Maher Digs Deep, Blames Conservative Media for Charleston Shooting
Watched Fox News today? Taken a look at what's posted on Drudge Report or The Daily Caller? Doing any of this makes you a thought criminal and potentially violent, at least according to liberal comic Bill Maher.
Wasting no time politicizing the mass murder of nine people at the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston, S.C., Maher on his show last night literally pointed a…

Amanda Marcotte: Conservatism Based On ‘Irrational Tribal Politics’
Group loyalty is a big part of politics on both sides of the fence, but as far as lefty pundit Marcotte is concerned, it’s become so inflated on the right that it often crowds out crucial things like “basic common sense.”
In a Friday Talking Points Memo column, Marcotte asserted that “conservatives are going way too far with this knee-jerk tendency to believe ‘their’ people can do no wrong and…

Hillary, Liberal Media Sites Squirm at Trump's Truths on Immigration
The truth hurts, goes the old saying. Nowhere is that better illustrated than in the liberal media’s treatment of Donald Trump’s presidential announcement. Not to mention the reaction of Hillary Clinton.
Trump must never mention that Mexican immigrants have brought violent crime, including the rape of children. That's rude. It's also documented fact.

Cuomo: 'Bigotry' Makes Some 'Reserve' the Word 'Terrorism' for Muslims
On Friday's New Day, during a discussion of why violence by Muslims is more likely to be labeled as "terrorism" in contrast with racially motivated violence like the Charleston church massacre, CNN co-anchor Chris Cuomo at one point claimed that "bigotry" in part makes people more likely to attach the word "terrorism" to violence by Muslims.

New Film Explores Fiery Bill Buckley-Gore Vidal ABC Debates in 1968
In 1968, ABC News tried to improve on its lowly third-rank status by bringing on some rock-em, sock-em commentary around the two party conventions from two intellectual heavyweights: William F. Buckley Jr. On the right, and author Gore Vidal on the left.
A new documentary – from the left, considering it carries a tag from Independent Lens, a leftist documentary series for PBS – explores the…

Arsenio Hall Blasts Brian Williams
So, Arsenio, tell us how you really feel about Brian Williams.
Actually, Arsenio Hall did tell us exactly how he felt about Brian Williams' apology yesterday and it was brutal. As you can see from his tweet below, don't expect the two to be slow jamming the news together anytime soon. Could some of the bad blood have been the result of Brian Williams snubbing Arsenio Hall when he did a story…

Romney Calls Out RT for Propagandized News
At a conference last week in Utah, former Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney decried the over-reach of Russia’s state-sponsored news outlet RT. Concerned with the obvious parallels between the agendas of RT and Vladimir Putin, Romney exclaimed, “I mean, I turn on my TV here – and there’s RT.”
Who wouldn’t be concerned about a foreign country’s propaganda being spit out 24 hours a day?

AP Airbrushes Obama's Frustration and Self-Cited Constituent Anger
Imagine if any Republican president in the past fifty years had said the following: "I get letters, people say, you are an idiot -- (laughter) -- and here’s what you didn’t do, and here’s the program that is terrible, and all kinds of stuff. But this gentleman, he said, I voted for you twice but I’m deeply disappointed. And it went on and on, chronicling all the things that hadn’t gotten done."…

Bozell & Graham Column: Rachel Dolezal and Cultural Nihilism
Black activist Rachel Dolezal was exposed. Her parents revealed she was white. But then she saw her ideological opening. On NBC, she claimed "I identify as black."
And here we go again with another ride on the Insanity Express. This preposterous line has now been adopted by another segment of the loony Left. If a man is actually a woman if that was his/her “identity,” a white woman like Dolezal…

Blogger: Trump a ‘Caricature’ of Dumb Right-Wing GOPers
Pundits occasionally opine that someone or other is the face of a given political party. Paul Waldman of The Week implies that Donald Trump would be a fitting choice as the Republican party’s face, presumably drawn by a cartoonist, since Trump is “a walking caricature…created from everything Republicans believe” about matters such as money and patriotism. “Trump is the essence of contemporary…

Jonathan Alter Hints Jeb's Bad Catholic Who Denies Papal Infallibility
Jeb Bush, a convert to the faith, is a bad Catholic who all but denies the dogma of papal infallibility. That's an argument put forward by that eminent Catholic scholar... Jonathan Alter?!
