‘Sister Missionary Position’: Anti-Catholicism Among March for Mar
Liberal media sources accused attendees at the National Organization for Marriage’s second annual “March for Marriage” of being “anti-gay.” In truth, the only anti-anything to be seen was among the counter-protestors.

Morning Joe on Mika's Obama Interview: Looks Like 'He Wants to Go Home
Someday, Barack Obama might make a fine professor somewhere. In the meantime, someone should remind him that he's still President of the United States . . .

AP's Caldwell Protects New WH PressSec Earnest As He Blames 'Criminal
As I noted yesterday, the Associated Press's Alicia Caldwell managed to ignore President Barack Obama's unilaterally imposed and recently extended "Deferred Action for Child Arrivals" (DACA) policy as the most obvious explanation for the sudden wave of "Unaccompanied Alien Children" (Homeland Security's term) illegally crossing the nation's southern border.
As weak as her report was, it had…

Protests are usually designed as attention-grabbers, publicity-seeking events. But liberal reporters cannot be dragged to a conservative protest. Thursday’s “March for Marriage” was blown off by The Washington Post and The New York Times. Attendance too small? The Post has written 10,000 words glorifying three anti-nuke protesters.

“It shouldn't be a particularly earth-shaking turn, but in a world of rom-coms like Knocked Up and Juno, in which the heroines make the heartwarming decision to go ahead with their pregnancies, this modest…

Daily Beast's Christopher Dickey Compares Tea Partiers to 'Fire-Eater
Does the Daily Beast have an Anger Management program for its writers? If so, then Christopher Dickey is in dire need of that service.
The fire-breathing Dickey is apparently so full of hate that he attacks political groups he disagrees with even when writing on completely unrelated topics. Take for example the subject of Robert E. Lee. Even though the Confederate general died almost 150…
