Megachurch Pastor Rick Warren has just updated re-released his mega-seller “The Purpose Driven Life” (which I very much enjoyed) and is now on a promotional tour. Just now he was on CNN where John Berman and Brook Baldwin are filling

Over at Hot Air, Allahpundit makes a superb point. On MSNBC, the insufferably smug Joe Scarborough has been blistering Republicans for days now, specifically John McCain and Lindsey Graham, for threatening to block Susan Rice’s nomination as Secretary of State.

For the record, I’m all in favor of going over the fiscal cliff. I’m willing to pay higher taxes for a few months in order to get a better deal on spending cuts and to save the soul of the

As she did with Fast and Furious, Sharyl Attkisson over at CBS News continues the unheralded work of digging into the Obama Administration’s scandals — this time being the non-stop flow of misinformation and double-talk surrounding Libya. Apparently, we’re now

This culture of death stuff that’s so ingrained in ObamaCare and the Left’s overall mindset is nothing short of terrifying. Here’s Time’s Joe Klein openly ruminating on where he would like to see Medicare/ObamaCare ultimately end up: The second caveat

The Washington Post’s Jennifer Rubin rounds up some media criticism Obama’s facing over the politics he’s so obviously playing in the face of the oncoming fiscal cliff. Rubin’s correct about this: Obama’s conduct so far bespeaks of a man still determined to

With the Identity Politics’ Crusade in full-swing as a weapon against Republicans, the story that all House Committee Chairs are filled by men got plenty of media attention. Obama’s similar “man” problem, however, probably wasn’t even looked at by a

Under a cloud of personal and political scandal, Jesse Jackson Jr. resigned from Congress today. Dave Weigel asks on Twitter: “How much will Jesse Jackson Jr cost Illinois by forcing a special election when he could have quit three weeks ago?“ The

With the high-profile media endorsement of MSNBC’s Chris Matthews, the trap is now complete. The question is whether or not New Jersey Governor Chris Christie will fall into it. Of course the media’s happy with Christie. Just as it looked

I must say, that of all the post-election criticism of conservative media (and not all of it undeserved), yesterday’s crowing from the BenSmithers over at BuzzFeed Politics was the most dopey. McKay Coppins and Ben Smith and the media in general

Because he walked into the lion’s den unprepared for the left-wing buzz-saw that is Soledad O’Brien, Texas Republican Congressman Michael Burgess just got his head handed to him on national cable television. Burgess is one of 97 Republicans who signed

As I mentioned in this piece yesterday, GQ asking FL Senator Marco Rubio about the age of the Earth and Rubio blowing the question is something that will now haunt the likely presidential candidate for the next four years. Halperin

We can whine about the double standard all day long, but that’s not fighting — it’s whining. The double standard, obviously, is that conservatives are asked questions about their faith that are intentionally meant to paint us as wacko extremists —
