I thought MSNBC hated “heavily edited tapes?” The GOP wouldn’t choose Michele Bachmann to be its spokesperson because they have no balls, not because Bachmann isn’t a dynamic speaker. This is why you saw women like Palin out in front

If you watched Rep. Bachmann’s response for the Tea Party Express, you may have noted how she was looking over your left shoulder somewhere. Instead of comparing the Tea Party Express webcast to the pool broadcast and realizing that Bachmann

I’d ask if you remember the story of a Democrat governor being attacked last year, but chances are you’d say “no.” Last year when Missouri Governor – my governor – Jay Nixon had an attempt made on his life the

I love when progressives who’ve stood against Israeli settlements and “zionists” suddenly find compassion for Jewish people, even if it’s manufactured compassion to feign straw man outrage at conservatives. Baby steps! While watching this interview with Frances Fox Piven posted

Frances Fox Piven has a history of flame-throwing. She’s better known as one-half of the infamous Cloward-Piven strategy, wherein she and her husband published a theory detailing how people could overwhelm the system, break the system, and then get higher,

I can’t stand listening to the guy blabber for more than a minute, but I listened for the hilarity of his firearms stereotyping. “That imaginary person thats gonna break into your home and kill you, who does that person look

If Joan Walsh obsessed over the facts of the Tucson shooting case as she does over every word which falls from Sarah Palin’s mouth, one might be able to take her as a credible contributor to general political discourse. As

“Here’s my report on that and guess what it’s not going to take six months and almost 400 pages to say what I have to say.” “The idea that there were not plenty of legitimate reasons for people in the

While praying for the recovery of the Safeway victims all last week, we also documented the media’s attempts to defame the tea party by tying the actions of Jared Loughner to the conservative movement — all of this done while

I don’t care if some folks classify it as a foul-mouthed, left-leaning website. It’s a funny site. Most of us can get over politics enough to appreciate humor. Reader Jordan sent this link to Cracked’s list of “9 Major Stories

I’ll keep it short. Wherein Weisberg pens a haphazard emotional rant about how guns are bad, mkay? minus fact, statistic, anything that would point out that his piece is somehow separate from what one would find scrawled on the inside

Yesterday evening I was on AC360 to discuss the Arizona Tragedy with David Gergen and Roland Martin. While I personally like Gergen, his knowledge of Arizona’s gun laws and invalid premises on conceal carry were a disservice to our discussion.

Why is the lead investigator opining about a case which he should be investigating instead of using for political spin? [youtube FyJMS16u8uM nolink] It’s irrelevant to me that Dupnik is a Democrat and an elected official; he should not be

Cooler heads. And honesty. Let’s be honest: Journalists often use military terminology in describing campaigns. We talk about the air war, the bombshells, targeting politicians, knocking them off, candidates returning fire or being out of ammunition. So we shouldn’t act
