• Conservative’s Anti-Jihad Subway Ad Leads to New Policies: NYC Authority Can Now Ban Ads That Could ‘Incite or Provoke Violence’

  In reply to cdn1979.

  Not in this case. Public agencies and public accommodations CANNOT engage in prior restraint of free speech. If the MTA decides to defend the policy, the MTA will go to court, and the MTA will lose again; that is why they lost in the first place. This is exactly what liberals always do: demand that we conservatives and libertarians respect the law, but when I decision goes against them, ignore the case law, fight it in court, lose, make cosmetic changes and repeat the cycle.

  This is nothing more than lawlessness. The MTA has already been told what their legal obligations are under the Bill of Rights. They need to stop denying the First Amendment rights of advertisers with whom they disagree.

• UPDATED: N.C. Teacher Suspended For Telling Student He Could Be Arrested for Talking Badly About Obama

  Neither the kids nor the teacher got this right: In the first place, no credible source (and not even the WaPo) has verified that the Romney story is true. Romney denies it, as does the man’s family.

  Second: 0bama actually bullied _dozens_ of girls (he certainly would not have bullied any boys.) But the girl appearing in one of his several autobiographies is not a real girl. She is a COMPOSITE of all the many girls he bullied.

• Girl Scouts Book Refers Readers to Liberal Group Media Matters to Clear Up ‘Media Misinformation’

  In reply to 65Mustang.

  The cookie sale is, in and of itself, an exercise in anti-capitalist indoctrination. [I say this as a three-time "Cookie Dad" whose garage was perennially filled with Girl Scout Cookies.] Why? Because it convinces the girls that the system is rigged against them. The mark-up on these cookies is enormous, and only about 14% of the money goes to the local Girls Scout group. The sale prizes amount to a commission of <1% of the gross. All overages have to be absorbed by the local Troop, meaning that any waste, excess order, or "odd" boxes of cookies which don't amount to a full case have to come out of the local Troop's "profits."

  Typical liberal/prog outcomes: there's a lot of squawk about "community" and "working for the good of everyone," but in the final analysis, the Nomenklatura live off the labor of everyone lower down on the food chain.
