  • Vanity: The New Self-Imposed "No Inflammatory Images" Liberal Rule (Yes To Abu Ghraib, No To Osama)

    Sorry for the vanity: This new rule of "No Inflammatory Images" applies now not just to the Democrats but to every media outlet that supports the decision. The big question is how after ten years and countless operations in search for Osama we somehow didn't have a contingency plan that took into account how the release of such death photos would be done to mollify the Muslim world. Obviously we must not have had one since Obama & Co stated not only would photos and a video of the burial be forthcoming but in fact just yesterday Leon Panetta stated...
  • Drudge: BBC World Service to sign funding deal with US state department

    Guardian ^ | March 20, 2011 | Ben Dwoell
    The BBC World Service is to receive a "significant" sum of money from the US government to help combat the blocking of TV and internet services in countries including Iran and China. In what the BBC said is the first deal of its kind, an agreement is expected to be signed later this month that will see US state department money – understood to be a low six-figure sum – given to the World Service to invest in developing anti-jamming technology and software.

  • Final Congressional Support For "Stimulus": D-303 R-3 (Democrats Own This Porkulus)

    The Dems proposed it, the Dems wrote it, the Dems pushed it and the Dems are responsible for 99% of the affirmative votes. 303 and 3 - if that is proof of bipartisan support in the affirmative then, by definition, the Nay vote of 221(R) and 7(D) is a stronger bipartisan coalition in opposition.
  • Ted Kennedy's Health Care To Be Rationed? (Vanity)

    As discussed by Rush and others, embedded in the "stimulus" bill is a creation of the "Federal Coordinating Council for Comparative Effectiveness Research" which would essentially be empowered to ration treatments based on factors such as life expectancy and cost effectiveness which would result in medical dollars for older patients being denied and transferred for the use of younger, "still productive" patients. It would seem that an appropriate question would be whether Ted Kennedy's incurable brain malady would have been determined "a waste of resources" and thus rationed/denied services?

    Feeling bummed, down, deflated etc? Feel that no matter whether the Republicans were to get their act together the Pro-Democrat Media (PDM) would never allow a cogent, honest assessment of anything from the Republicans? Angry that the PDM provides cover for all that Congressional (and soon executive) Dems do and all the Dem auxillaries from education to union to sciences etc. Tired of the emotionally-charged and intellectually-bankrupt PGM 24/7? Then dump 'em! That's right - stop feeding the beast. On Tuesday, January 20, cancel your cable or satellite subscription. In one fell swoop you will disempower CNN, CBS, NBC, ABC,...

    The South Carolina Democratic Chairwoman, Carol Fowler, offered the kind of shot at Sarah Palin that the Republicans have been complaining about, but which Democrats have largely avoided, in an interview with Politico today. Fowler said McCain had chosen a running mate " whose primary qualification seems to be that she hasn’t had an abortion.”

    On Wikipedia's site in regards to the Florida legislatures overwhelming decision to buck the DNC and go with their own front-loading primary date, I noticed an amazing coincidence:The Florida legislature voted via House Bill 537 to move forward the date of their state's primary to January 29th, causing a chain reaction which moved many other states’ primaries and caucuses to much earlier dates. The vote passed with bipartisan support 118 to 0 in the House, 37 to 2 in the Senate.Now many of you may recall that after the tussle between the Florida Supreme Court and the US Supreme Court...
  • State Democrats say Clinton camp may sue

    AUSTIN — The Texas Democratic Party warned Thursday that election night caucuses scheduled for Tuesday could be delayed or disrupted after aides to Hillary Rodham Clinton threatened to sue over the party's complicated delegate selection process. In a letter sent out late Thursday to both the Clinton and Barack Obama campaigns, Texas Democratic Party lawyer Chad Dunn warned a lawsuit could ruin the Democrats' effort to re-energize voters just as they are turning out in record numbers. Spokesmen for both campaigns said there were no plans to sue ahead of the March 4 election. "It has been brought to my...
