Planned Parenthood Shooting -- Gun Violence & Rhetoric | National Review Online

Planned Parenthood Shooting -- Gun Violence & Rhetoric | National Review Online: "Isn’t “don’t say what you think, because it might set off a crazy person” the most insidious form of censorship, because none of us can really know what prompts a crazy person to go on a violent rampage?"

More Hillary Than Hitler - WSJ

More Hillary Than Hitler - WSJ: "Mrs. Clinton is not exactly a conviction politician; one suspects that she doesn’t really believe what she’s saying. Indeed, she contradicted herself in the very next paragraph of the speech, acknowledging that there is a “dangerous stream of extremism within the Muslim world that continues to spread.”

But she wouldn’t have made the absurdly counterfactual statement that Muslims “have nothing whatsoever to do with terrorism” if she didn’t think it politically necessary to do so. Aggressive complacency in the face of terror has been the watchword of this administration, and of the base of the Democratic Party."

Ted Cruz to Obama on refugees: Come home and say it to my face, sucka « Hot Air

Ted Cruz to Obama on refugees: Come home and say it to my face, sucka « Hot Air: "If Democrats are so sure that Cruz is a Goldwater in the making, they should be doing everything they can right now to promote him. An hourlong debate with Obama where he gets to attack The One directly would all but seal the nomination. O’s not going to debate anyone on his refugee policy, though, let alone Cruz, because there are too many obvious points for which he has no rejoinder. For instance, how is it that there are so many valuable targets still left for the French to hit in Raqqa when we’ve supposedly been “weakening” ISIS from the air for a year? It takes some balls for Obama to feign worry that Republicans are doing propaganda for ISIS by opposing refugees when there was, is, and will be no better propaganda for jihadis than weathering a weak, ineffective yearlong attack by the United States with its caliphate still intact. If you’re a 20-year-old Muslim watching from afar as Obama takes potshots at ISIS from the air and achieves nothing more than “containment” — which is itself probably a lie created to disguise the lack of progress — you’d be fully convinced by now that the mujahedeen are 10 feet tall and invincible. Thanks, Obama!"

Who’s up for a bunch of terrible new polls for Jeb Bush? « Hot Air

Who’s up for a bunch of terrible new polls for Jeb Bush? « Hot Air: "A pre-debate hors d’oeuvre for you in recognition of the fact that Bush schadenfreude is really the only common ground left to us in the 2016 race anymore. You’ve got the Cruz fans here, the Trump fans there, some Carson fans milling about, a smattering of Rubio fans mixed in, all convinced of two things. One: Their guy is the guy. Two: Jeb Bush is not the guy. Bush fatigue is the tie that binds, my friends."

This Isn't A Culture War. It's A War On Culture

This Isn't A Culture War. It's A War On Culture: "All of this is predicated on the idea that every person the Left approves of, no matter what kind of lifestyle they engage in, should feel entirely comfortable, loved, and accepted by everyone; everywhere they go, no matter what they do, never to hear an unflattering word from anyone. You can only try to achieve this utopia is by attacking, cajoling, and subduing other cultures to create philosophical uniformity."
