Rush Is Correct on the Political Use of the Vatican Ecology Statement

For years liberals have used a supportive national news media who intimidate anyone who dares question their global-warming agenda. Now these liberals believe Pope Francis has endorsed their ideological imperatives through Laudato Si. His encyclical elevates their agenda to dogma. Those who analyze this encyclical through the perspective of politics see this as a gift to the American left.…

Limbaugh Nails It Predicting Social Media Disrupting Pro Sports

Remember that great scene from the 1987 movie "Broadcast News" when nebbish TV reporter Aaron Altman (Albert Brooks) was at home watching breaking news of a military flareup involving Libya while he phoned in tips for coverage to producer Jane Craig (Holly Hunter), who conveyed them word for word to neophyte anchor Tom Grunick (William Hurt), leading Altman to utter the best line in the movie…

Veteran Dem Loses San Antonio Mayor's Race; AP Doesn't Name Her Party

A terse, five-paragraph June 14 Associated Press report on the results of San Antonio's mayoral election the previous day gave no indication of the party affiliation or political outlook of the winner or loser. Readers could only determine that the winner, Ivy Taylor, became "the first African-American elected to the post," which of course had to mean that the handpicked candidate to succeed…

The Guardian: ‘Elated’ Abortionist Rips Out Baby ‘Part by Part'

Pro-choice doesn’t mean “anti-life,” but “improves life,” according to one abortionist amplified by The Guardian. That is, if you don’t count the unborn baby’s life. The Guardian recently published a piece by an anonymous abortionist arguing that, “Being an abortion doctor has taught me a lot about life.” In it, the female “doctor” wrote that her work makes her feel “elated” – work that includes…

Salon: 'Rich People are the F****** Worst'

Mark Halperin Apologizes to Republicans For Believing WH on Gruber

Are you so gullible as to place your faith in the credibility of the current White House? If so, you might have to find yourself end up eating crow and apologizing to the skeptics for your gullibility as happened to Bloomberg Politics managing editor Mark Halperin on Morning Joe today. Halperin's apology came on the heels of a report yesterday in the Wall Street Journal that despite previous…

WashPost Enjoys Making Republicans Struggle With Pope on Climate

The Washington Post is enjoying making Republicans struggle with the new Vatican document on the environment. On Friday’s front page, Post reporter Karen Tumulty highlighted how the new encylical “poses a dilemma for GOP hopefuls” and channeled Rush Limbaugh’s view that Pope Francis is encouraging all Democrats to vote Democrat for a climate change solution. Are journalists trying to put…

Washington Post Finds Environmentalism Sabotaged Recycling

Tucked away in an article about how recycling has become a losing proposition and recycling companies and facilities are deeply in the red, was a surprising reason. “Trying to encourage conservation, progressive lawmakers and environmentalists have made matters worse. By pushing to increase recycling rates with bigger and bigger bins — while demanding almost no sorting by consumers — the…

MRC's Bozell Condemns Photo Showing Gun Pointed at Ted Cruz's Head

Just days after a horrific shooting that took nine lives, the AP has the gall to unapologetically display a gun aimed at the head of a presidential candidate. They would never do this to Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama. Nor should they. This was not an accident and the AP owes Sen. Cruz, his wife and children, an immediate and unqualified apology.

WashPost's Tabloid Features Anti-Catholic Ad on Front Page

On Monday, the Washington Post's Express tabloid ran a blatantly anti-Catholic ad on its front page. The full-page advertisement from the far-left "Catholics For Choice" group spoofed the famous World War I-era "I Want You" military recruiting poster, and evoked the worst of 19th century Know-Nothingism. Instead of Uncle Sam, a caricature of a Catholic bishop with a miter on his head points at…
