I mentioned earlier this week that Obama supporters have said a lot of outrageous things, but that we still hadn't located the line that, if crossed, would be too much for Sen. Barack Obama to stomach. Calling John McCain a warmonger isn't past the line. Calling on God to "damn America" isn't over the line. […]

Sen. Jay Rockefeller, Moron-W. Va., had the following to say about Sen. John McCain. Rockefeller believes McCain has become insensitive to many human issues. "McCain was a fighter pilot, who dropped laser-guided missiles from 35,000 feet. He was long gone when they hit. "What happened when they [the missiles] get to the ground? He doesn't […]

Katie Couric's "CBS Evening News" on Friday covered Rep. John "Big Pig" Murtha and his earmarking prowess. What word was missing from that nearly 3-minute report? I'll give you a hint: It starts with a "D" and ends with "emocrat."

While going through all of the New York Times coverage of the Rev. Jeremiah Wright controversy, I came across this column by Nicholas Kristof. I encourage you to compare and contrast that column that attempts to put the most benign color (excuse the pun) on Wright's Black Liberation "Theology" to this column that painted evangelicals […]

I'm working my way, rather quickly, through Bernard Goldberg's "Crazies to the left of me, Wimps to the righ," and came across a section on the New York Times and its refusal to print the infamous Muhammed cartoons. Goldberg describes an editorial that ran in the Times explaining how they chose not to print the […]

Kansas defeated Memphis earlier this evening, 75-68 in OT.

Line of the night: Kansas has experience in OT champioinship games. Their 1957 team played in one. 1957. […]

The more time passes in this presidential campaign, the clearer it becomes that Sen. Barack Obama is the shallowest, emptiest politician to come down the pike in a long time. A few months back, Sen. John McCain was being introduced at a rally by radio talk show host who said some nasty things about Obama […]

Actor and activist Charlton Heston, who won the Academy Award for his portrayal of Judah Ben-Hur, died yesterday at the age of 83. Going through his biography on IMDB, there was one quote of his that summed up his life: "In the beginning an actor impresses us with his looks, later his voice enchants us. […]

Rasmussen Reports has come out with a little statistical thought experiment: What would the Democratic presidential race look like if the Democrats used the GOP's winner-take-all primary system? The answer: Hillary would be in the lead. It would be interesting to hear Sen. Clinton's response if asked her opinion today of the Democrats proportional system […]

GQ of all places has an excellent interview with Bush confidante and adviser Karl Rove. I want to highlight two sections. First there's this on Rove's meeting with Barack Obama. Have you gotten to know Hillary or Barack to any degree? Yes, I have. What have been your dealings with them? Well, you know, I […]
