OPPOSE ELENA KAGAN'S
CONFIRMATION TO SCOTUS
More than 30,000 have now signed the petition to "Reject Elena
Kagan's Nomination to the Supreme Court." We're now working
hard to shoot past 50,000 signatures - and if you'll forward this
link
http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/rejectelenakagan/ to some
of your friends, and ask them to sign, we can make it there in no
time flat!
, the senior Republican on
the Senate's Judiciary Committee, exposing yet another example of
the truly radical nature of Elena Kagan's political views.
As Dean of the Harvard
Law School, Kagan made
no protest concerning
very large donations to
Harvard from Islamic
sources interested in
promoting Shariah
Law - while at the same
time denying the
U.S. military access to the
campus!
Elena Kagan could
potentially serve on the
Court for 30 to 40
years. And her "blank slate"
of judicial qualifications
and "stealth"
record compel us
to resist her confirmation
to avoid dangerous
surprises after she is seated.
++Kagan's opinions
are outside those of mainstream America.
The United States
Supreme Court overturned Ms. Kagan's
misguided resistance
of military recruitment by a 9-0 vote,
clearly demonstrating
that her views are well outside
the mainstream of
American legal thinking.

...President Obama divided the world into those who join me,
and those who support the battalions of financial industry
lobbyists descending on Capitol Hill. For the president, the
only middle ground is where hes standing. Reasonable alternatives
to his policies simply do not exist. It is Obama alone who determines
which arguments are legitimate and which are misleading.
Its rhetorical blackmail: Agree with me, the president is

Protecting Our American Identity
by Diana West
Excellent news: Most Americans approve of Arizona's new immigration
law. And by wide margins. According to Pew, the overall number is
59 percent. The New York Times poll came in at 60 percent. According
to the NBC/Wall Street Journal poll, that overall number is higher
still: 64 percent. These solid majorities show stirrings of a surprisingly
resilient national survival instinct. ...

Our Founders' Solutions for Illegal Immigration
by Chuck Norris
It seems that the whole country is taking sides in the battle over

laws. ...

Our Founders' Illegal Immigration Solutions, Part 2
by Chuck Norris
Watching U.S. members of the House and Senate, and the president's
Cabinet in a joint session of Congress stand and applaud Mexican
President Felipe Calderon's slam of Arizona's new immigration enforcement
law, I thought, "What a despicable act of disloyalty to one
of their own states and a ludicrous leadership move to boot, especially
when 71 percent of Arizonians agree with its new immigration law."

Immigration and Liberty
by Walter E. Williams
My sentiments on immigration are expressed by the welcoming words
of poet Emma Lazarus' that grace the base of our Statue of Liberty:
"Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning
to breathe free." Those sentiments are probably shared by most
Americans and for sure by my libertarian fellow travelers, but their
vision of immigration has some blind spots ...

Sign Our Petition Opposing a Mosque at Ground Zero
Less than nine years after the worst terrorist attack on American
soil in our history, an imam who blames America for the 9/11 attack
wants to construct a 13 story mosque and Islamic center 600 feet
from Ground Zero.
Whats more, he wants to unveil it to the world on September
11, 2011the ten year anniversary of that horrific jihadist
attack.
Surely you agree that this is an outrage! This is why we must ACT!
We need a tidal wave of public opinion to flood New York officials
telling them that allowing a mosque to be built at ground zero is
a slap in the face of the thousands of families who lost loved ones
in that jihadist attack.
This is why ACT! for America launched a nationwide petition yesterday
that we will deliver to New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, urging
him and other New York officials to oppose the building of this
mosque in this location.
Net neutrality = Net brutality
On April 6th 2010, the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled against
the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and decided that the
internet does not fall under its watchful eye. At issue was net
neutrality, the veiled push by the FCC and left-wing organizations
to dramatically expand the powers of government. Net neutrality
proponents aim to set prices and restrict internet access provided
by internet companies.
Having failed in their litigation to control internet access, the
FCC is now using its powerful influence to sway law makers in Congress.
Specifically, the FCC and its big government supporters want
the internet to be re-classified as a traditional utility company
under the 80 year-old legislation. This would give the FCC the
power it craves to control the internet, just like it controlled
the telephone and television for the last century

How Republicans Can Blow the Coming Election
by Phyllis Schlafly
Pundits are predicting that Republicans could pick up 40 to 100
seats in the U.S. House this November. But Democrats are about
to unveil their secret weapon to keep Nancy Pelosi in her catbird
seat.
What could be the magic bullet with the potential to discredit the
Republican Party as a vehicle for Americans opposed to Barack Obama's
radical changes? The answer is Mexican trucks, a foolish idea left
over from the George W. Bush era, and some Republicans are on the
verge of drinking the Kool-Aid.
This month, Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood, the former Republican
congressman from Peoria, Ill., told a Senate subcommittee that he
would soon announce a plan to allow Mexican trucks to drive their
loads on U.S. roads. He said the timing of this decision is
"closer than soon." ...

Obama's War Against America
"The next move of the Alinsky left" by Andrew Thomas
uncovers how the deadly serious war of words between the left and
right has been ratcheted up by Obama and his Democratic Party supporters.
"Obama's Deceptive Budget Will Lead to Disaster"

"Embracing Liberty, Not Big Government" by Michael
Barone shows how since Obama became president, our political debate
has been transformed into an argument between the heirs of two fundamental
schools of political thought, the Founders and the Progressives.
The Founders stood for the expansion of liberty and the Progressives
for the expansion of government.

Hypocrisy in the Liberal Establishment

American History, Not Ethnic Studies

Most ethnic studies programs in public schools are at best a waste

attempts to do, but ensuring that public schools give all students

A Crack in the School-Choice Dike?

Senate Storm Warning
by Tony Blankley
In life, generally, honorable people play by the rules. This is particularly
true in the United States Senate, which has historically defined itself
by its adherence to its unique rules -- rather than, say, by its representational
or proportional nature. And so, as we enter the confirmation process
for Elena Kagan as Supreme Court associate justice, most Republican
senators have sincerely expressed their intent to apply the traditional
rules of confirmation. ...

Kagan's Nomination Really More About Obama
by Armstrong Williams
Im loving the drama that is unfolding around President Obamas
nomination of Solicitor General Elena Kagan to the Supreme Court.
Conservatives are, true to form, bungling the narrative they should
be rightfully pushing an unqualified liberal just chomping
at the bit to legislate from the bench. Meanwhile, Miss Kagans
record on anything that might reveal her jurisprudence is so sparse
that liberals are beginning to get a little skittish on just how
she may rule on various issues. ...

The Shady ShoreBank Bailout

"No more bailouts, no more greed, how many profits do you need?"
That's been a signature chant of community organizers and Big Labor

now that the federal government and a coalition of big banking interests
