- Rolling Stone’s Bizarre Cheap Shot At Sarah Palin
March 28, 2011
I previously posted about the latest rash of scandalous photos coming out of Afghanistan showing U.S. military atrocities under Obama’s command, and wondering if the media would pick up on it the way they did when it was Bush’s army… Well, here’s a twist I wasn’t expecting: yes, one of the U.S. media, Rolling Stone, [...] - More Disgustingly Overt Reuters Bias
March 24, 2011
Jeffrey Goldberg, a correspondent for the Atlantic, cast a spotlight on yet another disgustingly overt example of pure bias in the mainstream media, particularly at the anti-Semitic Reuters newswire. He points to a Reuters news item which contains the following despicable sentences: Police said it was a “terrorist attack” — Israel’s term for a Palestinian [...] - Bloomberg’s “Crash Tax”
March 24, 2011While reading last month’s issue of AAA’s Car & Travel magazine, I was surprised to discover that Bloomberg (with the FDNY behind him) is now trying to push a “crash tax” on anyone involved in a car accident, with such taxes ranging from $365 up to $490, depending on the severity of the crash. The [...]
- Obama’s Abu Ghraib
March 21, 2011The latest news out of Afghanistan is going to be really interesting to follow, if only to see how the media handles it. According to the Guardian and other (so far relatively few) sources, pictures have now made their way out of Afghanistan (courtesy of Germany’s Der Spiegel) showing brutal and psychopathic activities by U.S. [...]
- Sympathy For Israel? Time To Restore “Balance”!
March 16, 2011
In the [sparse] reporting of the Palestinians’ massacre of the Fogel family, several newspapers stand out with their distorted sense of “balance”, i.e., where they feel overwhelmingly uncomfortable describing the barbarity of the Palestinians without at least taking a swipe or two at the Israelis, no matter how patently irrelevant or disgustingly disrespectful it comes [...]

NY Times: All The News That’s Fit To Twist
In light of some recent (although hardly surprising) reporting by the NY Times, my father had these particularly insightful comments to make, ending with a pair of questions that I challenge any honest person to answer: According to the “paper of record”, Israel’s killing of terrorists responsible for killing Israeli civilians (including children) ignited... »
Warren Buffet, The New Tax Man With New Math
With all this talk lately of Warren Buffet calling for “millionaires” to pay higher taxes (somehow that term includes not only the 237,000 people who actually DO make over a million dollars, but also another 3.92 million people who make more than $200K, calling the actual sneakily-used term severely into question), we should all... »
Some Common Sense
Here’s a great clip of “some common sense” from your average taxpayer: »
Huma May Have Bad Taste in Men, But She’s Not Crazy
In the midst of all this speculation regarding Anthony Weiner’s potential resignation decision and his wife’s role in it, the WSJ’s James Taranto is the only commentator who actually makes sense by pointing out the absurdity of expecting his wife to “talk him into resigning”. He writes: House Democrats are anxious to be rid... »
The Waterboarding Debate Continues
James Taranto posted this great piece in his Best of the Web Today column on the WSJ site: Administration officials and sympathizers have continued to fire back against the argument that the Osama bin Laden raid vindicates the Bush administration’s use of enhanced interrogation techniques, including waterboarding. As we noted Friday, the counterarguments have... »
Civil Libertarian Hypocrites
Marilyn Penn, blogging at Political Mavens, had this great piece last week: When it comes to provocateurs who are anti-American, the bastions of liberalism march in lockstep to defend whatever freedom is at stake. Refusing to say the pledge of allegiance? Freedom of speech. Nazi march through a community of survivors? Same and warum nicht?... »

Obama Locked Out Of White House
Here’s a little comic relief: President Obama ended up getting locked out of the White House when he returned unexpectedly from a trip. (Now if only we could make it a permanent thing…) The video on Youtube generated some great comments: the ghost of lincoln was tired of obama’s crap. Classic! Come 2013, the... »
Schumer’s Three Branches of Government
It’s always a nice surprise to find out that a Senator with twelve years under his belt in the Senate (and in Congress since 1981!) actually doesn’t even know what the three branches of government are in this country. Is he smarter than a fifth grader? Apparently not. But, then, most of us already... »
Liberals Jump on Birther Bandwagon
James Taranto of the WSJ’s Best of the Web Today is reporting on three new partisan commentators taking up the cause for the release of Obama’s archival birth certificate. He writes: Three partisan commentators are calling on the state of Hawaii to release President Obama’s archival birth certificate, Mediaite reports. What makes this worthy... »
Witch’s Self-Destruction Continues
If Helen Thomas has any family members who care at all about her, now is the time for them to step in and get her away from any public appearances. It seems that she can’t stop running her mouth about the evil Jews who secretly run the world. It seems that the Elders of... »
Kissinger: Traitorous Scum
That’s exactly what I think of Henry Kissinger: traitorous scum. This is a person who would sell his people down the river apparently just to kiss Nixon’s ass. He would have been the perfect sonderkommando in Hitler’s concentration camps. Arutz 7 reports on newly released tapes from the Nixon library: White House adviser and... »
Obama In Fantasyland
As if Obama’s response to this year’s election blowout wasn’t enough proof that he’s completely out of touch with reality, the Weekly Standard’s William Kristol serves up the icing on the cake, with Obama at a press conference following his global spanking in South Korea: At his November 12 press conference in Seoul, President... »
Left-Wing Crazies
Listen to the mainstream media long enough and you’ll take it for granted that the right-wing fringe is replete with dangerous lunatics and psychos—the counterpart of which you’ll almost never hear about on the left. The Weekly Standard’s Scrapbook cleared up that serious misconception, pointing out how it’s the complete opposite that is closer... »
TSA Horror Stories Still Piling Up
I find it shocking how there can be complaint after complaint of the TSA—with several new stories surfacing daily—and, yet, still nothing is being done about this outrage. The media is reporting on this daily, the news sites and blogs are blazing with these stories, and the government and civil liberties organizations are receiving... »
