Kipling once wrote “Heaven grant us patience with a man in love” and it seems we’re going to need a lot of patience with the MSM for the next four years. The sight of Obama, posing shirtless before the panting brigades of reporters, has given them yet another reason to write yet more embarrassing mash [...]

You would think, after months of running around and screaming about how our economy is crashing worse than Buster during an episode of Mythbusters, that the MSM would get tired. I know that I am. Yet even on Christmas Day, a day of hope and joy, the MSM is doing its best to club our [...]

Front page of the Washington Post today. Page A01.
Being elected president forces a man to take inventory of his life, so Barack Obama has trimmed his schedule to the bare essentials. He’s not in the White House yet, but gone are the hours he once spent reading novels, watching television and obsessing over the [...]

So here I am, listening to Ella Fitzgerald’s Christmas Album
and browsing memeorandum when I come across this giant chunk of silliness from Thomas Friedman. Read the whole thing if you like, but I just want to swoop in and knock down a few low-hanging fruit.
First, it’s patently ridiculous to say that Chinese people are [...]

So, the internet-reading public (and the MSM, which is starting to resemble the audience of a Beatles concert) wants to see Barack Obama topless, huh? Well, far be it from me to deprive you of what you want.
Here you go, folks. Barack Obama shirtless, in all his spindly glory. He does have quite the Obama [...]

Oh, yeah. That’s right. Never.
The MSM reporting, especially television reporting, of gas prices was horrid this year? According to the Business & Media Institute’s Dan Gainor, stories about the energy crisis were inaccurate, predictions were wildly wrong, and good news was rarely reported. Not only did all of the television networks predicted long-term wrack and [...]

Michelle Malkin is very quotable today.
If you’re a conservative writer who dares to point out the downside of government policies that loosened lending standards for first-time minority homebuyers, you’re a RAAAACIST…
But if you’re the New York Times wanting to point out how George W. Bush’s minority home ownership pandering is responsible for the subprime crisis, [...]

But of course he is.
The quote seen in the Politico is priceless.
President-elect Barack Obama has been named Time Magazine’s person of the year, “for having the confidence to sketch an ambitious future in a gloomy hour, and for showing the competence that makes Americans hopeful he might pull it off,”
You know, snake oil made lots [...]
