Politico Columnist: Putting a Woman on the $10 Bill 'Isn't Worthy'

NPR Calls Hillary's 'All Lives Matter' Statement a '3-Word Misstep'

The politically correct speech police are everywhere these days. Many members of the leftist establishment have taken it upon themselves to aid in their enforcement efforts.

Left's 'Micro-Aggression' Fetish Underscores Rarity of Racist Violence

The massacre of black churchgoers in Charleston by an evil psycho is a hideous thing. The case is especially sickening because the victims were chosen specifically because of their race. Thank God it's extremely rare for whites to target black people for attack.

Lefty Blogger: These Days, ‘Just About All the Racists’ Are Republican

Several years ago, an episode of The Simpsons featured a Fox News helicopter emblazoned with a fictional slogan for the channel: “Not Racist, But #1 With Racists.” Washington Monthly blogger Ed Kilgore seems to think that those words fit the modern Republican party.

Limbaugh: Left Won't Stop at Purge of Confederate Flag - US Flag Next

Once again, it's not what it appears with liberals. Their exploitative effort in the wake of the Charleston church massacre to eradicate the Confederate flag is masking a larger target they'll go after soon enough, warns radio host Rush Limbaugh. With trademark clarity and perception on his show Tuesday, Limbaugh described liberals' latest obsession as yet another example of misdirection while…
