There is a "must read" story at Varifrank about European arrogance and stupidity over the tsunami. Knocking America is far more important to them than helping people. I feel acutely sorry for the Indian guy in the story. Follow Varifrank's link to Gail Halvorsen too. (Link via E-Nough)

Congratulations to A.E. Brain. He has found some loon who thinks THE JEWS were responsible for the tsunami. It was really caused by an underwater Jewish atom bomb, you see! Given that Germany is once again a largely antisemitic country, I am sure that the theory will be widely accepted there. Sie glauben doch daß Michael Moore recht hat!

It must be all that "outsourcing": "Manufacturing activity in the United States expanded for the 19th consecutive month in December, a research group reported Monday, suggesting that the industrial sector entered the new year with solid strength behind it. The Institute for Supply Management said that its main index measuring industrial activity rose to 58.6 in December from 57.8 in November. The December performance was slightly more robust than analysts had anticipated. A reading of 50 or above in the index means the manufacturing sector is expanding, while a figure below 50 represents a contraction. The index has been 50 or above since May of 2003, according to revised figures".

This Pakistani should end his days in prison: "A "British" businessman offered to sell at least 200 ground-to-air missiles for use in a deadly plot to terrorise airline passengers across America, a court was told yesterday. Hemant Lakhani, 69, from Hendon, North London, told an undercover FBI agent that the shoulder-held missiles could be used to shoot down ten to fifteen aircraft simultaneously on the second anniversary of the World Trade Centre attacks, it is alleged.... Mr Lakhani was arrested in August 2003 at a hotel overlooking Newark airport moments after delivering a sample missile to an FBI informant. He has since been held in the Passaic County Jail, New Jersey".

A lawyer's feeding trough to go: "Republicans will try for quick action on a measure that would end asbestos lawsuits in exchange for a trust fund to compensate victims, the incoming chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee said Tuesday, despite a two-year deadlock".

The latest posting on MarxWords shows that Engels eagerly looked forward to new heights of mass slaughter. Hate-filled? You judge.

That power only, not principles, is what matters to Leftists is perfectly shown by the Kerry campaign. They put up a man whose policies seemed to be 99% the same as George Bush's even though the Left have previously disagreed violently with those policies. "Whatever it takes" is their rule.

Leftists are phonies. For most of them all that they want is to sound good. They don't care about doing good. That's why they do so much harm. They don't really care what the results of their policies are as long as they are seen as having good intentions.
