The NY Times is naming names of House Democrats Who Voted Against the Health Care Bill.It's all public record, so it's not "outing." But it is interesting that The Times feels the need to go into such detail to highlight the Democratic heretics. The Times...
Paul Krugman has been a leader in the movement among NY Times columnists and left-wing bloggers to demean and isolate the conservative movement by claiming that harsh criticisms of Barack Obama's policies not only are racist, but also incite right-wing violence.In the aftermath of the...
No, not really. But neither did the Democrats on Tuesday, notwithstanding Nancy Pelosi's proclamation on Wednesday that "We won": "From my perspective, we won last night. We had one race that we were engaged in -- it was in northern New York. It was a...
I've been waiting patiently, armed with foresight that one of these days Bush Derangement Syndrome would work its way into the Balloon Boy hoax story (no links on the story, if you don't know about it, go back to your cave).And I've waited. And waited....
I'm late to this story, so I'll mostly link to others. Barack Obama tried to bar Fox News from the White House news pool, a move that is unprecedented.I have been sounding the alarm about Obama's intolerant tendencies for a year. I was right.Fortunately, the...
The NY Times wants John Corzine, who never met an election he couldn't buy, to defeat Chris Christie in the NJ Governor's race. So the Times is back to its old (never really changed) self, engaging in a hatchet job masquerading as news close to...
Driving political rivals from office or appointed positions has a long tradition.

Every once in a long while, the NY Times does something worthwhile, like re-printing one of the paintings selected by the Obamas, with the help of their decorator, to hang in the White House. (h/t National Review via HotAir)The decorator certainly knew his client....
Every now and then, like the proverbial broken clock, Frank Rich at the NY Times gets something mostly right. His column, The Rabbit Ragu Democrats, gets it mostly right and does a good job exposing the reality that lobbyists for corporate interests are running just...
I wish this headline in the NY Times was a joke, but it is not: U.S. Wonders if Iran Is Playing for Time or Is Serious on Deal This is a "news analysis" piece, so the Times will be all over the nuance angle: But...
The supporters of a government-run "public option" are touting a CBS/NY Times poll which purportedly shows that 65% of people support a public option. But examine how the question is framed, and it is clear that the question is intended to elicit a favorable response:"Would...
The NY Times has been largely silent on the ACORN fiasco until today, with an article titled Conservatives Draw Blood From Acorn, Favored Foe. The Times befools itself with the following analysis of why no one previously was able to convince the Obama administration to...
I made the classic blogger's mistake of getting a full night's sleep last night, rather than checking the internet every hour.When I awoke, every single blog I know had a post about how Van Jones had resigned sometime just before or after the stroke of...
NY Times columnist Maureen Dowd criticized Sarah Palin for using Facebook to write about Obama's health care plans:She took a forum, Facebook, more commonly used by kids hooking up and cyberstalking, and with one catchy phrase, several footnotes and a zesty disregard for facts, managed...
The NY Times has discovered that the Health Debate Fails to Ignite Obama’s Grass Roots:But even among those who turned out for the meetings, many of whom had Obama buttons affixed to their shirts and spoke glowingly of the president, there was a sense of...
An article in the NY Times, Climate Change Seen as Threat to U.S. Security, deserves a special place in the annals of journalism in the service of liberal politics. The thrust of the article is that global climate change "could" cause massive geopolitical disruption in...
Tiny Honduras is holding out against Manuel Zelaya, Hugo Chavez, Daniel Ortega, Barack Obama, the Organization of American States, and the United Nations.The economic and military sanctions imposed by the U.S. and international organizations with U.S. support are taking a toll on the Honduran economy....
