Jon Voight’s Letter To Obama: “Your Destruction Of This Country…”

Actor and now political pundit Jon Voight has written a letter to Obama published in the Washington Times. Perhaps, with luck, it’s something the president will never see.

President Obama:

You will be the first American president that lied to the Jewish people, and the American people as well, when you said that you would defend Israel, the only Democratic state in the Middle East, against all their enemies.

What? No greeting like “Dear…”? It’s not only Israel that has Voight angry.

You have brought to Arizona a civil war, once again defending the criminals and illegals, creating a …

McChrystal: “I’ve Compromised The Mission”

General Stanley McChrystal has told the White House, “I’ve compromised the mission,” according to ABC’s Jake Tapper.

Whether he did so irrevocably is at the top of the agenda in his Oval Office meeting with President Obama this morning. The president will press him as to what he was thinking and whether he still has the ability to serve as commander of 100,000 US troops in Afghanistan after making remarks about the president and his national security team that the general could use to justifiably fire any of his underlings if they were made about him.

“He’ll have to …

Sharron Angle Refers To The Unemployed As “Spoiled”

Harry Reid’s tea party opponent for Senate, Sharron Angle, says the unemployed are “spoiled.” (h/t Joe.My.God)

“As your US Senator, I’m not in the business of creating jobs.” (She is, however, apparently in the business of giving herself promotions in mid-statement.)

“You can make more money on unemployment than you can going down and getting one of those jobs that is an honest job,” she starts, and the facepalm-worthy statements kind of flow from there:

Spirit Airlines: What Were They Thinking?

It’s bad enough that Spirit Airlines charges for carry-on bags. They have a new ad out that is offensive to both women and those hurt by and sensitive to damage caused by the oil spill.

Spirit Air is using the new campaign to promote its sale fares to beach getaways unaffected by BP’s massive oil spill, and they’d like potential customers to know that the only oil you’ll find on those beaches is slathered on the bodies of bikini-clad women who will all stare at newcomers with come-hither eyes and pouting lips. Get it? Their oil will protect you — …

Texas GOP Platform Would Make It A Felony To Perform A Same-Sex Marriage

Texas Republicans have issued a platform that includes support for legislation that would make it a felony to issue a marriage license to same-sex couple, or to perform a same-sex marriage. The document also says:

On Tuesday’s Radio Show…

• Should Gen. McChrystal be fired? Alan talks with Col. David Hunt about the Rolling Stone profile of our commander in Afghanistan.

• Could a Republican Congress mean legal trouble for Obama? Alan asks Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA) about his plans for subpoenas if the GOP wins a House majority.

• Dr. Connie Mariano, whose new memoir is The White House Doctor, sits down with Alan to share a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the lives of our presidents.…

Thomas Sowell: Obama “Dismantling” Democracy Much Like Hitler Did

Conservative writer Thomas Sowell asks if we’re on “a slippery slope to tyranny,” and begins by invoking Hitler.

When Adolf Hitler was building up the Nazi movement in the 1920s, leading up to his taking power in the 1930s, he deliberately sought to activate people who did not normally pay much attention to politics.

Sowell mentions Hitler’s “useful idiots,” unthinking supporters that he believes are much like Obama’s base.

In our times, American democracy is being dismantled, piece by piece, before our very eyes by the current administration in Washington, and few people seem to be concerned about it.

Sowell …

Mike Huckabee Opposes Gay Marriage Because Of “The Ick Factor”

No, “The Ick Factor” isn’t a cable news show; it’s how former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee describes his opposition to gay marriage in a New Yorker profile.  And gay groups are not pleased.

“I do believe that God created male and female and intended for marriage to be the relationship of the two opposite sexes,” Huckabee said in explaining his views on gay marriage. “Male and female are biologically compatible to have a relationship. We can get into the ick factor, but the fact is two men in a relationship, two women in a relationship, biologically, that doesn’t work …

Did Top US Commander In Afghanistan Say The “Real Enemy” Are The “Wimps In The White House”?

General Stanley McChrystal, the top U.S. Commander in Afghanistan, is being called back to Washington to explain comments reported in a Rolling Stone article. Aides are quoted as mocking Vice President Joe Biden and special U.S. representative for Afghanistan and Pakistan Richard Holbrooke.  McChrystal is quoted in the article as saying he voted for Obama but never connected with him. The article also reports:

US Pays Tens Of Millions To Warlords, Insurgents And The Taliban

WaPo reports that the US is paying millions of dollars in protection money that we know is winding up in the hands of the Taliban, insurgents, and warlords in Afghanistan.

The security arrangements, part of a $2.16 billion transport contract, violate laws on the use of private contractors, as well as Defense Department regulations, and “dramatically undermine” larger U.S. objectives of curtailing corruption and strengthening effective governance in Afghanistan, a report released late Monday said.

The report describes a Defense Department that is well aware that some of the money paid to contractors winds up in the hands of warlords …

J.D. Hayworth’s Big Problem

John McCain’s nemesis in his Senate reelection bid, J.D. Hayworth, just hit a big bump in the road.

[He] appeared in a 2007 television infomercial in which he helped convince viewers that they could rake in big bucks by attending seminars that would teach them how to apply for federal grants that they wouldn’t have to pay back.

National Grants Conferences, the Florida-based company that hosted the classes and produced the informercial, has faced criticism from multiple state attorneys general and Better Business Bureaus.

In the ad, Hayworth promises:

“Now you may think that what you’ve heard is too …
