Wolf Lets Hillary Walk Away From Driver's Licenses
Rush Limbaugh has often indicated that he has no beef with Wolf Blizter. And I must say that I've generally found Blitzer to be a straight shooter who has rarely-if-ever provided grist for my NewsBusting mill. All of which makes that much more perplexing Blitzer's bail-out at arguably the key moment last night's debate. The CNN anchor's failure to follow up on Hillary's monosyllabic answer on…

MSNBC's Shuster: Tancredo a Border-Control 'Fanatic
In the most florid criticism I can recall a network "correspondent" leveling at a major party presidential candidate, MSNBC's David Shuster has branded Rep. Tom Tancredo (R-Colo.) a border-control "fanatic." The editorializing came in the course of Shuster's report during today's 5 PM ET "Hardball," which included an update on the GOP primary.DAVID SHUSTER: No television commercial in Iowa is…
KMYL Radio: Calling Rapist Hispanic Is 'Racist
If a person of Hispanic origin rapes a woman and, in an attempt to catch this violent criminal, police publish a description identifying the suspect's general racial makeup, is that a "racist" thing to do? Apparently the folks at KMYL (1190 AM) in the metro Phoenix, Arizona area think it is. It appears that we cannot even discuss the basic appearance of a wanted criminal now without being "racist…
FNW: MSM Backs Bhutto; Willie Horton Redux
Should I be worried? I just agreed with something Neal Gabler said. On yesterday's Fox News Watch, the liberal media critic opined that the MSM is backing Benazir Bhutto over Pervez Musharraf in the current Pakistan crisis -- and not for the loftiest of motives.And could Hillary fall prey to the scenario that brought down Michael Dukakis? View video here.
Will Edwards Ad Waltz Hillary Out -- And Obama In
Chris Matthews can't get enough of John Edwards' brutal-but-funny anti-Hillary ad, playing it twice during this evening's "Hardball." Set to the Blue Danube Waltz and based on clips from last week's debate, the theme is Hillary's double-talk on Iraq, Social Security and immigration [her triple-toe loop on driver's licenses for illegal immigrants].But in the three-cushion game that is presidential…
Tulsa, OK TV 8: Immigrants 'Afraid' in The USA
Apparently, TV 8 (KTUL) in Tulsa, Oklahoma, wants us to know that illegal immigrants are all cowering in fear or streaming out of the USA today because of the crackdown on illegal immigration in the Sooner state. The Tulsa TV folks are trying to make it seem as if there is a climate of fear for illeglas even as our government is bending over backwards to comfort illegal immigrants not to mention…
Eight 9-11 Hijackers Were Registered to Vote: Will MSM 'Drive' Story
The fact has been out there for some time, but never garnered much media attention. Now, in the context of the current debate over the granting of driver's licenses to illegal immigrants, will there be renewed focus on this chilling reality? Could this be the factoid that changes a presidential election? As John Fund wrote in his Wall Street Journal column today and discussed during his "…
Shuster: Hillary's 'Slippery' Rep
"Bill Clinton: caution, slippery when wet." -- George H.W. Bush, 1992 RNC convention. "The Clintons have a reputation of being slippery and hard to pin down. Last night Clinton underscored that on the issue of whether illegal immigrants should have drivers licenses." -- David Shuster, "Hardball," 10-31-07Was that really David Shuster? Or could Shuster, like opera singer Enrico Pallazzo in "…
Lou Dobbs Calls Eliot Spitzer 'Arrogant Abuser of Office
Those that wisely shun CNN for its obvious liberal leanings have been missing an epic on-air battle between anti-illegal immigration anchor Lou Dobbs and New York's Gov. Eliot Spitzer (D). In case you also eschew news from the Empire State, Spitzer wants to give all illegal immigrants in New York driver's licenses, which so offends Dobbs that he said on "Lou Dobbs Tonight" Monday evening: "I…
Cleveland Imam Ahmed Alzaree's Resignation: Headline Writer at AP Hits
Cleveland Plain Dealer religion reporter David Briggs used this blog post title yesterday when he did his initial report on Ahmed Alzaree's resignation: New Cleveland imam quits before he starts The title of the Plain Dealer Metro Section post by Briggs, which I believe was also used in the print edition: New Islamic Center imam Ahmed Alzaree resigns The Associated Press wrote up the story…
