You have to understand, they are not his enemies

Posted by William A. Jacobson on October 05, 2013 15 Comments

I'm not overly enamored of the complaint that Obama will negotiate with the Iranians, Syrians and Russians, but not with Republicans. The complaint sounds a little whiny. But it does prove a point. A point that I made long ago about how Obama treats the Israelis and...

Dear House Republicans: Stay the course

Posted by William A. Jacobson on October 04, 2013 30 Comments

Obama's trek for a lunchtime photo op struck me as trying too hard. Contriving to make like he doesn't have a worry in the world and is in the catbird's seat tells me he knows his position is just the opposite. So does the cancellation of his...

A blog post yesterday at Media Matters pretty much sums up what is wrong with the organization. The Boston Globe is about as liberal a newspaper as they come. As we demonstrated during the 2012 Massachusetts Senate campaign, The Globe ran cover for Elizabeth Warren, touting her...

Harry Reid blocks NIH child cancer funding even though individual funding used to be the norm
