Writer Stephen King: If You Can't Read, You'll End Up in the Army or
Remember shortly before Election Day 2006 when Sen. John Kerry (D-MA) suggested that if you don't get a good education, "you get stuck in Iraq" (video available here)? Well, last month, famed horror author Stephen King was speaking in front of a group of high school students at the Library of Congress, and he virtually made the exact same statement.For those that can bear it, what follows is…
Daily Mail Reporter Outraged Over Gitmo Gift Shop Souvenirs
Oh the outrage! The gift shop at Guantamo Bay sells a T-shirt that features a guard tower and barbed wire with wording that says: "The Taliban Towers at Guantanamo Bay, the Caribbean's Newest 5-star Resort." Another T-shirt from the same gift shop dares to praise, "the proud protectors of freedom". And yet another T-shirt shows an iguana with this "heartless" wording: "Greetings from paradise…
Hedgehog Hillary Hatin' on Oil Companies
The fox knows many things, but the hedgehog knows one big thing.—Archilochus (7th-century BC)Mark Penn might not be appearing before the cameras on Hillary's behalf nowadays, but bet that he is beavering away behind the scenes on his polling. And judging from Hillary's dogged [to mix an animal metaphor] performance on this morning's Today, it's obvious the pollster's turned up one big thing: Dem…

NYT's Friedman: Hard Work 'Asian Values,' No Longer American Values
I always find it amazing when writers in the mainstream press seem to have so little knowledge of America and its history. Of course, I suppose that being blissfully ignorant of US history does help paper over their betrayal, substituting the feeling that they can maintain allegiance to American "ideals" as they attempt to advocate for the sort of socialist/communist vision that they want America…
Sunday Funnies: Hillary Says Rush Limbaugh's 'Always Had a Crush on Me
For your evening entertainment pleasure, there really was a great moment on ABC's "This Week" Sunday that was absolutely must-see TV.Host George Stephanopoulos off-handedly mentioned "Operation Chaos" by telling guest Hillary Clinton: Rush Limbaugh is asking Republicans to come out and vote for you in order to divide the Party.Without skipping a beat, Clinton marvelously answered (video embedded…
CBS: 'Unpatriotic' Works, Even Against Purple Heart-Earning Kerry
Demonstrating how the mainstream media will view criticism of Barack Obama through the prism of past attacks on Democrats they consider illegitimate, Dean Reynolds concluded a Sunday night CBS Evening News story on Barack Obama by suggesting Democrats are well-justified in fearing Republicans will succeed in portraying Obama as “out of the mainstream,'” which Reynolds described as “code for '…
Wallace Asks Dean Why Democrats Are Suddenly Coming on Fox

Media Ignore Serious Flaw in Clinton's Indiana Ad
Last Wednesday, ABC's "World News with Charles Gibson" exposed a serious flaw in a television advertisement Democrat presidential candidate Hillary Clinton is running in Indiana (video embedded right, h/t Gateway Pundit).In fact, Indiana newspapers began pointing out the former first lady's mistake almost three weeks ago after she spoke at a school in that state.Yet, according to LexisNexis, no…
Stumped: Hillary Can't Name One Economist Who Supports Her Gas-Tax Hol
My two cents say George Stephanopoulos gave Hillary a harder time than Tim Russert did Obama during their respective appearances on This Week and Meet the Press today. Russert never pinned Obama down on exactly what he knew of Rev. Wright's most controversial assertions and when he knew it.Over on ABC, Stephanopoulos twice challenged Hillary to name a single economist who supported her proposal…
