AP On Rising Gas Prices: Not Obama's Fault
We get it, Associated Press. We get it!
Rising gasoline prices are NOT President Obama's fault. Or so you want us to believe. However, could you be just a little less blatant in pitching that line? As it is, your lack of subtlety in hammering home that message is embarrassing to read such as your latest example in which you mention that some people blame Obama along with a lot of other…

Even Scalia? CNN Legal Analyst Toobin Says SCOTUS Might Uphold ObamaCa
If the Supreme Court upheld ObamaCare, would it really be by an eight-to-one margin?

Hypocritical Piers Morgan Slams Gingrich's 'Overreaction' to 'White Fi
Piers Morgan is astonished at Newt Gingrich's outrage over Robert DeNiro's knock on GOP white First Ladies – but it's a slim chance the liberal CNN host would be trying to calm the tempest if Michelle Obama were the butt of a celebrity joke.
DeNiro, speaking at an Obama fundraiser, had joked that after seeing the wives of the Republican candidates, America wouldn't be ready for a "white"…

NYTimes Movie Critic Doesn't Even Try to Hide Her Outrage at Pro-Life
New York Times critic Jeannette Catsoulis didn't even try in her brief review to render an objective look at the pro-life movie "October Baby," as her copy seethed with anger and evident indignation that pro-lifers still existed in this day and age (note to Catsoulis: by some poll numbers, there are more pro-lifers that pro-abortion believers). Catsoulis's political views are of the simplistic…
