Actually, as noted, I think this is just another way to express anti-Americanism.
[Update a few minutes later]
Speaking of which, I give you Michael Moore, educating us unwashed types on true patriotism.

I Know That This Makes Me A Racist
…but I would vote for Herman Cain over Barack Obama.
Just to be on the record. And not to imply that Mr. Cain is my first choice. I hope that this comment doesn’t just increase my racism.
But Don’t Call Them Un-American
SEIU goes full commie:
A May Day rally in Los Angeles, co-sponsored by the SEIU and various communist groups, as well as other unions, reflected yet another step in the normalization of self-identified communist and socialist ideologies in the Obama era. Not only did the SEIU help to organize the rally in conjunction with communists, they marched side-by-side with communists, while union members carried communist flags, communists carried union signs, and altogether there was no real way to tell the two apart.
And remember, the head of that organization was the most frequent visitor to the Obama White House.
They’ve Got His Number
Heh.
“Just Like Nixon Reached The Moon”
That’s how Obama got bin Laden. It is one of the ironies of history that it’s Richard Nixon’s name on the plaque at Tranquility Base, because he happened to have become president a few months before the flight. Of course, it would be a stronger analogy if bin Laden had been captured two years ago.
It’s Definitely Hitler
Richard Littlejohn tries his hand at my game:
This is the BBC Home Service. Here is the news for today, May 1st, 1945, read by Alvar Liddell. Confusion continues to surround the last moments of Adolf Hitler, who died yesterday in his bunker in Berlin.
Incredibly, the world’s most-wanted man had been living in the heart of the capital of the Third Reich, in plain sight of millions of Germans who maintain they were not supporters of the Nazis and had no knowledge of the Fuhrer’s crimes again humanity.
It’s not bad, but the biggest problem with it is that we actually had no knowledge of Hitler’s fate that early. I don’t think that the west discovered what had happened to him until November, and in the interim there were many rumors that he was alive and regrouping with other diehards in some last bastions in Germany (this also helped feed the Werwolf movement). My version has the history much more accurately.
America’s Persistence
Thoughts from Austin Bay. Also, the kids are all right.
What Does He Know?
Jeff Bezos is investing in a fusion company (though as commenters there note, the technical explanation is pretty confusing). Maybe he wants to use it to power his spaceships.
Is This The Death Of Journalism?
Well, I’d like to think so, but on the evidence, if it is, it’s got more lives than a cat. On the other hand, it doesn’t bode well for the future of CNN.
Why Does Eric Holder Still Have His Job?
The gun running scandal in Mexico just gets worse and worse. Of course, I’m amazed that he was confirmed in the first place. The Republicans shouldn’t have rolled over the way they did, even if they didn’t have the votes.
[Late morning update]
Here’s more from Michelle Malkin.
Also, what did he know, and when did he know it? Just how much damage could this do to the administration?
