Leslie's Omnibus

Bus Fumes

"Why is my report card lying?"


Because someone's nanny state was more worried about your feelings than about your education. Duh.

International Freedom Center? More like a gigantic smack in the face to families of 9/11 victims. Just say no. Go on. Sign the petition.

Update: See? It's starting to work!

"What Durbin faced was the bubbling up from the blogs and the pounding of the drums," said Daou, who first began monitoring the bloggers and feeding them information when he worked for Sen. John Kerry's presidential campaign. "This is a political tool, and it's manufactured outrage, it's feigned outrage, and it's extremely effective."

Manufactured outrage??? My ass! What Durbin faced was having to take responsibility for his highly inflamatory words. And it was his Illinois constituency, many of whom are Army, Navy and Marine Reserves, who held him most accountable.

On Wednesday, Daley lauded Durbin for having the "courage" to apologize and said voters will quickly forgive Durbin.

I forgave him. But I will not forget this... and it will influence my voting next time around.

We do not need a flag-burning amendment to the U.S. Constitution. It's already covered under the first amendment. If such an amendment passes both houses and the President, then we become equally as fanatical and dangerous as those who riot because a Koran is desecrated. We don't have to like it -- and I really don't -- but we have to leave this one alone. That's one of those rights our men and women in uniform are fighting to protect.

The Supremes once again over-Raich themselves. Be afraid. Be very afraid.

Update: I'm with this guy. The GOP, if it has one iota of sense, will go to work here, instead of pushing that flag burning nonsense.

(A big tip of the cap to the Instapundit.)
