And Now For A New York Times Hit Piece of Boehner
Barack Obama decides to attack House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-OH) and just a few days later the lefty New York Times publishes a shoddy hit piece on the same Republican leader. Just a coinky dink, I’m sure. As we know, a lefty administration and lefty media outlet would never coordinate attacks on political opponents. [...]

Lefty Conspiracy of the Day: Limbaugh Attended Same High School as Terry Jones
10. September 2010
Just to be clear, Barack Obama sitting in the pews of Reverend Jeremiah Wright’s church for twenty years doesn’t mean a damn thing, or so we’re told. But the fact that Rush Limbaugh and Koran-burning Pastor Terry Jones attended the same high school four decades ago? Apparently that’s Watergate 2.0. There’s nothing more to the [...]
But of Course: NYT Won’t Publish Photos of Burning Koran
