Learning that Jonathan Alter (nee of Newsweek) had written a “glowing” article about Secretary Hillary Clinton for Vanity Fair entitled Woman of the World, I became suspicious. This was, after all, one of the media bullies who demanded Hillary drop out of the 2008 race for the presidential nomination in mid February to preserve her [...]

Better late than never? I think not, baby puppy. It is April, 2011 and ex-Wisconsin Senator and favorite principled liberal Russ Feingold finally noticed a conflict of interest with having GE’s CEO Jeffrey Immelt as head of the President’s advisory council on job creation. Ya think? According to CBS and The Hill: Former Sen. Russ [...]

In a scathing review of Tina Brown’s re-launch of Newsweek, Slate’s editor-at-large Jack Shafer betrayed himself as another in a long list of journalists and pundits who find women bring little of use to the table. While I have had reason to fault Newsweek in the past for their biased coverage negating qualified female political [...]

That is the word Dr. Charles Krauthammer used to describe the attempt by the left to blame Sarah Palin and the Tea Party for the horrible tragedy in Tucson, an action carried out by a mad man. It seems rather an appropriate term, not just for their unfounded claims, but for some of the claims [...]

*This importance treatise on the Obama presidency has been bumped up * During the presidential campaign, Peggy Noonan rhapsodized about an Obama presidency, trashing Hillary Clinton to the bargain. Recent months have seen Ms. Noonan pen several articles deconstructing her prior romantic notions, reaching the same conclusions as the very people she derided for not [...]

Last night, Hannity of FOX News had two female panelists, both conservatives, discussing Sarah Palin’s new book, her great success selling 300,000 copies the first day and the derangement syndrome of the left in trashing her and calling her “dangerous.” Obama’s campaign arm, Organizing for America, is looking to raise $500,000 to combat this “dangerous” [...]

Have you seen this “News”Week cover? Never mind the title of the article, excuse me, the EDITORIAL, that goes along with the cover: Holy smokes. Needless to say, there has been a LOT of discussion about this photograph, and why Newsweek would choose to run this particular photo. Taylor Marsh – former Clinton supporter now [...]

In Newsweek, Howard Fineman opines about The Limits of Charisma. When sycophants like Fineman say “Mr. President, please stay off TV” and are worried enough to warn the President that it’s time to fish or cut bait, we are all in hot water. My fellow writers and I have posted many stories these last two [...]

What is the Constitutionality of a Newspaper Bailout? That was the question recently posed by Jeff Bercovici of Conde Nast’s Portfolio.com. This issue has come to the fore because various members of Congress are currently considering such an action. Without even commenting as to any possible First Amendment breach by virtue of news organizations being [...]

It is after all my treasure trove of crap. The New Global Elite This week is the year end, double issue featuring the most powerful people in the world. They call them The Global Elite. Elite and proud of it would be my conjecture. First piss off is the Conventional Wisdom/Up or Down graphic column. [...]

I hope Barack Obama sends a nice Christmas or Kwanzaa present to George W. Bush. Without the debacle of the Bush Administration Barack would not have had a shot at winning the White House. Widespread disgust over the war in Iraq, the collapse of the financial industry in September and October, and Barack’s massive campaign [...]

And don’t you know it: we heard from another Obama acolyte (see the following article entitled “Hillary To Save Obama’s Hindquarters”) this week. Yes, Governor Kathleen “my teenage son told me I had to support Obama” Sebelius of Kansas decided she just couldn’t keep her mouth shut. Nope! She had to make sure her 2 [...]

How glorious. Glow Fading? A month after emerging victorious from the bruising Democratic nominating contest, some of Barack Obama‘s glow may be fading. In the latest NEWSWEEK Poll, the Illinois senator leads Republican nominee John McCain by just 3 percentage points, 44 percent to 41 percent. The statistical dead heat is a marked change from [...]
