DANIEL GREENFIELD: VICTORY IN LIBYA…DON’T ASK FOR WHOM OR HOW OR WHY

http://sultanknish.blogspot.com/ The good news is that victory is all but assured in Libya. Just don’t ask for whom, or how or why. Or any other questions for that matter.

MARK STEYN: SPEECHWORLD VS. REALITY

http://www.steynonline.com/ The Democrats seem to have given up on budgets. Hey, who can blame them? They’ve got a ballpark figure: Let’s raise two trillion dollars in revenue every year, and then spend four trillion. That seems to work pretty well, so why get hung up on a lot of fine print? Harry Reid says the […]

DANIEL GREENFIELD: THE WEEKLY ROUNDUP

http://sultanknish.blogspot.com/ What’s your mental image of prison. Breaking rocks, risky showers and listening to trains go by where rich folks are eating from a fancy dining car? Forget all that.
