A Politico reporter has suggested that racism was behind Neil Munro's questioning of President Obama at the White House yesterday.  Saying "it's very, very difficult to place race outside of this context," the Politico's Joe Williams claimed racially-motivated direspect of PBO is part of a pattern among conservatives, citing Rep.

Bozell Column: Hollywood Still Hates Bush-Cheney

Barack Obama keeps desperately pounding the entertainment industry’s ATMs in Hollywood and Manhattan while our manufacturers of make-believe have absolutely refuse to expel their vicious hatred of George W. Bush and Dick Cheney. You wonder if on any level Obama is upset, or chagrined, or even embarrassed. Two examples have shown their ugly heads – one of them severed. HBO – whose Bill Maher…

The Huff-Po View: If High Court Overrules ObamaCare, Justices Are Stup

On Wednesday's edition of the Bill Press radio show, Huffington Post reporter Ryan Grim put on his best conceited act and expressed that the Supreme Court just doesn't have great brains on it, and they're not qualified to overturn Obamacare.

Ezra Klein Describes Soros-Funded Brennan Center as 'Non Partisan

Whenever a liberal labels an organization "non partisan," consider yourself duly alerted that it is nothing of the kind. Here is what said liberal is actually saying if he or she could stomach the candor -- This is an organization that shares my views.
