Chris Matthews: I Was 'Totally Unprepared' for 'Prospect' of ObamaCare

How detached is Chris Matthews from the rest of the country? The Hardball host on Thursday appeared bewildered as he conceded to being "totally unprepared" for the prospect that Obamacare might be "ripped off the books."

Liberals in Shock as Obamacare Hearings Force Them to Realize Conserva

After three days of oral arguments at the Supreme Court on Obamcare, liberals seem genuinely stunned that Obamacare has a good chance of going down in flames. They never saw it coming.

Behind the Scenes: The Lefty PR Group That Stokes Consumer Fear of BPA

The science against BPA isn’t very convincing, yet the left-wing onslaught from environmental groups, activist scientists and the media has convinced many consumers that soup cans, soda bottles and plastic storage containers are going to make them sick. In the case of BPA, perception and reality are far different, but false perceptions can still cost businesses millions -- or put them out of…

Zeke Emanuel on MSNBC: Lack of 'Severability' In ObamaCare Just An 'Ov

On today's edition of MSNBC's Now with Alex Wagner, ObamaCare apologist and Rahm Emanuel sibling Zeke Emanuel insisted that the lack of a "severability clause" in the health care overhaul legislation was simply an "oversight, not an intention." Neither host Alex Wagner nor any panelist interjected to correct the record. In fact, severability was not inserted into the ObamaCare legislation as…

NYTimes Still Promoting Leftist Doves at J Street as 'Pro-Israel

Why is the New York Times so invested in promoting J Street, the minor, left-wing group of Jewish doves, as an influential counterweight to the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC)? Reporter Helene Cooper Wednesday gave the benefit of the doubt to J Street, which wants to, in its words, "end the occupation" of Palestinian land, complains on its website about the influence on…

Predictable: Katy Perry’s Patriotic Video Draws Lefty Ire

Some on the left have noted a disturbing trend – despite their best efforts, people keep seeing the U.S. military as admirable. When Seal Team 6 killed Osama Bin Laden on the orders of a liberal Democrat commander in chief, lefties had to endure the nation’s celebration of the special ops warriors. Then “Act of Valor” his theaters last month, and a variety of liberal outlets branded the…

Media Largely Ignore ObamaCare's War on Physician-Owned Hospitals

With the two-year anniversary of the law's signing and this week's marathon set of hearings before the Supreme Court about ObamaCare, it's a good time to examine just another area where the media have failed to report on a little-reported liberty-infringing aspect of the health care overhaul. No, I'm not talking about not the individual mandate. I'm talking about a provision that forbids the…

Nothing to See Here: Anderson Cooper and Piers Morgan Barely Mention O

CNN's own legal analyst described Wednesday morning's Supreme Court hearing on ObamaCare as a "trainwreck" for the Obama administration and added "it may also be a plane wreck" – but prime-time hosts Anderson Cooper and Piers Morgan made only one brief mention between them of the bill's rough morning in court, during Wednesday night's prime-time coverage.

AP Headline on House's Unanimous Rejection of Obama Budget: 'GOP-run H

Every Congressman who voted on President Obama's budget on Wednesday voted against it -- every Democrat and every Republican. The headline writer for Andrew Taylor's related story at the Associated Press nonetheless felt it necessary to remind readers that Republicans have a majority in the House of Representatives, and only told readers that Dear Leader's budget was "easily" rejected. The…
