CNN Airs Pallywood Production as Authentic?
Did CNN air a Pallywood production — a faked scene by Hamas used as propaganda — as if it were an authentic situation? Here’s the video: The video is supposedly shot by the freelance journalist brother of the young boy that the “doctors” are trying to revive. But are they really doing CPR? A doctor [...]
Good News: Obama To Hold Talks With Terrorist Group, Paper Says
8. January 2009
It’s not some unreliable rag, either. The Guardian quotes sources within the Obama transition team saying that the incoming administration will hold discussions with Hamas, an organization classified as terroristic by the United States, European Union, Canada, Japan, and others. The incoming Obama administration is prepared to abandon President Bush’s doctrine of isolating Hamas by [...]
Report: Voinovich to Retire in 2010, Too
8. January 2009
I’m not as pessimistic as the perpetually-pessimistic Allahpundit, but I’m not exactly skipping around my house, either. With Jeb refusing to run, Kit Bond retiring, and now Voinovich possibly joining Bond…we really don’t need to defend yet another seat. In other news, I am hearing rumors coming out of Ohio that Senator Voinovich is seriously [...]

7. January 2009
You’ll recall the thugs from the New Black Panther Party engaged in intimidation tactics in Philadelphia on election day, standing outside a voting precinct in black uniforms and bearing billy clubs. Well, the Justice Department evidently hasn’t forgotten about them, either. It’s filed an injunction against said thugs. Justice Department Seeks Injunction Against New Black [...]
ABC News Portrays “Ugly Americans” As Bush Supporters
7. January 2009
Stay to the end for the irony. ABC News, for its What Would You Do? segment, had actors portray Bush-supporting imbeciles in Paris: “Howdy!” shouted Bob to the porter, in a Texas drawl. “Je m’appelle, Bob!” They were dressed in shorts and matching shirts marked: “Paris, Texas” and “Bush ’08.” Instead of Manolo Blahniks, they [...]
CPSIA: A Threat To Charities and Thrift Stores
7. January 2009
One location my family likes to patronize is a charity shop for the local animal shelter. There, like so many other charity stores, people can donate items to be sold in order to benefit the charity that’s selling the product. But the Consumer Protection Safety Improvement Act threatens such stores. The CPSIA, seeking to increase [...]
Two Vice Presidents At A Time?
7. January 2009
In refusing to take a stance on the Israeli-Hamas conflict this past week, President-elect Barack Obama has used the excuse that there’s only one President at a time. Engaging in something involving foreign policy would send mixed signals, Obama says. But then why is Vice President-elect Joe Biden traveling to the hotspots of the world [...]

7. January 2009
Hugo Chavez can’t even keep power on 24 hours a day in Venezuela, but he’ll continue his propaganda operation by continuing shipments of Citgo fuel to poor American families. BOSTON (AP) — Citgo, the Venezuelan government’s U.S.-based oil subsidiary, is reversing course and will continue shipments of heating oil to poor families in the United [...]
Good News: Porn Industry Seeks Bailout
7. January 2009
Silver lining: The hearings will certainly be entertaining. Is the porn industry up next for a bailout? If porn titans Joe Francis and Larry Flynt have anything to do with it, it will. Yes, ladies and gentleman, the titans of pornography are begging for a bailout. Joe Francis, creator of the “Girl’s Gone Wild” video [...]
French TV: Those Gazans Killed by the IDF We Showed You? Uh, Hamas Killed ‘Em in 2005
7. January 2009
Oops! Their mistake. Totally innocent, I’m sure. French public television network France 2 on Tuesday revealed they had aired photographs that allegedly showed destruction caused by the Israel Air Force during Operation Cast Lead, which were in fact taken during a different incident in 2005, one in which Gaza civilians were killed by an explosion [...]
