Weeks after the fiery death of investigative journalist Michael Hastings , who was probing abuses by the CIA and NSA and had recently informed others that he was being investigated by federal authorities, suspicions about his mysterious car crash are still swirling around the Internet. While police officially ruled the death an “accident,” serious questions are still surfacing — even in the establishment media and among prominent officials. Based on e-mails Hastings sent out shortly before he died about working on a “big story” and needing to go “off the radar,” it has become clear that he was worried, too....

I apologize for forgetting the FReeper who did yeoman's work compiling the list of suspicious deaths surrounding Clinton and his various scandals. I was always impressed by its length and chilling implications. Since we are now under the rule of the "Chicago Way," I'm wondering if folks out there know of similar deaths we can connect to Obama's henchmen? Brian A. Terry sort of fits the bill, though the death was not an attempt to quiet anyone. The Navy SEALs who died in the chopper crash after OBL's assassination fit the bill better. And perhaps that gay guy that Sinclaire...

The MSNBC "Hardball" host had more explaining to do after Clinton's victory when he said that the reason Clinton is a candidate for president "is that her husband messed around." Matthews was the focal point for the anger many women felt at how Clinton's candidacy seemed to be written off with lightning speed following a loss in Iowa and foreboding poll numbers in New Hampshire. He is a man and he is ever sure of himself. He also had a history: The liberal watchdog Media Matters for America counted more than eight negative remarks Matthews made about Clinton for every...

Chris Matthews Calls Hillary Clinton ‘Dukakis in a Dress’ Posted by Noel Sheppard on January 21, 2007 - 21:53. With the love-fest that is currently going on over Sen. Barack Obama (D-Illinois), it is certainly no surprise when a group of mainstream media members gets together to discuss Hillary Clinton’s shortcomings. Yet, it is quite odd to hear someone like Chris Matthews state that the current frontrunner for the 2008 Democrat presidential nomination – and a former first lady – is a female incarnation of one of the biggest left-wing failures in decades (video available here courtesy of our friend...

Chicago Sun-Times political columnist Robert Novak has some bad news for Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton: You've lost momentum. According to Novak, a national poll of Democratic voters shows that support for a presidential candidacy for Sen. Barack Obama has surged while Clinton is treading water. Republican pollster John McLaughlin questioned voters on Election Day in both 2004 and 2006 and discovered support for Clinton, D-N.Y., unchanged at 27 percent. Sen. John Kerry, who was second in 2004 at 16 percent, got only 8 percent this year. Meanwhile, Obama attracted 21 percent, up from 2 percent in 2004. In the GOP...

(NOTE: reporters are wetting their collective pants over an accident while hunting. I suspect that not many of them had much interest in finding the truth about the death of Vince Foster. I've seen the affidavits from troopers Perry and Patterson. Helen Dickey (Chelsea's nanny) phone the Arkansas governor's mansion to tell them of their friend's death. Perry took the call. The call was likely before 6:30 pm (that would have been Arkansas time, so it was before 7:30pm in D.C. Clinton claims he found out at 10pm when he finished the Larry King show. Dickey claimed she found out...
