Here are some links that I found to be of interest. I gave you excerpts, but hope that you take the time to read the entire piece.

Religion of Peace Strikes Again in Algeria from Little Green Footballs~ Five dead and five injured today in a series of bombings and shootings by emissaries of the Religion of Peace™ in Algeria.

Would Hillary Choose Obama For Veep? from Captain’s Quarters~Roger Simon at the Politico says no, but goes through a lot of reasons why Hillary Clinton might select Barack Obama as her running mate once she wins the nomination. Simon mentions the need for unity after a fractious primary, Obama’s draw among black voters, and his organizational skills. Simon waits until the concluding paragraphs to give what he sees as the countervailing argument (via Memeorandum):

Mahmoud’s “A” List from Hugh Hewitt~So, which journalists does the fanatic from Iran consider easy marks? From Time:

Did anyone invited think to turn down the hospitality of the leader of a regime actively involved in the killing of our troops?

Would they have attended dinner with Pieter Botha?

If Congressional Approval Falls Below 10%, Do We Get to Have Another Revolution? Via Stop The ACLU~The latest Zogby poll shows that only 11 percent of Americans approve of the job Congress is doing. This is contrasted with Bush’s underwhelming 29% approval rating. These polls show that Americans of all political stripes are losing faith in their government. Congress’ all time low (prior to this poll) is 18% approval. Do we get to disband the government and write a new Constitution if it falls below 10%? For comparison, most foreign governments suffer a coup at these approval ratings……….

Who are the bed-wetters? Via Michelle Malkin~It speaks to the bottomless self-delusion of the thumb-sucking Left that its nutroots bloggers see themselves as the adults and the brave, outspoken opponents of tyranny and evil as the “bed-wetters.” Diana West thoroughly diagnosed “The Death of the Grown-up.” America’s intellectual and moral adolescents are on the side of the jihad apologists, not on the side of the anti-jihad protesters who refused to shut up, make nice, or sip tea with the devil. And from my column today:

Death To Those Who Leave Islam Via Webloggin~There are many people in the United States and throughout the world that would have you believe that “Islamaphobia” is a completely undeserving fear of peace seeking Allah loving Muslims manifested out of the racist tendencies of intolerant non-believers. I, a person who tends to lean toward the side that would grant the right of Isamophobes to be phobic with just cause, personally think that the other crowd can jump off a large bridge preferably overlooking the Grand Canyon. In other words Islamophobia is not a product of racist non-believers but rather a manifestation of Islamlic law itself combined with the actions of radical adherents that are all too common for their existence to be written off as some fringe group. Radical Islam has been mainstreamed and people should rightfully be alarmed…..

Abu Ghraib as Art via JammieWearingFool~
These leftwing bedwetters will just never get over the “horrors” of Abu Ghraib, and now a washed up 60’s relic, Gerald Laing, has resurfaced to glom on and get some attention. Have another hit, dude. ‘Look Mickey, I’ve Hooked a Big One’

Edwards Wants to Limit Lawsuits via Liberty Pundit~Coming from Mr. Lawsuit, that’s pretty funny. In all seriousness, though, Edwards proposal is garbage.

On CNN, O’Reilly is ‘Ahmadinejad,’ Juan Williams is ‘Happy Negro’ via News Busters~After his villain/Ahmadinejad comparison, Watkins blasted NPR host and Fox News contributor Juan Williams for coming to O’Reilly’s defense. O’Reilly’s race comments had come from an hour of his radio program that involved a segment with Williams. “Juan Williams sitting there, is sort of the ‘Happy Negro’ agreeing with Bill O’Reilly, doesn’t impress me at all. A man cannot walk into your home and congratulate your mother for not being a prostitute and not expect you to be offended.”
