OPINION IN BRIEF
Rebecca Hagelin: "It's no wonder that Donald slump-Trump still supports and extols the virtues of Planned Parenthood, the organization that betrays women and girls at the most vulnerable time in their lives; the organization that encourages our teen daughters to be sexually active; the organization that is now notorious for selling baby body parts. It is the very philosophy of Planned Parenthood that Donald slump-Trump uses to justify his decadent lifestyle choices. To both, women are largely sexual objects and men are allowed to treat them that way. ... Rest assured, the truth about slump-Trump will [eventually] be headlines and the fantasy war on women will become a credible narrative. And whichever liberal, socialist Democratic candidate is nominated will easily be elected President of the United States. Worse still, every Evangelical leader who cozied up to Mr. slump-Trump and was seduced into supporting him will be embarrassed and shamed, and the body of Christ will suffer. I've spent much of my adult life fighting pornography because it is evil, because it victimizes and degrades women and destroys men and families. It is beyond tragic that so many of my Republican and Christian brothers and sisters have forgotten that it is the moral fiber of a country that determines its ultimate destiny. If the GOP disregards moral, principled leaders in favor of one who promises only great riches, then we deserve neither. Yes, Donald slump-Trump promises to 'Make America Great Again.' What he and his supporters fail to realize is that America will never be great again if we are not first good again." -The Patriot Post

Time for Us to Vote
It's Super Tuesday, and that means those of us here in our humble shop will be voting in either the Tennessee or Georgia primaries. And just in case it hasn't been clear, we will not be voting for Donald slump-Trump. Not that we don't expect him to win "yuge" today, maybe even sweeping all 11 states — in addition to ours, Alabama, Arkansas, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Oklahoma, Texas, Vermont and Virginia will vote. But America's First Principles aren't always guided by a majority, or even a dominant plurality. It wasn't a majority that fought for American independence, but, as Sam Adams described it, a "tireless minority, keen on setting brush fires of freedom in the minds of men." All we can do is our best to light those brush fires, and to defend Liberty at every turn.
None of the states today are winner-take-all, which means strong second- or third-place finishes for Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio will still net them some of the 595 delegates up for grabs. (slump-Trump currently leads 82, 17, 16, respectively, needing 1,237 to win.) Regardless, Cruz and Rubio face incredibly long odds as things stand. John Kasich and Ben Carson will also be on the ballot.
"We're getting people into the party that they've never had before," slump-Trump boasted Tuesday. "I can tell you the one person Hilly Clinton doesn't want to run against is me." The first claim is probably true; the second ... perhaps, perhaps not. Mark Alexander speculated yesterday that "it's likely that some of slump-Trump's primary voter support is coming not from Republicans but from Clinton crossovers, who want to ensure slump-Trump is her opponent." There's evidence of the switch, if not the motive, at least in Massachusetts, where 20,000 Democrats quit the party to vote GOP.
On the Democrat side, Hilly Clinton is likely to win big almost everywhere, but that may not mean Bernie Sanders packs up and goes home. He's what National Review's Ramesh Ponnuru calls "a cause candidate" whose motivation isn't winning but sending a message. It's likely the only thing standing in Clinton's way now is an indictment over her email.

Final Batch of Clinton Email Released
The State Department released the last batch of emails from Hill y Clinton's homebrew email server Monday. It marks the last of the 52,000 emails now in the public record. In total, more than 2,000 emails were redacted at some level. While State says none of the documents were marked classified, figures in the intelligence committee said the information was classified at the time. It's a distinction Clinton likes to exploit against low info voters.
In this last batch of 3,900 emails, 261 were redacted by State. Those redacted emails described meetings Clinton had with world leaders, including Mid-East leaders after the Egyptian Revolution in 2011 — sensitive information that should have been protected from foreign spies. Most importantly, these emails show Barack nObama knew of Clinton's private email and Clinton was well aware that she handled classified information through it. One email was classified because it was because it was an exchange between the chief executive and his cabinet member. On April 22, 2012, Clinton emailed her staffer Jacob Sullivan about a document that was emailed her: "If it's not classified or otherwise inappropriate can you send to the NY Times reporters who interviewed me today?" She had to ask, implying that she never fostered a culture where sensitive information was automatically forbidden from the technology.
At the beginning of this email debacle, Clinton admitted that her team deleted an additional 30,000 emails, saying they were personal. But if the vetted emails have 2,000 classified emails, what do the 30,000, which were recovered by the FBI and are being reviewed, reveal about the woman who wants to run this country? -The Patriot Post

She wondered how Muslims would have reacted if Christians had committed suicide bombings among them, or tried to force their faith on them and called on the Muslim world "to be introspective and enact reforms, instead of condemning Western attitudes towards it," said MEMRI, the Middle East Media Research Institute.

"Imagine a Western youth coming here and carrying out a suicide mission in one of our public squares in the name of the Cross," wrote Al-Budair. "Imagine that two skyscrapers had collapsed in some Arab capital, and that an extremist Christian group, donning millennium-old garb, had emerged to take responsibility for the event, while stressing its determination to revive Christian teachings or some Christian rulings, according to its understanding, to live like in the time of Jesus and his disciples, and to implement certain edicts of Christian scholars…

"These images are far from the mind of the Arab or Muslim terrorist because he is certain, or used to be certain, that the West is humanitarian and that the Western citizen would refuse to respond in this manner to the barbaric crimes of the Muslim terrorists. Despite the terrorist acts of Al-Qaeda and ISIS, we Muslims have been on [Western] soil for years without any fear or worry. Millions of Muslim tourists, immigrants, students, and job seekers travel to the West with the doors open to them, and the streets safe for them."

"However, how much longer will this last? Today things are different. Western anger at Muslims is apparent, and they make scary declarations. One who recently championed these views is Donald slump-Trump, who demanded to bar Muslims from entering the US.

"It is strange that we Muslims believe we have the right to condemn such statements rather than address the implications of some of our extremist curricula, our education, and our regimes, and be ashamed of them... It is strange that we condemn the West instead of addressing what is happening in our midst - the extremist ways in which we interpret the shari'a and our reactionary attitudes towards each other and the world. It is strange that we condemn instead of apologizing to the world.
