ABC Elevates Left-Wing Hit, Charges ‘Limbaugh Hurls Racially-Charged

Picking up on a blog post by a far-left group devoted to silencing Rush Limbaugh, ABC’s World News on Monday night dedicated an entire story to one word used by the conservative radio host, a comment the other networks failed to find newsworthy. “Loaded words,” fill-in anchor Georgre Stephanopoulos ominously teased, “the First Lady booed at a NASCAR event. Now Rush Limbaugh weighs in, hurling a…

Open Thread: Will Voter IDs Fix Voter Fraud

A number of states across the country are pushing voter ID measures to curb voter fraud at the polls. Unfortunately, the Republicans pushing these measures are often accused of being racist or disenfranchising toward minority groups of the population without access to government-issued identification. In fact, just last week on Nov. 14, a group of Democratic representatives met to discuss what…

The Secrets of Soros, Obama, Occupiers and the MSM (Part

Last week, I discussed how Occupy protesters are being directly aided by the mainstream media and indirectly aided by White House stimulus money, as well as New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg's and even Vice President Joe Biden's households. I also detailed how the mainstream media are accelerating their progressive blitz not only to hasten the second coming, or election, of President Barack…

Searching In Vain for the Perfect Candidate

Now it's Newt's turn. Having risen to the top in some opinion polls, the former speaker of the House is taking heat for large consulting fees paid to him by the government-sponsored mortgage company Freddie Mac for wisdom a New York Times editorial said was so simplistic it might have come from a fortune cookie.

Meacham: Obama 'In The Wrong Business, Doesn't Particularly Like Peopl

When it comes to the MSM, it's hard to get more mainstream than Jon Meacham.  Former Newsweek editor. Current Random House editor.  Picked for a Pulitzer Prize. So when someone of Meacham's genteelly liberal ilk unloads on Barack Obama in such stark terms, it's newsworthy.  On today's Morning Joe, Meacham flatly stated his belief that President Obama "doesn't particularly like people and…

NYT Mag: 'What if Our Kids Really Believed We Wanted Them to Have Grea

First it was the New York Times Sunday Review that traded in liberal news analysis for hard-left essays; will the Times Sunday Magazine follow in those left-ward steps? Three long stories from outside writers suggest yes. Social liberalism: Laurie Abraham’s cover story celebrated the joy of talking sex with high-school seniors: “Teaching Good Sex – A frank, fearless approach to the birds and…

Bashir Defends OWS: 'If Anyone's Dirty It's Newt Gingrich' Whose 'Mora

Much like his MSNBC colleague Mika Brzezinski, Martin Bashir was not pleased with Republican presidential candidate Newt Gingrich suggesting that Occupy Wall Street protesters should get a job right after they take a bath.

Paul Begala: 'Newt Gingrich Would Be a Godsend to the Democrats

Because you probably don't pay much attention to Newsweek or the Daily Beast, you likely didn't know former Clinton adviser Paul Begala is now a columnist for the combination of these failing so-called news organizations. Demonstrating exactly why the merger of these two perilously liberal outlets appears to be a financial bust, and why he fits in so perfectly, Begala on Monday published a…

Obama To Sharpton: 'My Religious Faith' Makes Me Believe Republicans W

On his MSNBC show this evening, Al Sharpton played the audio of his radio-show interview of President Obama in which the president, commenting on the failure of the Super Committee, said "my religious faith" makes him believe at some point Republicans will agree to raise taxes.

AP Attempting to Rewrite History of Obama's and Dems' Occupy Movement

Give John Nolte a gold star. In a Friday post at BigJournalism.com entitled "Panicked AP Attempts to Memory-Hole Democrats’ #Occupy Endorsements," Nolte latched onto the beginnings of the establishment press's desperate attempt to distance President Obama and the Democratic Party from the rapidly devolving Occupy movement. The disingenously headlined item Nolte caught, apparently from an…

Was Alina Cho flirting with Senator John Kerry (D-Massachusetts) on CNN Monday? While discussing the Super Committee's failure on American Morning, Cho oddly said to her guest, "Just yesterday on Meet the Press you said there were things you agreed to that you didn't want to talk about public, which sounded very sexy I might add" (video follows with transcript and commentary):
