If you want to see the very definition of media bias, look no further than this post by Newsbuster’s Matthew Sheffield:

As if we political junkies are bouncing around like kindergartners with a case of Pixie Sticks enough as it is, John McCain has decided that he’s going to announce his VP pick tomorrow.
Or maybe tonight, if the rumors of a leak are true.
It almost goes without saying that conjecture abounds (if it went entirely [...]

It was said in the movie Patton that Caesar, in order to remember humility, had a man stand behind him to constantly whisper to him “Sic transit gloria mundi”, which was translated “All glory is fleeting”.

I actually stayed up last night and watched Hillary Clinton’s DNC speech. I didn’t blog it because I wanted to pay attention to what I was seeing as well as what I was hearing. There was a lot there to see, too.

About ten years ago, I saw a movie called The Immortals. Though the movie, packed to the gills with B-list talent, wasn’t very good, there was once scene that was brilliant. The movie follows a group of criminals who have been hired to rob a crime boss (played by Curtis). At one point, the five [...]
