The Washington Post doesn't really hire humorists to be funny. They seem to hire liberals that think they're funny, but really want to be liberals first. The Internet chat on Tuesday with "ComPost" blogger and humorist Alexandra Petri was a Santorum-bashing festival. If you want to see how liberals ooze their intellectual superiority at each other, this is a destination. One joked that Santorum…

Kossacks generally despise Mitt Romney, Newt Gingrich, and Ron Paul, but they seem to truly hate Rick Santorum. A la Spinal Tap's Nigel Tufnel, the DKos gang cranked the venom up to eleven this past week, repeatedly alleging that Santorum and his followers would either like to, or actually might, unleash violence against all manner of minorities, especially gays.    As usual, each headline is…

Over at Townhall Finance, columnist Jeff Carter offered "15 Questions The Mainstream Media Would Ask Barack Obama If He Were a Republican." This would be more interesting if President Obama was holding regular press conferences (he hasn't had one since early October). Jake Tapper and the rest of the White House press corps should look over the Carter list and pick one or two.

As a candidate in 2008, Barack Obama declared his support for green energy development. "For the sake of our economy, our security and the future of our planet," he said, "we must end the age of oil in our time." As president, Obama called for putting 1 million electric cars on the road by 2015. He backed that call with more than $5 billion in taxpayer subsidies to jump-start the electric car…

Time's Joe Klein said Thursday, "What the Republicans have is an awful lot of scared white people in their party." Appearing on MSNBC's The Last Word, Klein disgustingly continued, "And one of the things they're most scared about is people of different colors and ethnicities and, you know, backgrounds polluting their white picket fence sense of America" (video follows with transcript and…

As violent, deadly demonstrations have broken out in Afghanistan following the recent accidental burning of Korans, it's interesting to look back nearly three years ago when the U.S. military burned a shipment of Holy Bibles written in the Pashto and Dari languages. The military destroyed the Bibles rather than ship them back stateside apparently out of fear the American church that sent them…

While ABC's World News declared  "a big chunk of the pain at the pump is Wall Street's fault" on Thursday, on NBC's Nightly News, anchor Brian Williams similarly announced: "The problem is gas prices are largely set by commodities traders, also known these days as speculators." Correspondent Miguel Almaguer reported on "backlash from both sides of the register" as a sound bite played of Los…

The Chicago News Cooperative is -- or was -- a nonprofit journalistic entity that produces content for the Chicago edition of the New York Times. It will cease filing this weekend, having lost an expected grant. Among the delights Chicago readers will miss: Suggestions that the GOP is fueling anti-Muslim rhetoric and even hate crimes, under the label of objective reporting. David Lepeska…

ABC's John Berman on Friday chided the Republican presidential candidates for not talking about jobs enough, lecturing the GOP field that social issues could harm their chances of winning the White House. Berman whined, "...The shift to the right in rhetoric could be hurting in the middle." Regarding Romney's planned speech on tax cuts, Friday, Good Morning America's Berman condescended, " […

On Thursday, over 40 hours after the Pacific Institute's Peter Gleick (pictured here) revealed that he stole documents from the Heartland Institute by posing as one of that organization's board members, Seth Borenstein at the Associated Press finally broke the ice and filed a related three-paragraph "this is boring, you don't need to read it" dispatch. Two hours later, the AP science writer…

CBS This Morning on Friday boosted left-wing comedian John Oliver's smear on Rick Santorum, and conservatism in general, where he equated the GOP presidential candidate with a hardcore drug like crack cocaine: "America likes its conservatism cut with plenty of baking powder because one hit of the pure stuff, and you'll wake up with Eric Stoltz...having just plunged an adrenaline needle into…

Here is a simple question with an obvious answer: Is President Barack Obama more deferential to the religious sensibilities of Afghan Muslims or the religious freedom of American Catholics? The answer: Obama is more deferential to the religious sensibilities of Muslims in Afghanistan than to the religious freedom of Catholics in the United States.

Former New York Times executive editor Bill Keller confessed to liberal bias at the Times, especially on social issues like gay marriage and the recent contraception debate, but defended it, saying “if we somehow achieved absolute objectivity, it would be kind of tedious to read,” and that "Watching The New York Times try to be even-handed on some issues is like trying to watch somebody dance…

On Tuesday, Brent Bozell took apart Bill Press and his new book "The Obama Hate Machine" for making the ridiculous claim that Obama's been treated so much more savagely than other presidents in the media. But he's not alone. Paul Bedard reports in the Washington Examiner that in the book, Press described Examiner columnist Tim Carney "a liberal -- then a conservative." “It’s not every day I’…
