Snowden Enabler Glenn Greenwald's CAIR Connection

July 20th, 2014 7:32 AM
While the liberal media establishment have a thinly disguised soft spot for massive leaker Edward Snowden and his enabler Glenn Greenwald, the editorial writers at Investor’s Business Daily offered an incredible take this week on how these men are “aiding and abetting the Islamist enemy.” They released the names of several Muslim terrorist targets under surveillance by the NSA and FBI in a…

IBD Poll: 60 Percent Want Alien Minors to Be Sent Home

July 11th, 2014 2:03 PM
Here's a poll you won't see the liberal networks and newspapers organizing. The newspaper Investor's Business Daily conducted a poll asking: "What should be done in response to the influx of unaccompanied minors?" The options were "Order them to leave," "Let stay and become citizens," or "Not sure." The poll results reported on Friday were not close. Go rather than stay, by 60 to 28:

Networks Ignore Damning Report on ObamaCare Enrollment Problems

July 2nd, 2014 1:45 PM
On Tuesday evening and Wednesday morning, all three broadcast news networks and the two largest Spanish language evening network newscasts refused to cover disturbing news regarding ObamaCare.

AP Pair Continues the 'No WMDs' Lie, Defines Anyone Who Doesn't Suppor

June 17th, 2014 4:23 PM
The Obama administration doesn't have a plan for dealing with the crisis in Iraq. The left apparently believes it's up to obviously out of power "neocons" to have a plan. Though he has dispatched 275 military advisors to that country, his virtual ultimatum to that Iraq Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki — no angel by any stretch, but still a better alternative to a civil war or an ISIS-run…

Press Tries to Discredit Conservatives With Cliven Bundy, Ignores Larg

April 25th, 2014 12:12 AM
The press and the left are trying to pretend that Cliven Bundy, the Republican Party, and conservatism are all one and the same, despite no evidence of that being the case, because of intemperate things Mr. Bundy has said. Meanwhile, there is deafening silence over the very real actions of Gurbaksh Chahal, a significant Democratic Party donor who has expressed solidarity with liberalism and the…

NBC Omits Obama's Liberal-Angering Lament About 'Bureaucratic and Cumb

November 13th, 2013 7:03 AM
Here’s part of Chuck Todd’s interview with President Obama that never made it to air on an NBC News program. Obama said “When we buy I.T. services generally, it is so bureaucratic and so cumbersome that a whole bunch of it doesn't work or it ends up being way over cost. And yeah, in some ways, I should have anticipated that just because this was important and I was saying this was my top…

As Contrary Evidence Mounts, Establishment Press Ignores President's

September 29th, 2013 11:44 PM
Google News really needs to work on its results counter. The first page of its 10:15 p.m. search listings on [Obama "widespread evidence"] (typed exactly as indicated between brackets) tells us that there are "about 90 results," but moving to the second page of listed results shows there are only 11 (technically 13, because the first listing on the first page has three items). Those sparse…

Bloomberg: Social Media Is Only Useful If My Peeps Are Using It

March 29th, 2013 12:37 AM
New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg is at it again, telling us peons that we're not deserving of our full measure of yet another freedom, this time to express ourselves. As reported by Dana Rubenstein at CapitalNewYork.com (HT The Blaze), "As it turns out, Bloomberg, the highest-profile cheerleader for New York City's burgeoning tech scene, doesn't really like the social media revolution…

Press-Enabled EPA Issues New Rules Mandating Use of Fuels Which Don't

February 27th, 2013 8:35 AM
The rogue collection of bureaucrats known as the Environmental Protection Agency continues its lawless ways. The establishment press continues to serve as enablers. In January, a federal court vacated the EPA's regulations mandating the use of cellulosic biofuels which weren't produced at all until last year, and barely exist now. In response, the agency, directly defying the court, increased…

IBD: DOL Decision to Grant Hostess Workers 'Trade Adjustment Assistanc

February 25th, 2013 12:37 PM
An Investor's Business Daily editorial on Friday confirmed a couple of items which seemed intuitively obvious but which I didn't prove on Thursday in my post (at NewsBusters; at BizzyBlog) about the Department of Labor's outrageous decision to grant unionized workers at now-liquidating Hostess Bakeries "Trade Adjustment Assistance" (TAA). The first is that it will cost a lot of money,…

Absolutely Petty: AP's Juliet Williams Goes After 'Failed' Rick Perry

February 20th, 2013 9:57 PM
This goes back about ten days, and I originally missed it. Fortunately, though, an Investor's Business Daily editorial got around to mentioning Rick Perry's visit to California last week in an effort to lure businesses to the more commerce-friendly environs of Texas. Associated Press report Juliet Williams and her story's headline writer were not amused by Perry's aggressiveness. Williams…

IBD Notes Disturbing and Virtually Unreported Reduction of Retail Hour

February 5th, 2013 12:51 PM
In a Friday editorial, Investor's Business Daily picked up a disturbing downside in the January 2013 jobs report released by the government's Bureau of Labor Statistics earlier that day: More people are working, but they're working fewer hours per week. In certain sectors, including retail, the industry's aggregate hours worked actually shrank compared to January 2012. Memo to Chris Rugaber at…
