CAIR (Council on American-Islamic Relations) wound up with a photo on their front page the other day featuring a couple of women without the hijab. Was this a problem? Heck, no; they just Photoshopped each of the women to get...

From Star Parker:The charges of racism-inspired foot-dragging isn't just nonsense. It's pernicious nonsense. This is how the New York Daily News called it regarding charges, from the usual circle of black leaders, that the rescue efforts in New Orleans were...

The question whether or in what form New Orleans will reemerge from the deluge probably depends mostly on which and how many of its former residents decide to return. The Big Easy was easily one of the most dysfunctional cities...

I wish to add to the discussion of the umpire/judge analogy. Of course the analogy is imperfect, but it is effective as far as it goes. I would simply add this. If there was an umpire who said, Some are...

Methinks that Instapundit is right on the money: THE PRESS WANTS TO SHOW BODIES from Katrina. It didn't want to show bodies, or jumpers, on 9/11, for fear that doing so would inflame the public. I can only conclude that...

One simple thing, really: Joe-Joe Biden loves him some TV camera time. And that's understated, perhaps. Biden, Leahy, and Chuck Schumer. Does it get any better than that? I caught some of the hearing off and on yesterday, and have...

Fighting Terrorism in the U.S.

Gov. Mit Romney (R-MA) has deGov. finitely poked the hornets' nest of political correctness with a big stick in a speech before the Heritage Foundation. He reiterated in an interview with Gibson on Fox News:

And, in some cases, I'm sure the FBI infiltrates organizations they're concerned about. If they have probable cause, they're able to do wiretapping. And those are the tools that, of course, we use in protecting the homeland. What we need to do is more of that and have more resources devoted to the FBI in their effort to do intelligence work and counterintelligence work.

We don't need different tools. We need to use the tools we have got under the Patriot Act (search) and under our current laws to assure that we really are following groups that are preaching terror, that we really are following people who come here from terror-sponsored states, where that's appropriate, where we have concerns, that we have the resources necessary to prevent the bombs from going off, rather than just the resources to clean up afterwards.

In a later apppearance on O'Reilly Factor this evening, when asked what he thought of the ACLY complaining that his remarks and the policy advocated in them would have a "chilling effect" on foriegn students coming to the US. Romney's reply? Words to the effect that he would hope that students from terrorist-supporting countries like Saudi Arabia and others WOULD stay away - that it would make our security problem that much better if they were not here!

HEAR, HEAR! Right on, Gov'nor!

From Rush Limbaugh: All right, people say, Rush, what do you mean media scandal? Let me put scandal in quotes. The simplest way, I think, to clue you in as to my thinking is to give you the -- well,...
