From Contentions in Commentary magazine:
Obama Has Failed to Isolate Netanyahu
President Obama and his staff thought they were being very clever by throwing in the declaration that the 1967 borders were the baseline for future Middle East peace talks into his speech on the Arab Spring protests on the eve of a visit by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. They calculated Netanyahu would have no choice but to accept this last-minute slap across the face from his country’s only ally. And if he did talk back, they figured he would find himself isolated without the backing of Israel’s allies in Congress and with most of the American media lined up solidly against him.new.castillodeprincesas.com purchase generic cialis Having some sex-inducing foods- The best way to maintain satisfaction in life is to accept the way your body responds to the sexual stimulation.

But Obama appears to have misread the situation. Netanyahu’s strong reply rightly declaring that the 1967 borders were indefensible may have infuriated the White House, but, contrary to their plan, not everybody is jeering his defiance.The Washington Post editorial page took the president to school on Friday for injecting a counter-productive irritant into Middle East policy.

Top Ten Reasons to Support Herman Cain for President
By C. Edmund WrightEven those conservatives who will not vote for Herman Cain to win the Republican nomination should hope that he does run — and that his candidacy lasts a long time during the nomination process, perhaps even succeeding.
Not the least of reasons is that a Cain candidacy would be a hoot. And I do not mean that in a derisive or condescending way at all. I mean that it would be the kind of doggone honest and refreshing campaign the country needs. It would be the opposite of the stale McCain run. Cain does not speak Washington drivel, and he’s not afraid to take a strong position. Dare I say it? He’ll call a spade a spade, and he’ll reach across the aisle only to smack someone down. He will admit what McCain would not: that we do have a lot to fear from an Obama presidency.
Herman Cain is peerless among the long list of potential candidates — and his impact on the field and the direction of the party will be in the direction of free enterprise, less government, and speaking with boldness — you know, pretty much the opposite of what the GOP has done since Newt’s Congress lost steam in the mid- to late ’90s.To codify, here are the top reasons to support Cain based on my observation of the man over a period of years:10. The “race card”:9. Been there, done that
8. Not forgettable:
7. Will break every rule set for him by “strategists”:
6. Will really get under the skin of the Washingtonian class:
5. Will not get in way of the 2010 Congress’ momentum:
4. Never held office before:
3. Ann Coulter’s second-favorite pick:
2. Will not be cowed by the new speech police:And the number one reason to support a Cain candidacy? It opens the door to a ticket of Cain and Haley Barbour in some order.

Fox News has this on the Rapture Kerfuffle
Believers’ reactions mixed to unfulfilled doomsday
The hour of the apocalypse came quietly and went the same way — leaving those who believed that Saturday evening would mark the world’s end confused, or more faithful, or just philosophical.Believers had spent months warning the world of the pending cataclysm. Some had given away earthly belongings. Others took long journeys to be with loved ones. And there were those who drained their savings accounts.All were responding to the May 21 doomsday message by Harold Camping, an 89-year-old retired civil engineer who has built a multi-million-dollar Christian media empire that publicizes his apocalyptic prediction.“I had some skepticism but I was trying to push the skepticism away because I believe in God,” said Keith Bauer — who hopped in his minivan in Maryland and drove his family 3,000 miles to California for the Rapture.He started his day in the bright morning sun outside the gated Camping’s Oakland headquarters of Family Radio International.“I was hoping for it because I think heaven would be a lot better than this earth,” said Bauer, a tractor-trailer driver who began the voyage west last week, figuring that if he “worked last week, I wouldn’t have gotten paid anyway, if the Rapture did happen.”According to Camping, the destruction was likely to have begun its worldwide march as it became 6 p.m. in the various time zones, although some believers said Saturday the exact timing was never written in stone.He had been projecting the apocalyptic prediction for years far and wide via broadcasts and websites.In New York’s Times Square, Robert Fitzpatrick, of Staten Island, said he was surprised when the six o’clock hour simply came and went. He had spent his own money to put up advertising about the end of the world.“I can’t tell you what I feel right now,” he said, surrounded by tourists. “Obviously, I haven’t understood it correctly because we’re still here.”
There are a whole lot of us who have just had it and that Israel speech was the last straw. I hope our Jewish friends have opened their eyes to the damage this man has already caused for them.
Glad you are blogging again!
Herman Cain has been on my radar for a little while now, and I think he would make a WONDERFUL president!
Don’t know if you’ve caught all of my Facebook posts since Obummer’s speech on Thursday, but lets just say I am furious over his Israel policy. Been contacting my senators and my rep too. Shameful-simply shameful that so many American Jews supported BO the way they did. I seriously hope that this will change their way of thinking but I’m not hopeful-so many of them a such proud liberals.
