Thomas Sowell : Obama and the Law - Townhall.com - Mozilla Firefox: "One of the biggest and most long-lasting 'change' to expect if Barack Obama becomes President of the United States is in the kinds of federal judges he appoints.

Burt Prelutsky : A Legal System Only a Mother Could Love - Townhall.com: "I think I understand the reason why so many politicians are reluctant to take a tough stand against the illegal aliens pouring in from Mexico. It's partly pandering for votes, partly providing corporate America with cheap labor, and partly a natural reluctance to be branded as racists by the liberal media, Latino leaders on the make, and the moral cretins in the ACLU."

Family Security Matters � Publications � Exclusive: The Death of Litvinenko � Two Years Later and What Have We Learned?

Family Security Matters � Publications � Exclusive: The Death of Litvinenko � Two Years Later and What Have We Learned?: "In virtually all things Russian, nothing is ever exactly as it appears and yet everything is exactly as it appears. For example, Vladimir Putin supplies Iran with nuclear energy capability, yet warns them about developing nuclear weapons. If this sounds a lot like the Mad Hatter giving philosophy lessons to Alice in Wonderland, you are absolutely correct! To grasp the extent of Russia's (Putin's) tentacles and the implication to our national, economic and global security, consider the cautionary tale of the Alexander Litvinenko saga and the theories that have emerged since his assassination."

Family Security Matters � Publications � Ruling by a Radical: "the American Constitution was flawed because it only provided for 'negative liberty' � which I suggest is what genuine freedom consists of � as opposed to what the state should do for individuals, or 'positive rights' as this is known, which I suggest amounts to state control of individual behaviour. He regretted the fact that the civil rights movement had a tendency to lose track of the political and community organizing and activities on the ground that are able to put together the actual coalition of powers through which you bring about redistributive change."

The American Civil Rights Union, Protecting the civil rights of all Americans: "Much the same people and organizations who insisted on the issuance of subprime mortgages to 'people of color' have now made a claim that former home owners are entitled to damages because they did not / could not pay for the mortgages they insisted on. Much the same lawyers who insisted on these mortgages are now seeking these damages, unless the defendants settle out of court."

Family Security Matters � Publications � Ready for the Great Negotiation? You�d Better Be!: "Another important negotiation is the proposed Civilian National Security Force. In an analysis, 'What Obama will do' by Olavo de Carvalho, he said that 'The goal is, plainly, to arm the radical militancy and transform it, according to the words of the new president himself, into such a powerful and well subsidized force as the Army, the Navy, and the Air Force.'

To the Shores of Tripoli . . .

To the Shores of Tripoli . . .: "A U.N. report released in the third week of November estimates at $25 million to $30 million the amount of ransom that has been paid this year alone to Somali pirates. Kenya's foreign minister places this figure at over $150 million. The pirates are emboldened not only by cash, but by the vanishingly small chance that they will be apprehended or imprisoned, either by a dysfunctional Somali government or by the states that contribute naval combatants to antipiracy operations in the area."

The NY Times Op Ed author Collins should be thankful that her paper, like much of society seems to have dummied down and has lowered the bar on standards to accommodate some of its writers. Her inane suggestion in the NY Times November 22nd edition that President Bush and Vice President Cheney step aside now so that Speaker of the House Pelosi can become the first woman President, well it is scary, loony and laughable."
