THE BLAGO AFFAIR

"Nothing is more essential to the establishment of manners in a State than that all persons employed in places of power and trust must be men of unexceptionable characters."

Samuel Adams

SILENCE=ACCEPTANCE Mark Steyn's usual insight!

Mark Steyn sends us all a warning in his column analyzing the Bombay (Why did they change the name to Mumbai???) Islamic Terrorist attacks. We had better all take heed! A couple of pertinent paragraphs:

"...The discovery that, for the first time in an Indian terrorist atrocity, Jews had been attacked, tortured, and killed produced from the New York Times a serene befuddlement: “It is not known if the Jewish center was strategically chosen, or if it was an accidental hostage scene.”

Hmm. Greater Bombay forms one of the world’s five biggest cities. It has a population of nearly 20 million. But only one Jewish center, located in a building that gives no external clue as to the bounty waiting therein. An “accidental hostage scene” that one of the “practitioners” just happened to stumble upon? “I must be the luckiest jihadist in town. What are the odds?”"

and

"Last week, a Canadian critic reprimanded me for failing to understand that Muslims feel “vulnerable.” Au contraire, they project tremendous cultural confidence, as well they might: They’re the world’s fastest-growing population. A prominent British Muslim announced the other day that, when the United Kingdom becomes a Muslim state, non-Muslims will be required to wear insignia identifying them as infidels. If he’s feeling “vulnerable,” he’s doing a terrific job of covering it up."

Please realize the WAR that we are in. Anyone care to criticize Mark Steyn's take?

WISH I HAD SAID THAT:

George Will in a column titled "Fairness Doctrine Fouls Out" in which he eviscerates the left's pro-fairness doctrine argument starts with this paragraph:

"WASHINGTON -- Reactionary liberalism, the ideology of many Democrats, holds that inconvenient rights, such as secret ballots in unionization elections, should be repealed; that existing failures, such as GM, should be preserved; and, with special perversity, that repealed mistakes, such as the "fairness doctrine," should be repeated. That Orwellian name was designed to disguise the doctrine's use as the government's instrument for preventing fair competition in the broadcasting of political commentary."

Anyone care to comment on his view of Reactionary liberalism which is rampant in our society?

You can read the column here.
