From Breaking News moments ago: Congressman Wu is a Democrat. Wu is currently embroiled in allegations of an “unwanted sexual encounter.” Not long after they deleted their Tweet and posted a new update, identical to the last except for the

From … MSNBC. TA DA! Also, media types need to stop presenting Marcus Bachmann’s clinic as Gayz Awayz R Us. It’s a clinic that offers therapy, period. An individual sought out help specifically to stop being gay. A therapist at

According to Cenk, his numbers at MSNBC were good but the management expressed other concerns. Or perhaps the more accurate way to say it is, the management relayed the concerns of others. This comes in two parts. I’m going to

Bless his heart. Some dude who voiced commercials for an insurance company, and was once apparently an extra in some movies, is still angry that he was canned after leaving a rage-filled voicemail with FreedomWorks in a one-consent state. (Before

While reading through newspaper stories about Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz’s cowardly attacks on Congressman Allen West earlier in the week, I came across an even more repulsive attack on him from a Palm Beach Post columnist named Frank Cerabino: the

Bill Maher recently complained that “We can’t throw around the word [sexist] just to stop people like me from pointing out that Michele Bachmann, now running second for the Republican presidential nomination, is a dangerous nincompoop.” Hmm, sort of sounds

I get it! Media Matters for America (MMFA) is being paid by George Soros and other progressive money-men to make sure the progressive point of view is protected. That’s why they work so hard to fight the few conservative media

Exchanging one aimless rambler for another, albeit exponentially more incendiary one. From Media Bistro: Now TVNewser hears Uygur may be moved out of the 6pm hour, possibly to be replaced by Al Sharpton. When the host changes happened earlier this

Yesterday, CNN once again gave “Dr.” John Boyd a platform to promote the fraudulent Pigford “Black Famers” settlement and once again, he used the public airwaves to accuse a Congressman of being racist. This time, Boyd attacked a woman who’s

Who knew MSNBC had standards? It appears that their strategy of throwing wet noodles at the wall hasn’t worked because the long-winded incoherent one slid back onto the floor. Cenk Uygur talks like Keanu Reeves and says “whoa” a lot

The good news is that Politico’s Andy Barr is now going to work out in the open against Palin and the Right, as opposed to what he’s been doing since 2008, and that’s the exact same thing at Politico under

ABC’s Brian Ross claimed that Michele Bachmann’s staff pushed him around on July 19 at a campaign appearance. I know, I know, you are waiting for the pity party to start. In a fit of wild hyperbole, Ross called his

Browsing Gateway Pundit today, I ran across Michele Bachmann’s response to the hit piece that accused the Minnesota Congresswoman of suffering from “stress-related” chronic migraine headaches that “incapacitate” her and which she combats with “heavy pill use.” I fully expected

Actually yes, yes he does. While losing an economic debate with Rep. Al Brooks, Contessa Brewer throws down the “well do you have a degree in economics?” card. [youtube 5mtQyEd-zS4 nolink] Ed Morrissey notes: Brooks actually has three degrees: political

Keith Olbermann lost his mind on Allen West yesterday evening on his program and doubled-down this afternoon on Twitter. The irony is that the insults he cast upon Rep. Allen West were, according to his own measurement of offensiveness, more

This morning CNN gave a platform to John Boyd, President of the Black Farmer’s Union, so he could claim that Michele Bachmann’s criticism of Pigford fraud is based on racism, not fraud. “Do you feel that she’s racist?” asked the
