WashPost, NYT Uncritically Hail ObamaCare Delay, Omit Sebelius's Pledg
"More time for health sign-up" cheered the Washington Post front-page headline for Amy Goldstein's March 26 story on the administration's latest ObamaCare delay, this time for the individual mandate which requires Americans to be insured so as to avoid paying a "tax" penalty. In an amazing dereliction of her journalistic duty, Goldstein utterly failed to mention that just two weeks earlier HHS…
Limbaugh, Palin Defend Drudge's Payment of ObamaCare 'Liberty Tax
Ever since Friday afternoon, when Matt Drudge tweeted that he had just paid the “ObamaCare penalty for not getting covered” and called it a “Liberty Tax,” that post by the editor of the Drudge Report website has been slammed as a “flat lie” and “bad press” for the approaching March 31 enrollment deadline of the Affordable Care Act.

Press Morphs Obama's 'Regional Power' Assertion About Russia Into an I
At President Barack Obama's press conference in The Hague, Netherlands today, as part of a much longer question, ABC's Jonathan Karl asked Obama whether "Mitt Romney had a point when he said that Russia is America’s biggest geopolitical foe? If not Russia, who?"

NewsBusted: The Madness of King Obama; Jimmy Carter's Still Waiting by
"Well, March Madness is in full swing. No, not the NCAA tournament, but President Obama pushing ObamaCare despite the fact that nobody wants it."

AP and Politico Both Sleep as Risen Calls Obama Admin 'Greatest Enemy
A search on the name of James Risen (not in quotes) returns nothing relevant at the Associated Press. All that comes back at the Politico is a link to a post yesterday at Dylan Byers' On Media Blog containing one pertinent sentence: "James Risen slams the Obama administration." Whoopee.
Risen is the Pulitzer Prize-winning American journalist for The New York Times who has been in the Obama…
MRC Study: Network TV Gives Obamacare Less Than One Percent of Evening
Unquestionably, ObamaCare is the central political issue of 2014.

MSNBC's Ronan Farrow, Lisa Bloom Try to Connect Trayvon Martin to Raci
Just when you thought it was finally safe to watch news programs and be free of any references to slain black teenager Trayvon Martin, along comes Monday's edition of Ronan Farrow Daily in which the MSNBC host and a legal analyst linked Martin's tragic life and a new study to claim he was a victim of a system that punishes African-American preschool children three times more often than their…

CNN's John King: Obama Claimed 'He Could Unite The World,' But Can't G
On Monday's New Day, CNN's John King refreshingly spotlighted one of President Obama's key campaign promises from 2008 about foreign policy during a discussion about how to respond to Russia's aggression in Crimea. King wondered if "a President who came to office saying he could unite the world and would have better international diplomacy than George W. Bush – at least on this one, doesn't…
Forget ObamaCare, NBC's 'Today' Wonders if President Will Get A New Ce
With one week to go before the March 31 ObamaCare enrollment deadline, Monday's NBC Today completely skipped any reporting on the latest sign-up numbers still being below administration projections.

Mitt Romney on Obama’s Handling of Russia’s Invasion of Ukraine
Former presidential candidate Mitt Romney had some harsh words for President Obama over his handling of the crisis in Ukraine.

David Brooks: Obama Would Have to 'Ride With Miley Cyrus On The Wrecki
Barack Obama has taken a few soft-soap interviews on the PBS NewsHour, so anchor Judy Woodruff didn't want to say he was sell Obamacare in less than dignified forums -- like prank interviews with the schlub from "The Hangover" movies.
Pseudoconservative analyst David Brooks and liberal Mark Shields typically agreed that Obama has oodles of dignity and cannot be mocked. Brooks said only if…
