Reverend Amy wrote about the heroic civilian police officer Sgt. Kim Munley, barely five feet tall, in “The Fort Hood Shooting, And Its Hero.” And, below, I have added a NEW story published today about Sgt. Munley, courtesy of the Houston Chronicle which offers a truly detailed account of exactly what she did in [...]

Here are impressions from all over the ‘net, even bloggers like the yoyo Taylor Marsh and sensible shoes columnist Ruth Marcus:
“The Obama magic has faded,” Glenn Reynolds for the The New York Post:

UPDATE: A.P.: “AP: Christie Gives GOP Stunning Win In N.J.”
How are races sizing up around the country? Fox News has called Virginia for the Republicans — both Governor and Lt. Governor. And the Attorney General GOP candidate is in the lead.
Now for New Jersey. So far, they say, exit polls [...]

“[R]ecognizing the last full measure of devotion from these soldiers is the right thing for a President to do,” writes Hot Air’s Ed Morrissey. Curiously, like most pundits, Morrissey believes Obama’s trip to Dover was about a nod to the military in Afghanistan and to Gen. McChrystal.
Then Morrissey adds, “Let’s hope [...]

Ably assisted by Rabble Rouser Reverend Amy.
Obama’s BFF, or, as Vogue called her, “Barrack’s Rock,” Valerie Jarrett, is continuing the White House’s attack on Fox News. Check out this exchange with Campbell Brown (bonus points if you catch the conundrum when Jarrett is asked about MSNBC!):
More and more media are taking the White House [...]

I’m sure that all of Paulie Abeles’ fans will want to know that Paulie is battling H1N1. She would do her show if she had to crawl to her telephone. But just not tonight. Paulie will be back next Monday, we’re sure.

Is now the American Way, apparently. [See my update at the end of the article about the "way" of the Obama administration that is antithetical to America.] Note this from Kimberley Strassel’s column, “The Chicago Way,” in today’s Wall Street Journal:
They pull a knife, you pull a gun. He sends one of yours to the [...]

Fox News — especially commentator and columnist Charles Krauthammer — and a few other media outlets have pointed out that doctors cannot make ends meet if their patients are primarily on Medicare or Medicaid. A public health plan will add to the numbers of patients that physicians will not be eager to serve. [...]

A token is a token. Especially for a token leader. However, it IS the American flag. And at the least it should be straight:
Damn straight.

It is profoundly sad and incredibly infuriating that Obama’s White House does not have the decency to reply to this 72-year-old mother whose son died on September 11, 2001:

It’s well known that Senate majority leader Harry Reid is in trouble in his own state of Nevada, and that even his son (photo left) is running third in the primary contest for governor of Nevada. The Reids aren’t very popular with the hard-hearted Democratic left either. In “Harry Reid abdicates his leadership role,” Kos [...]

(bumped up from this morning)
You may have heard recently that the White House has been targeting Fox News. No doubt, in their minds, they have their reasons for it. Why that might be is a mystery to me and, critically, I find it utterly antithetical to the Constitution that protects the Fourth Estate.
One analyst I [...]
