Recently, I read an article in our local paper that opined passengers should adapt to the new TSA rules, regarding body scans and pat downs, implying that these measures will save lives. I disagree. Think about it. If you are a terrorist involved in a plot to blow up an airplane or hijack it for use [...]
By Harriet Baskas, msnbc.com A retired special education teacher on his way to a wedding in Orlando, Fla., said he was left humiliated, crying and covered with his own urine after an enhanced pat-down by TSA officers recently at Detroit Metropolitan Airport. “I was absolutely humiliated, I couldn’t even speak,” said Thomas D. “Tom” Sawyer, [...]
He said that once Russia has loaded the fuel into the reactor — slated for Saturday – Israel would no longer be willing to strike for fear of triggering widespread radiation in an attack. “This is a very, very big victory for Iran,” Bolton told The Jerusalem Post. “This is a huge threshold.” Bolton, who [...]
By Robert Barnes Washington Post Staff Writer The Supreme Court ruled for the first time Monday that the Second Amendment provides all Americans a fundamental right to bear arms, a long-sought victory for gun rights advocates who have chafed at federal, state and local efforts to restrict gun ownership.

Credit Michelle Malkin for having the stamina to keep up with the Senate votes last night while I was busy trying to learn how to operate my new iPhone. By the time I tried to catch up, Michelle already had it all laid out, so I will paraphrase much of what she reported, with a [...]
Yes, Obama campaigned on a promise of “Hope and Change”, but did he deliver? According to the 2009 Pulitzer Prize winner Politifact.com, not quite.

PIN Comment: President Obama continues to claim the economy is rebounding. Perhaps that is true for the fat cats, just look at Wall Street. But for Middle-America and the poor, the opposite rings true. People are still losing jobs, and new ones are far and few in between. The last report shows that unemployment insurance [...]
From Sarah Palin President Obama’s meeting with his top national security advisers does nothing to change the fact that his fundamental approach to terrorism is fatally flawed. We are at war with radical Islamic extremists and treating this threat as a law enforcement issue is dangerous for our nation’s security. That’s what happened in [...]
From Rep. John Boehner: Fixed it is not. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid’s (D-NV) latest health care “manager’s amendment” would STILL levy a new “abortion premium” fee on Americans under the Democrats’ health care plan. Just like the original 2,032-page, government-run health care plan from Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-CA) and the last version of Senator [...]
Columnist Stephen H. Dinan from the Huffington Post just shocked the liberal world, from inside the Huffington Post, with a fantastic article on Sarah Palin.
