Barbarians March, Christians Die, Obama Talks

Just a few days ago the “world community” from the U.N. to the White House were in spasms of righteous indignation about Gaza. More specifically they were indignant about civilians dying in Israeli airstrikes and not so indignant about Hamas’s use of the civilian population as human shields.

Poll Bad News For Left; How Will Conservatives Respond?

A new Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll highlights the depth of America’s anxiety about the economy and political situation.

First off, this poll is of adults. Polls of adults tend to overstate Democratic strength, electorally speaking, while polls of registered voters or likely voters tend to favor Republicans.
