Politico has an article out about Sarah Palin and her 24,000 pages of emails, featured on the front page of my local newspaper, the Post and Courier (P&C has teamed up with Politico for the election season)This is quite a feat. Even as Molly Ball acknowledges that the release of Palin’s emails show her to [...]

MSNBC’s Keith Olbermann, master of faux outrage, has once again jumped the shark with his latest righteous diatribe: In the aftermath of the shooting of 19 people in an attempted assassination of Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, D-Ariz., Countdown’s Keith Olbermann reminds Americans that “violence, or the threat of violence, has no place in our democracy.” This [...]

Back stabbing, Race baiting, representative, Jim Clyburn, is jumping on the Democratic-fueled baseless claim that political rhetoric was to blame in the recent tragic shooting in Tucson, Arizona. Bear in mind, there is ZERO evidence to support the instantaneous claim that Sarah Palin and the Tea Party were to blame for this attack against the [...]

The riot organizers in London on Wednesday were NOT students. If you see the name ACORN International surface as the force behind this “community organized” hijacking, you should not be surprised. First. In Great Britain the phrase Middle Class is near equivalent to the phrase Upper Class in the U.S. A spokeswoman for the student [...]

In their article Pelosi Vents About Gibbs, Politico writers Jonathan Allen and John Bresnahan shared that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi bashed White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs Tuesday night, even as the president’s top spokesman continued to backpedal from his assertion that Democrats could lose control of the House in the November election. “How could [...]

Recently, Sec. Hillary Clinton made news by telling an Ecuadorean reporter that, sure enough, Obama plans to sue Arizona over its new law. Huh. That was news to Gov. Brewer. Nice way for her to find out for sure. But it begs the question, why. Why is Obama suing Arizona over its new law for [...]

If you mean the White House and some unions, the answer would be a resounding, YES! W.H., Labor To Vote-Switchers: We Won’t Forget. You may recall that I wrote about this very real possibility recently in, “Toddler in Chief Throws A Temper Tantrum,” based on a story from The Telegraph (U.K.). Now, it seems, not [...]

Last week, we reported about an ethics scandal brewing at the WaPo, wherein lots of backpedaling, minimizing and all around denials were the order of the day. All can be read here. Hat tip to Ed Morrissey and HotAir for closely monitoring these developments. Now, thanks to Ombudsman Andrew Alexander, today’s article in WaPo, A [...]

From Politico‘s story, “Obama to GOP: ‘I won’“: President Obama listened to Republican gripes about his stimulus package during a meeting with congressional leaders Friday morning – but he also left no doubt about who’s in charge of these negotiations. “I won,” Obama noted matter-of-factly, according to sources familiar with the conversation. The exchange arose [...]

This morning Ben Smith over at Poltico had this to say about McCain: John McCain has an uphill battle to convince voters that he and his party — who have been governing for the last eight years — aren’t responsible for the current financial crisis. But he also has a case to make, in the [...]

With all the media hype surrounding Barry’s “very personal” choice for VP (snark), Backtrack’s flip flops have been neatly swept under the rug. Let’s review. From the July 5 edition of Politico: Obama has been espousing positions anathema to the left on several issues. On Iraq, Obama said Thursday that his upcoming trip there might [...]

The so far left that they forgot what is right wing of the Democratic party has taken a new tact. They have decided that they don’t really have a problem with swiftboating after all. Just as long as the shoe is on the other foot. And Republicans are the ones wearing it. Starting this week [...]

Last night’s Politico article by Roger Simon is particularly offensive. He not only offends Hillary but does his best to minimize the importance of the nearly 18 million people that voted for her. And as one of those record breaking millions I am mad as hell. I am sure you know the rest. Obama’s first [...]

UPDATE x2, 02/27 a.m.: It’s okay, people! Ben Smith has cleared it all up in an update to his post yesterday: “UPDATE: There’s been a bit of confusion about Axelrod’s line on the kids, who — as the Guardian’s Daniel Nasaw noted — aren’t the same age. Obama’s kids went go the the University of [...]

UPDATE: Jerome Armstrong takes down the “progressive” bloggers who’ve bought Drudge’s allegation that Clinton’s people pushed this photograph. (Half the people posting comments in my diary on this at MyDD are doing the “when did you stop beating your wife” thing, and apparently believe that you’re guilty until you’re proven innocent.) Armstrong adds, “Drudge is [...]
