Time Magazine: Hummer, Model T Some of ‘Worst Cars of All Time’

Posted on February 10, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

When you are asked what is the “worst car of all time,” what first runs through your head? The Le Car, the Corvair, maybe the Edsel? Cars that had horrible sales records, bad safety or engineering records or were just all around failures? Aren’t these the sort of cars that first runs through your head? […]

Maryland’s Toxic Teachers Union

Posted on February 10, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

We all know the drill, right? Unions curry favor with compliant politicians, the unions then donate campaign cash to them hoping for political favors later down the line. Yes, that’s the drill… unless you are the Montgomery County, Maryland teachers union. See, in that case candidates are expected to pay the union for its favors, […]

CBS Loses Loving Feeling, Exposes True Meaning Of Obama’s Bipartisanship Call

Posted on February 10, 2010February 10, 2010 by William Teach

As each month of Jimmy Carter’s second term passes (it might actually be an insult to Jimmy Carter to make that comparison), the apparatus of state is losing its hold on the state run media. Much like we saw in the dissolution of the Soviet Union, the media is becoming more independent of the talking […]

How Media Chooses Words Adds to Bias

Posted on February 9, 2010February 9, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

The Politico had a story about Big Labor penned by Jeanne Cummings, the reporter famed for going after Sarah Palin’s Party purchased wardrobe during the 2008 presidential campaign, that was an object lesson in Old Media bias. Her piece headlined “Labor helps kill its own top priority” is a great example of using language to […]

Why Unions Are Dangerous in Education

Posted on February 8, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

One would think that a teacher that had 30 some years ago allegedly impregnated a 16-year-old student, a few years later sexually accosted two 12-year-old students, and was accused of molesting yet another student four years after that, would be out on his ear never to teach or be allowed around children again. But the […]

Frank Rich Calls The Right Bigots For Failing To Discuss DADT

Posted on February 7, 2010February 7, 2010 by William Teach

Remember when Obama called for the repeal of Don’t Ask Don’t Tell? Remember how it was discussed briefly, then most moved on? Yeah, us folks on the right are bigots because we didn’t discuss it enough, says Frank Rich: Smoke the Bigots Out of the Closet A funny thing happened after Adm. Mike Mullen called […]

Hannah Giles Responds to Bob Beckel Calling Her a Ho

Posted on February 7, 2010 by Lori Ziganto

Even though Hannah Giles is younger, way younger, sigh, than I am, I want to be her when I grow up.: Best. Smackdown. Ever. For those who didn’t see the show, the creepy Bob Beckel called Hannah Giles, Queen of the awesome ACORN take-down, a Ho during his Monday night appearance on “Hannity.” In case you […]

Scott Lee Cohen: Case in Point How Chicago Media Covers for Criminal Democrats

Posted on February 6, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

Well, the Chicago controlled Illinois media has done it again. It’s allowed another unsavory Democrat candidate with criminal propensities to slide by unnoticed and to be placed before the voters un-exposed as the low-end sort of fellow he is. And, just like clockwork, this drug addled nut has been elevated to nominee by the Democrat […]

Antimilitary Moonbat Ted Rall Headed to Afghanistan

Posted on February 2, 2010 by Dave Blount

Moonbats are always willing to believe the worst of our troops. For example, liberal icon Keith Olbermann led his viewers to think that former Arizona Cardinal Pat Tillman was killed by friendly fire deliberately, supposedly for supporting Hanoi John Kerry. But deep down, they know who the good guys are. Otherwise why would antimilitary moonbat […]

Where’s the Outrage: 1 Year Later, Gitmo Not Closed

Posted on February 2, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

One of the first things that Barack Obama did after being swept into office on the wings of “hopenchange” was to sign an executive order that would close the terrorist detainee facility at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. President Obama gave a one-year deadline after which he triumphantly informed us the facility would be closed. Well, we […]

Obama’s Aide David Axelrod, Portrait of a Demagogue

Posted on February 1, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

This weekend Obama adviser David Axelrod gave us a perfect example of the art of empty demagoguery. Comments made by Axelrod concerning Obama’s state of the union speech shows an over statement meant to mask the truth in order to evoke sympathy for his boss, the President. Sadly, the truth is the victim here. The […]

These Two Women Could Turn Me Into a Misogynist

Posted on January 31, 2010January 31, 2010 by Lori Ziganto

Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar are an utter embarrassment to my gender. I find them offensive, as a woman. Idiocy, in action: From: NewsBusters: On HLN’s Joy Behar Show on Thursday, Joy Behar and Whoopi Goldberg gave a racial explanation for Chris Matthews’ recent “I forgot he was black” remark about President Obama. Goldberg cracked that […]

Sulzberger, Coordinate! Sulzberger, Coordinate!

Frank Rich describes John McCain as “the unpatriotic opposition” in the US Senate. But since when is that a bad thing in the eyes of your average Timesman?

Stick a Cuckoo Fork in Chris Matthews; He’s Done

Posted on January 31, 2010January 31, 2010 by Lori Ziganto

I told y’all that tingle up his leg was moving into his brain — or what passes for one. Watch the video. All I have to say, really, is: Dude. As your good buddy and frequent guest contributor on MSNBC, : Janeane Garofalo would say:: Your racism is totally showing. Straight up: “…I was trying to think […]

On MSNBC, Andrew Breitbart: One. David Shuster: Less Than Zero

Posted on January 30, 2010January 30, 2010 by Lori Ziganto

Actually, Andrew Breitbart has way more than just one under his belt, but I’m only referring to the throw-down on MSNBC just the other day. Okay, I suppose it can’t really be called a throw-down, as it isn’t a fair fight when one of the participants is, you know, intellectually-challenged. : David Shuster isn’t the brightest […]

Chris Matthews & What He Saw

Posted on January 28, 2010 by Melissa Clouthier

First read what Chris Matthews says: I was trying to think about who he was tonight. It’s interesting; he is post-racial, by all appearances. I forgot he was black tonight for an hour. He’s gone a long way to become a leader of this country and past so much history in just a year or […]

‘For The Children’, Unless They are Republican, Natch

Posted on January 24, 2010January 24, 2010 by Lori Ziganto

Proving that their hypocrisy extends beyond Faux-Feminism, some women on the Left are now revealing that For the Children ™ is also “just words”. You see, it’s totally cool to make fun of a politician’s children now, as long as you think their Mom or Dad is icky. This disturbing, yet eye-opening trend, really began […]

Begun, The Late Night Wars Have…

Posted on January 24, 2010 by Ed Driscoll

A new video explores NBC’s late night imbroglio with the style of Ken Burns’ epic, if portentous Civil War miniseries.

Bye-Bye Miss ‘Air America’ Pie

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

Yes,: Air America has finally bitten the dust. Another not really shocking story, although they managed to last a lot longer than I ever imagined that they would. Here is their press release (as excerpted by : Hot Air): It is with the greatest regret, on behalf of our Board, that we must announce that Air […]

Least Shocking Bloggity Ever: John Edwards, You ARE The Baby’s Father

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

I know.: Totally shocking, huh? And by totally shocking, I mean so obvious that even Perez Hilton could have figured it out. From : Hot Air (they also have video, if you need to purge): Former presidential candidate John Edwards abandoned his long denial that he had fathered a child during an affair with a campaign aide […]

If Paul Krugman Has Turned On Obama….

Posted on January 21, 2010 by William Teach

Things are not sunshine and unicorn poots in Liberal World right now. Many are trying to spin the loss of Teddy’s bourbon covered seat in all sorts of ways that minimize the damage (just a little hint, Lefties, you also lost the NJ and Va. governor seats for the same reasons you lost in Mass.), […]

NBC’s Viera Scolding Scott Brown on Today Show

Posted on January 20, 2010January 20, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

Meridith Viera seemed a bit annoyed that she was interviewing the newly elected Republican Scott Brown instead of Democrat Martha Coakley now that Massachusetts voters made their choice in the Tuesday special election for the open Senate seat there. Viera did her level best to phrase the results of the election in an agenda driven […]

Krugman Says Obama Doesn’t Blame Bush Enough?

Posted on January 20, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

One of the worst writers in political punditry, a man with a little deserved reputation as a thinker and analyst, is New York Times columnist Paul Krugman. Sometimes the things he says are so absurd that it is hard to believe that even he believes what he is writing. Aside from his discreditable insistence that […]

$42 Million Union Embezzlement case, Little Media Coverage

Posted on January 19, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

Union operative Melissa King of the Laborers International Union of North America (LIUNA) has been arrested for stealing $42 million in union funds to support the lavish lifestyle to which she and her daughter have become accustomed. It is being called the biggest union theft in history. So why haven’t we heard of this union […]

This Is How You Message: YouTube Videos That Are Making TV Ads Look Sad

Posted on January 19, 2010 by Melissa Clouthier

At risk of ticking you off, I’ve included some ads. There is commentary at the end. Scroll down if you can’t watch the videos. To the Democrats: To the Republicans: American Resurgence: This last one was made by a teenager. Nice production value, don’t you think? And, by the way, I’m in it. Massachusetts Miracle: […]

Posted on January 18, 2010 by Warner Todd Huston

The special election in Massachusetts for the open Senate seat once held by Teddy Kennedy is the hottest political story of the day. The race is so close that no one is sure who will win but signs are starting to point to Republican Scott Brown’s win. Cue the Associated Press with a puff piece […]

MSNBC Urges Dems to Cheat in Massachusetts

Posted on January 18, 2010 by Dave Blount

Democrats are widely expect to cheat to hold onto the contested Senate seat in Massachusetts — and their strident supporters at MSNBC are egging them on. Here goes Ed Schultz of comrade Obama’s favorite network: If I lived in Massachusetts, I’d try to vote ten times. I don’t know if they’d let me or not, […]

Poor excuse

Posted on January 17, 2010 by Ron Coleman

Did you hear about this travesty in Haiti? Earthquake victims, writhing in pain and grasping at life, watched doctors and nurses walk away from a field hospital Friday night after a Belgian medical team evacuated the area, saying it was concerned about security. The decision left CNN Chief Medical Correspondent Sanjay Gupta as the only […]

Misogyny is Funny! If You are a Liberal, That Is. (And If You’re Talking About Sarah Palin)

Posted on January 17, 2010 by Lori Ziganto

Jerry Adler over at Newsweek is up to familiar tricks; the typical leftist move of misogyny disguised as “humor”. I know. I didn’t realize Newsweek was still in publication either. Hey, I suppose the hip, cultured and enlightened folks need something to read whilst sipping their Pinot Noir and fantasizing about Europe in their Ivory […]
