While he puts the usual liberal spin on it, Greg Sargent at WaPo is correct that Obama sees his path forward as overwhelming Republicans.  Sargent writes:

Yesterday, President Obama used his Inaugural Address to lay out an expansive case for progressive governance, one rooted in the country’s founding, history and identity, vowing...

The big shock in the Supreme Court’s Obamacare ruling was not that the law was upheld.  Most people thought there was a substantial chance Justice Kennedy would side with the four liberal Justices.

But almost no one thought that it would be Chief Justice John Roberts who would be the swing vote,...

I haven’t been following this closely, but it bears attention.  The Michigan legislature last week passed “right to work” legislation which would deprive unions of automatic union dues deductions, among other things.

Already protests similar to what took place in Wisconsin have started at the Capitol in Lansing.  Via my favorite progressive...

Obama’s Middle East policy is in flames.  Literally, at multiple U.S. diplomatic locations which are sovereign U.S. territory.  The latest is the storming of the Embassy in Yemen, which is ongoing as of this writing.

Journalism also is in flames.  It’s back to 2008, with the media openly siding with Obama and...

The media moved with stunning symmetry this week is seeking any and every means of tearing down the Republican National Convention, and particularly Paul Ryan.

To borrow their favorite metaphor, it was as if someone blew a dog whistle that only the liberal media could hear.

Being the mainstream media means making birth control an election issue, then wondering aloud why birth control is an election issue.

Disingenuous Tweet of the Day:

The tweet links to an article titled Birth control as election issue? Why?

The issue of birth control has suddenly become an obsession of the 2012 presidential campaign. To...

Media Matters for America really is Media Matters for Obama, but you already knew that from the frequent posts here about it.

Among other things, MMFA employs the most expensive proofreader in America, and the most aggressive and unapologetic purveyor of the “Israel-Firster” smear.

It’s quite a group.

Now The Daily Caller has a...

As you know, I’m highly skeptical of polls showing Jews turning against Obama in substantial numbers.  So, in what may be a first, I’ll have to agree with the Plum Line guys, Greg Sargent and Adam Serwer, about Jews and Obama.

Jews are not going to vote against Obama, at least not on the...

Or maybe, The Definitive “They Didn’t See It Coming” Tweet; or The Definitive “They Don’t Get It” Tweet; or The Definitive “Not Seeing The Forest For The Trees” Tweet.  Any other suggestions?

You don’t need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows:

Greg Sargent who blogs at The Washington Post has been the single greatest blogospheric force in going after Sharron Angle and Christine O’Donnell, nitpicking their every word, and ascribing the worst motivations to ambiguous or out of context statements to portray them as dangerous extremists, liars, and worse.  Sargent almost single-handedly has pushed the nonsense...
