How to Skew a Poll and more Moonbat Mania

Update: Something Strange here: The poll has registered another 69,063 votes (an increase of 27%) as of this morning yet the percentages haven’t moved a bit. In fact you will note that the yes vote is the same today as it was at 4:445 yesterday when the Daily Kos crowd tried to take the poll [...]

What the media sees fit to report about news out of Iraq

The paradigm is so different than it was during WWII. When our troops successfully route bad guys, it gets covered and forgotten. When a minute fraction of our troops are accused of having killed civilians the news keeps being regurgitated like a bad meal.

UK "Drama" Depicts the Assassination of President Bush

The filmmaker snuck it in under the covers by shortening the name to the phonetically self describing acronym "D.O.A.P.". Yup, the sniveling piece of crap is too scared to list the full name so he does the typical liberal thing and hides behind an acronym.

Socialism by the Hour

It was interesting to see the New York Times run an editorial that called for a change in the way patients insurers pay for health care without explicitly advocating universal health care. Especially considering that the solution in the editorial would ultimately result in higher health care costs for everyone.
But then I decided to [...]

Another Perspective on Topinka’s Proposal

Dan over at MoveOnandShutUp.org has taken umbrage with one of my recent posts. Dan is a firm supporter of Judy Baar Topinka and considers her a pragmatic politician. Dan also deals in wide and sweeping generalizations about people like the examples below:
The Christian Right or the South of I-80 Right is equally as disenfranchised as [...]

Where’s the Righteous Uproar?

Gitmo. Abu Ghraib.
Just the names invoke a reflex of outrage that the United States would, according to the Muslims and their apologists, stoop so low as to do as much as harm one hair on the head of one poor jihadist who was captured trying to kill us.
Rage by Muslims who feel their religion offended. [...]

Let’s Blame Bush For This Too

First helping thwart the Terror in the Skies plot, then generating good economic news and now lower gas prices!!! Oh my gosh; there is no limit to the depths that evil Republicans will go to generate votes!!

Liberal Misunderstanding in Threat Assessment

History without Context

Darrin Bell, author of Candorville provides us with yet another reason to shake our heads in disbelief. Equating the events that took place at the very founding of our nation with the current geopolitical situation is not only inaccurate, it is immature and simplisitc at its very root.
The strip pictured above is [...]

NY Times can't find way to Credit Bush Administration for the Economy

I heard that a newspaper exists to provide a service to the people. If this is true then perhaps the nation would be better served if the New York Times closed shop.

Useless Idiots Ignoring Conventional Lessons

It hasn’t taken long for just a whiff of potential military confrontation with Iran for Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s American lawyer wannabes to come out from under their rocks. Now that Saddam Hussein’s trial (at least his first) is over and his execution inevitable, his amateur pundit defense team is free to begin their rigorous defense [...]
