The answer to everything

(Photoshop via Doug Ross) Eddie Haskell Brooks by Michelle Malkin Creators Syndicate Copyright 2012 New York Times columnist David Brooks is the Eddie Haskell of the Fourth Estate. Like the two-faced sycophant in “Leave It to Beaver,” Brooks indulges in excessive politeness while currying favor with political authority. He prides himself on an oily semblance […]

The frenemy within

Journo-tools For Obama by Michelle Malkin Creators Syndicate Copyright 2012 Can we stop calling the hosts of the presidential debates “moderators”? They’re left-erators. It’s time for the old media godfathers to end the pretense that they’re fair and neutral observers of the American political scene. And it’s time for the GOP to stop perpetuating these […]

Via JWF, the lapdog media admits that its cadre of real reporters allow the Obama press staff to vet and rewrite their, um, work. Jim Messina’s profanity gets whitewashed out. David Axelrod’s blowhardiness gets tightened up. And quotes fed by anonymous officials are now published at unprecedented “new levels.” The Fishwrap of Record meekly acknowledges […]

More creepy Occupy Wall Street-related news from, believe it or not, the Fishwrap of Record. We need not imagine how much more damning the headlines would have been if this had been a Tea Party event instead of an major Occupier protest. Let’s hope the family of Sarah Fox is able to find resolution and […]

Sigh. Let me say that again: Siiiiiiiiiiiiiigh. If you were unfortunate enough to watch Saturday night’s GOP debate in New Hampshire, you saw a pageant of feckless non-Romneys fail to step up to the plate and forcefully challenge Mitt Romney’s presumptive claim to the GOP presidential nomination. Newt Gingrich, who has spent the last week […]

People make honest mistakes. When right-leaning people make them, Soros-funded Media Matters turns it into Apocalypse Now and an opportunity to discredit all of conservatism. But when liberal journos err, it’s like the proverbial trees falling in the forest. Does anybody hear the muffled sound? Last night while I was on Twitter, a few left-leaning […]

Will the New York Times ombudsman respond to this serious charge from a fellow mainstream journalist — or will it be whitewashed away? David Newhouse, editor of the Patriot-News, has blown the whistle on the Fishwrap of Record’s reckless disclosure of identifying details about one of Penn State accused child predator/rapist Jerry Sandusky’s victims: The […]

(Photoshop via Doug Ross) The last time I blogged about David Brooks’s bloviations, I opened by asking: “How much of a tool is New York Times columnist David Brooks?” Brooks answers the question himself in his latest column: I’m a sap, a specific kind of sap. I’m an Obama Sap. When the president said the […]

The editor of the New York Times just got religion: He thinks it’s time to ask GOP presidential candidates “tougher questions about faith.” Oh, brother, where wast thou in 2008? The Fishwrap of Record led the whitewashing of Barack Obama’s wacky black liberation theology pals and freaky-deaky Chicago pastors. Now, the skews-paper is ready to […]

**Written by Doug Powers It only stands to reason that if the 4th of July is more of a Republican holiday, it must be inherently bad for the environment. I mean, that’s what Republicans are all about, right? Fortunately, an op-ed in the New York Times is there to help “green” our Independence Day feast: […]

Just awful. Let’s hope the missing journalists are indeed in Libyan government custody and will be released safely ASAP. My heart goes out to the families. Our family knows the kind of hell they are going through right now. Praying for a safe return: Four New York Times journalists covering the fighting in Libya were […]

My column today spotlights the left-wing/New York Times alliance against Chick-Fil-A. Anti-corporate/anti-Christian blogs + MSM advocacy journalism = job-sabotaging smear machine. Chick-Fil-A isn’t the only one in the restaurant industry targeted by the progressive mob over the past month. The SEIU has been waging open-borders attacks on restaurant chain Chipotle simply because the company complied […]

(Image credit: PTG, 2006 NYT blabbermouths photoshop contest 2006) Last week, it was the Washington Post spilling the beans on the nation’s post-9/11 top-secret infrastructure. Today, it’s the NYTimes dutifully splashing vengeful Wikileaks’ massive document dump on our Afghanistan military strategy. The Times tries not to break its collective arm patting itself on the back […]

Well, it’s good to see the New York Times finally paying attention to Democrats who tell bogus war stories: At a ceremony honoring veterans and senior citizens who sent presents to soldiers overseas, Attorney General Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut rose and spoke of an earlier time in his life. “We have learned something important since […]

This is Charles Blow. Blow is an African-American columnist for the New York Times. He flew down to the Dallas Tea Party to see what he could see. He saw what he wanted to see and he might as well have used the new smear term from Tea Party-bashers that I noted last week: “Tea […]

The AJC’s Cynthia Tucker blogged today about a testy exchange we had last summer on ABC’s “This Week” regarding government unemployment benefits and the effect that endless extensions have on reducing the incentive to seek a job. Once again, she mistakes standard economic arguments for moral judgments: “Does the right really believe the unemployed are […]

Longtime readers know that fearless young conservative firebrand Jason Mattera has been a great friend of mine and of Hot Air’s for years. You also know from his countless videos that he’s got a Brooklyn accent thickah than an old-growth redwood tree. Yesterday, he gave a rousing, raucous speech at CPAC in Washington, D.C. To […]

So, apparently a top Taliban commander has been captured in a joint secret operation by Pakistan and the U.S. He is apparently a big, big fish and reportedly is being interrogated by officials from both countries: The commander, Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar, is an Afghan described by American officials as the most significant Taliban figure […]

(Photoshop via Doug Ross) New York Times columnist David Brooks will never let an opportunity pass to remind you that he is an intellectual and you are a grimy member of the unwashed masses. His column today pays a back-handed tribute to the success of the Tea Party movement…while bemoaning the decline of influence among […]

The sky is falling.

White Christmas.
