(h/t: Ace) Journalism Is Dead: Part 1,749,212. The Associated Press must have wandered too far outside of its Obama Comfort Zone last week when it attempted an open act of journalism after the president’s health care speech. Not to worry, their lips are dutifully crowding the executive derriere once more. Assessing the ever-dimming prospects for [...]

He really is magic. In the time it took President Obama to speak 510 words, 17 million previously uninsured people got a visit from the Aetna Fairy. There are now more than 30 million American citizens who cannot get coverage. The man giving the speech was an identical twin of the man who just spent [...]

Off Their Meds, Installment 6,432. Tommy Friedman was allowed out without supervision again and managed to produce and another stunningly oblivious assessment of the world as he perceives it to be outside of the Manhattan Media Bubble. Watching both the health care and climate/energy debates in Congress, it is hard not to draw the following [...]

Or not. One of the enduring myths of this Summer of Health Care Reform Discontent is that Congressional Republicans are somehow stonewalling the process and running a massive disinformation campaign. Both of these claims ignore a couple of glaring facts: Republicans in Washington don’t have the numbers to stonewall anything and they aren’t even influential [...]

Finally! A member of the MSM notices that Obama himself (rather than just his subordinates) may be making some mistakes. But not before he calls the president’s detractors lying, homicidal racists. Joe Klein, whose two largest orifices tend to be indistinguishable, dismisses all rational arguments against the Obama vision of health care reform and assumes [...]

(To be videotaped in Smug-O-Vision) Hello. I’m President Barack Obama and I’m very grateful for this opportunity to speak to the people I feel are most important to the future of America, and to you students too. Many thanks to the National Education Association and the American Federation of Teachers for letting me into your [...]

Dare to dream, citizens, dare to dream. If they could vote to keep or replace the entire Congress, just 25% of voters nationowide would keep the current batch of legislators. A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 57% would vote to replace the entire Congress and start all over again. Eighteen percent (18%) [...]

Wow, Sarah Palin said something else I agree with. Didn’t see that coming (insert winking emoticon here). The toughest guy in the GOP continues to be the allegedly washed-up and irrelevant former Governor of Alaska who is using social media to get her message out while the RNC keeps sending me letters. As Governor of [...]

I’ve been checking out my copy of the Constitution and I’m still unable to find anything regarding a ruling class of elitist jackasses who refuse to interact with the people who elected them. Sherrod Brown isn’t the only one who doesn’t get it. As the health care clown carnival rolls into each new town a [...]

This should slow down the Charge of the Lightbringer Brigade sooner or later. Fifty-four percent (54%) of U.S. voters say tax cuts for the middle class are more important than new spending for health care reform, even as President Obama’s top economic advisers signal that tax hikes may be necessary. That’s not exactly the kind [...]
