Liberal censorship

"I am incredulous that PBS would invest so much of our tax money into contracting professionals for a documentary on a subject -- the struggle for the soul of Islam -- which is one of the most vital debates of the 21st century and then censor its release," said Dr. M. Zuhdi Jasser, chairman of the Arizona-based American Islamic Forum for Democracy who is featured in the documentary.

You can be outraged by this, but you cannot be surprised.

Liberals routinely use censorship to advance the cause of liberalism.

Former Tennessee Republican Sen. Fred Thompson told FOX News on Wednesday that he’s in remission from cancer.

“I wouldn’t be doing this if I wasn’t satisfied in my own mind as to the nature of it and the fact that not only will I have an average life span, but in the meantime, I will not be affected in any way by it,” Thompson said.

Thompson, who is considering a run for the White House in 2008, said he hasn’t had any symptoms or sickness from indolent lymphoma, a form of cancer.

Rhetorical question

Is the Sharpton & Jackson Circus truly committed to cleaning up cultural pollution that demeans women and perpetuates racial epithets?

- Michelle Malkin

Obviously not. Sharpton & Jackson are looking to use the Imus issue to advance the cause of liberalism. Period.

Other people can demean women and perpetuate racial epithets with complete immunity.

Business as usual in the liberal world.

Arab News

Prince Turki said that before Sept. 11, 2001, public surveys showed that 45 percent of Americans believed that the Kingdom was a friendly nation. “After it was announced that 15 of the 19 hijackers who took part in the attacks were Saudi, public surveys showed that 60 percent believed that Saudi Arabia was a hostile country,” he said.

Why was the change so small?

Pelosi

Should Pelosi spend three years in jail? I'd say it's a start. Then we can work on the treason part...

Negativism

It’s unfortunate that the MSM has decided to dwell on the bad news — and the words of an angry cleric because the surge has shown real signs of progress. Perhaps Americans might have a more favorable opinion of the war in Iraq if the MSM presented a more accurate picture of the situation on the ground.

Negativism by liberals is just one of those unfortunate facts of life.

Edwards

Our old buddy Jim Geraghty (and his readers) provide the real scoop on John Edwards' plan to "simplify" taxes with something called a "Form One". The verdict - the plan is a joke (kind of like John Edwards), and creates all kinds of problems.
