Gay Softball World Series Lawsuit
This hilarious report from one of last month’s issues of National Review: A lawsuit has recently been filed over the 2008 Gay Softball World Series, in which a San Francisco team called D2 was stripped of its second-place finish for having three bisexuals on its roster. The rules allow no more than two straight... »
Living Liberally
Matt Labash has to be one of my favorite authors. When the Weekly Standard features one of his pieces, I actually set aside my OCD method of reading magazines from cover to cover and I go straight to his piece to read it first. His latest feature was no exception, and is funnier than... »
Money Puritanism
The Weekly Standard had this great line in last week’s Scrapbook: H. L. Mencken defined Puritanism (unfairly but memorably) as “the haunting fear that someone, somewhere, may be happy.” Obama Democrats are afflicted with Money Puritanism: the haunting fear that someone, somewhere, may be making a profit. »
America Rising: An Open Letter to Democrat Politicians
This is one powerful video: »
Steve Czaban on Obama
Sports talk radio host, Steve Czaban, had this hilarious nugget of insight to share about Obama and the BP oil leak crisis on his web site, czabe.com: They say success has a thousand fathers and failure is an orphan. This is true. What happened wrong in the BP oil well spill, is enough to... »
MSNBC Trashes Obama’s Address
I never thought I’d say this, but the reaction by Keith Olbermann, Chris Matthews, and Howard Fineman on MSNBC to Obama’s address is almost exactly what I was thinking, specifically: How could Obama demand an escrow account, and say that “this fund will not be controlled by BP… the account must and will be... »
Mosque at Ground Zero
Watch this outstanding commentary by a Londoner on the idea of a mosque at Ground Zero: »
Obama Votes “Present” On Current Crisis
Karl Rove had a very good piece in today’s Wall Street Journal, entitled, “Obama and the Trouble With Voting Present”. (One interesting point he notes is that Americans are viewing this as a bigger failure of government than Katrina!) He writes: When Barack Obama announced he was running for president in February 2007, Nathan... »
“White House” or “Animal House”?
James Taranto had this hilarious commentary today (under the title, “American Nero”) in his Best of the Web Today column: President Obama has been coming in for a lot of Jimmy Carter comparisons recently, but Fox News’s John Gibson, writing in the New York Post, points out one way in which the 44th president’s style... »
Ding Dong, The Witch Is Retired
Politico is reporting today that Hearst Newspapers has just announced Helen Thomas’s retirement, effective immediately! This comes hot on the heels of a very rapid fallout, following the old hag’s spewing black anti-Semitic venom at a Jewish Heritage Celebration. Already, her agent dropped her as a client, she was publicly scolded by White House Press... »
The Wicked Witch of the White House Press Corps
RabbiLive.com has posted an explosive video on YouTube showing Helen Thomas, the most famous member of the White House press corps, making unbelievably insensitive anti-Semitic remarks, telling Jews to “get the hell out of ‘Palestine’” and to “go home” to Germany and Poland. To add insult to injury, these comments were made while attending... »
Paul McCartney Turns Ugly
As Connie Hair of Human Events asks: “When did decorum go out of style?” Maybe it didn’t. Maybe that old, senile idiot Paul McCartney is just not as stylish as he thinks, because his ugly remarks really tainted what could have been a great moment for him in American history. Instead, the moment will... »
Al Franken’s Inane Logic
James Taranto had this great post this past week in his WSJ Best of the Web Today column (I guess this is what you get when you elect such a complete ass as your Senator): Al Franken is now a senator, and he makes clear just how bad a joke that is in an... »
Obama, The Thinker
James Taranto of the WSJ Best of the Web Today, had this great piece today: What exactly is the job of the president of the United States? Let’s ask the man who currently holds that position, Barack Obama: My job right now is just to make sure that everybody in the Gulf understands this is... »
Plug The Damn Hole
The Hill has reposted a very short report from the Washington Post, which generated over a thousand comments, most of them hilarious. The story is about Obama losing his cool regarding the BP oil leak and yelling “plug the damn hole!” Here are some of my favorite comments: Maybe if ODUMBO sticks his teleprompter... »

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, [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
