Why the Left fears the Tea Party

Many have looked at the Left’s reaction to the Tea Party movement and question this visceral reaction.   The Left labels the movement as astro-turf, fringe and most recently racist.   It is obvious that the movement bothers the left in this country, but why?   The left (including Hillary Clinton) oft state that decent is our [...]

Haiti and Scott Brown

An odd combination but they have something remarkable in common… The American People.
Both have served to show, that when it comes down to it;  Democrats, Republicans and Independents, there is a lot we share as Americans.   The media, in pursuit of the every important rating point (dollars but the Liberals don’t like to admit it), [...]

Fox News is not a legitmate news agency…Let’s compare

The Obama administration, including the president himself, have come out swinging a Fox News.   They accuse Fox of pushing the Republican agenda and not being a legitimate news network.
Let’s be honest, they point to Beck and Hannity.  You will hear them mention “Let’s watch together and 5:00 and 9:00 and see what we mean.”  That [...]

Dateline DC: Somewhere between 70,000 and 2 Million

Sounds like the accuracy of a government program?  But no, it is the estimates for the crowd that gathered in DC this week 9/12 in protest to expanding Federal government and an unsustainable slope curve on deficit spending.
I do not pretend to be an expert on counting crowds.  But I think a little common sense [...]

Proof of Media Bias on display for CA Vote?

The CA voters (those same voters that voted for Obama 61%/37%) have voted down tax increases by about the same margin. Good news (sorry Mr. Powell, Americans do not want more taxes).
So with such a resounding defeat where did the voters get that opinion? Unlikley from their local newpapers.

Huffington Post reused edited image as a different city to dig Tea-Parties

As you would expect the Huffington Post has a bit of an issue covering these tea-parties but this was priceless coverage.

I found this picture with the heading “Barack Hussein Obama The New face Of Hitler”– T. Romao, Chicago.”
And then further down the page in another section I found this with the heading “Obama pictured as [...]

The sublety of bias… Senator Gregg edition

It is sometimes tough to recognize bias. Especially, when it is the terms of “exclusion”. Simply, leaving out information that might change your view on the situation. The recent situation of Senator Gregg’s removing himself from cabinet consideration is a key example.
The media is trying to spin the message as a “partisan Republican, unwilling to [...]

The subtleties of media bias AP style

In a “news” story the AP shows the subtleties of bias.
So let me highlight for the purposes of education.The first line begins the trail… “In a bold move brimming with confidence, Democrat Barack Obama broadened his advertising campaign … by placing a commercial in the Republican presidential nominee’s home state of Arizona.” First the article [...]

I am sure you have all heard Republications are violent racists at rallies.

Have any of you heard the Secret service has interviewed their own agents, police and attendees and noone actually heard what Singleton claims he heard. But you see it must be true because the media is always truthful and there is no way he misheard it or had any bias. I am sure all of [...]
