David Limbaugh Column: Obama Should Help America Heal

It's difficult to express opinions on race that don't conform to the politically correct narrative, because race baiters are always lying in wait to denounce as a bigot anyone who dissents from their…
ABC's Quinones Fishes For Racist New Yorkers, Catches Nothing
The July 19 broadcast of ABC’s “What Would You Do?” at first seemed to be devoid of any racial themes that usually plague the overly-contrived ABC "News" show.

David Brooks: Obama's Address on Race 'Was a Symphony
As NewsBusters has been reporting, the Obama-loving media's gushing and fawning over the President's address Friday concerning race and the George Zimmerman verdict has been nothing less than sick-making.

Mike Allen's Mealy-Mouthed Defense Of Obama's Trayvon Martin Remarks
Imagine that FDR, in his first inaugural, instead of rallying Americans with the notion that "the only thing we have to fear is fear itself," had stoked the nation's unease by harping on how bad the Depression was.

For that…
