Network Morning Shows Ignore Federal Prison Inmate's Strong Showing Ag

If you had any doubts that the liberal media are doing their level best this year to shield the public from embarrassing news developments pertaining to President Obama, you need look no further than the strange tale of federal prison inmate #11593-051, Keith Judd, who gave President Obama a run for his money in yesterday's West Virginia Democratic presidential primary. The quadrennial…

CNN's Piers Morgan Attacks Tony Perkins for Supporting Traditional Mar

Following the overwhelming passage of Amendment 1 in North Carolina on Tuesday night, Piers Morgan brought on the president of the Family Research Council to attack him over his stance on same-sex marriage.  In typical Morgan fashion, Piers chose not to conduct a fair interview but instead attack Perkins. The interview started out with Morgan asking Tony why he is, "so implacably opposed to…

Laura Ingraham Rips NBC's Lauer and Media For Wanting to 'Avoid' Obama

As Matt Lauer went after Mitt Romney over comments about the auto bailout on Wednesday's NBC Today, conservative radio host Laura Ingraham took the morning show host and his colleagues to task: "Matt, as much as the Democrats, and maybe even you at times, want to turn this into a referendum on Romney, this is Romney running against an incumbent president who has a record that the media ought to…

'The Daily Show': 'TV Has Never Been Gayer

As NewsBusters reported, Vice President Joe Biden made a stupendously stupid comment on Sunday's Meet the Press about the NBC sitcom Will and Grace doing "more to educate the American public [about homosexuality] than almost anything anybody’s ever done." The Daily Show marvelously lampooned this issue as well as the President's "evolving" position on same-sex marriage Tuesday with John…

MSNBC Whacks Romney for Failing to Dismiss 'Treason' Talk; But In

On MSNBC's Ed Show on Monday night, Ed Schultz attacked Mitt Romney for failing to disagree emphatically with a voter who said Obama should be tried for treason.

CNN's Jim Acosta Plays Up Romney 'Falling off Message' on Obama and Tr

When a lone attendee at a Mitt Romney rally said President Obama should be tried for treason, Romney ignored and later disagreed with the statement. CNN correspondent Jim Acosta played up the incident big time on Tuesday's The Situation Room, using it as an example of the Romney campaign being "straight off script." Of course, CNN is helping the Romney campaign to be "off script" by…

David Limbaugh Column: Truth Is Major Obstacle to Obama's Reelection

President Obama formally kicked off his re-election campaign in Richmond, Va., and Columbus, Ohio, Saturday, and his theme was certainly not, shall we say, "it's morning again in America" — President Ronald Reagan's optimistic re-election slogan in 1984. Obama's central message was more like: "Hey, I realize things look bad, and I'm not going to pretend you want four more years of this. But…

How Romney and Our Republic Can Win (Part

Last week, I showed how the Republican Party likely would lose the presidential election in November if it were to use conventional campaign tactics. However, I also explained an unconventional strategy that could usher in victory for the GOP and our republic — a tactic used by President Abraham Lincoln. This week, I want to elaborate more on Lincoln's concept of a team of rivals — and who…

CBS Boosts Obama White House's Same-Sex 'Marriage' Talking Points

Bill Plante forwarded the Obama administration's spin on Tuesday's CBS This Morning concerning Vice President Joe Biden's support for same-sex "marriage."

CNN Lauds 'Brave Catholic' Joe Biden for Supporting Same-Sex Marriage

After Vice President Joe Biden voiced his support of same-sex marriage over the weekend, CNN jumped all over the news on Monday and expectantly wondered if President Obama would follow suit. In fact, prime-time host Piers Morgan went so far as to admire the "brave Catholic" Biden for dissenting from Church teaching on the issue. During every hour save one from 5 a.m. all the way through 10 p…

Jake Tapper Grills White House on 'Cynical' Gay Marriage Dodge, ABC Ig

ABC News correspondent Jake Tapper on Monday grilled the White House press secretary over Barack Obama's position on gay marriage and whether he will change his stance after the 2012 election.

Open Thread: Union Boss Lowers Expectations for Walker Recall

Wisconsin Republican Scott Walker has been the target of government union bosses since he began talking about a series of small reforms designed to preserve state employee pensions without breaking the budget. Despite the crony millions being spent, however, Walker seems likely to be able to stave off the union attempt to depose him in a recall election. That likelihood is perhaps what…
