obama: lord of the super fly »

“He’s a Harvard educated lawyer, leader of the free world and has the reflexes of a highly trained ninja. America’s enemies, beware.” ~ The Daily Beast

Oh, oops, wrong video, sorry. Here is the video the Daily Beast was referring to:

msnbc upset because *fierce advocate* obama not such a fierce advocate after all »

MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow is finding out that President Obama is not such an advocate of gay rights, after all. The funny thing is that Rachel couldn’t see through Obama all along. Now, she is complaining because the President msnbc helped get elected, pined over, and well, hell, got all tingly over, defended the Defense of [...]

margaret carlson writes dumbest article, ever »

Palin Can’t Outsmart Letterman
by Margaret Carlson
“The governor has spent much of her public life in high-pitched feuds—but taking on late night’s prince shows a complete lack of political sophistication.”
I left a comment telling Ms. Carlson how ridiculous I thought her article was, but they have yet to appear in the comment section at Daily Beast. [...]

“Prolonged Detention”?? »

(bumped up from early afternoon)
At my most recent post about Secretary Clinton providing full benefits to the GLBT Diplomat Corp, faithful No Quarter reader, Mountaires, had a comment which included the following video from the Rachel Maddow Show. As you know, and as I have mentioned a number of times, Rachel Maddow, and her [...]

dijon-gate hysteria »

Which scenario is more ridiculous:
Conservative pundits mock, laugh and poke fun at the Dijon Mustard Gate story…

The Liberal left is in an uproar because the Right poked fun at the Dijon-Gate…

Like Putting Lipstick On a Pig: Olbermann, Musto, and Yes, Jay Leno »

(bumped up from this morning)
As a liberal from way back, I must say, if anyone on the left allows themselves to be represented in thought or deed by the likes of Keith Olbermann and Village Voice’s Michael Musto, they really need to rethink their life choices. Jay Leno has also earned himself a spot [...]

Kits Languish On Shelves For Years, Or “Hey, It’s Only Rape After All” »

Okay, I admit it. I have been procrastinating writing up this post. No, it isn’t playing with the puppies (and I have found homes for at least one, if not two of them - yay!), though I have been enjoying their company. It’s not even the rain, much needed, that is falling. [...]

Tingle Up My Leg Award for Cable News »

Fox Cable News reduces its competitors to Lilliputs, who in this reference to Gulliver’s Travels, have been unable to catch Fox sleeping long enough to tie it down.
Instead, Fox is the winner of my Tingle Up My Leg Award, named for MSNBC’s Chris “Tweety” Matthews. Unfortunately for Tweety, his show commands [...]

Chris Matthews Thinks Michelle Obama Knows Her Place »

I would like to open this rant against the ever sexist blowhard Chris Matthews by sending a shout out and loving thank you to my husband — who would never behave in a disparaging way toward his partner, or toward any other woman for that matter. To my dear hubby, and all other men [...]

An Open Letter to Bill Maher »

Your op-ed in the LA Times on Friday, The GOP: divorced from reality, was really something to behold – a compendium of all the worst smears you could find, carelessly banding all those who oppose President Obama’s reckless actions on the economy into one group. I have never been a member of the GOP [...]

The Tortured Logic of the Torture Fans »

(bumped up from Friday evening)
Although Keith Olbermann has become something of an insufferable boor, he is finally on to something that I would pay money to watch but under specific conditions. First, check out Keith’s challenge:

Visit msnbc.com for Breaking News, World News, and News about the Economy

But here’s where I differ with Olbermann’s challenge. [...]

shuster can’t get enough of teabagging »

(bumped up from the afternoon)
David Shuster loves teabagging. He just can’t get enough of it. Full throated, tongue lashing, in your face teabagging.
How many puns can you count in this clip?

You’re going to need a *dick* army? Wow, funny stuff there, Shuster.

Cable TV News: Who Succeeds, Who Dumbs It Down »

RACHEL MADDOW, MSNBC: (Warning to Rachel: This will sting.)
Any liberal who has blamed the terrible quality of cable news discourse on its domination by conservatives should be reading Bob Somerby’s most recent series of articles on the vapidity of Rachel Maddow’s MSNBC show, which has become attracted a great deal of attention from liberal elites [...]

i just want to smack that smirk off taibbi’s face »

I started my day with this segment yesterday, and it pissed me off so bad, I wanted to reach through my computer and smack the smirk off that balding, fraggle toothed creep. (I was waiting for Morning Joe to start, and was subjected to this show.)
David Shuster is filling in for Tingle on Hardball, and [...]

Some Apologies from the Obamamedia Are in Order for Falsely Accusing New Hampshire Primary Voters of Racism »

Today the American Association for Public Opinion Research Ad Hoc Committee on the 2008 Presidential Primary Polling released a pdf report on the methodologies utilized by pollsters during the Democratic primaries. It is a long report, and a cursory analysis of it is available at Pollster.com. Much of the report focuses on the [...]

Bernard Goldberg Tells It Like It Is »

I would like to share with you this interesting article, courtesy of “I’m A Linda Too,” a regular reader here at No Quarter yesterday. It is quite something. A bit late in coming, perhaps, but hey, better late than never, right? The title pretty much gives it away: Media Critic Blasts Chris [...]

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 [...]
