Battling 'The Narrative'

60 Minutes had a fascinating report last week on what it calls "The Narrative," which "says that the United States is out to destroy Islam," and a man who devotes his life to combating this absurd meme. The man is Maajid Nawaz, who himself was once a radical fundamentalist. Read more...

On 'View,' Obama Says Michelle Not Interested In News Shows

Barack might have some 'splaining to do . . . Appearing on The View, the president explained to Barbara Walters that he chose to come on the program because it's a show Michelle actually watches. According to PBO, the First Lady is "like eh" about news shows, grabbing the clicker [see screencap after jump] and turning away from them. Read more...

Obama: "Many Are to Blame" for Sherrod Firing

Taxpayers Spend $73,000 on Alan Grayson DVDs

From the Orlando Sentinel: If U.S. Rep. Alan Grayson were a rock star, his latest PR blitz — a DVD sent to tens of thousands of Central Florida residents — would be called Grayson’s Greatest Hits. The 90-minute disc features video highlights from his first term in office, including one of him grilling Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke and another in which the Orlando Democrat preaches on the need to teach schoolchildren about the U.S. Constitution.

The Boy Scouts at 100

Boy Scouts celebrated their 100-year anniversary at their National Jamboree in Fort A.P. Hill, Virginia this week. President Obama decided not to attend, so he could instead tape his appearance on The View. That's too bad. For a century, Boy Scouts of America has been a top organization that cultivates young leaders by teaching them patriotism, morals, and responsibility. It’s a group the president should want to promote. Eligible scouts range from fifth graders to young men headed off to college. Read more...

Liberty or Tyranny in 2010: Support the Rightward, Most Viable Candidate

Between February 27, 2009, and today we learned something. We learned that this administration is bent on subverting republican government. Article IV of the Constitution — and its guarantee of a republican form of government — means nothing to Obama, the Congressional majority, and Obama’s Supreme Court appointees. Obama rules by decree. Elena Kagan’s okay with banning books. November 2 is our last chance to stop the free fall into tyranny. Read more...

IMMIGRATION: “Helplessness and anarchy.” “States have been left helpless to deal with the anarchy created by the failure of the federal government to enforce border security. Whereas yesterday it was unclear how far states (such as Rhode Island) could go, today states are powerless. The inability of a state to implement a policy of checking the immigration status even of people already under arrest for some other crime is remarkable. Read more...

Taliban Brutality

Time's managing editor Richard Stengel explains the cover of his magazine this week: Our cover image this week is powerful, shocking and disturbing. It is a portrait of Aisha, a shy 18-year-old Afghan woman who was sentenced by a Taliban commander to have her nose and ears cut off for fleeing her abusive in-laws. Aisha posed for the picture and says she wants the world to see the effect a Taliban resurgence would have on the women of Afghanistan, many of whom have flourished in the past few years.
