In November, Rosie O'Donnell visited the Occupy Wall Street protests with a film crew at Zuccotti Park. Now, Us Weekly magazine is reporting Rosie didn't exactly act like the "99 percent" in proposing gay marriage, for the second time, to New York-based headhunter Michelle Rounds. "I proposed with my head down, hand out and a huge lump in my throat," O'Donnell told Us. Jewelry expert Michael…

The Washington Post on Saturday offered a chiding, negative response to British Prime Minister David Cameron’s decision to veto a new European Union treaty that would have more closely bound the country and meant the possibility of new taxes. Staff writer Anthony Faiola scolded on the front page, “At the same time, Cameron made life harder for a region desperately trying to unite behind a…

CNN's liberal anchor Fareed Zakaria whacked Republicans in an interview clip that aired on CNN Friday, asserting that the GOP primary "wants people to say incendiary things." Zakaria's full interview with faux-conservative presidential candidate Jon Huntsman will air Sunday on Fareed Zakaria GPS. Zakaria set the table for Huntsman, the liberal media's favorite GOP candidate, to blister the…

Jay Leno on Friday took what many might think was a double entendre poke at Republican presidential candidate Rick Perry. After playing the Texas governor's new ad dealing with gays serving openly in the military, the Tonight Show host quipped, "It's the same jacket Heath Ledger wore in 'Brokeback Mountain,' but we won't go there" (video follows with transcript and commentary):

On the PBS NewsHour weekly Political Wrap on Friday night, liberal analyst Mark Shields cheered President Obama's speech in (Texas, oops) Kansas on soak-the-rich populism: "At long last. I think the president has danced around a number of theories of governance, that we could all reason together, the Rodney King approach, which came a cropper." He's not a natural populist, Shields said, but "I…

The Obama-loving media have been paying a lot of attention of late to flipflops made by Republican presidential candidates Newt Gingrich and Mitt Romney throughout their respective political careers. Yet as Politico loosely addressed earlier this month, the current White House resident signed a bill in November that reversed his campaign pledge to prevent the slaughter of horses (picture…

Parade magazine, the Sunday newspaper supplement, bows and scrapes before liberal actor Matt Damon in the December 11 edition, oozing on the cover that Damon is "The Sexiest Family Man Alive."  Damon is promoting the forthcoming family movie We Bought a Zoo. Parade's Brooke Hauser wrote "Damon has been outspoken on issues like tax inequality and education -- leading activist filmmaker Michael…

Friday's NBC Nightly News ran a report touting the prospect that President Obama could portray the current Congress as a "Do-Nothing Congress," based primarily on the number of bills passed rather than delving into the issues addressed, even making a comparison with the 1995 Republican Congress as if it could be similarly described as unproductive. Correspondent Kelly O'Donnell's piece put…

As NewsBusters reported, the media gushed and fawned over President Obama's speech last Tuesday likening himself to Teddy Roosevelt. On Friday's Inside Washington, Charles Krauthammer called this "a classic example of how little it takes to stir the erogenous zones of liberals" (video follows with transcript and commentary):

Fox News's Bill O'Reilly and Comedy Central's Jon Stewart are once again locked in a battle of wits. Having been told by O'Reilly that he was "going to hell" for remarks he made about the war on Christmas, Stewart said Thursday, "I make my living watching Fox News eight hours a day. I'm already in hell! Boom! Boom! Your move, O'Reilly." This led The Factor host to marvelously respond Friday…

For general discussion and debate. Possible talking point: the presidential race. How do you feel about Newt Gingrich's surge? Does the possibility of a Gingrich nomination make you happy or sad? If the latter, who's your pony in this race and why?

I know we've got Army-Navy today, but what does one do on a Saturday without a full complement of college football games? Anything else of sports interest this weekend apart from tomorrow's football matchups?

No wonder President Obama adopted some of the language of the Occupy movement in his class-warfare speech this week.  It's led by the likes of Alfredo Carrasquillo, a fellow "community organizer" with whom the president perhaps identifies.  Carrasquillo specializes in breaking into foreclosed homes to dole them out to people—beginning with himself—to live in. Chris Hayes gave Carrasquillo a…

Once upon a time, women were considered the “fairer sex,” the “better half.” Stewardesses were talented and beautiful. Wives were softer, more gentle. Men fought for their honor. Feminism crushed all of that. It is a testimony to their movement that in today’s post-feminist entertainment media, part of what makes television so corrosive and sour is just how piggish the women have become. The…
