Can MSNBC’s Chris Matthews make himself any more of a laughing stock? He’s having fantasies that if he were Obama he’d “marry” Bill Clinton! This is serious. One has to wonder why people like Mathews have any credibility at all,

CNN’s latest RNC coverage is about how an important sector of Tampa is readying for the convention. What important sector is under the CNN microscope? Tampa’s strip clubs, naturally. Of all the important stories that CNN could pick to investigate,

This surprises many of my conservative friends, but I like Michelle Obama. Though I disagree with her nanny-state attacks on the same food her husband always seems to eat whenever he’s away from her, I think she’s a lovely and

Most “journalists” like to pretend they are separate from mere politics, but apparently MSNBC’s Touré doesn’t. He isn’t merely observing and reporting on President Obama, but is part of Obama’s team. This is clear by his on-air Freudian slip delivered

Left-wing, British columnist Owen Jones was not a fan of George W. Bush. While this is no surprise for as screaming a left-winger, what is a surprise is that he has decided that President Obama is no improvement over the

Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-IL 9) failed to appear at a protest that she helped organize Tuesday night in Evanston, Illinois, wherein demonstrators delivered petitions to Bain Capital’s local office. Despite Schakowsky’s failure to show, Huffington Post is now claiming Schakowsky, a co-chair

In what appears to be a preview of the race-obsessed, biased “news reporting” of the future, two college students, AJ Vicens & Natasha Khan, manage to further the partisan agenda of vote fraud deniers while languishing over imagined racial injustice.

There’s no question the Ryan pick and the ensuing ten days that saw presumptive GOP nominee Mitt Romney on offense has a lot to do with his positive trending in a number of national and swing state polls. But even

Only because it’s my job, I follow hundreds of mainstream media types on Twitter and all day long watch broadcasts of MSNBC and CNN. The fact that this makes me the least informed person in the country is for another

Once again we get the hypocrites on the left claiming that conservative women aren’t real women, after the decision by Augusta National Golf Club to accept Condoleezza Rice and South Carolina billionaire Darla Moore as their first female members. On

President Obama’s team took misleading politics to a new low yesterday, vilifying pro-life Republicans and the GOP’s longstanding platform language on the sanctity of life. Yesterday the Platform Committee of the Republican Party went through the GOP platform, as the

A recent report has revealed that in 2009 Obama’s Department of Labor used Obama stimulus bucks to fund advertising on MSNBC. The advertisements were created to promote Obama’s so-called “green training” job programs and were handled by the PR firm

Above and beyond partisan politics, as an American, it’s been more than a little disturbing to watch the media readily accept being lied to by the President of the United States and his top campaign staffers. The media knows he’s lying.

Because I took a vacation last week, I’m a little behind on this debate. But since it’s likely to rage through November, the argument remains relevant and there’s simply never a bad time to expose the dishonest media. Also, yesterday

I don’t know what else to call this, other than a lie. Should I play nice and say it sounds like the President is being just a little disingenuous? Perhaps he didn’t know what was on his own web site.

On Saturday, August 18, New York Times screedist Maureen Dowd turned in a particularly unhinged performance that just screams to be examined. MoDowd’s Ryan-itis is so advanced, she might just need professional help to get over it. MoDowd begins her
