A Different Take On Secretary Clinton’s Africa Trip »

Faithful NQ reader, CG, mentioned recently that the Washington Post actually did a very nice article on Secretary Clinton’s recent trip to Africa. Well, you coulda knocked me over with a feather. This morning, in my daily “DipBlog” from the State Department, sure enough, there it was, along with a link to an [...]

WaPo Was Trying To Sell What…? [UPDATED] »

(This story was originally posted Friday — please be sure to check out tonight’s UPDATE at article’s end… )
This has got to be read to be believed. I know that the Washington Post is hard up for cash, but as Politico reports:
Washington Post publisher Katharine Weymouth said today she was canceling plans for an [...]

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 [...]

We Will Not Forget, We Women »

(Bumped up from yesterday afternoon by Susan, because Larry Johnson encourages women to promote their work, to be powerful, and to take charge! It is notable, and heartening, that Larry has one of the very few female-dominated groups of writers on any major blog, which tells you quite a bit about Larry, doesn’t it.
ALSO: [...]

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 [...]

NY Times: Media Falls for Hoax (Maybe Sarah Palin knows her geography after all) »

Here at No Quarter, we spend a lot of time discussing the shortcomings (and there are so many) of the so-called Main Stream Media. While I hate to give Rush Limbaugh a whole lot of credit for anything, he refers to them as the “Drive by Media” and it certainly is an [...]

Which Woman Shall We Blame Today??? »

Copyright © 2008 Uppity Woman. All Rights Reserved.

I remember a time when, if a woman was brutally raped, the cops would ask her,
“What were you wearing?”.

Those were the days, not so long past, when it was the woman’s fault if her husband kicked the crap out of her. She asked for it. It was also [...]

“WOMEN: IS THIS AN IMPORTANT ISSUE AND HAS IT BEEN ANSWERED TO YOUR SATISFACTION?” »

Like many of you before this election cycle, I never watched Fox News. In my naivete, I believed they were the bad guys and MoveOn were the good guys. Boy have things changed.
I now go to Fox before any of the other MSM, and while there are several excellent reporters there, my favorite is [...]

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 [...]

By the Numbers »

The disaster of the Bush Administration and the tarnished legacy of the Republican Congress would normally spell doom for the Republicans in the November election. But then you learn that the Democratic Congress is held in lower esteem than even the Bush Administration. I agree that the trend lines for McCain do not [...]

Breaking: “Paulson Pleaded for McCain to Save Bailout” »

Via Memeorandum, and from Newsbusters.org’s Mark Finkelstein:
So much for a "stunt."
John McCain got involved in the bailout negotiations after Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson told Sen. Lindsey Graham yesterday that the bailout plan would fail unless McCain came in and brought balky Republicans aboard. That’s what Bob Schieffer reported on this morning’s Early Show. [...]

Do You Want To Know Why, Barack? »

I have watched two women be trashed by my party–the party that is supposed to believe in “Equal Rights For Women”. In the process, Hillary Clinton broke Barack Obama’s Hopey Changey Magical Powers Wand and then the DNC dragged his limp butt over the line against the will of their constuents, never imagining that the [...]

Howard Fineman Enumerates Obama’s Electability Problems »

I’m rather astonished that Howard Fineman had the audacity to publish “Obama’s woes have nothing to do with ‘lipstick’” at MSNBC.com.
Fineman lists Obama’s numerous campaign problems — failing to take up John McCain’s offer for a series of town hall debates, wasting money in red states, remaining “trapped in professor-observer speak,” among others. Fineman’s [...]

Maybe? Maybe we drank the Kool-Aid »

The gang asked me to cross-post this from my site and dang, but I’m so proud and happy that I’ve been trusted to post at NoQ. Sends tingles down my big toe. Or is that the gout?
