Eric Alterman has an acolyte

I've spent too much time this evening attempting to educate Tom Traubert over at Poynter.org's Romenesko's Media Blog. Mr. Traubert is part of the delusional left that is convinced that if you're not Keith Olbermann, then you're a right-winger. Follow the link for the entire exchange, but I wanted to highlight this bit of insanity: […]

Weenie diplomacy

Another bit that came out of today's press conference was President Obama's refusal to rescind invitations to Iran's diplomats across the globe to July 4 celebrations at U.S. embassies -- aptly described as "weenie diplomacy." All of this, of course, raises a major issue: Are the hot dogs real, American-style hot dogs which are typically […]

Obama and the public plan

Being unemployed means more normal-human "working" hours and the opportunity to see President Barack Obama's morning news conference -- the first one that hasn't cost the major networks millions of dollars in lost advertising revenue. President Obama just defended the so-called public plan from criticism that it would drive private insurance companies out of business […]

Government spending vs. private charity

I spent a couple days up in San Luis Obispo last week interviewing for a job. Because I'm a longtime newspaperman I picked up a copy of the old Telegram-Tribune, now known simply as the Tribune. An editorial in that paper criticized local state Assemblyman Sam Blakeslee -- the new GOP minority leader -- for […]

The brutality of the Iranian regime

Below is disturbing video of a young woman's death at the hands of one of Iran's Bisaj militia. The woman was standing on the sidewalk next to her father when the coward shot her through the heart. The video below is very graphic. Viewer discretion is advised.

More self-importance

Sen. Barbara Boxer (Dumb-Calif.) made an ass of herself this week when she called a Brig. Gen. on the carpet for referring to her as "ma'am." Chuck DeVore, who is running an uphill campaign to unseat Boxer in this very blue state has made a comparison.   Vice President Joe Biden's wife, Jill, prefers to […]
