Posted on December 12, 2010 by Benny Hollywood| Comments Off on Time Mag’s Duffy: ‘Liberal Part of Obama Presidency Probably Over’

Time magazine's Michael Duffy said this weekend that the liberal part of Barack Obama's presidency is probably over. Maybe more surprising, no one on the syndicated “Chris Matthews Show” – including the host – disagreed with him (video follows with transcript and commentary): read more

AP’s Crutsinger Issues Incomplete, Sloppy, Misleading Report on November’s Record Deficit, Obama-GOP ‘Tax-Cut Plan’

Posted on December 12, 2010 by Benny Hollywood| Comments Off on AP’s Crutsinger Issues Incomplete, Sloppy, Misleading Report on November’s Record Deficit, Obama-GOP ‘Tax-Cut Plan’

How can you cover a story about Uncle Sam's November Monthly Treasury Statement and the proposed Obama-GOP compromise on taxes and unemployment benefits without using the words “spending,” “receipts,” any form of “collect,” or “unemployment”? It's a neat trick, but the Associated Press's Martin Crutsinger pulled it off in his Friday afternoon dispatch shortly after the government report's release. Instead of communicating apparently boring facts, Crutsinger concentrated his fire on the “tax-cut agreement” with a supposed “cost (of) $855 billion over two years” worked out by President Obama and Congressional Republicans. In doing so, he “somehow” failed to mention that the proposal includes a 13-month extension of unemployment benefits. Based on a comparison

Posted on December 11, 2010 by Benny Hollywood| Comments Off on Krauthammer on Clinton Quoting Him: ‘My Career is Done – Maybe NPR Will Take Me’

During his impromptu press conference in the White House briefing room Friday, former President Bill Clinton favorably referred to comments Charles Krauthammer made at the Washington Post earlier in the day. On Fox News's “Hannity” that evening, Krauthammer joked, “When you get praise from President Clinton and you are from my side of the aisle that means that my career is done, I mean, I'm toast. Maybe NPR will take me” (video follows with transcript and commentary): read more

Posted on December 11, 2010 by Benny Hollywood| Comments Off on Media Mostly Ignore Democrat Saying ‘F–k the President’

Barbara Walters Edits Mark Levin’s Book From Palin’s Reading List Answer

Posted on December 11, 2010 by Benny Hollywood| Comments Off on Barbara Walters Edits Mark Levin’s Book From Palin’s Reading List Answer

On Thursday, NewsBusters made it clear that no matter how Sarah Palin answered Katie Couric's pathetic reading list question back in 2008, the liberal media were going to ridicule her. On Friday, this point was made even clearer when Mark Levin told his radio audience that Palin's answer to Barbara Walters' same question on ABC's “10 Most Fascinating People of 2010” was edited to remove his best-selling book “Liberty and Tyranny” (audio follows courtesy Right Scoop ): read more

WaPo Thumps 2012 Hopeful Rick Santorum as ‘Notorious for His Moral Pronouncements’

Posted on December 10, 2010 by Benny Hollywood| Comments Off on WaPo Thumps 2012 Hopeful Rick Santorum as ‘Notorious for His Moral Pronouncements’

Washington Post political reporter Karen Tumulty explored the dark-horse presidential explorations of former Sen. Rick Santorum on the front page of Friday's paper. It was a fairly respectful story until it came time to discuss the former senator's “notorious” moral statements, and how he still “breathes fire” on occasion: Santorum was notorious for his moral pronouncements . He contended, for instance, that Boston's liberal culture was partly to blame for the sex-abuse scandal in the Catholic Church there, and suggested that lifting antiquated state sodomy laws would sanction bestiality — or as he put it, “man on dog.” Santorum still breathes fire . In his evolving stump speech, he frames the prospect of Obama's reelection in near-apocalyptic terms: “Democracy and freedom will disappear.” His agenda consists of stopping pretty much everything that has been set in motion in the past two years, starting with the overhaul of the nation's health-care system. read more
