Rep. Frederica Wilson Cites 'Racism' First To Explain Black Unemployme
It's got to be the hat . . .
In an entertaining interview with Tamron Hall on MSNBC this afternoon, Dem congresswoman Frederica Wilson of Florida cited "racism" first among causes of high black unemployment. She also: called for a second stimulus; said now is not the time to criticize President Obama; took a sideways swipe at Maxine Waters; and asserted President Obama would be defeated for…
Tamron Hall Chides Ex-Bush Aide for Not Cheering Obama on Libya
Want to watch an MSM version of Stand By Your Man? Check out the video here after the jump. Tamron Hall, theoretically an MSNBC show "host" and not a pundit, gets visibly upset with Michael Singh, a former foreign policy adviser to President George W. Bush. Singh's sin? Apparently being insufficiently enthusiastic in his praise of President Obama's handling of the Libyan situation.

Time Magazine's Scherer Insists: Obama Has a Plan
Appearing on MSNBC this afternoon, Time Magazine's Michael Scherer set out to debunk a non-existent Republican red herring on the debt ceiling debate on Friday's News Nation. "The President has been negotiating behind the scenes, has put forward a number of proposals and he's gone public with the outlines of a proposal he is willing to accept," said Scherer.
MSNBC Regular Dyson: Reaganism Imposed 'In Fascist Fashion
logorrhea: excessive and often incoherent talkativeness or wordiness. -- Merriam Webster
When watching lefty professor and MSNBC regular Michael Eric Dyson, the notion often occurs to me that the man suffers from the condition described above. Just yesterday, as James Taranto noted in his Best of the Web column at WSJ online, Dyson digressed, during an MSNBC appearance, into a riff to the…
MSNBC's Hall Notes 'Boom Towns' in South, Fails to Consider Low Taxes
MSNBC "NewsNation" anchor and Texas native Tamron Hall was delighted to find that four Lone Star cities made it to Forbes.com's list of "The Next Big Boom Towns in the U.S."
"Forbes [magazine] says many of the cities on the list have some of the best job creation records in the nation," Hall noted as she introduced contributor Joel Kotkin, who authored the July 6 piece.
Kotkin identified…

Yo, Cenk: If Ryan's 26% Unfavorable Rating 'Disastrous,' What's Pelosi
And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? -- Matthew 7:4
On a somewhat slow Thursday night, let's have a good chuckle. On his MSNBC show this evening, Cenk Uygur jumped on a poll showing Paul Ryan with a 26% unfavorability rating to declare that America "can't stand" the Wisconsin congressman and that the 26%…
Cenk Uygur: 'Republican Vision Of Jesus--Tell Poor And Needy To Pound
I'm going to sit back and let our readers run with this one. On his MSNBC show tonight, Cenk Uygur said that "the Republican vision of Jesus" is "to tell the poor and needy to pound sand."
Uygur offered his twisted theological take in commenting on a GOP proposal to trim allocations to a certain welfare program.

In Speech On Tough Times For Americans, Obama Brags 'I Have Better Pla
Imagine a Republican president giving a speech on tough economic times in which he claimed that the plight of Americans who are hurting is what is on his mind every day as he walks to the Oval Office. Imagine that same Republican president, in that same speech, bragging that he has "a better plane" and "a bigger entourage" than when he was a candidate. Now imagine the howls from the MSM about…
Former CNNer Bob Franken: Pawlenty Plotting 'Oligarchy
It takes a former CNN "correspondent" to make Tim Pawlenty sound scary . . .
It's kind of fun to watch former MSM "reporters" turn into totally-out, liberal partisans once they leave their "reporting" gigs. Take Bob Franken. For years a big-time national correspondent for CNN, the network let him go in 2007. Franken is now free to let his liberal freak flag fly.
Witness Bob on MSNBC this…
Larry O'Donnell: Most Voters 'Don't Really Know Anything About The Eco
The MSM and their liberal politician friends revel in proclaiming their admiration for average Americans. But scratch a liberal, and find condescending contempt for the people they pretend to glorify.
Take Larry O'Donnell. On his MSNBC show this evening, discussing President Obama's problems in convincing voters that the economy is on the road to recovery, O'Donnell denigrated most Americans…
MSNBC Union Guest: Republicans 'Literally Deny Clothing To Foster Kids
Kind of disappointing--nothing about Republicans head-butting widows or knocking the crutches from the arms of the disabled. Even so, let's give Damon Silvers credit: the union boss did claim that Republicans "literally deny clothing to foster kids to give rich people tax cuts."
AFL-CIO honcho Damon Silvers made the hysterically hyperbolic claim on Cenk Uygur's MSNBC show this evening.…
MSNBC Host Uygur: Obama Speech 'Leaning Too Much Towards Israel
Republicans have responded with widespread opprobrium to President Obama's speech on the Middle East. Mitt Romney epitomized GOP reaction in saying PBO had "thrown Israel under the bus."
Perhaps we shouldn't be too surprised, but at MSNBC, Obama was actually criticized last night . . . for not being hard enough on Israel. Cenk Uygur said "the president's speech was too much leaning…
Suddenly, Cenk Wants People To Chant 'USA, USA
What does it take to make a lefty MSMer go all Chuck Norris? A war-on-terrorism success during a Dem presidency, of course.
On his MSNBC show tonight, Cenk Uygur, of all people, regretted that more Americans aren't chanting "USA, USA!"
