Liberal Bias Doesn’t Take A Break For The Holidays

I was in the middle of a leisurely look at this morning’s sales papers, and as it is every week, a Parade magazine was included with the sales papers and coupons. This week’s magazine featured a “best and worst of 2008” year in review of sorts, and I was disappointed but not surprised to see […]

How Israeli Planned To Kick Hamas’ Butts

Haaretz has a story up regarding the Israeli plans to beat the snot out of Hamas, which is driving sites such as Firedoglaketo their typical unhingedness (not to mention the claims of a mosque and jihadi TV station being hit. Poor babies). Let’s look. Disinformation, secrecy and lies: How the Gaza offensive came about Long-term […]

RNC Race for Chairman Getting Hot

With just about 5 weeks to go until the vote in Washington, DC to elect the next Chairman of the Republican National Committee, the six candidates running have very little time to impress and convince the 168 voting members of the Republican National Committee that they would be the best candidate for the job. To […]

Boo-hoo: Gaza Offensive Making It Tougher for Obama to “Forge a Peace Deal”

The Washington Post has its Obama-centric glasses on, I see: Israel’s airstrikes on Gaza yesterday, in retaliation for a nonstop barrage of rocket attacks from Hamas fighters, raised the prospect of an escalation of violence that could scuttle any hopes the incoming Obama administration harbored of forging an Israeli-Palestinian peace deal. “If the casualty reports […]

The Pieta

You all know the Pieta, Michelangelo’s exquisite rendition of a devastated Mary holding Jesus’ body in her arms: With that in mind, tell me what you think of this picture out of Gaza from the always even-handed New York Times? (And for those of you who don’t know me, I’m being sarcastic about the Times.) […]

Moonbats: Christmas Causes Global Warming

Another Christmas has come and gone; let’s hope the planet can recover. From Down Under: Wasted food at Christmas time is now being highlighted as an environmental problem. Jon Dee, the chairman of Do Something, says gases from leftover food rotting in landfill are 20 times more potent than the carbon pollution from car exhausts. […]

2008 MRC Awards

The Media Research Center offers a collection of 2008 lowlights from the moonbat media. MSNBC Obamunist Chris “Tweety” Matthews wins “Quote of the Year” for his on-air description of the sensation that overcomes him when he listens to Obama peddling the vacuous pabulum that covers his lunatic left agenda: I felt this thrill going up […]

Quote of the Day from Ann Coulter

In the fake-phony land of liberals, I’d be chastised by the PC police for promoting this Ann Coulter quote. Fortunately, I’m not in the business of abiding by their rules, so I’m free to say that Coulter’s statement wouldn’t be as amusing as it is if it weren’t so peculiarly… true. I mean, we’ve all […]

Christmas is now an official holiday in Iraq

This just goes to show how far we truly have come: Iraq’s Christians, a scant minority in this overwhelmingly Muslim country, quietly celebrated Christmas on Thursday with a present from the government, which declared it an official holiday for the first time. … In his homily on Thursday, Chaldean Cardinal Emmanuel III Delly praised the […]

Joel Stein: Liberals don’t love America the way conservatives do

The only shocking thing about this column is that a liberal was actually willing to say this out loud: I don’t love America. That’s what conservatives are always telling liberals like me. Their love, they insist, is truer, deeper and more complete. Then liberals, like all people who are accused of not loving something, stammer, […]

Prop. 8 Boycotts Backfire

Gay activists went crazy when Prop. 8 passed banning gay marriage, using intimidation and ridicule on those who donated and/or supported Prop. 8. I blogged before about the bullying tactics used by those who opposed Prop. 8: The activist gay community has only hurt it’s cause by resorting to intimidation and threats to those individuals […]

Bush’s Parting Shot On Women’s “Reproductive Rights”

The issue of abortion on demand is one I typically avoid for the most part, except regarding late term and parental notification, but, this one is just was too over the top to ignore Undermining women’s reproductive rights and access to health care has been a pervasive theme of the outgoing administration. On his first […]

Surrender Monkey Friday: Give Super Michelle A Paycheck

On of Surrendies favorite things, when it comes to surrender, is when newspapers surrender to massive idiocy in pushing a political agenda. They can wrap it up in nice prose and “facts,” but, idiocy is still idiocy. Case in point: Lauren Stiller, New York Times: First Lady: A Job Worth A Paycheck  First lady. First […]

To The Memory Hole And Back

I originally produced the above clip, “Mugging For The Camera,” back in early April as part of my Silicon Graffiti series of videoblogs, and uploaded it first to my primary video server, where I posted it here and it got a fair chunk of traffic in the Blogosphere. I then uploaded it to YouTube for […]

The Emperor’s Wardrobe Is Out For Dry Cleaning

CNN’s John Roberts can be witnessed between 6:50 and 7:30 point in the above edition of Silicon Graffiti doing an amazing aerial 180 worthy of both Tony Hawk and Joseph Stalin–and here with the very definition of a Freudian slip. And yet, he seems surprisingly incredulous when one of October’s chief hit and run victims […]

Embracing the season

Christmas is always a little bittersweet for me. Almost all of my Christmas memories involve my brother — him unwrapping and then rewrapping presents under the tree, decorating the house together, and squirming through Midnight Mass together. We’ll never have any of that again, and the memories will just have to be enough. I have […]

NY Times Sits on Dissent to Bill Ayers

On September 11, 2001, the New York Times ran a piece on unrepentant and unpunished communist terrorist Bill Ayers, the guy who launched Barack Obama’s political career from his living room. Ayers crowed that he wished he had done more in the way of setting off bombs in public buildings. More recently, the Gray Lady […]

Seattle Too Moonbatty to Salt Its Icy Streets

Seattle moonbattery can be hazardous to your health, especially if you’re trying to drive through all this global warming. The moonbats running the city won’t use salt to keep its streets from turning into skating rinks, for fear it might end up in Puget Sound: To hear the city’s spin, Seattle’s road crews are making […]

In the spirit of the season, […]

“Change” Not Living Up To Expectations?

When you live by identity politics, you are likely to suffer because of them. And that’s especially true when you throw nebulous terms like “change” around and allow others to project their meaning of the word back on you. That’s admittedly what Obama did during the campaign. And he’s seeing what I’d call the expected, […]

Gray Lady to Go Belly Up in 2009?

Here is my favorite prediction for 2009: the New York Times, the appallingly irresponsible flagship publication of the liberal elite establishment, which lays down the marching orders for the propagandists of the alphabet networks, may finally roll over and die next year: The New York Times (NYT) has to repay $400 million in debt in […]

Santa Gets Greenwashed

Not even Santa Claus can stand above the rising tide of enviromoonbattery that has been swamping every nook and cranny of our culture. The Culture and Media Institute reports on the new children’s book Santa Goes Green: “You see, it’s like this Santa,” the book reads. “I’ve adopted a polar bear named Leopold. He is […]

A Family Legacy?

Looking at the two highly visible Senate appointments of New York (Hillary’s seat) and Chicago (Obama’s seat), illustrates how the Democrat machine works. If Democrats could pick and choose their winning candidate without benefit of the people’s vote, this is what we would get. Caroline Kennedy or Andrew Cuomo for New York. Do the names […]

Retailers Taking The Christmas Out Of Christmas

Anyone surprised? And with the holiday that dare not speak its name almost upon us, nowhere is that phenomenon more noticeable, or more indefensible, than in the advertising sales circulars of the national retail chains that come by the dozen in newspapers, especially on Sundays. A review of those sales brochures from the day after […]
