Neanderthal.

“Electric surge.”

Tingle.

I switched to MSNBC when Fox cut away from Fred’s pep talk in Columbia, SC. They all cackled after Thompson finished speaking.
I should have switched it off right there, but I decided to stay with the left-wing channel for Mitt Romney’s appearance.
The dorks at MSNBC grilled him over his hair, his unbuttoned collar, and [...]

“Methinks Paleface speak with forked tongue.”

On Tuesday, the GOP’s presidential candidates have a choice: Suck up and roll over for the liberal media establishment. Or grow some balls and fight back for once. Not. Holding. Breath.
The candidates will be appearing on nutroots cable TV’s MSNBC for a debate in Dearborn, Michigan. (Update clarification: It’s running on CNBC first, then [...]

While we’re on life issues, Bobby Schindler has a question for the GOP presidential candidates and un-moderate debate moderator Chris Matthews: “Since When Does Pro-Life Mean Killing The Disabled?”

Man, is it crowded.
HA thread here. PJM reaction coming here. Hewitt and Bear are at the Reagan Library. Power Line coverage here. Heading Right live-blogging here.
Rich Lowry: “They’re all talking too fast…”
Can’t blame them. What do they have each– 6 minutes total?

I’ve said before I think the homes of public figures should be off-limits to political protesters. It’s incivil and unncessary. Save it for the public square. Despite my deep disregard for Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s views, I feel the same way about the anti-war zealots who tramped up to Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s home in San Francisco:
A [...]

Here’s a correction appearing now at the top of the website version of an A1 story in the Washington Post that ran this morning (hat tip - Allah):

Here’s the original headline:

And the opening paragraphs:
Intelligence provided by former undersecretary of defense Douglas J. Feith to buttress the White House case for invading Iraq included “reporting of [...]

Jim Hoft thinks there might be disruptions from the balcony.
Brit Hume says Nancy Pelosi put on a new outfit for her historic moment at the last minute because she spilled chocolate on her suit.

Madame Speaker

Hang in there, Dick
Everything’s already anticlimactic from here. The full SOTU text is up–and so is Democrat Jim Webb’s rebuttal. Allah’s [...]

The digs at FOB Justice
My HotAir.com colleague Bryan Preston and I are back from Iraq. Thanks to Allah and Ian for holding down the fort at HA and thanks much to guest-bloggers Mary Katharine Ham, See-Dubya, and the Big Lizards for filling in here during my absence. Be sure to bookmark their blogs.
Our first [...]

Chris Matthews and Pat Buchanan got on my nerves this weekend.
Matthews sputters that if the “neoconservatives” had “been in a schoolyard fight in high school like they should have been, we wouldn’t be seeing the world we’re getting from them today.”
Buchanan blusters: “They’re calling for wars against people that never attacked us. I don’t [...]

Expose the Left has the video of Rep. Murtha’s verdict first, trial later condemnation of the US Marines. Here’s the partial transcript:
CHRIS MATTHEWS, HOST: Let me ask you Mr. Murtha to give us some details about that. Draw us a picture of what happened at Haditha.
REP. JOHN “JACK” MURTHA: Well, I’ll tell you exactly what [...]

***update: video clip of journos who broke the story here***
Time magazine reports (hat tip: Kathryn Lopez):
Rep. Tom DeLay, whose iron hold on the House Republicans melted as a lobbying corruption scandal engulfed the Capitol, told TIME that he will not seek reelection and will leave Congress within months. Taking defiant swipes at “the left” and [...]

Liberal bloggers, fresh from mauling Washington Post ombudsman Deborah Howell and launching a boycott campaign against, snort, MSNBC’s Chris Matthews, are now targeting Katie Couric for her “right-wing bias.” (Hat tip: Lorie Byrd at Polipundit)
Chuckle. Snort. Guffaw.
I’ve uploaded the exchange between Couric and DNC chair Howard Dean over Jack Abramoff and his associates’ donations to [...]

MSNBC’s Hardball show actually delivered some interesting news for once tonight, despite Chris Matthews’ anti-Bush spin and uninformed sputtering over the NSA counterterrorism program. NBC’s DOJ correspondent Pete Williams corrects Matthews’ assertion (borrowed from the NYTimes’ report yesterday) that top Justice Department officials opposed the NSA program.
In response to Matthews’ fulmination that “it wasn’t [...]

Here are a few of the crackpot sights and ridiculous sounds that made 2005 a year to remember (many thanks to Ian Schwartz at The Political Teen for his indispensable video blogging):
Video clips…
10. Spike Lee: Tinfoil hat-wearing levee expert
9. CNBC mugs Bernie Goldberg
8. Union thugs unhinged
7. Chris Matthews unhinged
6. MoveOn.org’s homage to “American” troops
5. [...]

Obviously the words “Never forget” mean nothing to Chris Matthews:
In a speech to political science students at the University of Toronto yesterday, the host of the CNBC current affairs show Hardball had plenty of harsh words for U.S. President George W. Bush, as well as the political climate that has characterized his country for [...]

Via Breitbart/AP, the federal grand jury investigating Plamegate met for three hours today with Special Counsel Patrick Fitzgerald and adjourned for the day without announcing any action.
Tom Maguire, who has covered every twist and turn of the story, posts his predictions. He thinks there will be no Karl Rove indictment.
If so, Chris Matthews’ [...]

Unhingedness all around us. Some nutball drove his truck through an anti-war display of crosses down at Camp Cindy Sheehan.
Nice to see the far Left finally outraged about the desecration of crosses.
Don’t seem to recall their outrage about this or this or this, though. Or, of course, this.

The death of the Pope just couldn’t stop the libs in the media from showing their true colors.
Example No. 1: Hawk-eyed Hinderaker at Power Line catches the New York Times in an amazing website goof that rivals CBS’s premature Terri Schiavo obit. Check out the screenshot for the anti-Pope bias in black and white. [...]

I am so sick of the sanctimony of MSM bigmouths lecturing conservatives about the need for civility in the wake of Terri Schiavo’s murder. Look at what MSNBC talk show host Chris Matthews said yesterday on Don Imus’ radio show–a brutish, grotesque, and slanderous quote that the Imus website proudly spotlighted as one of its [...]

At long last Washington Post media critic Howard Kurtz has written a full column about the so-called “GOP Talking Points” memo supposedly circulated by Republicans nearly two weeks ago. (Kurtz briefly mentioned the issue last week.)
As I alluded to here, ABC News is defending itself on the ground that Linda Douglass reported that the [...]

John Hinderaker of Power Line got this quote from an ABC News source (via Josh Claybourn) on the fishy Schiavo memo first disclosed by ABC News reporter Linda Douglass:
the memo discussed a republican bill and was distributed to repulbican senators. That’s what we reported. we are obviously not going to divulge our multiple sources. [...]

Power Line wants to know who wrote and circulated an amateurish unsigned memo about the Schiavo case that was circulated to Senate Republicans last week.
Thanks to Power Line, we now know that the memo was written on paper without letterhead and contained no identifying information as to who sent it or who it was distributed [...]

I was recently interviewed by John Hawkins of Right Wing News. He asked me for my thoughts on a wide range of topics, including immigration, internment, death threats, Chris Matthews, Wonkette, Andrew Sullivan, Eason Jordan, and the MSM’s lack of interest in Easongate. Click here to read it.

We made it. Barely! Still feeling queasy and exhausted (thanks for all the kind get-well e-mails), but was glad I held out long enough to meet so many nice, cool people at CPAC yesterday.
Hubby and kids had a great time wandering around the cavernous Ronald Reagan building, a behemoth, federally-subsidized architectural irony which I went [...]
