The Honeymoon Continues »

I came across this article on Tuesday by Jonah Goldberg, “Day 15 of Obama’s honeymoon“: One doesn’t have to break a sweat searching for examples of the news media’s ongoing love affair with our president. In this, he is like FDR. I have to say, on some levels it was reassuring. Apparently, the country has [...]

Why Is Anyone Surprised By »

This: Obama’s speechwriter, Jon Favreau, demonstrating who he, and so many of those associated with Obama, is: a misogynistic, juvenile pig who has disrespected the Former First Lady of Arkansas, a Top 100 Attorneys in the United States TWICE, the former First Lady of the United States, a two term US Senator, the RIGHTFUL Democratic [...]

“Elevation” »

The other day, I posted a fun piece with the help of The Onion, my favorite site for lightening things up a bit. As a result, alert NQ reader, AF Catfish, provided me with the following article. It is not from The Onion, or even from Mad Magazine, but it could be. No, it’s from [...]

Tweety’s hubris and Thank Heaven for Jon Stewart »

As you probably know, Tweety is either getting ready to run for a Senate seat in PA or just trying to squeeze more dollars out of MSNBC. Now this is really a “revoltin development.” Politico had this to say: If Matthews is serious about running, some within the network hope he commits to the Pennsylvania [...]

Clinton Derangement Syndrome: It’s just like herpes. Incurable and can rear its ugly head at any time. »

“Barack Obama has superior judgment.” If the Detroit ‘Big Three’ had a dollar for every time a derivative of that phrase was uttered over the last two years, no bailout would be necessary. Not even the automakers could blow through that amount of cash. The President-elect’s brilliance was the number one reason we were supposed [...]

Chris Matthews and Chris Hitchens: Misogyny Squared, Hypocrisy Cubed »

I had the supreme misfortune of watching the ever moronic, self-important Mr. Tingle-Up-His-Leg-Matthews interview Chris Hitchens of Vanity Fair, and Peter Beinart of Time Magazine in reference to the buzz about Senator Hillary Clinton being offered the position of Secretary of State in Barack Obama’s incoming administration. Let’s put it this way, one should never [...]

The Sexism Continues… »

The headline on the MSN homepage (via MSNBC) declares, “Dem sources: Clinton to help wife get State job.” This headline refers to the fact that President Clinton is disclosing his financial records and those of his charitable work. But the sexist opportunity was too good for MSNBC to pass up. President Clinton is not helping [...]

Has Hillary (OR BILL) Been Vetted Enough?? »

(bumped up by NoQuarter) Well, you all know where I stand on the Hillary as Secretary of State thing. I think she would be brilliant, probably the best SoS in the history of Secretaries of States. Presumably, though, those Secretaries of State could trust (more or less) the president whom they served. Clinton? Not so [...]

Open Thread * Tie Your Hands Behind Your Back Before … [Update With The Best News!] »

… you view this video. I am afraid what you might do to your computer or your monitor if you view this exchange on Hardball, unless you’ve first secured your hands. Promise me you’ve restrained your hands in some way. Okay? Now click the arrow. I know, I know … it’s disgusting and reprehensible. UPDATE [...]

Media tells stories THEY want to tell to people they don’t respect. »

I think we make a mistake when we media consumers get angry over poor coverage or bad reporting of people or topics of interest. We assume that those doing the reporting simply don’t understand the topic or dislike the person. Maybe, maybe not. But I do think the media in general exhibit a profound dislike [...]

News on Chris Matthews’ Leg »

As if it hasn’t been obvious for months, Chris Matthews declares that his job is help Barack Obama:

A Little Humor * Late Night & Early Bird Open Thread!* »

My aunt sent this to me today:

The Media Conga Line to Fellate Obama »

For those of you offended by the sexual imagery I can’t apologize. When you have the likes of Chris Matthews talking about the tingle up his leg from hearing Obama speak I can think of no other term more appropriate than one normally used to define oral sex in polite company. As we have seen, [...]

“Unleashed, Palin Makes a Pit Bull Look Tame” »

Sarah Palin has become my new hero. While I don’t agree with some of her political positions, I love that she is unapologetically herself. And she is a REAL feminist, representing many of us who don’t toe the line of some definition of what that is. The so-called “progressives,” men and women alike, don’t approve [...]

MSNBC Goes Off the Rails [Update] »

UPDATE from SusanUnPC: Check out Memeorandum.com’s coverage of this story, including a Wall Street Journal story, “MSNBC Anchors’ Fight Goes Live.” ……………………………………………. I don’t watch MSNBC, but the folks over at Olbermann Watch are doing a heck of a job tracking that dysfunctional group. Check this out: God forgive me for ever comparing Olbermann to [...]
