Religion of Liberalism: Washington Post's 'On Faith' Blog

March 12th, 2012 11:31 AM
The Washington Post’s “On Faith” blog network bills itself as “a conversation on religion and politics.” But the conversation of “On Faith” more accurately resembles a diatribe justifying liberal politics with religious imagery.  During this past week, Becky Garrison claimed that Christian actor Kirk Cameron was not a Christian because he opposes homosexual marriage, and Lisa Miller…

Jane Fonda and Gloria Steinem Call for FCC to Ban Rush Limbaugh

March 10th, 2012 5:27 PM
The Left's hunt for conservative talk radio host Rush Limbaugh's head stepped up a notch Saturday when Jane Fonda and Gloria Steinem called for the FCC to ban him. Radical feminist activist Robin Morgan also participated in penning the anti-free speech piece published by CNN.com:

Rush: 'There Is Shellshock' That Campaign to Marginalize Him Hasn't Wo

March 9th, 2012 5:06 PM
In the second half of his second hour today, Rush Limbaugh followed up on a phone call from a "Victor in Atlanta." Vince is concerned that many Americans like him, even though they want a different president, are "zapped out of enthusiasm." Rush took Vince's call as an opportunity to look at the Sandra Fluke controversy of the past week and use its results as an indicator that enthusiasm for…

NYT's Former SCOTUS Reporter Celebrates 'Accidental Heroines' Fluke an

March 9th, 2012 2:10 PM
Linda Greenhouse the New York Times's former Supreme Court reporter (and left-wing ranter at commencement speeches), now writes a twice-a-month column for nytimes.com. Wednesday she hailed birth-control activist and new liberal martyr Sandra Fluke as a civil rights pioneer on the level of (naturally) Anita Hill, while tarring Rush Limbaugh as a thug, in "Accidental Heroines."

The Da Vinci Speech Code? WaPo’s 'On Faith' Invokes Mary Magdalene t

March 8th, 2012 3:00 PM
Things are getting pretty surreal around the Washington Post’s “On Faith” blog when a supposedly credentialed cleric turns to the loopy fiction of “The Da Vinci Code” for ammunition to attack Rush Limbaugh.  Rev. Susan Brooks Thistlethwaite, a minister in the United Church of Christ and a senior fellow at the George Soros-funded Center for American Progress, attacked Limbaugh by comparing…

Tyrrell Column: Miss Sandra Fluke's Fluke

March 8th, 2012 2:28 PM
I like to think of Miss Sandra Fluke's contretemps with the madly admired Mr. Rush Limbaugh as, well, a fluke. She objected to his joke about her being "a slut" and "a prostitute," and hesto presto the part-time Georgetown University law student struck pay dirt. You object to my characterization of her as "part-time"? How could she be a full-time law student and still be appearing before…

MSNBC's Jansing Pushes 'War on Women' Meme on Intl. Women's Day, Carts

March 8th, 2012 11:45 AM
What better day for MSNBC to push its phony "War on Women" meme than International Women's Day? Morning anchor Chris Jansing neatly tied today the network's war on Rush Limbaugh with its epic battle to distort the political fight over the contraceptive mandate into an imagined titanic clash over "women's health." For the segment, Jansing tag-teamed with colleague Alex Wagner as well as…

CNN Contributor Argues Limbaugh's Remark Was Worse Than Bill Maher's V

March 7th, 2012 5:29 PM
Liberal comedian Pete Dominick, a CNN contributor, listed the "differences" he saw between Rush Limbaugh's crack at Sandra Fluke and Bill Maher ripping Sarah Palin in vile fashion, on CNN Wednesday. "[T]here still is a difference in terms of what comedians say," he said of Maher versus "arguably" the "most influential commentator in all of politics" Rush Limbaugh. Perhaps his most ridiculous…

WaPo Columnist Uses Military Women to Shill for Contraception Mandate

March 6th, 2012 2:08 PM
Liberal media outlets have proven pathologically incapable of telling the truth about the Obama administration’s birth control mandate, portraying the issue as a war on women. Now, the Washington Post is even using a woman’s military conference to defend the Obama administration’s blatant violation of religious liberty, and to attack its critics. Washington Post columnist Petula Dvorak…

Fox Liberal: Anti-Rush Campaign 'Isn't About Misogyny' - 'It's a Proxy

March 5th, 2012 7:36 PM
As NewsBusters reported, liberal Fox News contributor Kirsten Powers published a rather surprising column at the Daily Beast Sunday called "Rush Limbaugh Isn’t the Only Media Misogynist." On Monday she appeared on Fox's America Live taking this issue even further saying, "This isn't really about misogyny...It's a proxy war for the Democratic Party: they can use it in the election for part of…

CNN Lets NOW Say Why They Want Limbaugh Fired -- But Never Held Ed Sch

March 5th, 2012 4:54 PM
In the wake of Rush Limbaugh calling a Georgetown law student a "slut," CNN hosted the president of the liberal National Organization for Women who called for Limbaugh to be fired, on Monday morning's 10 a.m. hour of Newsroom. They did not give such a voice to supporters of conservative women last year when those women were under attack from liberals. When liberal radio host Ed Schultz…

Time's Meacham: Anti-Limbaugh Letter by Georgetown President 'Timeless

March 5th, 2012 12:50 PM
Jon Meacham has come down with a particularly virulent strain of Limbaugh Derangement Syndrome that is bringing him to the brink of insanity. How else could one explain the Time magazine writer hailing an anti-Limbaugh speech as "timeless"  just like Jesus's Sermon on the Mount or Lincoln's Gettysburg Address? Yes, I kid you not, he really went there, and in a Time.com "Ideas" blog post…

Liberal Fox Contributor Takes on Left: 'Rush Limbaugh Isn’t the Only

March 4th, 2012 11:31 AM
NewsBusters readers likely know Kirsten Powers as one of the many intelligent, reasonable, liberal contributors to Fox News. On Sunday, Powers published a piece at the Daily Beast entitled "Rush Limbaugh Isn’t the Only Media Misogynist" that is guaranteed to be applauded by the Right and heavily ridiculed by her colleagues on the left:

Bill Maher: 'If Rick Santorum Is Your Youth Minister' You’d Switch t

March 3rd, 2012 1:27 PM
Bill Maher unsurprisingly took some vicious cheap shots at Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum on HBO's Real Time Friday. In his final New Rule segment, Maher said, "If Rick Santorum is your youth minister, you’d ask your parents to switch you to the one who just molests" (video follows with transcript and commentary):
