Your Friday night funny: Tim Allen, as Mike Baxter in the ABC comedy Last Man Standing, gets in hits at the Nanny State and King Obama in this scene from the episode "Gift of the Wise Man."

For years, first at the Washington Post's Wonkblog and now at Vox, Sarah Kliff has been happily chirping away about the wonders of Obamacare. She has been perhaps its biggest cheerleader by far. And then the predictable collapse of its cooperatives hit and now poor Sarah has gone silent on the whole topic of Obamacare since November 19 when she sadly delivered apocalyptic news about the nation's…

It's one thing to dump on Trump, as author Rick Perlstein did on today's With All Due Respect, calling The Donald a modern-day George Wallace, and floating "fascism" about him. But Perlstein took things a nasty step further, denigrating Trump supporters in the ugliest terms. Per Perlstein, Trump has unleashed forces in his supporters "that are more animalistic than human." Perlstein added that…

For a change, Martin Crutsinger's coverage at the Associated Press of the federal government's November Monthly Treasury Statement wasn't completely full of rose-colored baloney. Crutsinger managed to note how auto-pilot entitlement programs like Social Security and Medicare are bankrupting the country (not in those words, of course). That said, he somehow thought that highlighting a rare and…

As NewsBusters reported almost a month ago, Stephen Colbert -- CBS's new late-night talk-show host -- has been losing ground to Jimmy Kimmel on ABC and NBC's Jimmy Fallon, a drop that includes many Republicans and has sent him to third place among late-night viewers. However, David Poltrack -- chief research officer at CBS Corp. -- has stated that a more dire threat The Late Show faces is not…

As it turns out, Jenner isn’t all the left hoped for. After months of celebrating Bruce Jenner’s transition to Caitlyn Jenner earlier this year, the liberal media are turning on their former “hero” for not being “transgender” enough. Apparently, Jenner doesn’t say all the “right things” that a true liberal icon should – and so now, the left is eating one of its own.

The media rushed to cover a recent poll showing support for federal funding of Planned Parenthood. But when another poll surfaced with the opposite findings, journalists looked the other way. Days before the U.S. Senate voted to defund Planned Parenthood, a nationwide poll by Robert Morris University showed a majority supported defunding the nation’s No. 1 abortion provider. In contrast to other…

Kurt Russell has fought fires in the movie Backdraft, Chinese gangs in Big Trouble in Little China, American outlaws in Tombstone, crime bosses in Escape From New York and the Russian hockey team in Miracle. Now, he’s taking on the liberal media. Russell was recently interviewed by Jeffrey Wells of Hollywood Elsewhere about his upcoming film Hateful Eight – directed by the very controversial…

Okay, in a show that is essentially an orgy of death and sex, and…well…sexual death, finding moments of moral clarity becomes something of a challenge. However, though it ended very, very badly, Wednesday night’s episode, titled “She Wants Revenge,” offered one of those moments.

While interviewing Hillary Clinton on Thursday’s NBC Late Night, aired early Friday morning, host Seth Meyers lobbed softballs to the Democratic frontrunner on gun control: “...we have lived through so many tragic shootings...in recent months. You know, obviously, gun control is a big part of your campaign. But how can you convince people now that gun control – considering how many times it’s…

The liberal, pro-gun control governor of Connecticut came under very little scrutiny, Friday, in an interview for CBS This Morning. Daniel Malloy has signed an executive order that would ban anyone on the federal no-fly watch list from purchasing a gun in his state. Instead of offering constitutional or due process questions, co-host Charlie Rose touted, “Connecticut's governor vows this morning…

This week, Naomi Klein admitted that the true climate change agenda is to destroy capitalism and redistribute wealth. On Dec. 10, The Huffington Post published activist Naomi Klein’s speech delivered to the Global Labor Institute event in Paris, on Dec. 7. Her speech was timed to the U.N. conference on climate change taking place in Paris. The GLI event focused on the role of trade unions in…

In his Thursday front-page New York Times profile of "gruff" Sen. Ted Cruz, Matt Flegenheimer took pains to portray the Texas senator and Republican candidate as an unlikeable, socially awkward “bomb-thrower” ideologue (“appraised as grating and pompous as a matter of bipartisan consensus”) in “Cruz the Gruff Taking a Turn At Being Nice.” The online headline was no less hostile: "After Making…

Writer Phoebe Maltz Bovy has done the United States a service. (Actually, two – it seems she’s expatriated to Canada. Your grateful homeland salutes you, Ms. Bovy!) Bovy has given free range to her progressive id with a screed in The New Republic (or what’s left of it) demanding a ban on guns – “Yes, all of them.” Hers is the latest in a trickle of admissions from the left about their real long-…
