Priorities

Nice to see our Commander-in-Chief has his priorities straight. Instapundit took notice of something on Drudge Report earlier today:
MATT DRUDGE DEMONSTRATES THE ART OF DRUDGETAPOSITION:
Says a lot, doesn't it?

Get a cup of coffee, and read...

I send out a lot of links to great articles on my twitter account, and don't always remember to post them here. I'm going to try and collect them from my tweets and post them in groups here as "morning coffee reading" every now and then.

Anyway, here's some for today. Hope you enjoy:

An excellent, well-reasoned, and thoroughly researched article by Dan McLaughlin on some of the ridiculously illogical arguments being tossed around by the left since the news broke about bin Laden becoming shark food:
RedState | Inconvenient Facts About The Takedown of Osama bin Laden
Another RedState article, this one by Melissa Clouthier, addressing liberal hypocrisy with her usual wickedly sharp wit:
RedState | Osama Bin Laden's Death: Proving Liberals Don't Really Mean Their Rhetoric
Last RedState article for now. As usual, Erick Erickson is saying what needs to be said. This time, he addresses the unnecessary panic attack that Republicans are having about our 2012 presidential candidates:
RedState | The Winter of Republican Discontent
Apparently, Obama took 16 hours to make a decision about the raid to take out Osama bin Laden (as Dodd Harris put it, "15 hours, 59 minutes, and 59 seconds too long"):
The Daily Mail | Obama took SIXTEEN HOURS to make up his mind about Bin Laden mission
A touching story from the Sarasota schoolchildren who were with President Bush on the morning of September 11, 2001:
Time.com | The Interrupted Reading: The Kids with George Bush on 9/11
A tongue-in-cheek article about how very, very awesome Navy SEALs are:
Guns.com | Behind the Balaclava: Getting to know Seal Team Six
Senator Bill Nelson, Florida's sole remaining Democrat in a statewide office, really jammed his foot in his mouth on Monday with a stupid and offensive comment trying to tie Osama bin Laden to one of the Florida Legislature's election bills (yes, really). Here's @diggrbiii's take:
The Right Sphere | Senator Bill Nelson (D-FL): Idiot
OK, let me know if you like lists of links like this and I might keep doing it. I'm going to go get some coffee now. Have a great morning, y'all.

God Bless Our Troops...And Their Pets

Your feel-good moment of the day...video of a soldier returning home from Afghanistan to a very enthusiastic greeting from his pet dog, Gracie...



YouTube | ltschmidt02 | Seeing my dog the day I got back from Afghanistan

As the soldier notes in the comments on his YouTube page, he and his wife adopted Gracie from his local animal shelter. As the owner of a rescue pet myself, I can tell you he is absolutely right about how much love you can get from shelter animals. They know you are rescuing them. :)

Please consider supporting the Orlando Humane Society and adopting your next pet from a shelter.

God Bless Our Troops, and everyone who supports them at home, both human and animal.
