• Turning Point - At Least For Me - 'That insipid, haughty, pretentious jerk uttered another one of his absurd statements about our men and women in uniform ... and in a flash my fear of Democrats and their disdain for our military services overcame any desire I had to put Republicans over my knee.'
                  Neal Boortz
  
• Jihad Is Fun! Vote Democrat! - 'For those of you keeping score at home, John Kerry has now called members of the U.S. military (a) stupid, (b) crazy, (c) murderers, (d) rapists, (e) terrorizers of Iraqi women and children.'
                  Ann Coulter, Human Events
  
• Losing old friends - 'Ruling out of court every possible Israeli response to attacks upon its citizenry effectively denies Israel the right to defend itself. In our rough neighborhood, nations that do not vigorously defend themselves will not long survive. I can no longer be friends with those incapable of acknowledging that simple truth.'
                  Jonathan Rosenblum, Jewish World Review
  
• Don't Vote? - 'When it finally came to the point that I could no longer bear reading the AARP publications' constant onslaught of Democrat Party talking points, not so cleverly disguised as informative articles, I said 'Enough!''
                  Russ Vaughn, American Thinker
  
• Fake Pollgasms linked to Rats' electile dysfunction -- study - 'The press says Democrats are really fired up this time, like never before -- I guess that's why Air America just filed for bankruptcy. First it was North Korea's nuke, then it was Air America -- that's two bombs from the Left in a week.'
                  World Net Daily
  
• Democrats' agenda found! - 'The Crack-Cocaine Equitable Sentencing Act, sponsored by Rep. Charles Rangel, D-N.Y. The bill would eliminate the mandatory minimum sentence for crack-cocaine convictions. Finally - a bill to start reversing the silly tough-on-crime mindset that has kept far too many crack-cocaine dealers behind bars.'
                  World Net Daily
  
• Just Why Democrats Are 'Dangerous' When It Comes To America's Defense - 'While Democrats in Congress always assert they "support our troops," their political policies and actions have continually undermined our nation's fight to win the war on terror and defend America. Here is their national security record:'
                  Investor's Business Daily
  
• Two Shoo-Ins for NY - ' The elections of 2006 might as well be canceled. Even though the Democrats will probably nominate two of the most controversial people in American politics, Hillary Clinton for senator and Attorney General Eliot Spitzer for governor, they will probably face no serious challenge.'

• Brave New Schools: Why Johnny is reading Islamist propaganda - ''America does not comprehend Muslim resolve to make America Islam,' Shroder wrote. 'Suicide bombers have already demonstrated their willingness to kill and die for it.''
                  Bob Unruh, WorldNetDaily
  
• Some sobering lessons from Muslim taxi drivers - 'Jews and Mormons do not believe that non-Jews are required to change their behavior owing to Judaism's or Mormonism's distinctive laws. Religious Muslims, on the other hand, do believe that wherever applicable, non-Muslims should change their behavior in the light of Islam's distinctive laws. And that difference is at least as important to Muslim-non-Muslim relations as the vexing issue of violent Muslims.'
                  Dennis Prager, Jewish World Review
  
• Muslim leader blames women for sex attacks - 'It is said in the state of zina (adultery), the responsibility falls 90 per cent of the time on the woman. Why? Because she possesses the weapon of enticement (igraa).'
                  Richard Kerbaj, The Australian

• US vows full range of armed response - 'In a move designed to reassure Japan and South Korea after the regime of Kim Jong-il vowed to inflict 'merciless blows without hesitation' on any countries enforcing sanctions, Dr Rice said the US would use all its military options if North Korea dared to hit out at its neighbours.'

• CJR's liberal slant - 'Then, Mr. Keefer reveals his real agenda. 'Bush has taken advantage of this like no other president before him,' he asserts, contemptuously adding that 'this is how he governs.' And if the reader didn't get the point the first time, six paragraphs later he again lashes out, declaring that 'Bush's presidency has been historic' in delivering 'a brand of spin that tiptoes to the edge of out-and-out lying without making obviously false claims.' Of course, coming so soon after eight years of President Clinton, whose parsing of 'the meaning of 'is' ' will remain the standard of 'tiptoe[ing] to the edge of out-and-out lying' for generations, Mr. Keefer's assertions about the Bush White House are patently absurd.'

                  William Sim, Bloomberg.com
  
• Knaves: Sen. Edward Kennedy, for letting everyone know how great he really is - 'Mr. Kennedy has indeed had a long (some say distinguished, others say, well, other things) career at the center of 20th- century American politics. But for someone who has spent an entire life as a politician, you'd think Mr. Kennedy might have found a more politically savvy way to secure his place in history. Still, it could be worse. Mr. Kennedy could have asked for some real estate on Mt. Rushmore.'

• An Open Letter from the Red States to the Blue States - 'Those of you with a nominal understanding of Judeo/Christian principles know that Christians should feel an obligation to minister to the poor and to rescue the oppressed from the hands of their oppressors. Many of you blues feel the same obligation, but you blunder when you try to put this concept into action. You mistake government redistribution of wealth with social justice. You comfort yourselves with a belief in the good works of a bloated, inefficient federal bureaucracy. You feel free to use the government to rob Peter to pay Paul, but you fail to notice when most of the money taken from Peter never even makes it to Paul.'

• Independent Women's Forum Denounces Racist Depictions of Dr. Condoleezza Rice in Popular Editorial Cartoons - ''The depiction of Dr. Condoleezza Rice by Jeff Danziger, Pat Oliphant and Garry Trudeau as an ebonics speaking, big-lipped, black mammy who just loves her 'massa' is a disturbing trend in editorial cartoons,' said Michelle D. Bernard, senior vice president of the Independent Women's Forum. 'These cartoons take the racism of the liberals who profess respect and adoration for black Americans to a new level. It is revolting.''

• Clarke Testimony Released - 'Clarke's credibility has long been in tatters, but the final blow was delivered today when the joint Select Committee on Intelligence released the transcript of his testimony before that committee on June 11, 2002. Clarke's testimony is completely devoid of any suggestion that he delivered any warning of any kind to Rice or any other member of the Bush administration, let alone any claim that any such warning was disregarded. In fact, what is notable about Clarke's appearance before the Joint Committee is that the Bush administration was scarcely mentioned at all.'

• CIA funds liberal efforts - ''The products of the [center] have a consistent theme: They criticize the Bush administration and provide ammunition for the Kerry campaign,' said one U.S. official who has read the resulting reports and studies. This official said the academic outreach is the Counterterrorist Center's way of "buying off" criticism of the CIA and the intelligence community by providing hundreds of thousands of dollars in contracts and conferences.'
                  Bill Gertz, Washington Times
  
• Democratic double-voting - 'According to an investigation by the New York Daily News, approximately 46,000 New Yorkers are registered to vote in both New York and in Florida, and of those voters, 68 percent are Democrats, 12 percent are Republicans and 16 percent are independent. Almost 1,700 voters that registered in both states requested that absentee ballots be sent to their homes in the other state, where they are also registered. Those numbers suggest that up to 1,000 illegal votes were cast for Al Gore in Florida. The issue is important because the Democrats continue to claim that George W. Bush stole Florida in the 2000 election. Apparently, however, it was the Democrats who were cheating.'

• Clarke Tipped in the Wrong Direction, Is warning Osama associates "taking terrorism seriously"? - 'On March 7, 1999, Clarke called a UAE official to express his concerns about possible associations between Emirati officials and Bin Ladin. Clarke later wrote in a memorandum of this conversation that the call had been approved at an interagency meeting and cleared with the CIA. When the former Bin Ladin unit chief found out about Clarke's call, he questioned CIA officials, who denied having given such a clearance. Imagery confirmed that less than a week after Clarke's phone call the camp was hurriedly dismantled, and the site was deserted. CIA officers, including Deputy Director for Operations Pavitt, were irate.'

• Millennium Docs Destroyed by Berger Before 9/11 Hearings - 'A chronological review of hearings and staff statement transcripts available on the 9/11 Commission Web site shows that the Millennium plot was not covered in any detail until public hearings in March and April 2004, more than six months after the Berger thefts.'

• Report Disputes Wilson's Claims on Trip, Wife's Role - 'The panel found that Wilson's report, rather than debunking intelligence about purported uranium sales to Iraq, as he has said, bolstered the case for most intelligence analysts. And contrary to Wilson's assertions and even the government's previous statements, the CIA did not tell the White House it had qualms about the reliability of the Africa intelligence that made its way into 16 fateful words in President Bush's January 2003 State of the Union address.'

• Michael Moore's Hate Soup - 'even more startling was the reaction I have heard this week from other people who saw the “documentary” and who are Republicans, conservatives or political moderates – but all well-educated. All of them were overwhelmed by Moore’s “Fahrenheit 9/11” and said they already have decided to vote against Bush and for John Kerry. I count now about a dozen people that I would not have believed could be so affected, including one of my doctors.'
                  Christopher Ruddy, NewsMax
  
• Fifty-six Deceits in Fahrenheit 911 - 'Edward Koch: A year after 9/11, I was part of a panel discussion on BBC-TV’s “Question Time” show which aired live in the United Kingdom. A portion of my commentary at that time follows: One of the panelists was Michael Moore…During the warm-up before the studio audience, Moore said something along the lines of “I don’t know why we are making so much of an act of terror. It is three times more likely that you will be struck by lightening than die from an act of terror.”…I mention this exchange because it was not televised, occurring as it did before the show went live. It shows where he was coming from long before he produced “Fahrenheit 9/11.”'
                  Dave Kopel
  
• Some of the main points in ‘Fahrenheit 9/11’ really aren’t very fair at all - 'the film’s basic point—that the flights represented perhaps the supreme example of the Saudi government’s influence in the Bush White House-is almost impossible to defend. Why? Because while the film claims—correctly—that the “White House” approved the flights, it fails to note who exactly in the White House did so. It wasn’t the president, or the vice president or anybody else supposedly corrupted by Saudi oil money. It was Richard Clarke, the counter-terrorism czar who was a holdover from the Clinton administration and who has since turned into a fierce Bush critic.'

• Inside the Asylum: Why the UN and Old Europe are Worse Than You Think - 'When he was in England recently, Mr. Moore expanded on his unique brand of populism, saying of Americans, 'They are possibly the dumbest people on the planet... in thrall to conniving, thieving smug [expletive]. We Americans suffer from an enforced ignorance. We don't know about anything that's happening outside our country. Our stupidity is embarrassing.'

• Moore Criticism - 'Mr Baker's new novel, Checkpoint, features two characters who spend much of its 115 pages discussing how to assassinate President George Bush.

• 'Malaise' Maestro - When it comes to economic performance, there's no contest: Apart from the early years of the Depression, Jimmy Carter's brief tenure as president was the worst in the 20th century.
                  Investor's Business Daily
  
• Look Who's Talking - Apparently the man whose idea of leadership was to sit in front of a fireplace and blame everything on America's "malaise" does not consider Islamofascists turning passenger jets into manned cruise missiles and flying them into skyscrapers a direct threat.

  Nor does he consider himself responsible for the chain of events that gave us not only 9/11, but al-Qaida, the Taliban, Hezbollah and a nuclear Iran and North Korea.

• When Former Presidents Assail the Chief - Nothing rattles Washington quite like a good violation of unwritten rules, especially when the violator and the violated are both presidents (past and present, respectively).
                  Mark Leibovich, NY Times
  
• Not Peanuts, but Idiot-theid - Jimmy Carter's provincialism is what made his the worst presidency of our lives, and with a nuclear Iran on the horizon and emboldened terrorists who, let's not block it from our memories, took down the World Trade Center towers and would easily have done more if they could. Jimmy Carter's weakness emboldened the Islamic leaders who led the Iran Revolution and Jimmy's pie in the sky, 'religious man to religious man' notes to the Ayatollah only made Iran realize the true weakness of America. It wasn't long before American hostages were taken from the embassy.

• Jimmy Carter Shielded by the Media? Of Course. - But this treatment of controversial Carter didn’t pass the smell test of Atlanta Journal-Constitution readers who have been stopping their subscriptions and writing letters to the editor.

• (Idiot President) Jimmy Carter: Revolutionary War 'Unnecessary'/Iraq a 'Quagmire' - robably the WORST of all our former presidents, Jimmy Carter (left wing loon, who wouldn't have agreed that taking on Hitler was a good idea) said the following on MSNBC's Hardball:
                  The Blue Site
  
• Jimmy Carter once again refuses to shut up - The Washington Post runs a short AP item today with the following headline: 'Carter 'Disturbed' by Direction of U.S.' The headline should have been truncated to 'Carter 'Disturbed.'' Because he is.
                  Pillage Idiot
  
• Useful old idiot - That stellar president of the 1970’s is up to his old tricks in Germany’s Der Spiegel magazine. Unless you are Cindy Sheehan, prepare to be nauseated by this peanut-brained relic of a failed presidency who fancies himself the elder statesman of modern America.
                  Jeremy 'Panda Man' Weidenhof, Lone Star Times
  
• Useful Idiot - To promote sales of his sanctimonious new book, Peanut joins the hit-and-run political campaign to discredit the administration. Had he been a President with any judgment, there would not have been a 9/11.
                  Thomas E. Brewton, Conservative Monitor
  
• Jimmy Carter's devotion to human rights doesn't extend to Israel - While you clamor against U.S. approval of Israel's "demands" in your editorials, as if calling for the cessation of terrorist acts is somehow unreasonable, there's nary a mention of a propaganda machine that has thoroughly poisoned today's Palestinian youth and all but guaranteed another generation of bloody conflict. For a man who delights in being viewed as a moral compass, why such deafening silence?
                  SJackson, Free Republic
  
• Idiot Extraordinaire - Seems the Worst President in the Post Civil War Era deemed the Revolutionary War unnecessary in a conservation with Chris Matthews on CNBC’s Screwball almost two years ago.
                  Texas Hold ‘Em Blogger
  
• Useful Idiot - A one-term president whose legacy includes the coddling of the Iranian "revolutionaries" who took American citizens hostage for 444 days and giving away the Panama Canal, has become the darling of the left by taking on humanitarian causes. Humanitarian causes are all well and good, but Carter takes the stance of "blame America first," which is why he is extremely popular with organizations such as Amnesty International.

• A Failure As a President and an Embarrassment as a Former President - Jimmuh was responsible for the fall of the Shah of Iran to the Ayatoilet Cockamamie and the establishment of that insane Moslem dictatorship. He thought he solved it when he cut off the U.S. from their oil. He left it to become the terrorist capital without so much as a whimper. Alexander Haig was just on Fox News - he said Jimmy Carter did more to aid the cause of radical fundamentalist Islam than any other president, first by not helping the Shah of Iran when Khomeni deposed him; second by doing nothing during the hostage crisis.

• Four years after leaving the White House, Hillary Clinton plots her return - 'She is inevitable as a candidate, but not as a president. There will be serious drawbacks and problems with her candidacy. When she speaks in a large hall she shouts and it is shrill; she sounds like some boomer wife from hell who's unpacking the grocery bags and telling you that you forgot not just the mayo but the mustard.
  But there is an old paper trail, there is a record of radical statements and writings by Mrs. Clinton.'
                  Peggy Noonan, WSJ
  
• Hillary's Senate record - 'Our friends at the National Review spotted this post-election howler in an Associated Press dispatch: 'For 2008, the presumptive leading presidential candidates are New York Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, a Northeastern centrist . . .' Recalling Mrs. Clinton's pre-senatorial work for Marian Wright Edelman's radical Children's Defense Fund and Robert Treuhaft's 'revolutionary' and Black Panther law firm, the National Review understandably responded to this evolving new line on Hillary by exclaiming, 'Whoa, whoa, whoa!''
                  Washington Times Editorial
  
• It's Bill's Library, But Hill's Campaign - 'Events in Little Rock had less to do with a library retrospective of the Bill Clinton years than a campaign launch for the prospective presidency of Hillary Clinton. Doubt it? Then why it was Hillary, not Bill, who appeared on all the talk shows? It's his library. But it's her candidacy.'
                  Dick Morris, SITNEWS
  
• Will 2000 fund-raiser scam bite Hillary? - 'Writes Tonken in describing the departure of the Clintons the night of the gala: 'Just before they got into the limo, I handed the president gifts from me, Stan Lee and Peter Paul: for him, a custom humidor and a handmade gold watch worth tens of thousands; for Hillary, a necklace that cost eight grand. The first lady disliked it and later sent it back.''
                  James Jefferson, Yahoo News
  
• Now or never for Hillary: Former White House adviser says Clinton won't ever be prez unless on Kerry ticket - 'Morris says the VP spot is Clinton's for the taking, saying, 'For [Kerry] to spurn the former first lady would be to cause a schism in the party. He'll be pulling knives out of his back for the entire race.''

• Iran missiles sharpen aim with U.S. technology Chinese give 'ecstatic' Tehran GPS system it got during Clinton years - 'Tehran has procured and integrated a Chinese missile navigation system into the Shihab-3 apparently based on the Global Positioning System, or GPS. In one test, the Iranians skipped a generation in technology and posed a threat to U.S. interests throughout the Middle East. '

• Impulse buy? - 'The ex-President strolled into the Alpha Omega jewelry store in Harvard Square Tuesday afternoon and, Lowdown hears, plunked down $10,000 for a stunning diamond necklace - and $20,000 more for a whole bunch of other baubles. Asked yesterday if she has seen the necklace, Hillary muttered: 'I'm not going to talk to you about that,' and walked away.'

• POLITICS/WAR: Paralysis - 'Clinton treated the Cole incident exactly as the current critics of the Iraq war would have treated Saddam Hussein: by giving bin Laden the benefit of every doubt, by treating it as a law enforcement matter requiring indictable evidence before one moves to protect the nation. The consequences of this approach, as we now know, were catastrophic.'

• Harry Potter and Bill Clinton - 'It is startlingly instructive to see Bill Clinton seize the public limelight again immediately after the funeral rites for Ronald Reagan, to juxtapose the dignity of those rites with the deception of Mr. Clinton's book, the national outpouring of grief and admiration for Mr. Reagan with the adolescent infatuation for Slick Willie.'

• Turning Point - At Least For Me - 'That insipid, haughty, pretentious jerk uttered another one of his absurd statements about our men and women in uniform ... and in a flash my fear of Democrats and their disdain for our military services overcame any desire I had to put Republicans over my knee.'
                  Neal Boortz
  
• Kerry's '72 Army Comments Mirror Latest - '"I am convinced a volunteer army would be an army of the poor and the black and the brown," Kerry wrote. "We must not repeat the travesty of the inequities present during Vietnam. I also fear having a professional army that views the perpetuation of war crimes as simply 'doing its job.''
                  John Solomon,
  
• The Curse of Kerry - 'But when someone mis-speaks, the normal human reaction is to apologize and feel a little humility. (That's spelled H-U-M-I-L-I-T-Y, Sen. Kerry.) When Kerry instead went on the attack, it only fueled the sense that he'd been caught out saying something horrendous.'

• Kerry's got troubles: Vietnam won't go away - 'The Swifties campaign, which devastated Kerry in August, is just getting started, and Kerry has only himself to blame. Three weeks ago, President Bush offered Kerry a way out by suggesting that both parties move to stop soft-money 527 ads. Kerry turned the President down because his side had raised vastly more 527 money than the Republicans. This was a penny-wise, pound-foolish miscalculation of epic size. Such public pressure puts Kerry in a very awkward position. If he keeps stonewalling, people (and not just Republican people) naturally will wonder what he is hiding. If he does sign Form 180, his opponents will go over it, slowly and painfully. If they find major discrepancies, Kerry's finished. Even if they don't, the long scrutiny will insure that Vietnam remains part of the campaign right up to the election.'
                  NY Daily News
  
• Ben Barnes: John Kerry's Unbelievable Last-Ditch Weapon - 'his bomb is an already-taped Dan Rather interview with former Texas Lt. Governor Ben Barnes in which Barnes will hint, and deceptive CBS editing will strongly imply, that during the Vietnam War the Bush family pressured him to use politics to get a young George W. Bush into the Texas Air National Guard. Barnes, facing potential charges of yet more wrongdoing, told his National Guard story in a deposition in a successful effort to politically deflect his own responsibility in this matter. In multiple re-tellings since 1999, the details of Barnes' story have changed several times.'
                  Lowell Ponte, FrontPage Magazine
  
• Yesterday's Lies: Steve Pitkin and the Winter Soldiers - 'On the second day of the conference, Pitkin was surrounded by a group of the event's leaders, who said they needed more witnesses and wanted him to speak. Pitkin protested that he didn’t have anything to say. Kerry said, 'Surely you had to have seen some of the atrocities.' Pitkin insisted that he hadn't, and the group's mood turned menacing. One of the other leaders leaned in and whispered, 'It’s a long walk back to Baltimore.' Pitkin finally agreed to 'testify.' The Winter Soldier leaders told Pitkin exactly what they wanted -– stories about rape, brutality, shooting prisoners, and racism. Kerry assured him that 'the American people will be grateful for what you have to say.''

• It's 2002 Again - 'You know, if John Kerry weren't so darn electable, the Democrats would be panicking right now. Oh wait, he isn't and they are.'

• Nobles: David Brudnoy, for a life spent fighting the good fight - 'The National Review lost a longtime contributor when Mr. Brudnoy, 64, died Thursday night of cancer. An established conservative journalist, Mr. Brudnoy was best known for his nightly Boston radio talk show, where he debated guests on everything from politics, books, philosophy and movies. For those who knew him, read him or listened to him, however, Mr. Brudnoy was also the consummate gentleman, a man of biting wit, humor and grace.'
                  Nobles and Knaves, Washington Times
  
• Some Republicans Predict Upheaval Within the Party - 'The future of the GOP will be shaped by party intellectuals, think-tank fellows and constituencies seeking to alter the balance of power within the party, as well as by battles in Congress over spending and taxes. But added to that is the battle for the party's 2008 presidential nomination. With Vice President Cheney already ruling out a run for the presidency, there is no heir apparent.'

• Restoration Weekend: The Swift Boat Vets - 'Nothing that John Kerry did then was challenged, and later he got rid of the fatigues and was no longer a preeminent internationally known war protestor. He traded in his fatigues for his pinstriped suits and now he was a U.S. senator. Miraculously, the same medals that I saw him, as did hundreds of other reporters and camera crews there who saw him throw over the fence were on his credenza in his new senate office. No one challenged that, no one challenges transformation from war protestor to war hero.'
                  Swift Boat Vets for Truth, FrontPage Magazine
  
• Some say constitutional provision would let Legislature pick governor - 'Even if Republican Dino Rossi wins the hand recount of the state's extraordinary governor's race, a never-before-used provision in the state constitution could allow the Democrat-controlled Legislature to hand the election to Democrat Christine Gregoire.'
                  Kenneth P. Vogel, The News Tribune
  
• Bush's Greatness - 'Bush's greatness is often misunderstood. He is great not because he showed America how to react to 9/11 but because he showed us how to deal with a still bigger event--the end of the Cold War.'
                  David Gelernter, Weekly Standard
  
• Text of President Bush's Speech - 'The people we have freed won't forget either. Not long ago, seven Iraqi men came to see me in the Oval Office. They had 'X's branded into their foreheads, and their right hands had been cut off, by Saddam Hussein's secret police, the sadistic punishment for imaginary crimes. During our emotional visit one of the Iraqi men used his new prosthetic hand to slowly write out, in Arabic, a prayer for God to bless America. I am proud that our country remains the hope of the oppressed, and the greatest force for good on this earth.'
                  George W. Bush, Washington Post
  
• Sometimes a strategist just has to sit back and gasp - 'UNTIL President Bush began his speech on the final night of the Republican National Convention, the goal of the United States' anti-terror policy was perceived by a largely supportive public as a bid to assure safety. With a rhetorical flourish worthy of the great speeches of all time, George W. Bush has transformed the war into a battle for liberty. In a speech that was at once eloquent and substantive, sensitive and dynamic, profound and familiar, Bush has risen to a level few presidents have ever reached. Sometimes a strategist just has to sit back and gasp. Occasionally, a seasoned political observer needs to realize that he has seen something extraordinary. Tonight, Bush made me feel like that. The speech satisfied every single political need. He contrasted with Kerry without appearing negative. He demonstrated emotion without pandering. He rose to a level of substantive specificity without becoming wonkish.

  I voted for Gore in 2000, as a true child of the Clinton era. But I decided to vote for Bush on Sept. 12, 2001 when I saw how he handled the threat we face. I used to back Bush because he offered safety; now I support him because he summons us all to an ideal. Before he spoke, supporting Bush was a duty one owed to the fallen. Now, it is an honor.'
                  Dick Morris, Jewish World Review
  

• Little Flash - But Lots of Substance - 'WE NEED this president. Last night, President Bush bravely took center stage in a city long considered enemy territory. He spoke plainly, if not colorfully, and with an astonishing lack of theatrics or pyrotechnics. And almost no slogans. 'Tonight, I will tell you where I stand, what I believe, and where I will lead this country in the next four years,' he declared. And then, the president did something amazing. Almost unprecedented. He kept his word.'
                  Andrea Peyser, NY Post
  
• We Were Americans - 'The Republican Party kicked off its national convention yesterday not with an angry attack on Democrats or their standard-bearer, John Kerry, but by advancing a calm, convincing case for the re-election of George W. Bush. And what a powerful argument it was.'
                  NY Post Editorial
  
• On Target - 'NO wonder Rudy Giuliani, Ed Koch, Mayor Bloomberg and Sen. John McCain brought the Republican Convention to its feet with their stirring pleas to fight terror and re-elect President Bush. Last night's speakers all grasped the essential reality of this year's presidential contest: If the election is about foreign policy Bush will win. But if it is about domestic policy, Kerry will prevail.'
                  Dick Morris, SITNEWS
  
• Bush Bounce A'Building
                  Dick Morris, SITNEWS
  
• Misunderestimating Bush - 'the book is a stinging indictment of a press that is less and less content to simply report the news, favoring instead to put each story “in context.” Due to the overwhelmingly liberal nature of the fourth estate, this has amounted to freely repeating the Left’s view of President Bush’s every initiative.'
                  Shawn Macomber, FrontPage Magazine

• Ambuscade . . . - 'FEMA is not an agency of first responders. It is not the agency responsible for bringing people bottles of water and trays of fresh food, or transporting them out of harm's way. It also has zero law enforcement authority, or personnel. These first-responder jobs are the responsibility of local and state government -- city police and firemen, city transportation and emergency services personnel, state police, and ultimately the state National Guard.'
                   Peter Ferrara, Washington Times
  
• Pork Barrel Projects - 'The paper says much of the funding has been spent not on flood control, but on lawmakers' pet construction projects, including a brand new $750 million canal lock in New Orleans unrelated to flood control.'
                   Brit Hume, Fox News
  
• Setting the Record Straight - 'The governor is a control freak who won't give up her National Guard. The mayor is best suited for leading the preservation hall clarinet and coronet band at an old-fashioned funeral. But it is not the president's job to be the national nanny for basket case cities who need their diapers changed.'
                   John Gibson, Fox News
  
• Political Issues Snarled Plans for Military Help After Hurricane - 'While combat troops can conduct relief missions without the legal authority of the Insurrection Act, Pentagon and military officials say that no active-duty forces could have been sent into the chaos of New Orleans on Wednesday or Thursday without confronting law-and-order challenges. But just as important to the administration were worries about the message that would have been sent by a president ousting a Southern governor of another party from command of her National Guard, according to administration, Pentagon and Justice Department officials.'
                  Eric Lipton, Eric Schmitt, Thom Shanker, NY Times
  
• Multiple failures caused relief crisis - 'The breakdown of the relief operation in New Orleans was the result of multiple failures by city, state and federal authorities.'
                  Paul Reynolds, BBC News
  
• An Unnatural Disaster: A Hurricane Exposes the Man-Made Disaster of the Welfare State - 'The man-made disaster is the welfare state.'
                  Robert Tracinski, Intellectual Activist
  
• Was President Bush Forced to Use the Insurrection Act? - 'Instead of asking why the Democratic leaders of Louisiana failed the people, these sites post disgusting pictures of floating bodies with the message: “George Bush did nothing.” The truth is, the Democratic governor wouldn’t allow Bush to do anything. That floating body belongs to Governor Blanco. She is the one who “did nothing.”'
                  Barbara J. Stock, Chron Watch
  
• Deadly Bureaucracy - 'There have already been a number of instances in which an overly inhibitive bureaucracy prevented an appropriate response to the disaster. For example, on Wednesday of last week a company called my office. With only three hours before rising waters would make the mission impossible, they were anxious to send a rescue helicopter for their stranded employees. They wanted to know who would give them a go-ahead. We could not identify the agency with authority. We heard that FEMA was in charge, that the FAA was in charge, and that the military was in charge. I went in person to talk with a FEMA representative and still could not get a straight answer. Finally we told the company to avoid interfering with Coast Guard missions, but to proceed on its own. Sometimes, asking for forgiveness is better than asking for permission.'
                  Bobby Jindal, WSJ Opinion Journal
  
• Blame Amid the Tragedy - 'And there is definitely a time for accountability; but what isn't fair is to dump on the federal officials and avoid those most responsible--local and state officials who failed to do their job as the first responders. The plain fact is, lives were needlessly lost in New Orleans due to the failure of Louisiana's governor, Kathleen Blanco, and the city's mayor, Ray Nagin.'

• Democrats' anti-Bush petition also seeks political contributions - 'In recent days, Republicans hit back by accusing Democrats of trying to use the human tragedy for political gain. The letter, the GOP said Thursday, was proof. 'It's a disgrace to exploit Hurricane Katrina to raise political funds,' said Brian Nick, spokesman for the National Republican Senatorial Committee.'
                  Susan Jones, CNS News
  
• Dependence on Government, Not Racism, Hurting Black People, Pastor Says - ''The senator must not be aware of all the updates that we were providing you all, because I cannot imagine that he would engage in such personal attacks,' Bush spokesman Scott McClellan said. 'I'd just assume that he is not informed of everything we were doing.''
                  Bill Sammon and Stephen Dinan, Washington Times
  
• A Gathering Storm for the Media - 'There is a fetid stink in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, and it’s not coming just from the fouled waters flooding New Orleans. It also wafts from the putrid reporting of the disaster by the mainstream media.'

• New Orleans ignored its own plans - 'The city of New Orleans followed virtually no aspect of its own emergency management plan in the disaster caused by Hurricane Katrina. New Orleans officials also failed to implement most federal guidelines, which stated that the Superdome was not a safe shelter for thousands of residents.'
                  Audrey Hudson and James G. Lakely, Washington Times
  
• Don't blame only feds: Crime rate, inept pols leveled New Orleans before the storm - 'Let's take a break from the joy of Bush bashing to reveal the dirty little secret of New Orleans: Its local government deserves an F for its planning and response to Katrina. And one other thing: The New Orleans police force would be a joke if it weren't a disgrace.'
                  Michael Goodwin, NY Daily News
  
• Ghost Plan for a Ghost Town - 'But it turns out that emergency-preparedness officials in New Orleans did have a plan, and they did think to use buses to evacuate the city before a major hurricane. They just decided not to fully implement it as Plan A.'
                  Chris Regan & Bryan Preston, National Review
  
• The Mayor Who Failed His City - 'Charged with so heavy a responsibility, Mayor Nagin punted, then passed the buck. The National Hurricane Center called Nagin Saturday night asking him to evacuate New Orleans, and President Bush also begged him to get his people to safety. As mayor, the final decision was Nagin's. He was expected to issue such an order 48 hours before the storm made landfall; however, the storm touched down and the levees gave way less than 48 hours after his proclamation.'
                  Ben Johnson, FrontPage Magazine
  
• Ray Nagin: School Buses Not Good Enough - 'Turns out, Nagin turned his nose up at the yellow buses, demanding more comfortable Greyhound coaches instead.'
                  Carl Limbacher and staff, NewsMax
  
• Officials Warned Residents 'You'll be on your own' - 'In scripted appearances being recorded now, officials such as Mayor Ray Nagin, local Red Cross Executive Director Kay Wilkins and City Council President Oliver Thomas drive home the word that the city does not have the resources to move out of harm's way an estimated 134,000 people without transportation.'
                  Drudge Report
  
• New Orleans Didn’t Just Go Nuts -- It’s Been Nuts - 'The storm may have triggered the violence, but it did not cause it. What we saw in New Orleans was what happens in America’s most murderous city when the criminals realize that all the cops have left. It wasn’t desperation, or insanity, or protest. It was New Orleans, without police.'

• Would-be rescuers cool their heels - 'Since Friday, they have been sitting tight at the luxury hotel with members of five other teams of specialists from California, Nevada and Washington state – about 500 people all diverted to Dallas on the way to the Gulf Coast. There they have watched television reports, itching to help the stranded victims of Katrina but ordered by FEMA officials to stay idle.'
