Documents revealed Friday and reported in the San Diego Union-Tribune here, show just how flagrant and systematic Cunningham's corruption was.

Supporting the troops

Well, it looks like the Progress for America Voter Fund has gotten the Minnesota Democratic Party in full outrage mode. The conservative advocacy group is running a series of support-the-troops/support-the-Iraq-war spots that have the Dems questioning their own patriotism. The Minneapolis Star Tribune has more tonight. They report on KSTP television's refusal to run the […]

George Will

I usually agree with George Will, but today's column isn't one of them. Will argues that the NSA surveillance program is "monarchical." The next time a president asks Congress to pass something akin to what Congress passed on Sept. 14, 2001 -- the Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF) -- the resulting legislation might […]

Writing the headline without reading the story

Over at Slate they have a little explainer on hunting etiquette and it's quickly apparent that the headline writer didn't read the story. First, the headline and subhed: Does Dick Cheney Know How To Hunt? What the veep needs to learn about shooting quail. And now the story: On Saturday, Vice President Dick Cheney accidentally […]

About media bias

Most journalists are liberal -- that's no shocker to anyone who reads this blog or a daily newspaper for that matter. However, one of the tenets of American journalism continues to be that journalists set aside their biases and do their best to try and be fair and objective. Unfortunately for the Washington Post's White […]

Absolutely unhinged

It's days like today that you've got to be thankful for the utter incompetence of Florida voters. Had more of them been able to actually cast the vote they meant to cast for Vice President Al Gore, we would've had this nutcase in charge of our response to terrorism. Al Gore told a mainly Saudi […]
