"Tonight for the interview ..." -- or The Interview as this species of schmooze is known on The Rachel Maddow Show -- "we've got a sitting Supreme Court justice," trumpeted Maddow on her program Friday night.

NPR's Totenberg Pretends John Roberts Is 'Consistently Conservative'
October 6th, 2015 10:54 AM
As the Supreme Court term begins, NPR court correspondent Nina Totenberg played dumb on Monday’s Morning Edition, much like Adam Liptak at The New York Times. Why would conservatives dislike “consistently conservative” chief justice John Roberts?
Desperately employing rickety rationales twice to uphold Obamacare somehow doesn’t undermine “consistency.” Totenberg forgot Roberts being hailed by…

New Yorker Writer: Second Amendment ‘Sanity’ = Gun Control
October 3rd, 2015 11:17 AM
In recent years, some advocates of increased gun control have called for repeal or revision of the Second Amendment, but Adam Gopnik believes that either would be superfluous.
In a Friday article, Gopnik asserted that “the only amendment necessary for gun legislation…is the Second Amendment itself, properly understood, as it was for two hundred years in its plain original sense. This sense can…
NYT Defends 'Quite Conservative' John Roberts From Right-Wing 'Wrath'
September 30th, 2015 10:15 AM
New York Times Supreme Court correspondent Adam Liptak filed a liberal pleasing analysis Tuesday, fervently insisting Chief Justice John Roberts is a staunch conservative, despite what ridiculous right-wingers may think. His reported opinion piece, based on voting analysis by law professors, strained to show Roberts as a loyal conservative Justice, but the evidence is hardly as cut and dried as…
Law Prof: Christian Right Throwing ‘Tantrum’ Over Gay Marriage
September 25th, 2015 9:41 PM
Variations on the term “Bush Derangement Syndrome” are common on both the right and the left (a Google search for “Clinton Derangement Syndrome” yielded roughly 180,000 results). Therefore, it wasn’t surprising to see Indiana University law prof Steve Sanders modify Charles Krauthammer’s famous coinage in order to trash religious conservatives.
“The Christian right is deep in the grip of gay…

Kim Davis, the Media, and the Constitution

If it were up to today’s media, there would still be slavery. And once the Thirteenth Amendment ended slavery, today’s media would have championed segregation and racism.

NY Times Headlines Make Clarence Thomas Look Like a Plagiarist
August 30th, 2015 10:42 AM
The leftist press has despised Clarence Thomas ever since he fought off their attempt at what he properly characterized as a "high-tech lynching" to become a Supreme Court justice almost 24 years ago. It has worked to smear and discredit him ever since.
The latest such effort was posted online at the New York Times on Thursday and published in its Friday print edition. The online and print…
