Last week, while trying to rally support for last minute maneuvers designed to push his health care “reform” scheme through the House of Representatives, President Obama made a revealing statement. “We are going to make history!” he exhorted a crowd
This past week, the Stage Right Show (below the fold) featured a great line-up of guest hosts because I was travelling on a cruise ship and unable to broadcast. Guest hosts included Adam Baldwin, Mike Rauseo, Billy Hallowell, Ben Shapiro
James O’Keefe has to be destroyed in some way. And the best way you can attack an effective conservative in America today is to call him a racist. In the past year the tactic has been used against Rush Limbaugh,
Howard Zinn wants teachers to bring in whatever materials they want to your child’s class room. He wants them to use their own judgement to teach whatever they think is appropriate. He wants them to subvert the rules regarding the
**Post updated with higher quality video and audio. A funny thing happened on the last day of CPAC. Max Blumenthal, recently corrected and embarrassed “journalist” from Salon.com paraded through the convention with a camera crew. Like last year, he was
On this week’s highlight show (listen in below the fold), we start with John Nolte talking about the incredible back-and-forth he had this week with Roger Ebert over his semi-coherent Twitter ramblings. We also have an interview with Andrew Breitbart

On this week’s highlight show, we start with the hilarious”feud” between Andrew Breitbart and “TV’s Andy Levy” from Fox News’ “Red Eye” that began on Twitter and ended up on “The Stage Right Show.” They were arguing about Ben Shapiro’s
Max Blumenthal is attempting to stand behind his story. His article at Salon.com remains unchanged even though the Village Voice and Dave Weigel at The Washington Independent have written detailed corrections contradicting Blumenthal’s post. At his personal website he recounts
David Weigel at the Washington Independent interviewed Marcus Epstein, organizer of the “Race and Conservatism” event that has been labeled as a “Racist Forum.” He flatly denies allegations that have been made that James O’Keefe worked at the event or
**UPDATED** 2/3/10, 1:26 PM PST Max Blumenthal has called my post yesterday at Big Journalism “fact-challenged” and “riddled with falsehoods”. I found five assertions in the piece that I had lied. I will address them in order of their appearance:
It started with a blog post at something called One People’s Project, in which someone named Daryle Jenkins claimed: (In 2006) ..there was this white supremacist forum that we had called attention to and eventually attended that featured American Renaissance’s
Last week, Howard Zinn passed away. It was only a few weeks after the History Channel had premiered the film “The People Speak” honoring his controversial book “A People’s History of the United States.” Prof. Zinn never hid the fact
We all laugh a lot about Keith Olbermann and his manic, over-the-top style, but I suggest that you look beyond his performance (bordering on self-parody in light of Jon Stewart’s recent skewering) and read the text of his “Special Comments.”
Two very reliable web sites (Patterico and Politico) are reporting two different versions of the same basic story: The identity of Ellie Light. From Ben Smith: Well, the mystery may be over. A woman who said her name was, in
The first thing you need to know about “Race,” the new play by David Mamet currently running at the Barrymore Theatre on Broadway, is that it isn’t really about race. Well, not entirely about race. The setting is a conference
The same country that brought us Leni Riefenstahl is now set to deliver Hope: The Obama Musical. I’m serious, they are really doing this. The musical is set to open in Frankfurt on Jan. 17th and, in all fairness, it
Fox News has signed former Vice-Presidential candidate Sarah Palin as a contributor: ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) – Sarah Palin, former Alaska governor and 2008 Republican vice presidential candidate, will take her conservative message to Fox News as a regular commentator, the
Media Matters (for America, they claim) has officially become a parody unto itself. What started as a wonderful (if not Orwellian) dream of a non-profit entity living off of the ample teat of George Soros busily crafting “rapid response” items
As a frequent contributor to Big Hollywood and Big Government, I was so proud to read Andrew Breitbart’s full-throated correction posted front and center at Big Government the other day. I was not proud that we had made an error
Another day, another left-wing slander using computer animation. This time it is aimed at the Tea Party Movement. The only difference: This time, the video is hosted on a web site that YOU are funding! That’s right my fellow racists,
According to Reuters, Dutch authorities have announced that Umar Farouk Abdul Mutallab, the terrorist who penetrated the Dutch security system on Christmas Day on Flight 253 to Detroit, acted alone with no accomplices at the Amsterdam airport. This directly contradicts
For the uninitiated, Steve was the original host of the children’s show “Blue’s Clues.” I have sat through many repeated episodes of Steve hunting down that little puppy’s paw-print clues, and Steve’s performance and interaction with the camera made most
