On Monday, the White House acknowledged the administration made a mistake by no-showing in Paris (save for Jane Hartley, U.S. ambassador to France). “It’s safe to say that we should have sent someone with a higher profile to be there,” conceded White House press secretary Josh Earnest. Indeed, more than 40 world leaders cleared their schedules to march in solidarity Sunday with French President Francois Hollande, as well as the more than 3.5 million people participating in the largest-ever gathering in France’s capital city. The lasting image of the march in memory of the journalists slain by Islamist terrorists at the French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo, will be President Hollande locked arm in arm with a host of dignitaries. That included Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Mali President Ibrahim Boubacar Keita, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas and Italy’s Prime Minister Matteo Renzi. Mr. Obama should have been in that historic photo-op. Not to overshadow the other world leaders, but to recognize the role of the president of the United States as the leader of the free world. We recognize that Mr. Obama recoils from that unofficial title, which he views as an anachronistic legacy of the Cold War era. We also recognize that Mr. Obama rejects the idea of American “exceptionalism,” which was first posited by the French sociologist and political theorist Alexis de Tocqueville in his 1835 work “Democracy in America.” But just because the president doesn’t think the United States is the leader of the free world and doesn’t think America is an exceptional nation doesn’t mean that he’s right on either count. Indeed, we cannot envision a successful “war on terror” in which the United States does not play the lead role, with the accompaniment of nations, like France, that share the values that made the United States the exceptional nation that de Tocqueville first wrote about 180 years ago.

It is that aspect of the future that the Islamists hope to snuff out. There has been a calculated and growing threat to free speech in the West emanating from the Muslim world since the Ayatollah Khomeini’s fatwa against Salman Rushdie. This offensive has long relied on violence, as well as a noxious campaign of international diplomacy, to export the Muslim world’s antiblasphemy laws to the West. The diplomatic campaign has met with partial success in Europe, where “hate speech” can be prosecuted, and the Obama administration has had a shamefully accommodating attitude to it. Now, it should be met with the official contempt that it deserves. And, domestically, we should foster a robust culture of free speech that forswears the insidious logic of “your right to free speech ends where my right not to be offended begins.” We all love the cliche that the pen is mightier than the sword. But it hasn’t been true through most of human history and isn’t true in many places — especially in the Muslim world — even today. The pen is an instrument that needs constant protection and the enlivening spirit of satirists of all sorts. The cartoonists of Charlie Hebdo understood that. Does the West?

Today’s Highlight in History: On Jan. 15, 1865, during the closing months of the Civil War, the Second Battle of Fort Fisher near Wilmington, N.C., ended as Union forces captured the “Gibraltar of the South,” depriving the Confederates of their last major seaport. On this date: In 1559, England’s Queen Elizabeth I was crowned in Westminster Abbey. In 1777, the people of New Connecticut declared their independence. (The republic later became the state of Vermont.) In 1862, the U.S. Senate confirmed President Abraham Lincoln’s choice of Edwin M. Stanton to be the new Secretary of War, replacing Simon Cameron. In 1919, in Boston, a tank containing an estimated 2.3 million gallons of molasses burst, sending the dark syrup coursing through the city’s North End, killing 21 people. In 1929, civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. was born in Atlanta. In 1943, work was completed on the Pentagon, headquarters of the U.S. Department of War (now Defense). In 1947, the mutilated remains of 22-year-old Elizabeth Short, who came to be known as the “Black Dahlia,” were found in a vacant Los Angeles lot; her slaying remains unsolved. In 1967, the Green Bay Packers of the National Football League defeated the Kansas City Chiefs of the American Football League 35-10 in the first AFL-NFL World Championship Game, known retroactively as Super Bowl I. In 1973, President Richard Nixon announced the suspension of all U.S. offensive action in North Vietnam, citing progress in peace negotiations. Today’s Birthdays: Actress Margaret O’Brien is 77.

Koskinen said. Having fewer enforcement agents will cost at least $2 billion in lost tax revenue this year, he estimated. Service problems at the IRS will also make it harder for wellintentioned taxpayers to comply with the law, said Olson, who is the National Taxpayer Advocate, an independent office within the IRS. “Without adequate support, many taxpayers will be frustrated, some will make potentially costly mistakes, others will incur higher compliance costs when forced to seek information and assistance from tax professionals,” she said. “Still others,” Olson said, “will simply give up and not file.” Olson released her annual report to Congress Wednesday, less than a week before the start of tax filing season on Tuesday. In it she raises concerns about the IRS’ ability to help implement the health law. She said the agency was unable to adequately test the accuracy of some information received from health insurance exchanges. Also, delays affected the training of IRS employees.

BIDWELL, Ohio — A very bitter pill to swallow. The River Valley boys basketball team shot 52 percent after the break, but the hosts watched a seven-point halftime lead disappear Tuesday night during a heartbreaking 71-67 overtime setback to Vinton County in a Tri-Valley Conference Ohio Division matchup in Gallia County. The Raiders (5-5, 2-2 TVC Ohio) battled through three ties and seven lead changes in the first half to secure what would be their largest advantage of the game at 30-23 headed into the intermission. The Vikings (7-3, 4-1), however, answered with seven straight points in the opening 1:17 of the third to pull even at 30-all, then the guests followed with a 19-13 run to close out the canto for a 49-43 cushion headed into the finale. VCHS took its largest lead of the night at 53-44 with 5:52 left in regulation, but the Silver and Black countered with a 14-8 run to close to within a possession (61-58) with eight second remaining in the fourth. Following a timeout, RVHS went the length of the floor and worked an open shot for Tyler Twyman at the top of the key. Twyman had to doublepump his shot attempt while in the air due to an extended arm by a Vinton County player, but his desperation heave found nothing but net as the buzzer sounded — forcing overtime with a 61-all tie after four quarters of play. Both teams battled through 20 lead changes and 11 ties in the contest, with six of those lead changes and one tie coming in the extra four minutes of play. VCHS took a permanent lead at 68-67 on a basket by Jordan Albright with 1:41 remaining. RVHS had numerous chances to recapture the advantage, but the hosts went the final 1:56 without scoring a point. See VIKINGS | 10 Meigs fends off Buckeyes, 58-52 By Bryan Walters bwalters@civitasmedia.com NELSONVILLE, Ohio — A 21-8 second quarter surge ultimately provided the Meigs boys basketball team with enough breathing room to claim a 58-52 victory over host Nelsonville-York Tuesday night during a Tri-Valley Conference Ohio Divsion matchup in Athens County. The Marauders (3-7, 1-3 TVC Ohio) ended a three-game losing skid while picking up their first league win, as the guests shot 40 percent from the field while posting their largest margin of victory of the season. The Buckeyes (5-6, 1-3) — who had a twogame winning streak snapped — jumped out to an early 14-10 lead after eight minutes of play, but MHS countered with its big run of the night to secure a 31-22 advantage at the break. NYHS countered with a 15-11 third quarter run to close to within 42-37 headed into the finale, but Meigs answered with a 16-15 spurt down the stretch to wrap up the twopossession triumph. The Maroon and Gold connected on 21-of-52 field goal attempts overall, including a 4-of-9 effort from three-point range for 44 percent. The Marauders also committed just 14 turnovers in the contest, compared to 23 by the hosts.

The Rebels shot 8-of-12 (66.7 percent) from the field in the second period and expanded the lead to 33-18 at halftime.

As a team the Red and Gold marked 19 rebounds, 13 assists, 16 steals, one block and 18 turnovers.

(AP) — The interview process went fast, and so has Shannon Dawson’s move from West Virginia to Kentucky. His next important step is getting the Wildcats offense to move the ball just as quickly. Dawson was introduced Wednesday as Kentucky’s new offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach. He comes to Lexington after four seasons under Dana Holgorsen with West Virginia, including three as OC. The Mountaineers ranked ninth last season in passing (317 yards per game) and 11th in total offense. More notably, they averaged 85 snaps per contest and balanced passing and rushing plays. That’s important as Dawson takes over a Wildcats offense that improved last season but struggled with pace. He succeeds Neal Brown, who left last month to become head coach at Troy.
