U.S. Robbed of Winning Goal in World Cup Soccer Game vs. Slovenia

Everybody knows soccer is for fags. Still, this doesn’t give anti-American referees the right to screw us over: The United States staged the greatest rally in its World Cup history Thursday, overcoming a two-goal halftime deficit to record a 2-2 draw with Slovenia at Ellis Park. Michael Bradley’s goal in the 82nd minute tied the […]

Obama to Europe: ‘Double-Dip,’ Anyone?

The headline is “Obama Urges Europe Not to Drop Stimulus Measures Yet,” but to understand what the president is actually trying to say, you have to read this New York Times story very carefully: President Obama signaled on Friday that countries in Europe should not withdraw their extraordinary spending programs too quickly. In a public […]

Soccer May Be Gay, But
At Least It’s Not Canadian

I don’t think Allahpundit is Canadian, but he does have a suspiciously extensive knowledge of Broadway show tunes hockey. IYKWIMAITYD. The other day, I put up a mocking headline: World Cup Overkill: Associated Press Writes 1,068 Words About 1-1 Tie And proceeded to mock soccer, generally, which prompted commenter “gg” (whose IP address is in […]

World Cup Overkill: Associated Press Writes 1,068 Words About 1-1 Tie

There ought to be some kind of special Pulitzer for this: Clint Dempsey became only the second American to score in two World Cups, getting the tying goal in the 40th minute on a blunder by goalkeeper Robert Green. Howard made six saves, withstanding a second-half barrage by Wayne Rooney and his celebrated teammates. . . […]

‘Marco Rubio Gets It’ on Israel

That’s from Jennifer Rubin at Commentary, who calls the Florida Republican Senate candidate’s speech yesterday “frankly the best speech on Israel since George W. Bush went to the Knesset.” The text of the speech is online and includes some important points: We are in the midst of an all out, concerted global effort to delegitimize […]

Helen Thomas Retires

Dateline, Treblinka: Veteran White House reporter Helen Thomas announced Monday that she is retiring, effective immediately, in the wake of a controversy over her comments on Israel, according to a report from her employer, Hearst News Service. Thomas told a rabbi at a White House event last week that Jews should “get the hell out […]

Obama vs. Israel

Professor William Jacobson asks a provocative question: Can Obama survive a second Obama term? Read the whole thing. One of the points I considered discussing in the “Rachel Corrie Death Cult” post was how, by showing “solidarity” with Hamas, liberals are guaranteeing a continuation of the horrific circumstances which are their primary grievance against Israel. […]

The Holy Church of St. Pancake
The International Solidarity Movement and the Rachel Corrie Death Cult

Back in 2003, when Charles Johnson was still able to maintain some semblance of sanity, a commenter at Little Green Footballs — no doubt long since banished — responded to the death of Rachel Corrie by dubbing her “St. Pancake.” A jest both crude and arguably cruel, yet in two words, that LGF commenter captured a reality that has endured, […]
