Quote of the Day

Power Line

I don't know who Doctor Zero is, but his post at the Greenroom on Eric Holder's persecution of CIA officers is excellent:


<<< Apparently Obama and his accomplices decided to distract their liberal base from the fiery Hindenburg crash of socialized medicine, by offering them a relaxing cruise on the Titanic of leftist foreign policy. As with everything else the current Administration does, it's a remarkably foolish move: dangerous for America, and self-destructive as a strategy. >>>


The post, titled "The Ethics of Ferocity," is on the moral issues relating to the interrogation of captured terrorists.

This is well put:


<<< Political strategy aside, America needs to resolve its argument about the morality of self-defense, and quickly. It's my contention that a peaceful democracy has a moral imperative to demonstrate ferocity in defense.

Because we are not an aggressive, conquering nation, we don't seek to subjugate the world and eliminate opposition. This means we will always be playing defense. One of the most dangerous delusions of the Left is the idea that we might be able to create a civilization that has no enemies. Civilization always has its enemies. >>>


Doctor Zero concludes:


<<< A few weeks ago, Eric Holder saw nothing wrong with Black Panthers using billy clubs to intimidate voters. Today, he thinks intimidating terrorists with cigars is a crime. Holder is the one who should be answering tough questions under oath. >>>
