No, it's not one of those made-up critics quotes for the next Hollywood blockbuster, rather it is the media's coverage of President Bush's service in the Air National Guard.

Last month, the people of Venezuela went to the polls to vote on whether or not to recall their strong-arm, Castro-loving dictator Hugo Chavez. Hundreds of thousands of Venezuelan citizens had signed petitions to bring the issue to a vote -- and then a massive fraud occurred. Exit polls had the recall effort succeeding by […]

As families in Russia mourn the deaths of more than 300 men, women and children -- victims of Muslim terrorists -- a Syrian-born Muslim "cleric" living in Britain says that the "tactic" is acceptable.
