing so.

Ariz. Sen. Passes Bill Outlawing Sanctuary Cities

Fed up lawmakers in a Mexican border state plagued with huge numbers of illegal immigrants are increasingly taking matters into their own hands by passing laws to control the crisis long neglected by the federal government.

Weeks after an Arizona State House panel approved a pair of measures intended to curb illegal immigration, the Senate has passed a law prohibiting sanctuary cities in the state. The measure allows illegal aliens to be charged with trespassing, makes it unlawful for anyone—documented or undocumented—seeking work to enter a vehicle stopped on the street and penalizes drivers who impede traffic in an attempt to hire a day laborer.

The bill, which moves to the House for the crucial approval that could make it law, will also prohibit all state and local governments from adopting policies that restrict the enforcement of federal immigration measures. In fact, it requires state and local governments to comply with and assist in the enforcement of U.S. immigration laws.

This has got to be the quote of the week. If not, it’s in the top three.

One day this week, there was measurable snow on the ground in 50 states. (No report yet from the other seven of the “57 states” President Obama once said he was campaigning to be the president of.) Even Hawaii reported snow on some of its mountain peaks, and several towns in northwestern Florida were lightly dusted, like the powdered sugar on a cop’s doughnut.

PRUDEN: The red-hot scam unravels
By Wesley Pruden

You can fool some of the people some of the time, as Abraham Lincoln observed, and you even can fool all the people some of the time. But you can’t fool all the people all the time. Al Gore and his friends got so excited about points one and especially point two that they forgot point three.

Not everybody is on to the global-warming scam, not yet, but all the people — or enough of them — are getting there. “Global warming,” or even “climate change” as Al’s marketing men now insist that it be called, is becoming the stuff of jests and jokes. Sen. James M. Inhofe of Oklahoma, a Republican, built an igloo of that hot stuff that buried Washington last week on the Capitol lawn and dubbed it “Al Gore’s new home.”

I know some of these are old news, but, I still have to make my comments…

Another failure of the “gun free” zone. This time in Huntsville, Alabama. A university professor that was denied tenure opened fire in a faculty staff meeting killing three and wounding three. If one of those faculty members was allowed to carry a weapon, then maybe, just maybe, a life, or two could have been saved.
David Codrea has more on this.

Huntsville shooting another ‘gun free zone’ failure
By David Codrea

By now, most of us are aware of the shooting at the University of Alabama in Huntsville. According to reports, a female biology professor denied tenure allegedly opened fire during a faculty meeting, killing three and wounding three others.

So are New Yorkers who reelected this idiot. I guess New York likes the idea of government telling them what to do, how to live, and what they can and can’t eat. Pathetic.

On a lighter note, the moron was told to take a flying leap be the W. Va. political machine…

Bloomberg told no gun show stings in W.Va.

A West Virginia politician has a warning for anti-gun New York City Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg. Per NYDailyNews.com:

[State Senator Jeffrey Kessler] wants to ban the type of undercover stings that Bloomberg has used to showcase illegal gun sales in other states – and throw the mayor’s investigators in jail if necessary…

…Kessler’s bill would ban those stings, making a felon out of anyone who “persuades, encourages or entices” a gun dealer to make an illegal sale.

It’s about time—or is it? Per Bloomberg press flack Jason Post:

“The city has never broken the law, but we have caught unscrupulous gun dealers selling in violation of federal law,” Post said.

Now hold the phone, Mr. Post—either illegal sales were conducted, in which case your guys participated, or they weren’t.

Which is it?
