AP's Advice Blames 'Insurance Plans' For Higher Out-of-Pocket Costs, A

In among the more pathetic uses of the passive voice I've seen employed to protect guilty parties, a short, unbylined personal finance-related item at ABC's web site today by the Associated Press, aka the Administration's Press, identifies "5 KEYS TO SUCCESSFUL HEALTH CARE SHOPPING." The writeup doesn't mention the fact that shopping for plans in the first place is difficult (actually, closer…

‘Book of Jezebel’: Kids are ‘Side Effect of Sex’ and Other Def

If there were a book dedicated to Jezebel in the Bible, the story might somewhat resemble the new feminist book, “The Book of Jezebel:” encouraging worship of false idols and ending up as a corpse left to the dogs. In the case of the actual tome, “The Book of Jezebel,” the false idol is the self. Described as “an illustrated encyclopedia of lady things,” and edited by Anna Holmes, founder of …

Sarah Palin Unloads on Piers Morgan After CNN Host Mocked Her on Twitt

After Piers Morgan mocked Sarah Palin by linking to a phony news report, Palin shot back on Friday with a photo of her in hunting gear next to a dead bear. "Piers: Kind of busy right now," the caption read. "Oh dear Piers, thank you so much for all your invitations to appear on your shambolic show, including the adoring message you sent.

Name That Party: ABC Skips Dem ID of Gubernatorial Candidate at Undera

 All three networks on Thursday night and Friday morning highlighted the photographs of a gubernatorial candidate from Maryland at a teen party that featured underage teens and drinking. Yet, ABC failed to mention that Doug Gansler, the top tier candidate, is a Democrat. ABC featured the most aggressive coverage. Reporter Jim Avila confronted the "would-be governor."

'Malcolm in the Middle' Star: 'This Obamacare Launch Is an Embarrassme

As NewsBusters reported Thursday, President Obama has lost some of Hollywood as a result of domestic spying by the National Security Agency.

Georgetown Becomes Fluketown: Catholic Law School to Teach Abortion Ad

Secular feminist media outlets never saw rational objections to the conflict between Georgetown University as a college affiliated with the Catholic Church and Georgetown Law student Sandra Fluke demanding insurance coverage for contraceptions and gender-reassignment surgery.

Walter E. Williams Column: Left-wing Professors Love to Hate Our Count

As I've documented in the past, many leftist teachers teach our youngsters to hate our country. For example, University of Hawaii Professor Haunani-Kay Trask counseled her students, "We need to think very, very clearly about who the enemy is. The enemy is the United States of America and everyone who supports it." Some universities hire former terrorists to teach and indoctrinate students.…

Hannity: Sebelius Keeps Her Job But ObamaCare Operator Gets Fired for

By now you’ve likely heard the story of Earline Davis, an ObamaCare operator who got fired because she talked to conservative radio host Sean Hannity while she was on the job earlier in the week. Hannity was on Fox & Friends Friday morning, and he discussed the irony of Davis, who makes $11.69 an hour, getting fired, yet Health and Human Resources secretary Kathleen Sebelius, who’s…

Jenny McCarthy's Deep Bow: Barbara Walters Is The 'Holy Grail

Sitting in a doctor’s office today, I found the October 14-20 issue of TV Guide with an interview with Jenny McCarthy, now a co-host on ABC’s “The View.” McCarthy can’t possibly be grateful enough to that ABC legend Barbara Walters. She’s positively sacred: “She’s the Holy Grail, and that’s how I treat her.”

MSNBC's Ed Schultz on Half Billion Dollar ObamaCare Website: 'It's on

  According to liberal MSNBC host Ed Schultz, the ObamaCare website, which cost nearly a half billion dollars, was created "on the cheap." During a rant on Thursday's Ed Show, the cable anchor attempted to blame congressional Republicans for the site's problems: "Republicans refuse to authorize requests from the Obama administration for additional funding to do it the right way.
