The speaker, Howard Dean: I am going to balance the budget and I'm going to do it in the sixth or seventh year of my administration. We're also going....What?

I'm watching a replay of today's Democrat presidential candidate debate -- and it isn't pretty. It's become obvious to me why these forums are increasingly useless; if you're looking for truth, you won't find it in the debates. Some of these loons are making statements which are demonstrably false and no one -- not the […]

While I was sick, CBS has denied last week's New York Times report that it paid Michael Jackson $1 million, through Enron-style accounting, for his "60 Minutes" interview. I mentioned the story earlier here.

Since such a payment flies in the face of journalistic ethics, CBS managed to get its entertainment division to write the check, according to the Times. Another black eye for […]

James Taranto's "Best of the Web Today" yesterday highlighted Democrat presidential hopeful Howard Dean's interview last week in the Boston Globe which I also mentioned. Well, when I saw that, I thought to myself, Taranto hasn't seen anything yet, and pointed him to my post and the related Dean blog post on Christmas Day. Today's […]

Check out today's Wall Street Journal piece on the mixed news coming out of Saudi Arabia and how it treats kidnapped Americans.

On the day the NASDAQ closed above 2,000 for the first time in 21 months, The New York Times' most irrelevant columnist, Paul Krugman, comes out with a column designed to show that the economy is not improving. To quote, "Weird Al" Yankovic, Krugman's point is: Everything you know is wrong Black is white, up […]
