Posted on July 23, 2010July 23, 2010 by Lori Ziganto

Originally posted at NewsReal The most insidious form of media bias is deciding what to cover and, more importantly, what not to cover.: The revelations uncovered by The Daily Caller in regard to Journolist have been damning on that front. The latest involve Sarah Palin and while anyone with a speck of honesty already realized […]

Posted on July 23, 2010July 21, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

Education Next undertook for the first time an effort to find out how much of their members dues money that teachers unions spent on political action. The results are very interesting. The analysis discovered that, “national teachers unions and their state affiliates spent more than $100 per teacher in five states, with Oregon at the […]

Obama Forces Doctors to Snitch to Feds on Patient’s Weight

Posted on July 23, 2010July 21, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

New federal regulations issued by Obama’s administration will require doctors to record their patient’s body mass index (BMI) ratio. No longer will your weight problems be a matter between you and your doctor. Thanks to Obama, now your doctor will be required by law to snitch to the feds on how fat you are. Like […]

Obama Parody Brilliance: Same as it Ever Was… After the Oils Gone

Posted on July 22, 2010July 22, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

This is some brilliant parody of the Talking Heads song “Same As It Ever Was.” This one lampoons Obama’s sad reaction to the Gulf oil spill. Smashing work, from The PolitiZoid Channel. They also gave us this one… Love it. (H/T HotAir.com and alhouse.blogspot.com)

Social Security Staggers Toward Collapse

Posted on July 22, 2010July 22, 2010 by Dave Blount

Liberals often point to Social Security as the definitive accomplishment of collectivism in America. Sure it required their idol Franklin Roosevelt to set himself up as a dictator and steamroll over the Constitution, but it was worth it to guarantee that no one needs to take responsibility for their own retirement plans. Few realize just […]

Jury Damage Award Could Close Calif. Healthcare Facilities

Posted on July 22, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

When companies are found to have violated regulations that govern their industry, is it right that a jury of non-experts can award damages the amount of which will wipe the company off the face of the earth? That is a question that has been raised in a case recently decided against Skilled Healthcare LLC of […]

Top Ten most Left-Biased American Journalists – #2: Joe Klein, Time Magazine

Posted on July 22, 2010July 21, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

Second place looms large and it is quite an honorable — or maybe onerous — award on our top ten most left-biased working American journalists list. Amusingly our number two guy even graduated from a school that foretold his future work. From the bowels of New York’s exclusive Hackley School comes our number two most […]

New Captain America Movie: Dear America, I’m Just Not That Into You

Posted on July 22, 2010July 21, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

A few months ago I wrote an expose on Marvel’s Captain America comics number 602 in which the writers and artists of the book portrayed Captain America saying that Tea Party groups in America are racist and dangerous. It looks like the makers of next year’s Captain America movie in Hollywood have taken that Cappy-against-America […]

Shirley Sherrod: “I’m A Victim Of Racism”

Posted on July 22, 2010 by William Teach

Yesterday, I had a second post ready to go about about racism, which included a bit from Ben Smith’s article about Obama being pretty lame on the subject (Melissa Clouthier covers that story this morning.) However, since there were several other posts about racism up at Right Wing News (I cross post the first two […]

AEI: More Unions Means Fewer Jobs

Posted on July 22, 2010July 21, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

In April Lee Ohanian of the American Enterprise Institute published a paper on the Employee Free Choice Act (EFCA) that is a must read. But this month he published a shorter piece that is just as interesting. In it, Ohanian claims that if we increased unionism as the Obamaites want to do, we’d actually lose […]

The Race Ruse: Racism Hasn’t Been About Race For A Long Time Now

Posted on July 22, 2010July 21, 2010 by Melissa Clouthier

Racism has been about this: Mary Frances Berry Professor of American Social Thought and History, U. Penn. : Tainting the tea party movement with the charge of racism is proving to be an effective strategy for Democrats. There is no evidence that tea party adherents are any more racist than other Republicans, and indeed many […]

The Crazed Sex Poodle Has Apparently Tried To Hump More Than One Masseuse’s Leg

Posted on July 21, 2010July 21, 2010 by John Hawkins

Back when the “Al Gore, Giggling Crazed Sex Poodle” massage that almost turned into a sexual assault scandal broke, there were some questions about whether the masseuse was telling the truth. Granted, her story sounded plausible — and creepy. But let’s face it: In this 15 minutes of fame, reality show, lawsuit lottery culture, you […]

Top Ten most Left-Biased American Journalists – #3: Paul Krugman, The New York Times

Posted on July 21, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

Number three on our list almost violates the criteria that I set up in the first piece I wrote for this series. I said then that denizens of the Old Media that are too much a “cartoon of journalism” would not be included on my list. Yet despite my dismissal of such Old Media clowns, […]

Why are We Suprised?

Posted on July 21, 2010July 21, 2010 by Heather Bachman

Just around MemoGate I was an aspiring reporter who was prepping for a career in investigative journalism. In my spare time, I had a political Internet radio program called The Conservative Watchdog. This was the only place I allowed my political views to surface, especially as a consistent stringer reporter and intern.: While at a […]

ABC News: All You Folks Against Illegals Are Raaaaacist

Posted on July 21, 2010 by William Teach

Once again, a media outlet builds a cute little strawman argument regarding the illegal immigration debate. They know they do not have a leg to stand on, and it would not be particularly popular, if they tried their real argument, namely, that they are in favor of saying “screw the law, we want new voters.” […]

Top Ten most Left-Biased American Journalists – #4: Chuck Todd, NBC

Posted on July 20, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

All week we’ve been exploring America’s ten most left-biased working journalists and now we come to spot number four on the list. And so, for his close attention to pushing the spin and as one of the most active members of the Old Media’s Obama Butt Covering squad, we are pleased to award the number […]

Obama’s FDR-Like Bait and Switch

Posted on July 20, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

Remember when Barack Hussein Obama first became president and the left-wing Old Media universally indulged the claim that he was “just like FDR“? Of late the Old Media has backed off that hyperbolic statement, but at least in a single incident, Obama has proven indeed to be just like FDR. The similarity entails laws about […]

Calif Video: Union Goons Start Pushing and Hitting Videographers

Posted on July 20, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

This is how “nurses” act? The kind, gentle folks of the California Nurses Association are seen in this video intimidating, pushing and knocking around some videographers at the union’s recent pro-Democrat rally in California. Mike Griffing is the bearded fellow acting the thug at the end of the video. But he isn’t just some run-of-the-mill […]

Shirley Sherrod Resigns After Racist Remarks

Posted on July 20, 2010 by William Teach

So, one of the big stories from Monday was the racist remarks by USDA official Shirley Sherrod to the NAACP, highlighted by Big Government. And now A black USDA official in Georgia has resigned after publicly admitting she didn’t help a white man trying to save his farm to the “full force” of her power […]

Silent Jews, Again: When Will Leftists Realize That Unbelief Is A Belief?

Posted on July 19, 2010 by Melissa Clouthier

The distressing phenomenon of refusing to call an objective evil, evil, permeates the leftist culture. Just last night the Twitter blogger Queen of Spain got in an argument with a couple conservative friends Brooks Bayne and Beregond about La Raza which means, literally, The Race, over whether they were a racist organization. Even after being […]

Top Ten most Left-Biased American Journalists – #5: Cynthia Tucker, Atlanta Journal-Constitution

Posted on July 19, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

Welcome once again to our top ten most left-biased working journalist list and now it’s time for number five in the countdown. As we begin our downward slope to the number one most biased, it is fitting that we come to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Cynthia Tucker as our fifth worst, most biased American journo. Unlike […]

A Misleading Story on ‘Facts’

Posted on July 19, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

On July 11, the Boston Globe featured a story on “facts” and how people just don’t seem to want to hear them when they intersect with closely held political opinions. The story has some interesting points to make, points that seem quite sensible, but there is no escaping the fact that the whole story is […]

For All Teachers’ Whining, Almost Half of Chicago Area Teachers Make $100K a Year

Posted on July 19, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

As the Obama economy tumbles farther and farther down into depression, as states begin to face the reality of a budget crunch that can only be solved by layoffs of public employees, and as teachers find they are open to those layoffs, we commonly hear teachers claim that they are perennially underpaid and don’t deserve […]

Top Ten most Left-Biased American Journalists – #6: Rick Sanchez, CNN

Posted on July 18, 2010July 18, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

Continuing with our top ten most left-biased journalists working in America today, at number six we feature the redoubtable… or is it just doubtable… Rick Sanchez of CNN. Let’s face it, no list of Old Media left-wingers could be complete without the Ricker appearing on it somewhere! Any casual observer would conclude that Sanchez has […]

Unions Holding Up Cash for the Troops

Posted on July 18, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

Last week the Washington Times had a story that should enrage every true American. The Democrat Congress is allowing Big Labor’s needs to come before the needs of our troops. The supplemental budget that Congress is considering is supposed to be about funding the troops and their efforts in Iraq and Afghanistan, but Democrats are […]

Fish Wrap Frets About Socialists Patrolling The Arizona Border

Posted on July 18, 2010 by William Teach

The Times gives it the old liberal try in linking legitimate concerned groups with a kook fringe (leftist) group, attempting to make them all look bad: Militia With Neo-Nazi Ties Patrols Arizona Desert Minutemen groups, a surge in Border Patrol agents and a tough new immigration law are not enough for a reputed neo-Nazi who […]

Top Ten most Left-Biased American Journalists – #7: Howard Fineman, Newsweek

Posted on July 17, 2010July 17, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

As we continue our Summer series of the most left-biased journalists working in the Old Media today it’s time for number seven on the list. We’ve done Cable TV, we’ve done a wire service, and we’ve done a newspaper, so now it’s time to turn our attention to the wonderful world of magazines where we […]

Noblesse Oblige: Obama’s Dog Gets Own Plane on Vacation Trip

Posted on July 17, 2010July 17, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

The Morning Sentinel, a small paper from the state of Maine, has a travelogue story of the Obama’s vacation in and about Maine today. It has a very interesting little tidbit in it that should enrage every American. It is something that really shows Barack Obama’s arrogance and his obviously assumed air of noblesse oblige. […]

The Tangled Web Woven of America’s Worst Enemies

Posted on July 16, 2010 by Dave Blount

No one gets lonely among the radicals now running the show from Washington; everybody dances with everybody else. The same Justice Department shysters who protect the New Black Panther Party have gone to bat for al Qaeda, while the NBPP praises Osama bin Laden. Similarly the NAACP, which Obama’s Bitter Half recently helped whip into […]

History is Hard. For Rep Sheila Jackson-Lee

Posted on July 16, 2010 by Lori Ziganto

Actually, not just history is hard for Congresswoman Jackson-Lee (D-TX). It appears as if thinking itself is rather difficult for her. After watching this, I couldn’t decide if I was wiping away tears of laughter or tears of dismay at the state of our alleged representatives in Congress. Via RedState: Oh, my. Representative Sheila Jackson-Lee […]
