Coulter Column: To Avoid Looking Like a Criminal, Don't Commit a Crime
Black liberals keep bemoaning the danger to their own teenage sons after the "not guilty" verdict in George Zimmerman's murder trial.

Liberal Luxury: MSNBC to Broadcast from Pricey Essence Festival, Still
The liberal chorus at MSNBC has made it a relentless mission to attack Republicans as unconcerned about the poor.

The hypocrisy of these attacks may…

In September 2012, MSNBC host Joe Scarborough took a shot at frequent Morning Joe panelist and guest host Mike Barnicle, griping that the liberal made his morning show a “Marxist variety hour.” That observation was justified again Tuesday, as guest host Barnicle’s all-liberal panel bashed House Republicans for the second day in a row – this time on immigration reform.

MSNBC’s Chris Jansing: Supreme Court Decision A ‘Setback For Civil

Another Bizarre Scarborough Blooper About Zimmerman Trial: Joe Doesn't
Another day, another bizarre blooper by Joe Scarborough regarding the trial of George Zimmerman.
We reported yesterday that Scarborough—ignoring the rule against double jeopardy—claimed that the absence of African-Americans on the jury would subject a verdict to immediate appeal. Today, the Morning Joe host curiously claimed that the prosecution had a big hill to climb because "you don't…
