National Review in an unsigned editorial posted today lays out yet more reasons why the self-appointed watchdogs at Politifact can’t be trusted. I encourage you to read the whole thing, but there’s one part I want to highlight and then elaborate on. PolitiFact’s other arguments are that Medicare spending will continue to rise and that […]
Sadly, the longer I’ve been out of journalism, the more my respect for journalists wanes. When I was sitting in a newsroom 5 days a week, I saw the work they produced was not always fair; it was not always complete; it was not always accurate. But at the same time, I interacted with those […]
Well, a few months back Newsweek declared Barack Obama our first gay president. It turns out in 2012, Democrats are running the first all-gay ticket. Which three exactly? Cue: “If Sarah Palin had said it…”
Reading this bit of stupidity today made my blood boil. Americans often tell pollsters they yearn for a return to the Christian principles on which the U.S. was founded. If so, they should take a closer look at the Romney-Ryan ticket. Jesus’s teachings regarding wealth are nowhere to be found in Paul Ryan’s budget proposals. […]
GOP Presidential candidate Mitt Romney's selection of Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan is probably the best selection he could have made. It may not deliver Wisconsin in his category like the selection of Sen. Rob Portman may have done for Ohio, but it is an indication that the GOP at least plans to have a serious […]

The Wall Street journal has […]
Politifraud did it again this week. Americans for Tax Reform came out with a press release linked to the Olympic fever pointing out that for those athletes that find themselves in to top tax bracket this year, each gold medal will cost them up to $9,000 in taxes. Note the “up to” and “top tax […]
Given the opportunity to look like an honest man, Harry Reid has decided to go for broke on his big lie. On Wednesday, Reid stuck to his story, and broadened it. "I am not basing this on some figment of my imagination," Reid said in a telephone call with Nevada reporters. "I have had a […]
The stupid just cannot be contained. Sen. Harry Reid, the Democrat head of the U.S. Senate: Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) has what he says is an informed explanation for why Mitt Romney refuses to release additional tax returns. According a Bain investor, Reid charged, Romney didn't pay any taxes for 10 years. In […]
President Obama today held a campaign rally at a high school in Virginia. In an effort to channel his inner Elizabeth Warren, he decided to lecture the dependent class on how everyone is dependent, so don't feel bad. If you’ve got a business -- you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen. The mind […]
