Don Lemon on CNN, this is the guy who asked a transportation expert if a black hole could have swallowed the missing Malaysian Airlines jet, a Boeing 777. He's back today, and he was discussing one of the women who was raped by Bill Cosby, allegedly assaulted by Bill Cosby. By the way, is anybody asking what is behind this? Why now, all of a sudden out of the...

I have lost track of the DOJ action on General Petraeus. Is he still under investigation or have they closed it out? If still open has anyone in congress or the media asked the simple question: why? I assume if he is still under investigation that it is to keep him quiet about the Obama administration policies a d to kill any political aspirations.

Fox Business’s Don Imus had a delicious trifecta Thursday trashing three perilously liberal journalists in less than 90 seconds. After telling Jonathan Alter to “shove” his request to come on the program and hawk his new book, Imus called Howard Fineman a “sniveling little weasel” and Jon Meacham a “phony b*st*rd” (video follows with transcript and commentary): DON IMUS: "I’m in a horrible mood because of a couple of reasons. And I don’t like it when people tell me what a great friend they are of mine, because I know it’s nonsense. And here’s, you don’t need to tell me...

"Recently, our good friend, Donald Gallerani, aka. Don in Lake Ronkonkoma, was showered with praise on talk radio by many hosts, including of course Mark Levin, for his book, Everything Worth Knowing I Heard On Talk Radio. As a result, Don updated the back cover of his book to display that. Those are some great endorsements, aren’t they?" For all you talk radio listeners, I know you've heard of Don in Lake Ronkonkoma. He has been an avid listener for quite some time (under exaggerated) and decided to write a book about it. The book also touches on so much...

Boycott Al Sharpton and His Mindless Minions!Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson are destroying race relations in America. It seems that Sharpton and Jackson believe the first amendment only applies to the black population. Sharpton is a bigot, Jackson has a love-child, and neither of them believes in what their so-called reverend titles would imply. Reverends? Of what? The church of bigotry, hypocrisy, and hatred, maybe? Jackson’s phrase was “himeytown”, Sharpton’s was “white interlopers” and “jewelry merchants”, and Chris Rock’s phrase is “crazyass crackers”. Everything is fine and should not be punished if said by a black person. I for one,...

How the media got Don Imus cannedAn advocacy group spun the shock jock's previously ignored comments into a media darling. By: Joshua Sharp If we've learned anything from the Don Imus affair, it's that the media can get anybody fired. The "shock jock" was chatting with his executive producer Bernard McGuirk on his radio show when they started to analyze the two teams in the NCAA women's basketball championship game. Most have heard what he said - so it's not worth repeating. Immediately following the show, there was no massive protest. Listeners didn't storm the studio, and most of America...

On the Oprah Winfrey Show that aired in Columbus, Ohio yesterday, members of the Rutgers' women's basketball team appeared. After much ballyhoo about Don Imus' recent mortal sin of calling the roundball squad "nappy-headed hos",and the permanent psychological injury that has befallen each team member as a direct result of the comment that none of them heard live, Oprah made her own equally offensive racist and sexist comment.Oprah essentially said that white men can't dance. As a white male, I can only say that I am cut to the quick. I may never be the same. I want my reparations...

A new poll shows Don Goldwater leading the list of Republican candidates for governor by a substantial margin, including conservative rival Len Munsil. Goldwater is the nephew of the late Barry Goldwater, a longtime U.S. Senator from Arizona and the 1964 Republican candidate for president. A poll of likely GOP voters by SurveyUSA shows Goldwater with 39 percent. That is well ahead of other gubernatorial candidates. Conservative advocate Len Munsil, viewed as a front-runner by many party leaders and business lobbyists, received just 10 percent. Scottsdale businessman Mike Harris received 9 percent and former Santa Cruz County attorney and state...

We couldn’t have made this up if we tried. Noted shock jock, quasi Liberal, and former Kerry supporter Don Imus is no friend of Hillary Clinton’s. At least he won’t be after she hears what he said about her on The Larry King show tonight. We don’t think Al Gore will keep him on the speed dial for much longer either. ....KING: And of course, Hillary. DON IMUS: Is Satan. KING: Satan? DEIRDRE IMUS: Stop it. Who’s making you say that? Bernard? DON IMUS: No. Nobody’s — she’s not as evil as Al Gore. That’s all I can — KING:...

Shocking photos are now available that link Texas State House District 48 Republican Candidate Don Zimmerman to Senators Hillary Clinton and Ted Kennedy.

Now the truth can be revealed. On December 5th, 2003, Hillary Clinton came to Austin, Texas to promote her Living History book. We have uncovered evidence that Don Zimmerman was there to greet her as she arrived at BookPeople in downtown Austin. Only a week later on December 12th,...

'Minutes' man gets Rather curt CBS legend Don Hewitt hasn't been shy about criticizing Dan Rather, but the grand old man of "60 Minutes" had stopped short of publicly recommending termination for the central figure in CBS News' painful 2004 Memogate flap. Until yesterday. "Should Dan Rather have been fired?" Time magazine managing editor Jim Kelly asked the 83-year-old Hewitt during a Court TV journalism panel at Michael's. "Yes," Hewitt answered. He suggested that the 74-year-old Rather - a "60 Minutes" correspondent since stepping down last March as "Evening News" anchor - was politically motivated in airing a controversial pre-election...
