AP Bias: Name That Party Blasts Repubs, Leaves Dems Unnamed in Stories

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

One of the many ways that the Associated Press lends its support to Democrats and leftists in its political reporting is often evident in its stories on political scandals. The most common assist the AP gives to Democrats is to somehow forget to mention that a politician in the news because of criminal activity or […]

Obama’s Healthcare Give Away to Union Special Interests

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

One of Obamacare’s new rules states that if your employer finds it necessary to change healthcare providers to a more cost effective plan they will lose their federal health plan exemptions. This will cause employers to drop employees from health plans forcing workers onto government sponsored plans. So much for Obama’s hoary idea that you […]

Back in 2009 a video compilation of clips of impeached Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich was posted on YouTube. Today folks are realizing that this video features Blago claiming that the reason prosecutors went after him was to get information on President Obama.

Princess Leia Found Her Darth Vader: It’s You and Me

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Well, she’s a former alcoholic, drug addict, washed up actor, shock therapy patient (no, really) and one-time princess to the universe, but now Carrie “Princess Leia” Fisher can add one more calumny to her long list of off-kilter, personality deficits: she’s a “teabagger” hater. So, she’s got that going for her, which is nice. Hawking […]

 

New York Teachers Union Has Branch in Florida?

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

The outrage of union activities never ceases to amaze. From the Education Week blog we find that the United Federation of Teachers (UFT), the teachers union of New York, spends almost $200,000 a year of its member’s dues money on an office in Boca Raton, Florida! As Ed Week drolly says, “That’s not peanuts for […]

 

Oh, Snap! WH Looks To Pass Regulations So Employers Can’t Drop Their Health Insurance Plans

Posted on by William Teach

“If you like your health insurance, yada yada yada” The White House on Monday outlined broad new rules designed to prevent employers from dropping health insurance benefits for their workers or shifting huge new costs onto them. The regulations empower the administration to revoke the so-called grandfather status of businesses that shift “significant” new burdens […]

 

American Journalism, Brought to you By The Democrat Party

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

When someone says “journalist” do you have a picture of a fedora-sporting, cigar chomping, agitator with jaded mien and independent mind, a man stubbornly outside the political establishment looking in and eyeing it all with suspicion? Do you get a flash of a writer that stands in opposition to entrenched powers, one looking out for […]

 

Our ‘Unions are Bad for America’ Theme is Resonating

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

For those of you that have come to the blog often, there is a constant theme: unions are antithetical to good government. We’ve been saying this here for years, of course, but over this campaign season I think that meme is beginning to gain real traction because stories echoing this sentiment are everywhere these days.

Hey, Did You Know Jerry Brown Compared The Whitman Campaign To The Nazi’s?

Posted on by William Teach

Probably not. Since Jerry Brown is a Democrat and Meg Whitman a Republican, all his comment earned was, for the most part, brief blurbs in the California media. Imagine the reverse. That’s right, it would be wall to wall coverage Jerry Brown’s campaign for California governor continues to suffer fallout from off-the-cuff comments he made […]

 

A Wonderful Example of the Left’s Fascism at Chicagoland Radio and Media Message Board

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

The fascist way that the left deals with opinion differing from its own is just one of the many reasons why the left in America today is so hypocritical. Aside from the oppressive aire of our Universities and colleges no better example of the quashing of opposing views can be seen than on Internet message […]

 

Unions Preventing a Timely Cleanup of Oil in the Gulf?

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Joseph Carafano of the Heritage Foundation has made an interesting observation and wonders if President Obama is allowing unions to make it harder to effect a timely and effective cleanup of the BP oil spill in the Gulf? The offer of aid from foreign companies has been refused by the Obama administration and the Jones […]

 

Black SC pol: Greene May Have Won Dem Primary ‘Because He Is Black’

Posted on by Sister Toldjah

The clueless SC Democrat machine continues to try and make excuses for how the unknown Alvin Greene got chosen as their US Senate nominee, in spite of the fact that Greene didn’t have any campaign contributions and did no campaigning: What also mystified Democrats across the state is how Greene managed to win without campaigning.

Tina Brown Says “Wingnut” Women Blow To Feminism. I say, What Feminism?

Posted on by Lori Ziganto

(Originally posted at NewsReal) Sorry, Tina Brown, but feminism is already dead. And I say, “You’re welcome.” As perpetual children, you self-avowed feminists may not thank us yet. You may continue to stomp and whine and throw your little tantrums, petulantly holding your mouths closed to the icky vegetables known as truth, personal responsibility and […]

 

Obamacare: Eliminating the Poor and Elderly’s Last Resort to Life and Health

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Many left-wingers complain that our healthcare system as it stands leaves out the poor, elderly, and those least able to care for themselves. They say that because of this inequity private medical care should be eliminated and government should take over that role in society. That way, they claim, all will be treated equally and […]

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

If you are interested in the rule of law, if you are someone who upholds the Constitution, or someone that believes in the sovereignty of America’s borders, Chicago Alderman Danny Solis wants you to know that you are a Nazi. That’s right Moreno thinks you are “wrong,” and you are “evil” if you want to […]

 

Video: 1969–The Death of Modernism

Posted on by Ed Driscoll

The 1960s began with a presidential election between conservative cold warrior Richard Nixon…and the surprisingly conservative cold warrior John F. Kennedy. In terms of the similarity between the two candidates, and the public they represented, this was a high point in national unity. The assassination of JFK began a process that ultimately shattered that unity. During the course of the 1960s, Americans witnessed the split between the liberalism of FDR, Harry Truman, JFK and LBJ, and the rise of the punitive New Left that emerged in the wake of President Kennedy’s assassination. As we explore in the latest edition of our Silicon Graffiti video blog, the alpha and the omega of those two forms of American liberalism came less than a month apart, in the summer of 1969…

 

Video: Why Do Fannie And Freddie Execs Make More Than our Generals?

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Representative Peter Roskam tries to offer an amendment that makes sure that the executives of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac don’t make more money than the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Naturally the Democrats would rather pay millions to the executives that are still running Freddie and Fannie into the ground than accept […]

 

Teachers Union Extorts Parents for Campaign Cash

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

The indispensable Mark Hemingway of the Washington Examiner recently caught another union outrage. This time it’s the teachers union in New Jersey trying to extort cash from parents directly, as opposed to merely extorting cash from parents through their taxes. Hemingway alerts us to a New Jersey parent that was aghast that the NJ teachers […]

 

Primary Races Show Palin’s Pull; Left Focuses on Palin’s Breasts

Posted on by Lori Ziganto

(Cross-posted from NewsReal) Rachel Larimore, at Slate’s Double X, asked about the primary wins last night, “Where is the rah-rah sisterhood?” The overriding theme of Tuesday night’s primary coverage was that it was a big night for female politicians. But there is a noticeable dearth of rah-rah sisterhood going on (though the National Review is […]

 

Pro-Law Breaker Web Site Posts Ill. Minuteman Project Director’s Home Address

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

In an example of the most extreme left-wing tactics, a website that supports illegal immigration has publicized the home address of the Director of the Illinois Minuteman Project, Rosanna Pulido. Apparently this website intends to try and harass Pulido at her home, a tactic that we recently saw from thug union members protesting in front […]
