Patterico points to some analysis made by San Francisco Chronicle columnist Debra Saunders -- one of the minority conservatives in the media -- on the voting tendencies of journalists. KURTZ: I mention MoveOn, because there are a lot of liberal groups, as you know, Debra Saunders, these 527s -- have there been a double standard […]
If you have never read John Kerry's testimony to the Senate foreign relations committee, then you should. If you've seen the most recent Swift Boat Veterans for Truth ad, then you've heard some of what John Kerry had to say more than three decades ago about his larger "band of brothers."

In fact, atrocities did happen. This analysis/Kerry-apology is lame. Yes, of course there were atrocities by U.S. forces during the […]
Here's a bunch of stuff I've been meaning to mention, but haven't had the time to really go into in depth. Check them out: John Kerry is a saint, really. Fox News' Chris Wallace demonstrated the most evenhanded and honest interview with regard to the swift boat vets. Ramesh Ponnuru over at National Review Online […]
