Liberal Smear Group "Media Matters" Tied to Clintons

The recent media frenzies over alleged remarks by Bill O'Reilly and Rush Limbaugh were orchestrated largely by a group called Media Matters. Evidently, a better name would be Credility Doesn't Matter. In these two instances, it has proven itself to be nothing but another MoveOn.org-like liberal... Sign in to see full entry.

"Soldier" Claiming Atrocities Exposed, Limbaugh Accused of Smearing Troops

Some stories are just too rich. This is one of them. Yesterday, Rush Limbaugh discussed one “Corporal” Jesse MacBeth. MacBeth, not to be confused with someone from Shakespear, endeared himself to the anti-war left by claiming to be an Army Ranger and, in the style of John Kerry, to have been wounded...

George Soros’ Secret Funding of Liberal Causes a Threat to Open Democracy?

I just adore the left’s hypocrisy. The wealthy are evil and greedy, their line goes. They have no right to be so rich when there are so many poor. The rich must be punitively taxed in order to make everything fair. But much of the hard-core left’s agenda is being bankrolled and promoted by a very... Sign in to see full entry.

Is There Hope for American Academia After All?

Yesterday, I fired off a rant about how Columbia University welcomed Iranian dictator Mahmoud Ahmadinejad as former Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld's appointment as a visiting fellow to Stanford University's Hoover Imstitute was being protested. I bemoaned the willingness of those in allegedly... Sign in to see full entry.

What’s Wrong With American Academia: Rumsfeld Protested, Dictator Welcomed

Two recent stories caught my eye in how clearly they illustrate the rot at the heart of our institutions of so-called higher learning. In the first, Iranian dictator Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was personally invited by Columbia University president Lee C. Bollinger to speak at the University on Monday,... Sign in to see full entry.

Money over Honor: Shrillary Supports MoveOn.Org Smear of Petraeus

75 senators distinguished themselves today by voting in favor of a resolution condemning the recent smear of General David Petraeus by Democrat activist group MoveOn.org. Unbelievably, one of those voting against – all of whom, to no one’s surprise, were Democrats – was Commander in Chief wanna-be... Sign in to see full entry.

Senator Sherrod Brown Responds to the Writer - Or Does He?

A couple of posts down the line from this, I shared an open letter I wrote to my rookie Senator, Sherrod Brown (D-Ohio). In this letter I took him to task for his claim that al Qaeda is not in Iraq, and challenged him to take a stand against the efforts by his fellow Democrats, in Congress and at...

Alan Greenspan Says Bush Invaded Iraq for Oil - or Does He?

Much has been made about former Federal Reserve chairman Alan Greenspan's new book, in which he purportedly claimed President Bush invaded Iraq for oil. Little has been made about his actual intent. From http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/09/16/AR2007091601287_pf.html:... Sign in to see full entry.

Senator Sherrod Brown Denies al Qaeda's Presence in Iraq?

This is the text of a letter I have sent to Senator Sherrod Brown (D-Ohio), who from what I heard on a brief news interview doesn't believe we are fighting al Qaeda in Iraq: Dear Senator Brown: Please tell me I heard incorrectly this afternoon. I thought I heard you say on the news that we are not... Sign in to see full entry.

Petraeus’ Testimony Requires Suspension of Disbelief – Shrillary

That’s really what she said. In her way of kissing up to the Democrat moneybags at moveon.org by joining them in calling him a liar, she said his testimony requires a willful suspension of disbelief: “ 'You have been made the de facto spokesman for what many of us believe to be a failed policy in...
