Rather Bizarre: Dan and Watermellongate


Rhonda Robinson did a nice job of detailing Dan Rather’s strange outing on the Chris Matthews show last weekend.  The lamestream media has ignored something that would have gotten any Republican run out of town on a rail when Dan said:
RATHER: [Barack Obama is] “…an ineffective leader who couldn’t sell watermelons if you gave him [...]

CNN’s Taste for Instant Coffee (and the Left)


Did you ever wonder how the obscure Tea-Party-take-off “Coffee Party” suddenly had it’s own professional website and a hundred thousand facebook fans? Yeah. Neither did CNN. Whereas CNN couldn’t be bothered to acknowledge the burgeoning Tea Party gatherings of family people concerned over taxes and ever-intrusive federal government until they sent a rabid correspondent out [...]

The Audacity of Nope: Chris Matthews Thinks Scott Brown Should Wait Untill His Career is Over to Write a Book—Unlike Barack Obama


The New Mark Twain?
Newly minted Senator Scott Brown has been offered a book deal, and MSNBC’s Chris Matthews thinks he should just say no:
MATTHEWS: Time for the “Sideshow.”We learned today that Massachusetts Senator Scott Brown, who has been a senator for just 35 days, has a book deal.

Cynthia Yockey of The Feminist Hawks’ Nest has today’s NRB’s Book Club recommendation.

Joe Biden’s Soft Anti-Semitism


If you’re Israel, there’s nothing like being lectured on your domestic policy by a man who thinks that the United States and France kicked Hezbollah out of Lebanon.  Joe Biden is probably the least-informed man in American politics when it comes to the Arab-Israeli conflict.  That may be because he, like President Obama, want to [...]

Biden’s Dinner Diplomacy


As a presidential candidate, Obama won plaudits from media and political sophisticates for his promise to meet “without preconditions” with America’s enemies. This was to be a break with the putative “cowboy diplomacy” of the Bush years. Obama didn’t get around to explaining how his administration would conduct diplomacy with America’s allies, but now we [...]

Obama’s Thugs Take Eric Massa Out To The Woodshed


Did former Rep. Eric Massa (D-N.Y.) whose resignation came swiftly after he was accused of –well, actually, I’m not even really sure what he was accused of– do anything wrong?
Time will tell but right now it appears the greatest sin the newly ousted congressman committed was daring to disagree with ObamaCare.
And for this grievous offense against [...]

Thiessen Vs. Stewart: Was Stewart Any More Rude Than Normal?


So I just watched Marc Thiessen’s appearance on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, if for no other reason than to watch some bloodshed. Thiessen, as the author of Courting Disaster: How the CIA Kept America Safe and How Barack Obama is Inviting the Next Attack had to have taken some major doses of xanax [...]

Cannibalism: Does It Have to Be All Or Nothing?


On August 16th, 2008, Candidates Barack Obama and John McCain answered the questions of Rich Warren, Pastor of Saddleback Church. During his now-famous, four and a half minute “Abortion is above my pay grade” diatribe, the President stuttered the following:
“The goal for me right now…and this is where I think we can find some common [...]

Don’t mistake the Left’s very different vision of America.
