Everything I Now Need to Know About Sarah Palin, I Learned From Aristotle
In spite of all I admired and wrote in support of Governor Sarah Palin, I cannot claim intellectual honesty if I try to justify her profoundly disturbing endorsement of Dr. Rand Paul.

Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, once asked a Holocaust Survivor if he had any words of wisdom the Minister should remember. Looking gravely at the Statesman, the old man warned:
“When someone tells you they are going to exterminate you, believe them.”
If Elissa could change anything, she wouldn’t have made that special meal for her ten brothers and sisters, and her three mothers. Trying to brighten the Polygamous house with flowers on the table had the catastrophic effect of drawing her step-father’s notice. Such domesticity told him the girl was ready to wed, ready to birth the babies that would populate her husband’s future planet. At fourteen, Elissa, threatened with damnation, had to submit to the Prophet’s command and marry her repulsive 19 year-old first cousin. read more…

Hitler could never have become the ruler of Germany or have murdered six million European Jews without help. He needed like-minded supporters, he needed money, and he needed willing accomplices to obey orders. But far more than these, Hitler needed that without which no genocide can ever succeed, he needed by-standers, people of conscience whose moral outrage at the destruction of their neighbors was rivaled only by their reluctance to jeopardize self-interest in order to oppose the evil about them. read more…
Thanks to that impartial pillar of journalistic objectivity, Al Jazeera, America was treated to a new video message from the poster boy of the Religion of Peace. Taking credit for the attempted Christmas massacre of the three hundred passengers of Flight 253 and praising the “heroic warrior Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab,” Osama promised he will continue to order terror strikes on our country until we abandon our support for Israel and allow peace in Palestine.
The Jerusalem Post reported: “ Israel’s Foreign Ministry spokesman, Andy David, dismissed the latest al-Qaida message and its attempt to link Israel with attacks on the US. ‘This is nothing new, he has said this before. Terrorists always look for absurd excuses for their despicable deeds,’ David said.”
Glenn Beck Reminds America: The Revolution That Devours Its Children – Starves Its Enemies
“La Revolution mange ses enfants.” The Revolution devours her children. This is true not only of those who willingly nourish her with their own lives, but also those offspring who choose to renounce her and face a life of gnawing loneliness and consuming remorse. read more…

Now, Avner is confused, conflicted. For every Terrorist secretly killed, Islamic retaliation eliminated an embassy, a team, a close friend. He lives in fear of being hunted, realizing that this fear, as a new shadow, will cleave to him until death. read more…
Wearing the Uniform, Despising America: When the Military Protects Its (Radical) Own
On September 11, 2001 David Horowitz dismissed the myth of American culpability for the Terror Attacks and discerned the essence of the actual motive:
“This country is at war… America is in denial that much of the world hates us, and will continue to hate us because we are prosperous, and democratic and free.”
The next morning a United States Naval officer sat at his computer and wrote a very different message: read more…
Lemony Snicket penned thirteen fictional tomes chronicling the “Series of Unfortunate Events” involving the Baudelaire Orphans. Central to his saga is the relentless villain Count Olaf, determined to appropriate the fortune of three children whose parents he first murdered. Foiled in his initial attempt to seize their inheritance, Olaf repeatedly disguises himself hoping that, transformed, he will eventually circumvent the Orphan’s defenses.
Count Olaf’s dubious talent for hiding his true identity by superficial disguise is shared by intellectual villains lurking on the fringe of public discourse, Holocaust Deniers. read more…
