Video: William A. Rusher, RIP
Conversations host Harry Kreisler speaks with William A. Rusher, former publisher of the “National Review”
William A. Rusher, the long-time publisher of National Review has passed away.
I wrote this a few years ago:Flap remembers back in the 80’s when Rusher was the Publisher of the National Review and wrote a letter to Rusher about his book, The Rise of the Right. To Flap’s surprise I received a handwritten note in reply.
I understand he always handled his own correspondence.
- How to Win Arguments
- The Making of the New Majority Party
- The Rise of the Right,
- The Ambiguous Legacy of the Enlightenment
- Short Course on South Africa
An archive of his Townhall columns is here and the Claremont Institute here.
The conservative movement and I mourn his passing.

Video: Sarah Palin Delivers Blistering Speech to Wisconsin Tea Party
Palin Wows Wisconsin Tea Partiers With Blistering Speech; To Obama: ‘You Ignored Us in 2010, You Cannot Ignore Us in 2012’ from Breitbart on Vimeo.
Sarah Palin does deliver an excellent speech and this will be her role in the 2012 Presidential season. Palin’s negatives in the polls, especially with independents is too high for 2012 as a candidate, so she will be the political surrogate par excellant.
I suspect she has a series of speeches blasting President Obama already prepared and is waiting for the right time to deliver them.
Stay tuned….

- President Obama Issues “Signing Statement” Indicating He Won’t Abide by Provision in Budget Bill – Political Punch – President Obama Issues “Signing Statement” Indicating He Won’t Abide by Provision in Budget Bill
- President Obama Issues “Signing Statement” Indicating He Won’t Abide by Provision in Budget Bill – In a statement issued Friday night, President Obama took issue with some provisions in the budget bill – and in one case simply says he will not abide by it.
Last week the White House and congressional Democrats and Republicans were involved in intense negotiations over not only the size of the budget for the remainder of the FY2011 budget, and spending cuts within that budget, but also several GOP “riders,” or policy provisions attached to the bill.
One rider – Section 2262 — de-funds certain White House adviser positions – or “czars.” The president in his signing statement declares that he will not abide by it.
“The President has well-established authority to supervise and oversee the executive branch, and to obtain advice in furtherance of this supervisory authority,” he wrote. “The President also has the prerogative to obtain advice that will assist him in carrying out his constitutional responsibilities, and do so not only from executive branch officials and employees outside the White House, but also from advisers within it. Legislative efforts that significantly impede the President's ability to exercise his supervisory and coordinating authorities or to obtain the views of the appropriate senior advisers violate the separation of powers by undermining the President's ability to exercise his constitutional responsibilities and take care that the laws be faithfully executed.”
Therefore, the president wrote, “the executive branch will construe section 2262 not to abrogate these Presidential prerogatives.”
In other words: we know what you wanted that provision to do, but we don’t think it’s constitutional, so we will interpret it differently than the way you meant it.
During his presidential campaign, then-Senator Obama was quite critical of the Bush administration’s uses of signing statements telling the Boston Globe in 2007 that the “problem” with the Bush administration “is that it has attached signing statements to legislation in an effort to change the meaning of the legislation, to avoid enforcing certain provisions of the legislation that the President does not like, and to raise implausible or dubious constitutional objections to the legislation.”
Then-Sen. Obama said he would “not use signing statements to nullify or undermine congressional instructions as enacted into law.”
The president said that no one "doubts that it is appropriate to use signing statements to protect a president's constitutional prerogatives; unfortunately, the Bush Administration has gone much further than that."

Shocking……
Something the GOP should keep in mind during the next two budget fights. Obviously, they didn't this time…..
