MICHELLE MALKIN — It is now all the
fashionable rage in Washington, D.C., to proclaim solidarity with
America's working poor in front of the cameras -- while
stabbing them in the back behind closed doors. Privileged Illinois
Democratic Congresswoman Jan Schakowsky and others have taken to

Ramen noodles to show how much they empathize with minimum-wage
workers... (more)

CHARLES KRAUTHAMMER — John Kerry is upset by heavy criticism from Israelis -- left, right and center --
of his recent ceasefire diplomacy. But that's only half the story. More
significant is the consternation of America's Arab partners, starting

stunned that Kerry would fly off to Paris to negotiate with Hamas allies
Qatar and Turkey in talks that excluded the PA and Egypt... (more)

WASHINGTON TIMES — An independent panel appointed by the Pentagon said Thursday
that President Obama's military strategy for sizing the force is too
weak to meet growing national security threats. It also said the

States."... (more)

look at how it treats its most vulnerable civilians. Hospitals are a
good place to start. Al-Shifa, the largest hospital in Gaza, is housed
in a converted British army barracks. Some 126 miles north is Israel's
Ziv Medical Center in Zefat... (more)

conference on our comprehensive immigration reform," said Senate
Majority Leader Harry Reid... (more)

JOSEPH FARAH — America is in crisis. Even
worse, the world is on fire. Meanwhile, Barack Obama is pouring gasoline
on the flames. And what are Republicans in Congress doing about it? Not
much. Do they realize there is a midterm election coming up in just
over three months? Do they think they are seizing on the opportunity to
increase their control of the House and seize the Senate through a
business-as-usual stance?... (more)

ANDREW C. MCCARTHY — It has been nearly two
months since the publication of my book, Faithless Execution: Building
the Political Case for Obama's Impeachment, helped intensify the
national focus on presidential lawlessness -- or, if you

breathless diagnosis offered by Media Matters in what otherwise is a
surprisingly accurate description of what I've written... (more)

ALAN KEYES — "The President shall be
commander in chief of the Army and Navy of the United States, and of the
militia of the several states, when called into the actual service of
the United States." (U.S. Constitution, Article II.2) They say a little
knowledge is a dangerous thing. It can, however, also be an antidote to
foolish enthusiasm, especially when it comes to actions that emanate
from a less than trustworthy source... (more)
