  • Liz Cheney launches blistering attack on Kevin McCarthy for 'elevating white supremacists and anti-Semites' as she torches the GOP over House Speaker chaos

    Liz Cheney has slammed ousted House Speaker Kevin McCarthy for 'elevating white supremacists and anti-Semites' as part of his leadership. Cheney was defeated in a primary in 2022 by Harriet Hageman in a race that was heavily influenced by her criticism of Donald Trump. The daughter of ex-Vice President Dick Cheney said McCarthy has muddled the party by following Trump's lead. 'I wish that it were surprising,' she told CNN. 'You know, what we've seen is a result of really the leadership decisions that Kevin McCarthy made back after the 2020 election and certainly after January 6.' 'And, you know,...

    Modern women follow a set of rules that are supposed to make them happy when followed. But the rules aren't based on anything other than an entitled, self-obsessed, victimization complex.>Aidy Bryant’s testament to the independent modern woman, “Shrill,” comes to a close with the third and final season now airing on Hulu. Bryant’s Annie Easton is Mary Tyler Moore in a plus-sized mini dress, taking on the world with a smile and a can-do attitude, balanced by a perpetual feeling that she’s being judged for being overweight. Like Mary, Annie is trying to figure it all out as she goes...

    “Saturday Night Live” cast members won’t be forced to appear alongside controversial billionaire Elon Musk when he hosts the show, Page Six is told. “Speaking historically, if a cast member has been that unhappy, they don’t have to do it,” a source told us. “[‘SNL’ boss Lorne Michaels] won’t ever make them do anything they don’t want to do.” The Tesla founder, 49, is set to helm the NBC institution on May 8 — but some cast members have made it clear that they’re less than enthused by the prospect of having him on stage at Studio 8H. After Musk...

    SEE IT: Hillary Clinton calls Trump supporters 'dangerous' in angry retort to heckler who shouted 'Bill Clinton is a rapist!' Hillary unleashed a fiery comeback to a heckler who accused Bill Clinton of being a rapist by criticizing the "dark, divisive" vision of Trump supporters. The protester interrupted Clinton’s speech at the rally in Florida when he shouted “Bill Clinton is a rapist!” Clinton stopped to address the heckler, whose words could be heard over the roaring crowd...[snip] -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hilarious photo of angry shrew Hillary baited into a tirade.

  • AP-GfK Poll: Clinton's standing falls among Democrats

    My Way (AP) ^ | 7/16/2015 | LISA LERER and EMILY SWANSON
    WASHINGTON (AP) — Hillary Rodham Clinton's standing is falling among Democrats, and voters view her as less decisive and inspiring than when she launched her presidential campaign just three months ago, according to a new Associated Press-GfK poll. The survey offers a series of warning signs for the leading Democratic candidate. Most troubling, perhaps, for her prospects are questions about her compassion for average Americans, a quality that fueled President Barack Obama's two White House victories. Just 39 percent of all Americans have a favorable view of Clinton, compared to nearly half who say they have a negative opinion of...

    The Trouble With Romney I read the New York Post this morning and, reluctantly, the weekly Peggy Noonan column. Noonan is a centrist RINO who thinks she represents mainstream American conservative thinking because she wrote speeches for Ronald Reagan over thirty years ago. You can read her article titled “Obama Can Lose” here: http://www.nypost.com/p/news/opinion/opedcolumnists/obama_can_lose_XyLH4VsgHAHvWQlmzrdGRJ?CMP=OTC-rss&FEEDNAME The traitorous Noonan—who supported, shrilled and voted for Obama in 2008—writes that even if the economy turns around, inflation calms and mid east unrest subsides, Obama will lose in 2012. According this shrill, the only way Obama will win is if the GOP fails to “nominate,...

    "Sometimes the leak is so bad that even a plumber can't fix it." This was the concise summation of a cable political strategist the other day, after the third and final presidential debate. That sounds about right, and yet the race in its final days retains a feeling of dynamism. I think it is going to burst open or tighten, not just mosey along. (snip) But we have seen Mrs. Palin on the national stage for seven weeks now, and there is little sign that she has the tools, the equipment, the knowledge or the philosophical grounding one hopes for,...

    CNN double checked with its reporter and confirmed that Reid meant Palin personally, everyone on the CNN panel had to admit this term is never used against men and that Reid's remark is a mistake that can help validate Palin's attacks on the democrats. Priceless, they also said Reid hates McCain and Reid played right into the republicans' hands. They said Reid was upset last night too. Guess he thinks only the left should have a political convention. CNN just came back from the break and is still covering this story. Lol now Paul Begala is saying only calling Sarah...

    Even though public opinion is inexorably shifting toward concern about man-made climate change, we are still treated to the rants of warming skeptics who trot out the same old arguments. The interesting thing is how these objections have changed over time, moving the goal posts if you will. It's late in the fourth quarter, though, and the deniers are backed up almost to their own end zone as the melting glaciers of evidence creep slowly forward. Warming deniers have used two types of counter arguments: ones that attack the messenger or message, and others that try attacking the science. The...

    NEW YORK -- Ticket sales for a major gay and lesbian fundraiser for Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton remained brisk Friday, organizers said, even after the leader of the state's largest gay rights group urged activists to boycott the event over Clinton's opposition to gay marriage. Some of Clinton's most dedicated gay supporters acknowledge they are disappointed with her position, saying there is little evidence that supporting gay marriage bears huge risks for any politician. The fundraiser for Clinton's re-election campaign on Friday night was the focus of a controversial memo written last month by Alan Van Capelle, head of Empire...

    His State of the Union speech was yet another indication that our president, George W. Bush, lives in an alternative universe.After hearing what the president had to say last week, one might think that he was unaware of the actions of his own administration, as well as those of his Republican Party, for the past five years. Are we supposed to be impressed that Bush just realized that Americans are addicted to oil? Where has he been? And doesn't he know that his polices and those of the Republican majority in Congress continue to reinforce America's addiction to oil? Doesn't...

    Hillary Clinton is most certainly not the scheming, bitter, partisan portrayed in Dick Morris and Eileen McGann's bestselling book "Condi vs Hillary," which the New York Times derides in a Sunday book review as "a Fox News fairy tale." Times Washington correspondent Robin Toner insists that the Morris-McGann tome is more parody than reality, dismissing their claims that Hillary is filled with "rage" at Republicans; along with the assertion that Clinton, "at her core . . . believes in income redistribution." So when Mrs. Clinton bellows - as she did at a Democratic fundraiser in 2003 - that she's "sick...

    While some ends may justify some means, in very extreme circumstances, it is still unavoidable that the means we choose will inevitably also transform, to some extent, the ends we achieve. So, personally, I normally overwhelmingly prefer civil means and civil discourse to their uncivil twins. For the United States, similarly, I believe civil means and civil discourse has served us most well in building a peaceful, prosperous union. I have faith that most of the American people feel likewise. A recent poll, from Democrat electoral consultants Democracy Corps, shows a stable attachment to Republicans since 2004 (43 percent), but...

    Senator Clinton, dropping her recent attempts at moderation, launched a scathing attack on Washington Republicans yesterday, lambasting President Bush as someone who sold out America's economic viability to the government of China and accusing congressional Republicans of making the House of Representatives a GOP dictatorship. Mrs. Clinton delivered those and other broadsides at a breakfast held at the New York Hilton hotel by the New York Women for Hillary, a $210-a-seat fund-raising event that organizers said attracted more than 1,000 people and generated about $250,000 for Mrs. Clinton's campaign for re-election in 2006. New York's junior senator is also considered...

    Sen. Joseph R. Biden Jr. (D-Del.) and former senator John Edwards (D-N.C.) distanced themselves over the weekend from remarks by Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean, who is facing criticism for the pace of the party's fundraising. Dean, who inspired a passionate following when he ran for president in 2003-04 and showed the potential of Internet fundraising, has been as unpredictable with his public remarks since becoming party chairman in mid-February as his Republican counterpart, Ken Mehlman, has been on message.

    NEW YORK (Reuters) - The general responsible for the U.S. naval base at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, said on Friday Amnesty International's "shrill" criticism of the detention of foreign terrorism suspects was uninformed. U.S. Army Gen. John Craddock, head of Miami-based Southern Command, added that he did not expect a military inquiry into whether U.S. personnel at the jail had mishandled the Koran would show more than the five cases acknowledged on Thursday. In its annual report on human rights worldwide, Amnesty International said the detention facility had become "the gulag of our times," equating it to the vast, brutal Soviet...
