Nicholas D. Kristof writes today in The New York Times a column lashing out at the critics of Obamacare.  He compares us to the opponents of Social Security and Medicare whom, he said, used the same “bogymen” arguments about socialist programs, killing jobs etc.  He said that those members of Congress who “flinch” and let [...]

The New York Times has defended the Obama administration’s unconscionable decision to try Khalid Shaikh Mohammed and four of his al Qaeda cohorts in a federal court in Manhattan under the rules applicable to everyday criminal defendants. 
Aside from the bogus constitutional law arguments claiming that such trials are required, which I discussed in yesterday’s blog, the argument [...]

The left has a particuarly hard time with conservative women, whom they regard as apostates from the radical feminist cause. As discussed on both “The O’Reilly Factor” and “Hannity’s America” last night, independent-minded women like Sarah Palin and Minnesota Congresswoman Michele Bachmann get under the leftists’ skin.

How else can O’Reilly explain his decision to bring back the hip [...]

Why does Bill O’Reilly continue to provide Al Sharpton a platform for his race-baiting?  To show how “fair and balanced” he can be?
OReilly made it easy for Sharpton by posing the issue this way:
Why is the House Ethics Committee investigating seven different African-American lawmakers?
Sharpton argued that race must be involved, given all the attention focused particularly [...]

Dennis Miller likened President Obama’s coattail effect on “The Factor” last night to that of a “naked midget.”  I will stick with the less politically incorrect  ”emperor’s new clothes” model.   Either way, the election results in New Jersey and Virginia were a disaster for Obama.   While his personal likeability appears to be nearly intact, President Obama’s leftist policies [...]
