I was just half-watching Fox News (Shep Smith is annoying, but he can be
entertaining on occasion), and they tossed out a little factoid that left me
positively gobsmacked. As a bit of background on the federal debt ceiling
situation, they noted that during the month of June, the government issued
checks (or equivalents) for Medicare, Social Security, active duty and
retired military, Disability/SSI, and Food Stamps. 211,800,000 checks.

Republicans seem positively gleeful these days about their prospects headed
into 2012, buoyed by a new Gallup Poll showing a handful of Republican
presidential hopefuls within striking distance of President Barack Obama as
well as some recent predictions that the GOP will hold the House and could
take the Senate.
Yet despite all the apparent momentum, the three national party committees

(CNSNews.com) – Textbooks used in Pakistani public schools and religious
madrassas promote intolerant views of non-Muslim minorities, extol jihad,
and portray non-Muslims not at citizens with rights but as infidels, pagans,
apostates or subservient dhimmis, according to an unprecedented new study.
Interviews with teachers and students, carried out as part of the

The Irish government has outlined .2bn of spending cuts in an austerity
budget that aims to cut the country’s sky high deficit and put it back on a
path to economic recovery.
More than half of the expenditure reductions – .15bn – will be made up
through cuts to politically sensitive social welfare, health and education
budgets. A further 50m is being cut from capital expenditure, resulting in
the shelving of a host of flagship infrastructure projects.

Multiculturalism, far from creating harmony between cultures, creates
unnecessary tensions within nations. Most men have an allegiance to some
group beyond their family-- a tribe, region, nation, ethnic, race,

The multicultural state removes national identity as a basis of commonality
because there is no cohesive view of what that means. If any language,
