Fudgy Pop-Off: Bob Beckel’s “Oh Fuuuudge!” Moment on Live TV

"Only I didn't say "Fudge." I said THE word, the big one, the queen-mother of dirty words, the "F-dash-dash-dash" word! It was all over - I was dead. What would it be? The guillotine? Hanging? The chair? The rack? The Chinese water torture? Hmmph. Mere child's play compared to what surely awaited me."
Just bite [...]

NBC’s Implausible and Impossible “Mistake”

A follow-up to a previous post.
PJTV illustrates the unlikelihood of NBC's assertion that the racial-editing of the George Zimmerman 911 call was an accident or a "mistake".

Breitbart's John Nolte reminds everyone this makes at least three times NBC/MSNBC has been caught editing to fit their race-hustling agenda in the last three years ... and that [...]

Adaptation…

I have been saying the same thing for the last few years (emphasis mine)...
The Associated Press describes itself as “the essential global news network.”
It is indeed essential — to Barack Obama, and for the next seven months, his reelection campaign. Recent management actions and “news” coverage at the AP confirm that it is no longer [...]

Electile Dysfunction … When The Unicorn Horn Goes Limp

As I replied to the Peggy Noonan commentary link Jim Treacher posted on his Face Book status I realized my multiple comments were pretty much my own commentary in progress, so I went with it...
As we approach the most important election of this nation's history those that praised Obama in 2008, some that grace our [...]

Time To Stop Punching Ovaries … Right or Left … And Get To The Meat

Don't get me wrong here. I am not advocating pulling back on free speech, I do want to point out the abuses, and then the hypocritical aghast angst and outrage those that flaunt, and even abuse, their free speech feign.
Let's be clear here. The terminology Rush Limbaugh used in reference to activist and democrat operative [...]

Andrew Breitbart: “F*** You … War!”

The "Hating Breitbart" film is set for release in the spring or summer of 2012. Here is the trailer (safe for work ... heh!):

Looks like fun! In case you missed it, here is Andrew's CPAC 2012 speech where he hit a lot of great points, and discussed his private dinner with Bill Ayers and Bernadine [...]

We’re All Just “Dumb” Socialists Now

Self-proclaimed "conservative" Andrew "Who is Trig Palin's Real Mom?" Sullivan has written a piece for Mad Magaz-- huh? Oh, yeah, for the yet unpublished issue of Newsweek ... right. I believe it is meant to move a bit away from calling Obama's opposition and vocal critics "racists" to just simply being "dumb". Yeah, that'll work. [...]

The OWS Makes Moves to Govern Itself, Discouraging Involvement With Local Law Enforcement

Not surprisingly the MSM refuses to cover the actual "Occupy Wall Street" doings that, in all reality, are so far outside the slobbery and fawning fictional Hollywood 'revolution' romance quality of news coverage they have been spinning. Theft within the squatter community itself, vandalizing of property and bullying of private businesses that are trying to [...]

As Questionable Support for The OWS Grows, Obama Climbs on The Bus

Hey, the "Occupy Wall Street" gang has now garnered the support of China. This is in addition to all those other stellar folks, blokes, and notorious groups who have jumped on board the disenfranchised trust fund babies train who majored in useless courses at robber baron universities (yeah, they're in it for the big bucks [...]

The Growing Underlying “Kristallnacht” Behind OWS and The Media Malpractice Enabling It

In the last few weeks only the blogs have exposed the anti-Semitic/anti-Jews videos and photos of the vocal rhetoric and signs evident in the crowd known as "Occupy Wall Street" (with satellite protests throughout other major cities in the country). Here is the latest on video. What is even more chilling is the woman in [...]

Media Perception

So, this is what it looked like when the dinosaurs died off...
Did you happen to catch the photos of an Occupy Wall Street protester exercising his First Amendment rights by defecating on an NYPD patrol car?
Probably not -- unless you follow a British newspaper online.
How about the bizarre chanting ritual by the demonstrators of Occupy [...]

The Shady Lady’s Own Crony Capitalism Comes To Light

All the green being thrown at "Green" should have us all seeing Red ...That's if the MSM would cover these stories with as much vinegar as they always seem to cover anything Halliburton. But they won't, because it is a democrat administration, and that's different. Not to mention the administration's biggest media support comes from [...]

Stating Reality: The Palestinian’s Declaring Statehood Could Mean A Loss in The States for Obama

The Palestinians are all pumped-up to meet the U.N. head-on and declare a Palestinian state for themselves. So who does the Palestinian Authority choose to send to the U.N. to speak out for a recognized state? The "mother of seven prisoners and of the Shahid (Martyr) Abd Al-Mun'im Abu Hmeid." Four of those sons are [...]

Tattooing The American Media

(Yeah, it's a photoshop...)
Rex Murphy at The National Post delivers a very well played, and overdue, touché of the American MSM. I did a bit of difficult truncating. Difficult because every word was so-o-o-o delectable ... Be sure to read it in full.
In the main, the establishment American media abandoned its critical faculties during the [...]

You Know, Jay … Just So We’re Clear Going Into The 2012 Election Cycle

Pretty much everyhting I have said since January to this point, including this current "Labor Day" episode, regarding colorful political battle rhetoric post-Tucson shooting is laid-out at HotAir, so I'll just say, "Ditto!"
The background on what is being discussed between ABC's Jake Tapper and Obama's apologist Jay Carney is here.

But you have to give a [...]

Ignorant Leftist MSNBC Boob Demands Sen. Marco Rubio Debate Him

Honestly, Ed … You REALLY want a ‘split screen’ with yourself and Marco Rubio?
Physical aesthetics aside, the unchained Marxist lunacy you wouldn't be able to contain in order to carry through a true 'debate' would make it an even uglier image. Rubio would barely need to exhale a word to show your ignorance and stupidity.
Bring [...]

MSNBC’s Psycho Talking Slug Attacks Sen. Marco Rubio

Once again Eddie practices "cherry-picking" out of context and loose editing to make his point fit an agenda. If you take the time to listen to a Paul Ryan plan, or more specifically to the full context of Rubio's speech you'll find Marco Rubio was saying the complete opposite of what the MSNBC dolt Schultz [...]

Finding Dr. Sanjay Gupta in Cuba: “I found in him a refusal to subscribe to the Oliver Stone/Michael Moore school of willful blindness…”

Frances Martel at Mediaite has written a lengthy article interviewing CNN's Dr. Sanjay Gupta in Havanna, Cuba. Dr. Gupta is in Cuba to investigate for himself the facts about Cuba's healthcare system that everyone seems determined to hold up as a prime example of a successful government/state-run system. Democrats, Hollywood celebrities such as Michael Moore [...]

Things Not Done by TEA Party “Terrorists” and “Hostage-Takers”

Just a year ago we were treated to the "union label" mentality as bus loads of SEIU members stormed and flooded the private property of a bank executive's home ... who wasn't home ... but his lone teen son was. To say the kid was terrorized would be an understatement.
Since late last winter Madison, WI [...]

When is a working “burger-flipper” a good employment figure?

Of course, with Gov. Perry tossing his Ten Gallon Hat into the GOP race for the 2012 POTUS ticket, the MSM has to get busy fast on 'deconstructing' the man whose state has led the nation in growing employment (yes, it's "employment", not "unemployment" ... no typo), business growth, and strong economy. Perry might very [...]
