Sally Kohn Offers Lessons From Her Fox News Stint: Those People Are Ki
Liberal pundit Sally Kohn is on Yahoo! this morning with an article titled "What I learned as a liberal talking head on Fox News." She learned conservatives were personable and human.

Census Health Coverage Survey Changes Make Obamacare Results Undetermi
In a Tuesday story which appears to have been handed to it on a silver platter, and which the rest of the establishment press seems uninterested in spreading (given that searches at 11:45 p.m. Tuesday at the Associated Press and at Politico returned nothing relevant), the New York Times has reported that the Census Bureau "is changing its annual survey so thoroughly that it will be difficult to…
On Tax Day, Chris Hayes Sticks Up for the IRS
MSNBC's Chris Hayes celebrated Tax Day by standing up for the IRS as the "cornerstone" of the federal government and lambasting Republicans for trying to gut the agency.

NewsBusted: The Dubious 'Reverend' Al, FBI Snitch
"Al Sharpton is now denying he was an FBI informant, saying it's a dubious assertion. You know, just like Sharpton’s dubious assertion that he's a reverend."

New Census Questions Will Change ObamaCare Findings; Networks Ignore
New Census questions will change the findings on the impact of ObamaCare, reported the New York Times on Tuesday. The broadcast networks ignored this new report on the Tuesday evening newscasts, however.

During the most recent edition of Fox News Sunday, political analyst Brit Hume asserted that attorney general Eric Holder had become a “crybaby” and that he and president Barack Obama have “benefited enormously” from being the first African-Americans to hold the offices they now inhabit.

Rory Reid Slams BLM as 'Losers' on Nevada TV
Sheesh! Talk about a complete ingrate...
Many people suspect that the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) instigated an over the top paramilitary confrontation with Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy at the behest of Senator Harry Reid especially since the new BLM director, Neil Kornze, was an aide to Reid. So how does Harry's son, Rory Reid, thank the BLM rangers for putting their lives at risk over…

After his Masters victory, pro golfer Bubba Watson celebrated with his family at a Waffle House. Pictures tweeted from there went viral. Waffle House appreciated the appreciation.

Jonathan Alter: When Will Liberals Call for More Boycotts of 'Racist
Former Newsweek editor Jonathan Alter appeared on The Ed Show, Tuesday, to lobby for more boycotts of the "racist" Rush Limbaugh.

MSNBC's Gripe: 'Gay Couples Feel Tax Wrath
Tax Day, April 15, is a perfect day for a news organization to publish stories about tax reform debates, including the notion that perhaps we should do away with a national income tax and replace it with a national sales tax. Perhaps instead we should have a flat tax with very few, if any, deductions, credits, and all kinds of other exemptions which gum up the tax code.
A sensible news…
Robert Reich: Spread Ownership Because ‘Whole Country Ought to Be Pa
Former U.S. Labor Secretary Robert Reich made a very curious statement on Monday’s Morning Joe.

CNN's King Plays Up CBO's ObamaCare Projection; Wonders Why Dems Won't
On Tuesday's New Day, CNN's John King hyped the Congressional Budget Office's projection about ObamaCare – that "yes, ObamaCare is expensive, but less expensive than they thought – by about $104 billion over 10 years.
