Bill O’Reilly Riles Up The View
Bill O’Reilly made an appearance on The View today and drove the washed-up, has-been Whoopi Goldberg and Joy “Who?” Behar off the set, with them ranting and sputtering the whole way out.

Crack-Induced Shooting
TheSmokingGun.com reports on a crime where a man got into an argument with two teenagers over their stupid habit of wearing their pants hanging down below their asses, and ended up shooting one of them in the ass.

As if I don’t have enough things to worry about in today’s crazy world, I now apparently have to worry during my commute about who’s driving my train.

Another Reason Why Smoking Is Bad For You
FoxNews is reporting that several consumers recently noticed charges on their credit cards of about $23 quadrillion, some of them for buying a mere pack of cigarettes!

Incredible Israeli Innovations
UPI is reporting that Israel is developing freeze-dried blood powder, whereby soldiers can carry pouches of their own freeze-dried blood that can be used for emergency medical treatment by just adding water!

CNBC Breaking News: Obama Swats A Fly!
In a 30-second video clip that must be seen to be believed, Obama swats a fly, much to the adoration and praise of his CNBC hosts. (There’s even the close-up shot of the dead fly on the ground after having been felled by the Might Great One, Obama.) (Hat tip to Mary Katharine Ham... »

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 [...]
