March 5, 2010I couldn’t help but seethe as I read a recent “news alert” from Reuters AlertNet, loaded with an unbelievable amount of spin and bias. The story involves Muslims hurling rocks at Jews from above, as the Jews pray below harmlessly at the Western Wall.

- The Epitome of Hypocrisy
February 24, 2010Naked Emperor News has compiled what has to be one of the most hearty meals of crow that the Dems are going to have to eat right now, as they all continue to babble on about using the “nuclear option” to ram their corpulent health care obscenity through Congress.

February 21, 2010About two weeks ago, Michael Oren, the Israeli ambassador to the United States came to the University of California at Irvine to speak, by invitation of the university’s faculty.

Obama’s Racket
James Taranto wrote such a great piece in today’s Best of the Web Today, that I simply have to include the entire section that I found so appealing here: “Audiences Hate Modern Classical Music Because Their Brains Cannot Cope”: an arresting headline from London’s Sunday Telegraph.

The town’s Select Board voted 2-1 Monday night to endorse a... »

Democrats On The Receiving End Of Their Own Tactics
For the duration of the Bush years (or a good majority of them), the left had practically turned character assassination into an art form. Countless political cartoons depicting Bush as Hitler, countless citations of countless forms of demonization of Cheney, Gingrich, Limbaugh, and other Republican leaders. This ploy has served the left well; cut off... »
