Ya' Just Gotta Love It!

I have to admit that this really made my day! It's been a rough couple of days, on a personal level, so it's good to come up for air and see that the White House is trashing Glenn Beck!  That's right!

White House vs. Beck…

The Washington Examiner’s Liz Barrett notes that the White House blog tried to fact check Glenn Beck today… The official White House blog post for Wednesday said Fox News shows a blatant “disregard for the facts,” listing a litany of Glenn Beck rethoric that does not match up with reality. The post was written by staffer Jesse [...]

Was 9/11 An Inside Job?

Well, was it?

Why the 911 Truth Movement 'Cannot be Stopped'

There remains probable cause to indict and charge top officials, George W. Bush himself, for the crimes we call '911'. And, last time I checked, there was no 'statute of limitation' on mass murder, war crimes [see: US Codes, Title 18, Section 2441] or high treason! The evidence against Bush, Cheney and a gang of NEOCON crooks will prove in court that [...]

Pay Attention

Maybe it's time for all of us to pay more attention to stories like this one:

'Daily Kos' Finds On-Ramp to Recent Edmonds Disclosures; And Other Related Odds, Ends...

A few quick updates so far today... The #1 recommended story over at dKos at this moment: "FBI Whistleblower says Neocons Negotiated Iraq Invasion with Foreign Agents in Summer 2001". Good. We thank diarist "The Anomaly" for noticing. Hopefully many others will begin digging into Phil Giraldi's mind-blowing cover story interview [...]

Finally, Some Agressive Questioning

I didn't catch all of the Sunday talkers today (heck, it was all-Obama, All-the-time), but this makes it look like David Gregory did a pretty good job in dealing with another guest on another topic.

Backed Into A Corner, Boehner Admits That Obama Is Not A Socialist

RNC Chairman Michael Steele recently sent out a fundraising letter saying that President Obama and Democratic leaders in Congress are attempting a “socialist power grab.” Today on NBC’s Meet the Press, host David Gregory pressed House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-OH) on whether such language was appropriate. Boehner tried to dodge the question, insisting that [...]

Fox News vs The World

Let's just make it really simple. Lying isn't good. My momma taught me that years ago.  Fox News must not have listened.

CNN Ad Hits Back At Fox News: "Fox News: Distorting, Not Reporting" (VIDEO)

As HuffPost's Jason Linkins reported earlier today, Fox News took out a full-page ad in the Friday addition of the Washington Post to boast about its coverage of the Tea Party protests last weekend in D.C. and also to goad its rivals by asking "How Did ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, and CNN Miss This Story?" A number of these networks didn't take the Fox News ad lying down, and fired back, saying the ad was "just false." CNN's Rick Sanchez gave [...]

Good Work

My goodness, but we certainly took care of folks in New Orleans, didn't we?

Lifespan Of African-Americans In New Orleans Rivals North Koreans

The American Human Development Project released a new report today called A Portrait Of LOUISIANA. The project paints a landscape of Louisiana four years after Katrina, and includes some troubling statistics showing that the average life span for African-Americans living in New Orleans is nearly as low as life expectancy in [...]

The ACORN Debate

ACORN has drawn fire from critics almost since day-one, but the allegations have gotten stronger and the organization finds itself defending the operation more and more frequently. Kudos to MSNBC's Dylan Ratigan for trying to some extremely combative guests in check this morning:

What Health Care Proposal?

To the best of my ability to dig through it, I just can't throw my mind or heart behind the health care reform bill proposed yesterday. There appear to be so doggone many holes in it, compared to the promises that won the election for democrats. Great discussion, focused around an op-ed piece in today's New York Times:

The Glenn Beck Saga Continues

Fact-checking, my friend, is the rule, not just a suggestion. Someday, somebody, will get back to the basics. Or not.

Weak…

TVNewser has FNC’s Senior Vice President of Development Joel Cheatwood offering an utterly unconvincing defense for Glenn Beck getting caught up in a hoax concerning ACORN… Joel Cheatwood, FNC’s SVP of Development tells TVNewser, “As Glenn has steadfastly maintained throughout the show’s coverage of this latest ACORN scandal, the individuals on the tapes are not the [...]
