President Obama believes he is “the decider” on health care reform; Sarah Palin wants reality show; Another former GITMO detainee returns to the battlefield
President Obama health care speech yesterday was very reminiscent of George W. Bush’s “I’m the decider” speech. President Obama is igoring the will of the People because he believes he’s “the decider” on health care.
Sarah Palin wants a reality show to follow her and family around in Alaska. Still think Sarah Palin is the savior [...]

Looks like we can go into the weekend on a positive note:
TALIBAN killers have blown themselves up laying booby-trap bombs, we can reveal.
Up to 20 are thought to have died planting Improvised Explosive Devices.
They were racing to plant the IEDs before the Allied offensive Operation Moshtarak. The triggers on the IEDs have become so sensitive [...]
Lt. Col. Ralph Peters on our military’s politically correct Rules of Engagement
Lt. Col. Ralph Peters discusses the politically correct Afghan strategy and the suicidal Rules of Engagement our military and civilian leaders have sent our servicemen and women into battle with.
He’s in agreement with me that Taliban so-called “reconciliation” is nothing more than bribery. He also describes our counterinsurgency strategy as “touch-feely.” He’s spot on.
20% terrorist recidivism rate acceptable to Obama’s terrorism czar; Obama dictatorial-like behavior continues; Ellis Washington on Thomas Sowell
President Obama’s counterterrorism czar believes that a 20% terrorist recidivism rate is “acceptable.” He compares terrorists to criminals (I know, it’s shocking an Obama administration official would do such a thing!). We shouldn’t be satisfied with a 20% recidivism rate. We should strive for 0%.

The Obama administration is helping Afghanistan President Hamid Karzai raise $100 million to bribe the Taliban to stop supporting and committing acts of terrorism.

Robert Gates (aka the new John McCain): Reconciling (bribing) the Taliban is “crucial” to Afghan success
Secretary of Defense Robert Gates, or as I like to call him, the new John McCain (because he’s a liberal media darling), is out perpetuating the absurd notion that we must reconcile (it’s really bribery) with the Taliban and some al-Qaeda (AQ) members.
Let’s define “reconciliation” in the context of the wars in Iraq and now [...]
Suicide bomber who attacked CIA officers in Afghanistan was a double agent
This is why we can’t negotiate with terrorists. This is why they can’t be reconciled.
The suicide bomber who killed eight people inside a CIA base in Afghanistan was a Jordan-born terrorist double agent who was invited to the base because he claimed to have information targeting Osama bin Laden’s second-in-command, a former senior U.S. intelligence [...]
Taliban claim attack on CIA was retaliation for U.S. Predator drone strikes
A senior Afghan Taliban leader is claiming that the recent attack that killed 7 CIA officers in Afghanistan was retaliation for U.S. drone strikes that have successfully targeted Taliban and al-Qaeda leadership.
“We attacked this base because the team there was organizing drone strikes in Loya Paktia and surrounding area,” the commander said, referring to the [...]
