Doug Giles: Parents Obsessed with Texting + Ignored Kids = Hell to Pay

This past week I saw a sad sight. No, it wasn’t Eric Holder trying to convince us that he’s now a terror exposing hero instead of the perpetrator of a deadly Mexican gunrunning op that had its sights set on ultimately getting our Second Amendment rights revoked—though that was pretty sad, as that dog wag had all the subtleties of a Chaz Bono rumba.

Mike Shedlock: Occupy Wall Street Protests Go Global, Turn Violent in Rome

Alan Sears: A grisly tragedy in the culture of death

Over the course of the decades and years that have passed between the infamous Roe v. Wade decision (1973) and now, the demarcation between proponents of life and proponents of abortion has clearly proven to be a respect for life itself: an acknowledgement of the dignity of the human being, the human spirit, and the right to “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness” granted to all, regardless of age or date of conception.

Marita Noon: Change at the Top Creates Jobs at the Bottom

We can be confident that Obama didn’t do this because he one day had an epiphany and realized that the MACT regulations were too harsh. He backed down because public pressure was so intense that it became clear his support of the expensive rule threatened his re-election.
