| After violent Muslim reactions to the amateurish "Innocence of Muslims" video, which simply depicted a few of the less salutary aspects of Muhammad's biography, international and domestic Islamic agendas have openly converged with vehement calls for universal application of Islamic blasphemy law. This demand to abrogate Western freedom of expression was reiterated in a parade of speeches by Muslim leaders at the UN General Assembly. The US Muslim community echoed such admonitions, for example during a large demonstration in Dearborn, Michigan, and in a press release by the Islamic Circle of North America.

Just wondering. If ALL the muslims throughout the world were rioting over that idiotic video, what were our domestic muslims doing? Heard any reports? Sort of odd that our "press" didn't even interview any of our domestic muslims.

Thanks # 1, a clear thinker.
Exactly, no riots here.
On the other hand, I wonder if the Muzzies had a chance of enacting Sharia law if they would do it?
Our next war may be here at home.

The push for Sharia Law in America is not new, and I am not above believing that a continuation of the Obama regime might allow the push to become a reality.
There is no MiddleEastern country where Americans can demand that laws be changed to accommodate the American way of life. .... Why, then, do our lawmakers consider it acceptable to BOW down to Islamics and their demands?
It is NOT acceptable!

No, 100% of muslims reject freedom of expression.
The 40% who said otherwise are either not practicing muslims or they are using their principle of taqiyya to lie to the unbelievers and merely say what is expedient.
Islam is a death cult that seeks to dominate all aspects of life -- and impose itself upon the whole planet by force.

The Muslims have a good excuse: they are Muslims. Of course they do not believe in freedom of speech, liberty of conscience, separation of church and state, or any of our other cherished modern Western values. How could they? They are Muslims. Islam is against all that. Muslims trying to silence critics of Islam and the Prophet are just Muslims being Muslims. What else should we expect from them? I say good luck to them. Their mission is to Islamize the whole world. Our mission, those of us who would rather not be Islamized, is to prevent this. It is an old old story. Nothing new there.
If there is anything new and sinister it is the hostility of many on the Left to clear and distinct, unambiguous freedom of speech. I am more concerned about the threat to freedom from Leftists than from Muslims. And I am worried because Leftists -some of them- seem not even to comprehend the idea of free speech any more. They seem to have no category for political disagreement, no room for the possibility that there could be valid, though irritating, disagreements with their beliefs. And they seem instinctively to want to silence critics rather than engage with them in rational argument.

for as long as they live here, they will be unhappy, and if they dare try to force their intolerance on our culture, they will end up much less happy. either that, or the spirit of this nation ceases to exist.

We really need to see what has happened with the Muslims in Europe. Because of colonialism, the European countries considered colonies as a part of their own country. The peoples inhabiting those areas were citizens of that country and could travel freely to any part of that country in the world!! Many chose to emigrate to the home land. Many were Muslims without any utile skillsets to get jobs. The Muslims decided to create their own enclaves within the mother country. Now Europe has ghettos filled with disaffected Muslims who fall back on the Koran. Hence, England, France, Netherlands, Germany have major problems with Muslim citizens within their borders, who have their OWN culture, laws and ideas hateful to the West.
....and they breed like rabbits.
The US needs to take heed of Europe's problems.

Yesterday we watched Senator Claire McCaskill’s fantastical view of the world. Today, I offer you the perpetually unhinged Alan Grayson, who gives us his take on Paul Ryan’s budget: “In one case after another, you look at his principles, you look at his vision, and they’re a nightmare for America. He wants Americans to work until they die, he wants poor people who get sick not be able to see a doctor, not to get the care they need, not to get better, he wants them to die,

Like the proverbial monkey typing for infinity and getting Shakespeare, Mayor Bloomberg’s obsession with reforming New Yorkers’ health has finally produced a brilliant ad campaign. Posters are popping up in subway stations and bus stops giving statistics about teen pregnancy that show cute little kids saying things like, “Honestly, Mom … chances are he won’t stay with you. What happens to me?” and “I’m twice as likely not to graduate high school because you had me as a teen.”

A meticulous new analysis examines the benefits of government-administered socialism among a representative cross section of individuals. It is an insightful departure from the usual studies of socialism that analyze only collective benefits to society using statistics about such things as income quartiles and poverty levels. The new study is 27 pages and can be accessed as a PDF file via this link. As its author, I´ll summarize the results here. Julia, the president´s comic book heroine, is used as the baseline.

Pravda, Guns & America (AT, Jan. 11) quoted a Russian who advises: Americans: Never Give Up Your Guns, citing the bloody and tragic result of the Communists´ confiscation of arms after they came to power in 1917. The quotation has been echoing around the Internet, so here are more ringing defenses of the importance of the right to bear arms to the cause of liberty. Another Russian, the great writer Alexander Solzhenitsyn, wrote about the Soviet Union in The Gulag Archipelago (p.13, note 5): And how we burned in the camps later,

We are being played; it´s time we learned the game. Conservatives have their Constitution. Progressives have their Narrative. The current battle for America is between these two concepts, and each side uses different rules to fight it. One set of rules is consistent with an unchanging objective: limited government and individual freedoms. The other side´s rules are as fickle as their goals, which are never fully disclosed beyond the equivocal references to fairness and hyphenated forms of justice.

The International Telecommunications Union (ITU), an imprint of the UN, is holding its World Conference on International Telecommunications (WCIT) from December 3-14, 2012. The stated purpose of the WCIT is to update the UN´s "global treaty" on telecommunications to deal more directly and comprehensively with the internet. Knowing who controls the UN, it is not hard to see that a primary aim of the updated "treaty" will be to give credence to the regulation and monitoring of online activity in ways that are desirable to the (authoritarian) majority of member states.

The United States will not reverse its descent into the abyss of financial and societal bankruptcy until the current political and governing establishment is replaced. That will not happen until the American people, who have been deliberately ill-educated and deceived, experience first-hand the early stages of the turmoil and suffering extant in Europe and elsewhere. While professing to care for the interests of the average person, the underlying motivation for the vast majority of the governing class or Establishment is first and foremost self-aggrandizement and the acquisition of wealth.

I’m running for mayor because I’ve been fighting for the middle class and those struggling to make it for my entire life.

The dam protecting the IRS scandal began to crack today when Lois Lerner, the IRS official who announced, and apologized for, the improper singling out of conservative-leaning organizations by IRS employees under her command, announced through her criminal defense lawyer that she will not testify as scheduled tomorrow before the House Oversight Committee. Rather, she will assert her Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination. This marks an enormous milestone in the IRS investigation. It can now be taken as more or less established that crimes were committed by Obama administration employees. Lerner’s lawyer tried to minimize the significance

WASHINGTON – A top IRS official in the division that reviews nonprofit groups will invoke the Fifth Amendment and refuse to answer questions before a House committee investigating the agency’s improper screening of conservative nonprofit groups. Lois Lerner, the head of the exempt organizations division of the IRS, won’t answer questions about what she knew about the improper screening – or why she didn’t reveal it to Congress, according to a letter from her defense lawyer, William W. Taylor 3rd. Lerner was scheduled to appear before the House Oversight committee Wednesday.

When you get right down to it, the political targeting and stalling of tax-exempt applications by the IRS was an effort to defund the Tea Party. Rick Santelli, one of the Tea Party founders and my CNBC colleague, was the first to make this point. I’ve taken it a step further: The IRS was taking the Tea Party out of play for the 2012 election, as it looked to avoid a repeat of 2010 and another Tea Party landslide.There are a lot of numbers out there.

House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Darrell Issa said embattled IRS official Lois Lerner waived her Fifth Amendment rights and will be hauled back to appear before his panel again. The California Republican said Lerner’s Fifth Amendment right to avoid self-incrimination was voided when she gave an opening statement this morning denying any wrongdoing and professing pride in her government service. “When I asked her her questions from the very beginning, I did so so she could assert her rights prior to any statement,” Issa told POLITICO. “She chose not to do so — so she waived.”

The public got its first look Thursday at Lois Lerner, who has gone from faceless IRS bureaucrat to the face that launched what feels like 1,000 congressional hearings and conspiracy theories. But it was only a brief sighting since she didn´t stay long at a House hearing to further probe her role in how some IRS workers came to target conservative groups seeking tax-exempt status. (Snip)She did make a short statement to declare her innocence, however. Lerner´s motivation was more transparent than much of what the IRS has done in connection with this controversy. She was determined to
