This is old news, but I'm going to resurrect it because it follows a media storyline: Kerry is a flip-flopper. John Kerry had just pumped up a huge crowd in downtown West Palm Beach, promising to make the state a battleground for his quest to oust President Bush, when a local television journalist posed the […]
Today's anti-527 editorial in The New York Times is interesting for its subtle nod toward the reality that there are some 527s who are supporting Sen. John Kerry. Campaign finance reform has accomplished a good deal in forcing the parties to rely on relatively modest individual donations. But thanks to the F.E.C., the nation's Potemkin […]
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."

So, what is former Democrat Sen. Max Cleland's paying gig nowadays? He spent yesterday in a bit of political theater attempting to deliver a letter to President Bush at his Texas ranch.

Inspired by the work of The New York Times graphics department, Hoystory.com has expanded on their work pointing out the incestuous relationships between the Bush campaign, GOP-leaning 527s, Sen.

The Electronic Freedom Foundation reports that the JibJab parody of "This Land is Your Land" is legal because the copyright has expired. Ludlow Music disputes the claim but has settled the case -- agreeing that there will be no further lawyering.
McQ over at QandO has tracked down a statement in last week's New York Times hit piece on the Swift Boat Veterans and discovered something worthy of a correction. But in that article there was this paragraph: A damage report to Mr. Thurlow's boat shows that it received three bullet holes, suggesting enemy fire, and […]
FactCheck.org analyzes the swift boat vets latest ad and comes up with this headline: Swift Boat Veterans Anti-Kerry Ad: "He Betrayed Us" With 1971 Anti-War Testimony Group quotes Kerry's descriptions of atrocities by US forces. 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 […]
