Mother Jones Blogger Lauds Obama’s Lack of ‘Blood Lust’ Toward ISIS

Chris Matthews: Air Strikes Against ISIS Will Lead to 'More' Violence
Chris Matthews on Wednesday urged the American people to "grow up" and accept that war against ISIS will be a long, bloody struggle.

Politico: N.Y. Governor Cuomo Has 'At-Times Centrist Governing Style'
The Politico email Tuesday night announcing incumbent Andrew Cuomo's primary victory in New York over a far-left opponent described the incumbent Democratic governor as having an "at-times centrist governing style."
Surely that nonsense wouldn't make it into the online publication's actual story, I thought. But of course, it did. This about a governor who has openly advocated confiscating guns,…

Ted Cruz: Vague Campaign-Finance Amendment Could Threaten 'SNL'
