The other day Sen. Barack Obama urged his supporters to get in people's faces. Today, we get reports that his No. 2 is following his lead. The Obama campaign was hoping to reintroduce Mr. Biden this week as running mate attack dog. But his penchant for verbal rambling ensured that much of the attention he […]
Video proof that Gibson's "Are we fighting a holy war?" question was perhaps the idiotic question to be asked of anyone this election season.
Last week, I pointed out that the Boston Globe had seemingly retracted 8-year-old reporting on Sen. John McCain's physical disabilities due to wounds suffered at the hands of the North Vietnamese in order not to contradict a new ad by Sen. Barack Obama's campaign portraying McCain as a luddite. Well, the pattern is repeating itself […]
Sen. Barack Obama gave the following orders to his footsoldiers yesterday in Nevada. In Elko, Obama tried to anticipate his critics and called on the crowd of about 1,500 to sharpen their elbows, too. "I need you to go out and talk to your friends and talk to your neighbors. I want you to talk […]
Michelle Obama has some advice for voters. Michelle Obama says voters need to decide this election by examining the issues, not because they like a candidate or think "she's cute." Obama spoke in Charlotte on Thursday morning at a women's round-table on economic issues. The crowd roared at her remark disparaging voters who might cast […]

Here's a couple of Internet ads that take on Barack Obama's opposition to the Illinois Born-Alive Infant Protection Act. Beware, this second one has a brief shot of an aborted child -- for the record, you've probably seen far worse on those unfortunate posters that certain overzealous abortion opponents wield. Frankly, I have a hard […]
Yesterday, the House voted 236-189 for a bill that would open up a miniscule portion of the outer continental shelf for drilling, allow a few states along the southern eastern seaboard to allow drilling, but would give the states that allowed it no benefit -- and therefore no incentive -- to allow it. This farce […]
Time magazine's Joe Klein needs to have a doctrine named after him. Something along the lines of "No punditry shall be used against the author if it is more than six months old." Klein, most famous for writing the book "Primary Colors," is an Obama supporter and he's chosen to stick his neck out and […]
If your only glimpse into journalism was the Drew Barrymore movie "Never Been Kissed," then you'd probably buy Barack Obama's resume inflation exercise. In the movie, Barrymore's character is a copy editor with her own office and an assistant. In real life, copy editors don't. Likewise, Sen. Barack Obama tried to make his work as […]
