Press secretary Sean Spicer publicly apologized several times for this comment about Bashar Assad, the murderous dictator of Syria: "You had someone as despicable as Hitler who didn't even sink to using chemical weapons." Spicer got hammered for supposedly minimizing the horror of the Holocaust. MSNBC's Chris Matthews, in 2013, made the exact same comment about Syria's Assad: "It's been enforced in the Western community, around the world -- international community for decades -- don't use chemical weapons. We didn't use them in World War II. Hitler didn't use them. We don't use chemical weapons. That's no deal." What, no...

In yet another example of revisionist history, MSNBC.com’s Suzy Khimm conveniently blamed the GOP for Congress’s failure to extend unemployment benefits, leaving out how Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) has repeatedly prevented votes on GOP amendments to offset unemployment benefit spending with cuts elsewhere. Khimm lamented how "With a major snowstorm approaching the East Coast, Congress decided on Wednesday it had some urgent business to take care of before going home for recess…extending federal unemployment benefits for the long-term jobless didn’t make the list." Khimm continued her piece by pulling at the heartstrings of her readers before taking aim...

During the 2012 presidential campaign, somehow each and every Republican presidential contender had a sink thrown at him (or her) via what reporters call "investigative journalism." Every time a Republican rose in the polls, the media tried to knock him or her down, like a game of Whac-A-Mole. The very last man standing was Mitt Romney, who didn't receive the official "Gotcha!" from The Washington Post until May, with a 5,000-word opus on "Teenage Haircutgate." That's why it's so strange the national media would decide so early it was time for journalistic carpet bombing of the Great Squishy Northeastern Hope...

Bill O’Reilly Defends Himself Against The View Walkout On The Factor Video:Fox News:Bill O'Reilly Talks About the Whoopi, Joy Behar Walk-Out On "the View" Joy Behar gave her side of the story re: walking out while debating Bill O’Reilly on The View today, and of course O’Reilly was going to use his own show to examine the incident. He did so, and right away, looking back on what happened during his show’s opening segment. O’Reilly, of course, still doesn’t think he was in the wrong for saying “Muslims killed us on 9/11,” saying that after all these years, we can...

Randi Rhodes, the leftist talk-radio host who found herself in hot water yesterday for airing a skit that warned President Bush with gunfire, has joked about assassinating the commander in chief before. Last May, Rhodes, who hosts a show on the struggling Air America network, imitated the sound of gunfire while saying somebody ought to take the president fishing and then shoot him. On May 12, New York Daily News columnist Michael Goodwin wrote a piece criticizing Air America, saying he had listened to the liberal radio network one day for 10 hours. "The queen of venom, Randi Rhodes, followed...

Listening (by accident) to a radio show called Jimbo something. Jimbo has Art Buchwald on hawking some book of his. He starts out saying that after 911, word came down that the president was now fair after having been given the word that the president was off limits for Buchwald's columns. Interesting that a Republican president would be fair game and especially after 911? Wouldn't we want to support our president during this time of the aftermath of an attack by leftwing whackos from the middle east? Anyone know who Buchwald writes for? If so, please post so we know...
