1. Pat Buchanan: Who's
Practicing McCarthyism Now?
Why are the Democrats disgracing themselves and disgusting decent
people with such tactics? Why are they desperate to kill the nomination
of Sam Alito?
The answer, in a word, is abortion. By the end of the third day of
hearings, analysts had toted up the questions. The subject that had been
brought up in more questions than any other was abortion.

Michael Reagan: Stop Talking About Reagan and Start Acting Like
Him
Republicans may like to brag that they are the party of Ronald Reagan
and are dedicated to the policies and principles for which my dad stood,
but they are acting more like members of the party of Lyndon Johnson.

David Limbaugh: Alito's Open Mind Offends Democrats
Senate Democrats, visibly frustrated over their inability to extract a
confession from Judge Samuel Alito that he would definitely vote to
overrule Roe vs. Wade, further jeopardizing a woman's "right" to
terminate her baby's life, have resorted to abject smear tactics.

GOP Puts Faith in Alito Bloggers
For the past three days, Republican staffers on Capitol Hill have had
their hands full catering to a group of VIPs who met privately with
senators, talked politics with Karl Rove and were given an exclusive
briefing on the GOP's key races in 2006. Who were these influential
people? Bloggers.

Michelle Malkin: Hillary Wraps Herself in Armor
Move over, Joan Rivers. Sen. Hillary Clinton is vying for the title of
undisputed queen of the cosmetic makeover. Having undergone a cultural
warrior collagen injection with her recent crusades against violent
video games and flag-burning, Hillary has traded in her ratty black
pantsuit for a new politicized accessory to enhance her electoral
figure: Body armor.

3. Ann Coulter: Fork Replaces
Donkey as Democratic Party Symbol
I'm not sure Sen. John Cornyn was helping with that lengthy
presentation attempting to establish the many similarities between
Samuel Alito and Sandra Day O'Connor. It doesn't matter. Liberals are
being routed. They can change the lineup, the manager, the coach, but
the losing streak never ends. By and large, Republicans aren't even
bothering to send in their A team anymore. Alito can start wearing his
iPod to the hearings. By the end of the hearings, he'll be addressing
the senators as "dude."

5. Robert Novak: Blunt Loss
Would Put Him in Tough Spot
There is much talk on the Hill about Majority Whip Roy Blunt's
(R-Mo.) future if he loses the race for Majority Leader. Many
Republicans believe that he would have to resign as Majority Whip, lest
a very uncomfortable and embarrassing situation ensue between him and
the other candidates.

nomination in 2008.

White House.

6. Jihad Watch: The Treason of
the Media
Several weeks ago I wrote about how some cartoons of Muhammad in a
Danish newspaper became an international incident. At stake is much more
than some cartoons; this matter has become a test case for the continued
viability of freedom of speech in Western countries. And now The
Economist has written about the story in a way that reveals the biases
and false assumptions so prevalent in the public discourse today.

Gizz-ette: White House Stands Firm With 'Abramoff Four'

House made it clear this morning it was standing behind the four

8. Ben Franklin's Grandson
Publishes Founding Father's Memoirs... "Finishes" the Autobiography in
Franklin's Own Words
Much has been written about the famous Founding Father -- his
celebrated "Autobiography," published after his death, is one of the
greatest autobiographies of all time. But it was incomplete. Franklin
ended his life's story in 1757, when he was only 51. During the
remaining 33 years of his life, Franklin served as America's advocate in
London, represented Pennsylvania in the Continental Congress, and was
America's wartime ambassador to France. During these pivotal years
Franklin also helped write our nation's Constitution and planned an
American Empire that would displace the British Empire.
Now, in
The Compleated Autobiography by Benjamin Franklin, we finally
get the rest of the story -- in Franklin's own words. Drawing upon
Franklin's letters, writings, and other original texts, Mark Skousen,
Franklin's eighth-generation grandson, has compiled and edited hundreds
of documents to produce the most unique autobiography in print.
The book's publisher, Regnery, has agreed to offer you a free chapter
from Skousen's book. Don't pass up this opportunity.
