CBS News Reporter has major Meltdown on Live TV

This was the winning photo of the year in Turkey in 2010 – a battered and bloody Israeli soldier aboard the Mavi Marmara. Nine people were killed onboard the Gaza-bound Turkish ship after IDF troops who raided it encountered violent resistance by “peace activists” armed with an assortment of weapons. The “peace activists” threw stun grenades and beat the Israeli soldiers with pipes and chains. In August 2011 the Obama Administration warned Israel to apologize to Turkey over its bloody interception of a Gaza aid flotilla in 2010, or risk strained ties with Washington. There were also reports that Barack...

It is true that the management of the auto industry has made many mistakes but it sickens me to see them groveling before Congress, perhaps the only other people on the planet that squander more money than the auto industry

"Palestinians never used to do these things to one another." That was the first sentence of a New York Times Magazine story by the newspaper's Jerusalem Bureau Chief, Steven Erlanger. What are the things Palestinians are doing to one another today that they didn't do before? * putting bullets in the back of the heads of men on their knees; * shooting up hospitals; * killing patients; * knee-capping doctors; * executing clerics; * throwing handcuffed prisoners to their deaths from Gaza's highest apartment buildings; Is it naivete? Plain ignorance and incompetence? Deliberate disinformation? Partisanship with radical Islamists? Anti-Israeli zealotry?...

FP: Angela McGlowan, welcome to Frontpage Interview. McGlowan: It’s great to be with you. Frontpage does important work. The pleasure is all mine. FP: What inspired you to write this book? McGlowan: Well, like most black Americans, I grew up thinking I was supposed to be a Democrat. It wasn’t even something you questioned or thought twice about. Black equaled Democrat. Then after graduating from college I moved to Washington, DC, and began meeting prominent liberals and Democrats up close and personal. And that’s when I had an epiphany of sorts; I realized that the values my mother and father...

The cold, hard truth is Democrats depend on American blacks being both segregated and radicalized in order to have any chance at national power. That requires constant and cynical racially divisive tactics that the rest of America is only vaguely aware of...

Lopez: George Bush doesn’t hate black people? McGlowan: Bill Clinton had a black secretary. George W. Bush has a black Secretary of State. I rest my case!

Liberals' dirty secret is that they can't allow the hoodwinking of blacks, Latinos, and women to end. The electoral consequences would be devastating. For liberals to win elections, they must continue to ride the backs of blacks, Latinos, and women. Hence the rise of victimhood venders like Sharpton, Jackson, Sen. Ted Kennedy, Sen. Hillary Clinton, who preach a gospel of victimhood, even as they gloss past the Democrat Party's racist past...

One of the book's many bombshells comes from an interview McGlowan conducted with Rep. Jesse Jackson, Jr., about the origins of the Confederate flag. On page 134 of Bamboozled, the son of Reverend Jesse Jackson confesses that the Confederate flag, long used as an electoral bludgeon against conservatives and Republicans, is actually a symbol of the Democratic Party:

Republican political consultant Angela McGlowan, author of "Bamboozled," is...

Why is it today that seven out of 10 babies [born to black women] are born out of wedlock?" she says, attributing the trend to government welfare programs. "Seventy-five percent of all children born out of wedlock will grow up under the poverty line. ... Liberal politicians tell us we are second-class citizens, we can't do it on our own: 'You stay on the plantation and we'll dole out the cheese and come see you for the vote.' "Liberals always say that they are representing the little guy, but if the little guy makes it, then who will the liberals...

I predicted it. I told you those expected to oppose the nomination of John Roberts to the U.S. Supreme Court would come around after realizing they got their wish – another Anthony Kennedy or David Souter. It's happening. Just check out the column earlier this week by the Washington Post's Richard Cohen. This is the beginning. Soon you will see some of the most partisan Democrats in the U.S. Senate coming around. Mark my words. Cohen's commentary is not directed to Republicans in the Senate, who will support the nomination by President Bush unanimously. It is directed to those who...

I don't know who makes me sicker – President Bush or the "conservatives" who continue to back him and his sell-out choice for the U.S. Supreme Court. The conservatives eagerly jumped in to throw their support to the unknown John Roberts as soon as the choice to replace Sandra Day O'Connor was announced. On what basis? The guy was a blank slate – like David Souter and Anthony Kennedy before him. Then, last week, the Los Angeles Times broke the story that Roberts had volunteered his services – pro bono – to help prepare a landmark homosexual activist case to...

Black Democrats complained today that their party demands loyalty from them without giving any back when it counts. It was the second spat this week underscoring the frayed nerves, weariness and pent-up resentments that often beset lawmakers in the final week of a 60-day legislative session. This time, the spark was a floor vote - which broke down on racial lines - confirming the ouster of former Broward County Supervisor of Elections Miriam Oliphant. On Monday, it was women objecting to abortion legislation. Both times, a proposal to take a "caucus position" on pending issues caused the rift. "I find...

New theory for Iraq's missing WMD: Saddam was fooled into thinking he had them Richard Norton-Taylor and Julian Borger in Washington Wednesday December 24, 2003 The Guardian British officials are circulating a story that Saddam Hussein may have been hoodwinked into believing that Iraq really did possess weapons of mass destruction. The theory, which is doing the rounds in the upper reaches of Whitehall, is the result of an attempt to find what one official source called a "logical reason" why no chemical and biological weapons had been found in Iraq.
