Rush Plays the Race Card Against Sotomayor

–updated– Sotomayor as a child. Rush Limbaugh went on quite a tirade today. I heard it. Here’s part of it: So, here you have a racist. You might want to soften that and you might wanna say a reverse racist. And the libs, of course, say that minorities cannot be racists because they don’t have [...]

Radio Host on Waterboarding: ‘Way worse than I thought it would be’

“Justlen” already put this “In the News.” Don’t try this at home, folks. Mancow wanted to find out if waterboarding is torture. He learned the hard way. “It is way worse than I thought it would be, and that’s no joke,” Mancow said, likening it to a time when he nearly drowned as a child. [...]

Wanda Too Mean To Rush

When you clip and truncate quotes, or in this case, a comedienne’s routine, you’re actually guiltier than the person you’re attempting to smear, due to the dishonesty of your actions. You also don’t have to like the comic’s routine, but when you book her you at least know what you’re getting. The final evidence is [...]

Dick Cheney’s Bet

What motivates Dick Cheney? It’s not what people think, though Mr. Cheney should be worried about his role in U.S. torture policy, though he’ll likely never be held to account. So, it’s not that.

The Beast that Reagan Built

Hannity isn’t going to like this one. He’s been running back to daddy, aka Ronald Reagan, ever since the Republican collapse became evident. That the message is being sent by Jeb Bush, someone conservatives love, will make it even more difficult to take. Shorter Jeb: Time to leave Reagan behind. “So our ideas need to [...]

Special Forces Rock

The rescue of Capt. Phillips is exhibit A for why Special Forces, Army Rangers, and Navy Seals are critically important to any national security strategy going forward.

Hu-Rah

A computerized medical system the streamlines veteran medical records, which will aid vets in getting treated more quickly and efficiently.

Hannity Hate Speech Sure to Grow as Obama Reaches Out to Muslims

Barack Hussein Obama in Turkey today does what no other American president could do by virtue of his background and who he is.

Hail To The Chief

In one visit, President Obama turned the page from the Bush-Cheney era of cowboy leadership to one that acknowledges that in the 21st century we cannot go it alone. Merkel of Germany and Sarcozy of France went from promising disgruntlement to giving credit where it’s earned: Both credited the new U.S. president with helping to [...]

Trucker TV

…and I mean that in a positive sense. If you saw my husband’s truck you’d get it (most of you have heard me talk about it). After Phil Griffin did his best to throw a curve ball, stating MSNBC might do reruns, “The Ed Show” is in. This is the gig Schultz has wanted for [...]

Congressional Looney Tune Time

You know what’s really amazing about this video? It’s featured on Rep. Bachman’s YouTube page. Evidently, she didn’t quite get how ridiculous she sounded, though if she’d just taken in the incredulous looks of both Geithner and Bernanke she would have gotten the message. However, Sean Hannity had her up front and center on his [...]
