"OBAMA'S BIRTHDAY: THE CURE FOR A FAILED CITIZENRY"--KEVIN JACKSON

Kevin Jackson of The Black Sphere has penned a little piece over at the American Thinker. In it, Kevin highlights some of Obama's accomplishments since being placed as POTUS.  Kevin's a fair guy, no one would argue with that, and his piece points out just how fair he can be.  Below is a snip where Kevin gives kudos to Obama for going above and beyond in bolstering some of our most important industries.  Oh, and by the way, Kevin gives us the skinny on the really big news of the day: It's Obama's 50th birthday.  Just reportin' what I read.

"Be thee of light heart and rejoice in the spirit of "hope and change," for the gun and ammunition industry is booming, as are any industries related to "survival," e.g. water purification, bio-diesel generators, dehydrated foods, and so on.  Kudos to Obama for giving Americans so much hope, that many of us are planning our survival for when the dollar collapses and anarchy is the order of the day."

"You Call This Winning?"--Ann Barnhardt

As Ann Barnhardt is known to do, she says what's on her mind. The war over Washington spending, the Tea Party reps in congress and Obama are on her mind today. Here's a snip from her American Thinker column, We The Stupid:

"I stand here in abject stupefaction. The so-called "right" or "Tea Party" in this republic is being so thoroughly rolled and defeated that I am struggling to come up with an adequate violent submission metaphor that does not involve prison rape . . . and they honesty think that they're "winning." Really? You call this winning?"

"THE STORY OF THE EGYPTIAN REVOLUTION"

The story comes from American Thinker, and is told by someone on the ground in Egypt. Focused mainly on how and what has happened in the past week, it also points out the personal struggle for survival you don't often see in news coverage.

Of particular interest for me, is the role of social media. When you fully understand the power of this new tool and how it was used, it becomes clear why the Egyptian government reached for the Internet "kill switch." More importantly, it becomes clear why Obama wants the same capability at his fingertips.

SARAH HEATH, BARRY SOETERO: TWO DIFFERENT JOURNEYS

In his column at American Thinker, Jack Cashill chronicles the lives of Obama and Palin. In it, he starts at the beginning of their lives and describes how both got to where they are today. And, with the help of the fringe media, we know just about everything about Palin. Obama, not so much:

In the spring of 1964, Sarah Heath, then just three months old, flew into backwater Skagway, Alaska (population 650) aboard a 1930s-era Grunman Goose to start a new life with her parents, brother, and sister.

At that same time, in America's other new outlier state, Hawaii, two-year-old Barry Obama was just getting used to a fatherless existence in the otherwise-comfortable world his white grandparents and occasionally his mother would make for him. --continue reading.
