Housecleaning

I must confess that I'm a little bit mystified why Democrats are so concerned about who President Bush's political staff are. New York Sen. Chuck Schumer was on "Fox News Sunday" this morning urging the president to fire Karl Rove and others so that he could "move forward." This is a new side to Chuck […]

How to do real reporting

The editors at the Seattle Post-Intelligencer could learn a thing or two dozen from the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. While the P-I is more than satisfied to reprint Joseph Wilson's lies "because he was the best person to know," the Post-Dispatch did some serious and critical reporting on a former Marine staff sergeant who is going […]

The problem with journalism

Well, there's more than one, but today we're going to look at the Seattle Post-Intelligencer. The P-I as it's known in Washington State, recently ran an article where it uncritically repeated Joseph Wilson's lie that he "found nothing" on his visit to Niger. When challenged on their failure to report on Wilson critically, the P-I […]

Where the promise is

These sorts of stories don't often make the front pages of newspapers because the embryonic stem cell debate is so much more popular with the crusading liberal media, but a San Diego biotech firm got a $30 million investment from Olympus to further their adult stem cell research. Cytori said yesterday it signed a deal […]

That other thing that was annoying me

I posted earlier this week about a couple of my current pet peeves -- and I knew at the time I was forgetting one. Here it is: The sideline reporter that the Chargers radio broadcaster employs -- a woman whose name I don't know -- last weekend went on the air and told the guys […]

Bums

It's always nice to know what your elected representatives think of you. Massachusetts Rep. Martin Meehan, one of a substantial group of Democrats who defeated the Online Freedom of Speech Act yesterday, thinks that bloggers who opine on politics are kinda like child pornographers. "We don't allow child pornography on the Internet. We don't exempt […]

The answer is "no"

The question is here. The truth is I've never found New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd particularly amusing, and her whining about men is particularly lame. Maureen Dowd's penchant for provocative overstatement has found its most recent outlet in a much talked about excerpt of her new book, Are Men Necessary?, in the New York […]

Lies, damn lies, and polls

Today's lesson is to never take a major media poll at face value. The latest CBS News poll has President Bush's job approval at a miniscule 35 percent -- that's 4-8 points lower than just about every other poll out there. How does CBS News get such a low number? Real Clear Politics points out […]

What TimesSelect hides from you

Today's David Brooks column is the funniest thing I've read in weeks. I read it for free because I have access to the wire, you'd have to pay for it. I'm going to quote a bit of it, just so you can appreciate just how big a mistake the New York Times is doing by […]

Racism in America

This editorial is proof positive that the editorial writers at the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel are condescending liberal racists. In decrying the nomination of yet another white male to the Supreme Court, the Journal Sentinel enlightens their readers on the current makeup of the Court. In losing a woman, the court with Alito would feature seven […]
