Last week, Hillary Clinton issued what she called the “Rutgers pledge” in the wake of the Don Imus firing:
“Will you be willing to speak up and say, “Enough is enough,’ when women or minorities or the innocent or powerless are marginalized or denigrated?” Clinton said in her speech to about 700 people. “Will you [...]

The techblogging elite, liberal femme bloggers, and their friends in the MSM are still yammering amongst themselves about the Kathy Sierra incident. Bloggers’ code of conduct. Civility badges. Blah blah blah.
Big props to Mary Katharine Ham for calling out the one-eyed, left-wing women bloggers (who still won’t admit their blind spot) and for demonstrating tough, [...]

…but HuffPo and Co. only complain when it’s directed at themselves.
No mention of hate-monger Jane Hamsher’s “b**ch is dead meat” and “sandpaper sn**ch” attacks on Kate O’Beirne.
No mention of other “feminist” attacks on independent-minded (read: non-left) bloggers–a phenomenon Dr. Helen noted here.

Flashback: Netroots vs. Rightroots: left-wingers love blackface

Don Murphy is the producer of Natural Born Killers, Apt Pupil, Double Dragon, and The Transformers movie. He was the former business partner of unhinged, trash-talking, blackface-endorsing left-wing blogger, Jane Hamsher.
These people can’t express themselves without sinking into the gutter. Here’s Murphy’s response to pro-life actors Patricia Heaton and Jim Cavaziel, posted on his website [...]

Because this white Republican’s about to talk about race and politics.
My take on the game of Whack-a-Racist, in light of the George Allen incident this week,in my Examiner column today.
The incident happened Friday. Since then, it’s been worth two stories and an editorial in The New York Times and eight stories — three on [...]

US Senate candidate Ned Lamont of Connecticut, darling of the left-wing blogosphere, is now running as fast as he can from the nutball bloggers who have zealously promoted his campaign against Sen. Joe Lieberman from its inception. (Today’s Vent gives the overview.) And he’s lying through his teeth in his effort to rid himself of [...]

Looking for a late-night laugh? Check out the fulmination from Ned Lamont’s nutroots gal pal, Jane Hamsher, sputtering about her blackface debacle. Guess whose fault it is that she made an insane decision to publish the minstrel Photoshop of Joe Lieberman on her Huffington Post blog entry? It’s those damned “right-wing Republicans:”
I sincerely apologize to [...]

***update: the blackface Photoshop has been removed without acknowledgement at HuffPo…screencap below…***

Ned Lamont with his favorite race-baiters, Rep. Maxine Waters and nutroots all-star Jane Hamsher
Following up on my blog post this morning pointing out the disgusting blackface Photoshop published by Democratic Senate candidate Ned Lamont’s number one promoter in the blogosphere, Jane Hamsher at the [...]

With so much breaking news in the Middle East, I’ve been neglecting politics on the homefront. So, here are a few links and asides on a few noteworthy campaign developments on both sides of the aisle:
The netroots/nutroots are putting their proverbial eggs in the Ned Lamont basket. They are pulling out all the [...]
