Surprising developments in Great Britain: although many expected the conservative Tories to win the upcoming elections for Parliament, the traditional third party of the country, the Liberal Democrats, are now leading in the polls. The party’s leader Nick Clegg did a wonderful job during the first ever nationally televised debate in England; it gave him [...]
GOP Dominating Dems in Online Media Usage
April 22, 2010 By Leave a Comment
The party of “pale & stale” no more! Okay. Maybe it’s still pale.
According to a report released yesterday by House Minority Leader John Boehner, the GOP is “dominating” Democrats in online media use. If you detect a caveat is on the way, then bully for you: The truth is, Democratic websites outnumber Republicans by 3:2. [...]
Battlin’ Bachmann Worries the Left
April 21, 2010 By Leave a Comment
Last night, Rep. Michelle Bachmann (R-MN) joined Sean Hannity to talk about the hypocrisy of Tea Party demonization, the Democrats’ love affair with government intervention, and the Obama Administration’s support for net neutrality. The segment was solid, but in my opinion didn’t offer anything out of the ordinary. Mediaite’s Frances Martel, however, uses the interview [...]

Our Joseph Klein already did a terrific job of parsing Time Magazine’s Joe Klein’s deranged outburst on the weekend Chris Matthews Show that Sarah Palin and Glenn beck were guilty of “sedition.”
(It’s gotta be tough to keep up with making sure that people know the difference between Joe and Joseph. I remember the first time [...]
Thompson and Pataki Won’t Run but GOP Can Still Take Senate
April 17, 2010 By Leave a Comment
In disappointing news for Republicans, Tommy Thompson and George Pataki have decided against running for Senate in Wisconsin and New York respectively. The latter appears to have turned down the challenge so he can lay the groundwork for a 2012 presidential bid—which shows that Pataki is so out-of-touch with reality that he did his party [...]
Amateur Hour in Left-Wing Activism
April 16, 2010 By Leave a Comment
Leftist tea-party smears are getting desperate—so desperate, in fact, that they’re now deploying a crude variation of “if you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em.” The other day, the world trembled in fear at the awesome might of Jason Levin’s “Crash the Tea Party,” a group of moonbats who publicly announced their intentions to infiltrate Tax [...]
Obama Mocks Tea-Party Protestors While Taking Advantage of Tax Loopholes For Himself
April 16, 2010 By Leave a Comment
As usual, the mainstream media plays down the Tea Party protests except when it tries to paint them in a bad light. For example, the Tax Day protests in Washington, D.C. were buried on p. 17 of The New York Times, right above an article reporting that the Obamas paid $1,792,414 in federal income taxes [...]
Sabotaging the Tea Parties

The Alinsky-ite Left declares war on limited-government activists.
“Keith Olbermann is not a black person.” Will this woman please run for office?
Nathanial Stuart has done something so remarkable, so groundbreaking that no MSNBC reporter could even fathom the sheer novelty of the idea: Have a conversation with an actual black person at a Tea Party protest.
Stuart has produced an excellent video of candid yet illuminating comments by “conservatives of color” who were present at the Washington [...]
