Bush Likened to “Bull” Connor, the Firehose and Dog Sheriff of Selma

Yesterday we compared the hysteria the news media created when it quoted Bill Bennett completely out of context concerning arguments against abortion, and compared that to the complete silence over a liberal talk show host comparing the evacuation of New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina to the...

Abort blacks to reduce crime; New Orleans evacuations like Auschwitz?

William Bennett, former Secretary of Education under President Reagan and author of The Moral Compass, was condemned this week throughout the news media. Mr. Bennett was widely quoted as advocating on his radio talk show that black babies be aborted to reduce crime. Or did he? If you believe the... Sign in to see full entry.

DeLay Indictment Proves Republicans are a Culture of Corruption

The news media has a new cliché. From now until the next catch phrase presents itself, the Republican party will be called a “culture of corruption.” No idea where the phrase originated, but in the latest example of careful orchestration between the Democrat Party operatives and the press, today it...

DeLay indicted on conspiracy charges!

Rejoice, ye liberals, rejoice! The hated senator Tom DeLay has been indicted on conspiracy charges. Send him off to jail immediately, without trial, just as Screamin’ Howard demanded this year! That said, for what exactly is Senator DeLay being indicted? What exact charges are filed against him in... Sign in to see full entry.

“What the F?”: Bush misleads world, says news media that does the same!

New Orleans was awash in complete and total mayhem after the levees broke, according to the news media. Civilization had broken down completely, thousands were dying, the Superdome was a cesspool of rapes and violence with hundreds of bodies lying about, so claimed various accounts offered...

Bush doesn’t know what’s going on because he doesn’t watch TV news!

So claimed Chris Matthews of Hardball in one of the dumbest statements about civics I’ve ever heard. Congressman Peter King (R-New York) was giving Matthews a well-deserved lecture on the news media’s numerous failures in its coverage of Katrina (see above) when the following exchange took place:...

The Cruel Wind of Divisiveness Blows Hard at Sheehan Rally

Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney (D-Georgia) was one of the speakers at Cindy Sheehan’s “big” protest rally in Washington over the weekend. Ms. McKinney was full of fire, employing some rather original rhetoric that provided a welcome but brief relief from the usual ravings of the I-hate-Bush bunch.... Sign in to see full entry.

What’s this? Bush Criticizes Bubba on Response to Terrorism?

Ever since his election in 2000, President Bush has gone out of his way to make nice to his impeached predecessor. In exchange, Bubba has criticized Bush here and abroad on everything from tax cuts to disaster response to the war on terror. Bubba offered his wisdom on the Iraq campaign on This Week...

Government should determine the “moral agenda?”

For decades, the concept of the government defining what is or isn’t moral has been absolutely anathema to the left. Any restriction on anything that they favor is to be fervently and adamantly opposed as intrusive, an infringement on free speech or civil rights, and legislating morality, to name...

Louisiana Congressional Delegation Wants $250,000,000,000

Some people have an absolutely horrible sense of timing, perhaps even of gratitude. Yesterday, Louisiana Senators Mary Landrieu (D) and David Vitter (R) presented a “wish list” of what they want the federal government to pay for in their own state. The tab for their little list? Try a cool... Sign in to see full entry.
