Good dental health is still just a dream for many in Iraq. Don't the Iraqi people deserve a "spiritual leader" who can chew his own food?

So I went trolling around the left side of the Internet and came across this from the liberal Center on Budget and Policy Priorities. The title of the document tells you all you really need to know about it. ADMINISTRATION'S LATEST 2004 DEFICIT PROJECTION APPEARS OVERSTATED; Will Final Deficit Figure Be Presented As Progress In […]
A researcher at MIT has determined that the key to being considered sexy is your name. Linguist Amy Perfors of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology posted photos of men and women on the U.S. Web site "Hot or Not," which lets viewers rate pictures according to how attractive they find them. When she posted the […]
Got this one from my anonymous Air Force friend. A new bar opened and everyone in town was talking about it. The buzz was because it had a robot-bartender. One fellow had to see this for himself, so in he goes and sits at the bar. Sure enough, a robot was bar tending. The man […]
Last month Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting (aka FAIR) came out with a report entitled: "Still Failing the 'Fair and Balanced' Test." The report is an indictment of Fox News' main nightly news show, "Special Report with Brit Hume," for featuring very few liberals in the news interview portion of the program. One interesting thing […]
Maybe it will improve over the next few days and weeks as reporters have the opportunity to really do some serious digging into the claims made by the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, but thus far the reporting has been abysmal.

If I was teaching a college journalism class, I'd assign Bozell's book, along with Eric Alterman's "What Liberal Media?" and have the students decide who made a better case. To my mind, Bozell's analysis is superior -- […]
I watched the rhetorical slugfest on Tim Russert's show this past weekend. It wasn't exactly title fightlike, it was more of a "Toughman" competition. Not a lot of skill was on display, but it was bloody. Fox News' Bill O'Reilly, with a decided advantage on reach, height and weight, it was really no contest as […]
John Kerry did something stupid last week. He took an tip from Michael Moore's Fahrenheit 9/11 and attacked President Bush for sitting and reading a book, calmly, with schoolkids for 7 minutes after being told that America was under attack. Unfortunately, Kerry apparently forgot that he'd already gone on the record with Larry King on […]
The conventional wisdom among the swing voters and the lukewarm leaning-Kerry voters is that when it comes to protecting America, both candidates would do an equally good job. For the past 2+ decades, when Islamist radicals have attacked the United States, the country has retreated -- during both Republican and Democrat administrations. From the Beirut […]
