Tonight Laura Ingraham was sitting in for Bill, and the impact segment was about Dutch politician Geert Wilders making a 10-minute anti-Koran film. Geert Wilders is the chairman of the Freedom Party. As usual, the practitioners of the so-called “religion of peace” are warning the Dutch government not to show this or there with be… well…Allah to pay. Ayaan Hirsi Ali, author of the best-seller “Infidel,” was on to talk with Laura about the current controversy.

Here’s a portion of Geert Wilder’s thoughts on the Koran:

The core of the problem is fascistic Islam, the sick ideology of Allah and Mohammed as it is set out in the Islamic Mein Kampf: the Koran. The texts in the Koran leave little to the imagination.

In various Sura’s Muslims are called upon to oppress, persecute, or kill Jews, Christians and others, believers and non –believers and to beat women and to rape and to use violence to implement a worldwide Islamist state. Numerous other Sura’s are used by Muslims to incite to death and destruction.

Ban that wretched book like Mein Kampf is banned!

You can watch Laura and Ayaan here.

I’m not going to give this away…it is too priceless. His show today was about Swingers, or “The Lifestyle,” and his first interview was with a couple who has been in the Lifestyle for 12 years. Here’s the money shot.

Going on Dr. Phil to discuss your personal life? Probably thousands of dollars. Having Dr. Phil ask you if you voted for Monica’s ex-boyfriend? Priceless.

FINALLY, at tonight’s Republican debate in Boca Raton, FL, someone (McCain) challenged Gov. Mike Huckabee on the FairTax. And even better than than, Tim Russert followed up with the 30% consumption tax fallacy that is always the primary anti-FairTax argument.

The FairTax is also being touted by noted professors of economics everywhere. Folks, if you have any doubts about the FairTax, please order the upcoming book, “The Fair Tax: The Truth - Answering the Critics” by GA Congressman John Linder and Neal Boortz. Or, if you don’t have the time nor desire to do that, just read the FAQs here.

Watch Huckabee explain his support of the FairTax here.

I’ve blogged about Canadian Ezra Levant before, as have many others, about his fight with the Alberta Human Rights Commission. You see, when Ezra worked for the Canadian publication, the Western Standard, Ezra decided it was his human right to publish the Danish Mohammed cartoons. Well, that wasn’t received well by one Syed Soharwardy, and so he filed a complaint with the AHRC.

Ezra had to go before the AHRC and plead his case, in which he practically BEGGED them to find against his favor so that this case could be heard by a legitimate court, and now his story is being told around the world. Tonight he was on Glenn Beck to talk about his story, It’s a must-watch for every freedom-loving infidel in the world. First, check out Ezra’s YouTube page here for all segments of his appearance before the AHRC. It’s a 90-minute total view, but very much worth it.

You can view his Glenn Beck appearance here.

You know folks, Bill Clinton was here in Atlanta today, along with others like Huckabee and Obama, to celebrate MLK day at Ebenezer Baptist Church. And as one of the King relatives spoke, he conveyed to the congregation (and those of us who were watching on TV) that in the recent past, the IRS had “reminded” them that having any politician speak there during a political race would not be a good idea on the King Center’s part. However, seeing as how Bill Clinton is only the spouse of a political candidate, it was mighty fine then that he could speak. And speak he did. Yes, he did acknowledge Mike Huckabee, but he also acknowledged the accomplishments of his entire life, political and non-political, to the entire congregation. Reading between the lines, I distinctly heard “if you elect my wife, I will help her generate new jobs just like I did.” His appearance and speech was about as a-political as Huckabee is an atheist.

So, lest we forget Hillary’s recent faux pas about MLK, my favorite political cartoonist Michael Ramirez is kind enough to remind us.

I would post video of the ceremony here, but watching it real-time live was enough torture for me for one day. Oh, yeah, I almost forgot. One of the next speakers at the event was an African-American female bishop who decided it was necessary to somehow weave in Weapons of Mass Destruction in her speech about “freedom.” A-political my ass!

Noel Sheppard has the story at Newsbusters. Last night on Real Time, Trace Adkins, John Fund, DL Hughley and some left-wing loon discuss the validity of the 10 Commandments and religion in general. From Noel’s piece, he has a partial transcript:

TRACE ADKINS, COUNTRY SINGER: There’s two reasons why I go with the God thing, because, number one…

MAHER: (Laughing, grabs Adkins’ arm).

ADKINS: (To Maher) Shut up!

MAHER: You go with the God thing?

FUND: Listen to him.

MAHER: I know, I always listen to him.

ADKINS: Number one, just in case!

MAHER: (Laughing) Now that’s honest, right.

ADKINS: And number two, my momma may be watching. Just as D.L. [Hughley, other panelist] was saying, too, because his momma’s watching. (To Maher) Is your momma watching?

MAHER: She passed away.

ADKINS: See, she’s watching, you better shut up!

There were a couple of points in the whole panel discussion, besides this segment, where I thought Trace Adkins was going to jump the desk and choke the ever-livin’ shit out of Mr. Savage. I’m just surprised that Maher actually allowed TWO conservatives on the panel as opposed to how it’s usually stacked 4 to 1.

Last night was a very tragic night for everyone in law enforcement. DeKalb Co. (GA) PD officers Ricky Bryant, Jr. 26, and Eric Barker 33, were working an off-duty job at a high-crime apartment complex in the county. They were in their POVs, but they were in uniform. DKPD Chief Bolton is being mum about the investigation, but all accounts indicate both officers were ambushed and shot in the head.

“They had no chance,” quoting Chief Bolton. From Officer.com:

Patreka Anderson, a resident of the complex, said she was awakened by the gunshots but did not think anything of it because the neighborhood around the Glenwood Gardens apartment complex is a high-crime area with a lot of drug activity and prostitution.

“We always hear shooting,” she said. “I didn’t think that was any big deal.”

Teofil Taut, who said he has owned the 176-unit complex for about two years and lives in one of the buildings, said he hired police as part-time security officers in December to keep homeless people from breaking into the apartments.

Another resident, nurse’s assistant LaShawn Corbin, said she is considering moving, even if it means paying more for an apartment.

“We don’t expect the people who try to protect us to be hurt so seriously,” she said. Corbin said she would fear leaving her children there “because the person who did it has no conscience for human life.”

No conscience for a human life. Very well said. It takes hideously inhumane cowards to ambush cops to achieve whatever purposes they may have. I have no sympathy for these bastards, and I hope they want to go out “in a blaze of glory.” The glory will not go to you, you pussies. You deserve nothing but immediate death. You owe that to the two widows and eight children you’ve left fatherless. Punk-ass bitches. That’s what you are.

(Sorry for being so raw, but this hurts deeply.)

The earliest beliefs were that there were two suspects, but now there’s a possibility that there were up to 4. The reward as of this writing is at $55,000, but the Chief (and other LEOs) know that won’t help. Folks who live in projects like this very rarely “talk” about anything to which they might be a witness. But as Chief Bolton said, as he encouraged folks to come forward, stating that “today you are not my brother.” Chief knows who his brothers are, and they are the ones wearing blue.

Hey, Step… I know Ricky and Eric are already with you. Please give them the grand tour of heaven, and welcome them into the guard. Love you and miss you, brother, but you’ve got some more backup now when you need it. I miss you, Dennis Stepnowski… I really do, but I’m glad you’re there to be their welcoming committee at the gates of heaven.

Rest in peace, Officers Bryant and Barker. Rest in peace.

I’ve got local news reaction here, here and here.

I previously wrote about Ezra Levant and his hearing with the Alberta (Canada) Human Rights Commission after offending a radical Muslim “scholar,” Syed Soharwardy, after he published the dastardly Danish Muslim cartoons in the magazine for which he used to work, the Western Standard.

In this clip, Ezra makes his closing argument after the 90-minute hearing, practically begging the Commission to refer his case to the higher authority for “punishment.” Oh what a wondrous spectacle that would be!
