How a call to jihad shows the duplicity of American “moderate” Muslim groups
The first American to be charged with treason since World War II was back in the news Sunday, both for a new videotape he released and for reports of his capture that turned out to be false.

The reports that Gadahn had been captured caused... http://frontpagemag.com/2010/03/08/the-lessons-of-adam-gadahn/ |

 Arnold Schwarzenegger California State Governor Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger today announced President Barack Obama has declared a major disaster declaration for Calaveras, Imperial, Los Angeles, Riverside, San Bernardino and Siskiyou counties after winter storms pounded the state beginning in January. This declaration will release federal funds to help communities recover from the effects of these storms. "This action by President Obama will get assistance where it's needed most. It will also help reduce a significant portion of the financial burden the storms have placed on communities throughout California," said Governor Schwarzenegger. "It's important that we're doing all we can to help these communities recover from the damaging effects of those powerful storms." The Governor requested the major disaster declaration on February 11 after a series of preliminary damage assessments conducted by representatives of the California Emergency Management Agency, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the affected counties identified more than $59.1 million in estimated costs eligible for reimbursement by FEMA and more than $33.3 million in estimated costs eligible for reimbursement by the Federal Highway Administration.

Despite as many as 100 explosions which killed at least 38 people in Baghdad, Iraqis defied a desperate insurgency yesterday and turned out in strong numbers to choose a new Parliament. According to The New York Times, “turnout was higher than expected, and certainly higher than in the last parliamentary election in 2005. … Sunnis who largely boycotted previous elections voted in force, and an intense competition for Shiite votes drove up participation in Baghdad and the south.” The NYT went on to describe the election as “arguably the most open, most competitive election in the nation’s long history of colonial rule, dictatorship and war.” The United States still has much work to do in Iraq, but... http://blog.heritage.org/2010/03/08/morning-bell-a-first-step-toward-fre... |

Parental Rights Advocate Jim Holman Backs Poizner For Governor Republican candidate for governor Steve Poizner today announced his support for the California Parental Notification Initiative. If passed, the initiative would change the California Constitution to prohibit a minor from having an abortion until the physician notifies the minor’s parent or legal guardian. The initiative provides exceptions for a medical emergency, parental waiver, or parental abuse. “As a leader in the parental notification movement, I strongly believe that Steve Poizner is the only candidate in the race for governor who will stand up for the goals of the parental notification movement and work to protect the safety of minors,” said Jim Holman, Newspaper Publisher and Parental Rights Advocate. “Steve Poizner’s endorsement of the parental notification initiative further reinforces my strong support for Steve’s candidacy and proves that, unlike other candidates, Steve Poizner is willing to take a clear stand on issues that matter to social conservatives.” Holman joins Don Sebastiani, former member of the California State Assembly and another leader in the parental notification movement, in endorsing Steve Poizner for governor because of his principled stand on the California Parental Notification Initiative and other issues of importance to values voters. “I believe that we should work to drive the number of abortions in California down to zero,” said Commissioner Poizner. “As a father, I fully support parental notification and I strongly urge voters on all sides of this issue to come together to back this important initiative.” |

President Obama's budget has added more than $100 billion in federal taxpayers' money to what is called "education," so that means it will be spent by alumni of the Saul Alinsky school of radical community organizing and/or the Chicago Democratic machine. We're indebted to Pamela Geller of AtlasShrugs.com for exposing the shocking use of some of these funds. Obama is using the public schools to recruit a private army... http://www.investors.com/NewsAndAnalysis/Article.aspx?id=522422 |
