For the past weeks, the president of the United States has been running around the country lying like a rug about sequester. And yet, in its round-up of sequestration statements made by Obama and others, PolitiFact has not only refused
This Washington Post headline says the reasons are “elusive,” but there’s no question that, when it comes to violent crime, we can forever rule out a couple of left-wing myths: Though gun ownership has spiked along with the poverty rate,

For a time CNN’s Piers Morgan was able to boost his ratings some through the shameless exploitation of the children murdered in the Sandy Hook Elementary massacre. But like the slow-motion train wreck he is, people can only stare at

Ali Velshi is CNN’s Chief Business Correspondent and Barack Obama’s Chief Sequester Propagandist. This so-called correspondent is a living breathing pipe-organ for the White House and its latest push to blame sequester — and by extension, the GOP — for
There is no greater danger to the left (and therefore the media) than minorities who “forget their place” and join the Republican Party. Each time this occurs, it represents a two-part existential threat. First, these apostates undermine the cherished media
Hours before the $85 billion sequester cuts will take place, we learned that personal income dropped 3.6% last month, the biggest drop in two decades. Weeks before the awful-terrible-doomsday 2% cut in the federal budget takes place, we learned that
As though manufactured anonymous sources wasn’t enough, today BuzzFeed’s own Andrew Kaczynski is now tweeting out mockery of sequestration fear-mongering. Yes, that’s correct, ladies and gentlemen, a guy who works for a site that was the tip of the online
“The sequester is not something that I’ve proposed. It is something that Congress has proposed.” – Barack Obama The President of the United States is lying. He’s not lying about his personal life sex a la Bill Clinton; he’s lying

The ObamaMedia really needs to get its talking points together. Though Woodward never claimed he’d been threatened, Obama’s dishonest media minions are pushing back as though he said he was. Now we have The Week’s Marc Ambinder trying a new

Bill Frezz at Forbes makes the exact same point I have about how Obama and the media’s big sequester gamble is now collapsing: President Obama has gone all-in trying to get Republicans to blink and serve up another round of
Over the past weeks, President Obama has been running around the country like Chicken Little spreading falsehoods about sequester, all in the hopes of blaming a 2% budget cut (which he proposed and signed into law) for an anemic economy
UPDATE: Democrat Lanny Davis agrees that Sperling’s email threatend Woodward: Did Gene Sperling effectively handle his interactions with Bob Woodward? Hardly, says friend and former colleague Lanny Davis. “He should know better,” Davis told POLITICO. “Did Bob Woodward get a single fact
