Michael S. Malone -- a longtime journalist -- has a piece up over at Pajamas Media decrying the one-sided media coverage of this presidential campaign. I encourage you to read the entire the entire thing, but I want to highlight a couple bits. But nothing, nothing I’ve seen has matched the media bias on display […]
From Mona Charon comes an appropriate response to the news that former Bush 43 spokesman Scott McClellan is voting for Obama. "By this act he has simultaneously raised the mean IQ of both parties."
After last week's "Joe the Plumber" debate, some McCain-Palin supporters dressed up as plumbers, complete wiith plungers, and held up signs that said "I am Joe the Plumber." The crack CBS fact-checking team determined this to be false. At least two of the members aren't quite as similar to the newly famous Joe Wurzelbacher as […]

Biden says that McCain voted against funding the troops. Exactly who is that going to convince? Seriously. Biden is […]
I've got the vice presidential debate replaying in another window on my computer as I scan through Web sites and I came across this from the New York Times live blog of the debate. One to One | 10:25 p.m. Ms. Ifill tries to break through the conventional wisdom about their biggest weaknesses. She notes […]
One of the lies that is making its way through the lefty blogosphere to the mainstream media is that Gov. Sarah Palin, during her time as mayor of Wasilla, charged victims of rape for the so-called "rape kit" that gathered evidence of the crime.
