• RED STATE, BLUE STATE: California vs. Texas: The Verdict Is In
  Ronald Reagan was right: people do vote with their feet. They’re fleeing high tax states like California, New York and Michigan. They’re moving into low tax states like Texas where they’re getting their money’s worth out of state-provided services.

• BECAUSE THEY CAIR: CAIR files suit against ‘Muslim Mafia’ author
  Art Moore, WND: “The Council on American-Islamic Relations has filed a federal lawsuit against a co-author of the newly released book “Muslim Mafia” and his son, charging they conspired to carry out a six-month uncover operation in which they secretly recorded meetings and stole thousands of pages of sensitive documents from the Washington, D.C.-based Muslim group.

  In the book, “Muslim Mafia: Inside the Secret Underworld That’s Conspiring to Islamize America,” published by WND Books, P. David Gaubatz and “Infiltration” author Paul Sperry present first-hand evidence CAIR is acting as a front for a well-funded conspiracy of the Muslim Brotherhood – the parent of al-Qaida and Hamas – to infiltrate the American system and help pave the way for Saudi-style Islamic law to rule the U.S.

  Trademark CAIR antics: sue those who publish unflattering information about the front group–which pretends to be a voice for anyone other than the radical Islamists who foot the bills.

  What does a Senate Banking Committee Chairman do when he’s not tamping down charges of favoritism and corruption? Complain about the boobs in WWE YouTube videos–and we’re not talking about the wrestlers. If Chris Dodd kept as careful a watch over the banking industry as he does over YouTube, the U.S. would likely not be trillions in debt, stretching into the horizon as far as the eye can see…

• Quotes of the day
  Liberal media organizations and commentators give conservatives advice on how to fix the Republican Party. Every time the Republicans take their advice, they lose. Then the Libs give more advice–and worse, there are those in the Republican Party that listen. Liberals hope this process repeats itself until the Repubs have “fixed” themselves out of existance.
  Most of the quote-spouters get it wrong. But don’t anyone tell them: you can’t fix the problem if you don’t know what the problem is.
