NYT: ok to publish govt docs, but not climategate docs? Huh.

  Oakland, DC and some other cities are issuing ID cards that are doubling as cash cards for illegals, so that they won't be subjected to the inconvenience of carrying cash and using an ATM. Odd, the most liberal cities (unless they are flush with federal cash) are broke. Can't figure out why.
  The Big Daddies over at Powerline are wondering why the NY Times declined to publish the Climategate emails because they were illegally obtained but are publishing the wikileaks documents. Hmm. Good point.
  Again over at Powerline, there's amazement that, once again, immediately law enforcement and the nattering nabobs are clucking that we have to surround the Portland mosque to make sure there's no fear of attack from the ignorant, uninformed Christians who are so well known for beheading the infidels. 
  Reason: Obama is horrified at the idea of waterboarding 3 terrorists, but he's okay with touching YOUR genitals, all for the sake of.....safety????
  Ooooo, OUCH...the Los Angeles Times: Obama could learn from Bush. THUD!
  Wikileaks roundup here at Hot Air, concluding that Israel's the only one who looks good.
  One has to wonder how a low level like Manning could have access to such highly classified material, 14 hours a day, every day for 8 months and then using a home burned CD-RW labeled "Lady Gaga" to transport the material without question back and forth. How secure is all our data? How effective are these people in doing their jobs?
  Lame duck session....they're going to try to get rid of DADT, pass the DREAM amnesty act and today, the FDA is expected to gain even more control over our food source. 
  There's great concern about this latter bill (Senate Bill 510), as it is expected to overregulate food producers and threaten smaller industries. More job killers.
   Oh, and RIP, Leslie Nielsen.
