My reflections after Betty’s murder did not stop with the Panthers. I understood better now who they were, yet was puzzled by the way they seemed to operate with impunity.

If your Evangelical Church had a business meeting today, Frank Schaeffer, son of Christian philosopher Francis Schaeffer and owner of the world’s biggest daddy complex has an expression for what went on there—The lunatics running the asylum.

Marc Lamont Hill has responded to my Newsreal post about The O’Reilly Factor’s decision to make him their black in residence and to provide him a whole segment recently to share with us his views of the crisis with Iran. I pointed out that Hill’s expertise, such as it is, is hip-hop culture — the [...]

September 27, 2009 By Leave a Comment
When we had to pick the NewsReal blogger who would be most appropriate to take on Keith Olbermann, MSNBC’s Volcano of Leftist Demagoguery, we immediately knew who the man for the job was: veteran political consultant and FrontPage contributor David Forsmark. As one can see from the six parts in Forsmark’s ongoing series, we clearly [...]

They say you know you’re over the target when you’re drawing flak.
Last week, the George Soros-funded, self-styled media watchdog group Media Matters for America sent out an urgent fund raising email, which read in part:

Why So Many on the Right and the Left Can’t Figure Out How To Deal with Glenn Beck
September 26, 2009 By Leave a Comment
Today one of our commenters, Ben, posted a link to Media Bistro on David Horowitz’s post about the newest installment in the debate with David Frum.

September 26, 2009 By Leave a Comment
Calvin Freiburger wrote a great post the other day responding to my Conservative Chessboard analogy:
