Over at the NY Post, Michael Goodwin argues that the NY Times’ cheerleading for Obamacare harms the nation, noting that watchdogs became lapdogs.

CNN Really Psyched That Government Has Reopened

Even though only 17% of the government was (supposedly) shutdown, the cheerleaders at CNN are super happy. How happy? With a massive graphic I caught this CNN graphic while I was walking through the customer waiting room on my way in with lunch, and had to literally take a couple steps back in a pseudo […]

Fact Checker: Three Pinocchio’s For Factually True Statements On Obamacare

Facts are apparently false. Here’s the Washington Post’s fact checker, Glenn Kessler, giving it the old college try to protect the “Affordable” Care Act, something many, many liberals, and ultra squishy “Republicans” who spend more time bashing Republicans than Democrats, have tried before “The president has exempted over 1,200 groups, including members of Congress, from […]

Washington Post: Republicans Owe Capitol Police A Paycheck And Apology After Shooting

Apparently this will become a meme (at least for me) as the sorta-shutdown continues, with the Washington Post Editorial Board sipping the sweet sweet kool-aid of demagoguery. Remember, they aren’t “rabid partisans“, same as Senator Dianne Feinstein. This one gets even more non-rabidly partisan In shooting near Capitol, government workers rush into danger (Two paragraphs […]

Today, worse insults emanating from Democrats are treated a wee bit differently House Democrats lash out at GOP over shutdown Visibly angry and at times raising their voices, House Democrats slammed Republicans for sending Washington […]

Politico Has Hissy Fit Over GOP Using Mild Insults

Really, Republicans are damned if they do damned if they don’t in the majority of American media, so they might as well do Republicans toss insults at Harry Reid Washington’s shutdown blame game is already in full force – and the government isn’t even closed yet. About 20 House Republicans gathered on the steps of […]

It’s One Blow After Another To ObamaCare

Politico finally notices that Obamacare is a train wreck. Of course, said train wreck is based on a throwaway line the Obama campaign came up with on the spur of the moment because Obama knew nothing about healthcare prior to attending a campaign event. This follows on the heals of the Washington Post noticing that […]

Strange: Law Stopped Aaron Alexis From Purchasing Scary Looking Rifle, Instead Bought “Law Enforcement Syle Shotgun”

I wonder if Piers “Musket” Morgan will mention this on his show tonight for his 10 viewers? And, shockingly, this appeared in the NY Times.
