Posted on March 24, 2013 by Warner Todd Huston

Ted Turner’s son, Teddy, recently appeared on the Steve Malzberg show for a visit and when the topic turned to CNN, his dad’s cable TV network, he didn’t hold back. The network is “pretty much to the left,” Teddy Turner said. The Turner scion then went on to note that because CNN is so far […]

Pamela Geller on the Left’s ‘Stealth Jihad’ on Our Free Speech

Posted on March 22, 2013 by Warner Todd Huston

Famed anti-jihad activist Pamela Geller made a splash with her appearance at the special Breitbart breakout panel, “The Uninvited,” at this year’s Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC). In true Breitbart fashion, Breitbart News–itself a sponsor of the 2013 CPAC–held its own panel and stocked it with some of those voices that were systematically prevented from […]

ABC’s Latest Misleading Gun Poll

Posted on March 18, 2013 by Warner Todd Huston

ABC has released the results of another gun poll claiming that support for background checks at gun shows has “vast public support.” But neither the poll nor ABC’s report notes that background checks already routinely occur at gun shows. The poll focused on the various gun control bills currently coursing through Congress with one question […]

NY Times: The Real Spending Problem Is Tax Breaks

Posted on March 17, 2013 by William Teach

Not actual spending, not $16 trillion in debt, not borrowing 43 cents for every federal dollar spent, not wasting taxpayer tax dollars on pork and projects that should be funded by private entities, not hundreds of billions in cost overruns, not the POTUS using up millions to fly across the country to make a 30 […]

Posted on March 13, 2013March 12, 2013 by Warner Todd Huston

CNN’s Piers Morgan sees no reason why America shouldn’t turn into a nanny state.

Minn. TV News Ignores Facts: Muslims Attacked Christian Church Meeting

Posted on March 8, 2013 by Warner Todd Huston

A Minnesota TV news story perpetrated a perfect example of one-sided “news” coverage especially where it concerns the politically correct treatment of two, innocent, doe-eyed Muslims who, gosh darn it, just want to be loved like you and me. Naturally, the TV station does not report the truth that the two Muslims they laud actually […]

Greens Fret Over Obama Admin Keystone Report

Posted on March 4, 2013 by Warner Todd Huston

The State Department has released its much-anticipated report on the environmental impact of the Keystone Pipeline and, to the alarm of the green lobby, it seems to leave President Obama with little reason to continue delaying construction. The 2,000-page report makes no final recommendation on whether or not to approve construction of the energy project, […]

Perino: When Bush Admin Tried to Slam Bob Woodward, The Left Rallied For Him

Posted on March 3, 2013 by Warner Todd Huston

In an appearance on Fox News, former Bush White House Press Secretary Dana Perino noted that when the Bush team tried to push back against Bob Woodward’s reportage it “failed miserably” because the media rallied behind the iconic reporter. Yet now, after harsh words about Obama, Woodward is being treated like a pariah by that […]

NY Times Trots Out “Austerity” Regarding Sequester

Posted on February 27, 2013 by William Teach

Nowhere in this article, which could have been written by the White House (but, really, this is just the way Liberals think) is it mentioned that Sequestration is simply a slight reduction in the growth of government Austerity Kills Government Jobs as Cuts to Budgets Loom I know, I know, you’re really, really, really broken […]

Obama Fails to Register ‘OrganizingForAction.net,’ Hilariously, Site Re-Directs to NRA Homepage

Posted on February 26, 2013 by Warner Todd Huston

At the beginning of the year, President Barack Obama’s new 501(c)4 political nonprofit, Organizing For Action, was launched with all the usual bells and whistles. But the tech wizards at OFA forgot one important rule in today’s Internet world: Register all the iterations of your website address before someone else does. Now Obama’s team is […]

Visual Aid: The Stupidity of What Constitutes an ‘Assault Weapon’

Posted on February 24, 2013 by Warner Todd Huston

First of all, there is no such thing as an “assault weapon.” But, despite that fact, when half-wit leftists try to define what an “assault weapon” is, all they really end up doing is describing what such a weapon looks like not what the weapon does. Essentially you get this… Note that the two weapons […]

Where Was the Media’s Love for ‘Transparency’ the Last Four Years?

Posted on February 21, 2013 by Greg Campbell

President Obama took yet another vacation last week and while Marie Antoinette Michelle took the kids on a fabulous ski trip in Aspen- her 16th vacation since moving into the White House, Barack went golfing with Tiger Woods in Florida.

S.E. Cupp’s Unhelpful Apostasy

Posted on February 20, 2013February 22, 2013 by Warner Todd Huston

Youthful commentator S.E. Cupp of the lamentable MSNBC recently made some trouble for herself by an ill-considered slam on Rush Limbaugh. Then, she made it worse with a subsequent doubling down on her unhelpful and unnecessary attack. For those unaware, S.E. Cupp is a young, conservative commentator that has been close to Glenn Beck–close as […]

Political consultant, feminist, and Huffington Post blogger Naomi Wolf is in talks to join Al Jazeera, the Qatari-owned news network that purchased Al Gore’s cable network, Current TV.

Dem. Lawmaker: Women Shouldn’t be Allowed to Carry on Campus Because They Don’t Know if They’re Going to be Raped

Posted on February 19, 2013February 19, 2013 by Greg Campbell

Republicans have a nasty habit recently of discussing rape in ludicrous terms. As a general rule, I encourage any candidate, when asked on his position on rape, to simply note that it’s bad and nothing more. Because descending into an odd monologue about rape just isn’t going to help. You see, it’s political suicide… Well, […]

Democrats Want Background Checks… Except When They Don’t

Posted on February 18, 2013 by Warner Todd Huston

One of the main discussions in this ginned up, fact-free anti-gun debate coming from the Democrats and their fellow extreme leftists is that they want “universal background checks” for gun purchases. So, “background checks” are a good idea to left-wingers… but in all cases? As it happens, NO is the answer to that. Democrats don’t […]

Sports Illustrated’s ‘Racist’ Swimsuit Issue

Posted on February 16, 2013 by Warner Todd Huston

Everything is racist these days. Even the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue, apparently. At least that is the latest tempest in a teapot being stirred by our busy race merchants. The website Jezebel is the latest to stir the pot claiming that because SI used locations on all seven continents and featured people in native garb […]

NYT Hails Obama’s ‘Signal’ That Era of ‘Single-Minded Deficit-Cutting Should End’

Posted on February 15, 2013 by Warner Todd Huston

The paltry spending cuts coming out of Congress are no where near enough to balance Washington’s budget, but in his analysis of the President’s State of the Union speech, New York Times writer Mark Landler happily went to pains to note that Obama signaled the end of “the era of single-minded deficit-cutting.” One has to […]

NPR Falsely Claims GOP Invented Sequestration

Posted on February 15, 2013 by Warner Todd Huston

Ahead of the President’s State of the Union speech, taxpayer funded National Public Radio (NPR) tried to help the White House push the false notion that the sequestration budget cut policy was conceived by the Republicans. In truth, it was initiated by Obama and pushed by the Democrat Party. In order to advertise its coverage, […]

Whew! “Marco Rubio’s Water Flap Shall Pass”

Posted on February 14, 2013 by William Teach

Our long national nightmare is over! (Politico) Sen. Marco Rubio’s inopportune case of cotton mouth during his State of the Union response may slow his rapidly rising stock, but will likely have no little lingering impact on his 2016 prospects, Republican operatives said Wednesday. “The water moment did not bother me,” said Republican strategist Bruce […]

Posted on February 12, 2013 by Warner Todd Huston

Dan Rather: Bush AWOL Documents ‘Not Proven’ False

Posted on February 11, 2013February 11, 2013 by Warner Todd Huston

Dan Rather is back to defending the story that essentially got him fired from network television by claiming that the documents he presented in 2004 as proof that George W. Bush went AWOL from the Texas Air National Guard have never been proven to be forgeries. On February 7, Dan Rather hosted a Q&A on […]
