Joseph Harris: Things you can't say in America
"Men and women are different.
Homosexuals are unnatural.
Islam is not a religion of peace, but produces terrorists.
Jesus (spoken while leading in a public prayer)
Mothers should stay at home and make motherhood their career.
The Republican Party has betrayed conservatives.
Illegal aliens (instead of undocumented immigrants)
The South was right (States' rights trump federal legislation).
Palestinian gunmen are murdering terrorists, not freedom fighters.
Home-educated students excel above traditional students.
Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton are racists.
The Constitution is not a living document."
John Stossel: We pay them to lie to us
"The key to magic is misdirection, fooling the audience into looking in the wrong direction."

Wake Up America: Chris Matthews: 'Is Obama Sending Carteresque Signals?'
Chris Matthews:
"Welcome back. The word these days is optics, visuals, signals. In the Carter presidency, the optics were not exactly robust, and Ronald Reagan rode that to a big victory in 1980. Is the Obama White House sending some Carteresque signals these days? Some see that in the deep bow to the Emperor of Japan, an unforced error say critics. Then there was, there was what happened in China: Obama got nothing in the way of concessions over there in spite of playing the polite visitor. And his effort to speak directly to the Chinese was jammed by the government. Third, that decision to try the terrorists up in that federal court in New York City. Again, nothing that had to be done, and critics say it shows that Obama, his team doesn't understand this is a war we're in. David, that's the question. These optics are everything in a president. Carter used to carry that garment bag over his shoulder. This president is he making mistakes like in China like in Japan?"
