Observations on the health care 'summit'

First, the best coverage of the White House health care “summit” at Blair House in Washington, D.C., today is on C-SPAN 3 because it shows the name cards of the speakers and sometimes a chyron identifying the speaker. Also, it does not show irrelevent messages and a crawl as second-best Fox News is doing. CNN …

Hot guy booed from stage for anti-gay rant at … CPAC?

Smokin’ hot dude Ryan Sorba had barely launched into an anti-gay rant at CPAC around 6 pm, ET, Friday evening when the audience began to boo. And boo and boo and boo. Astonished but defiant, Sorba continued his rant and began to remove articles of clothing until he was stripped down to just a tight …

Obama is a sociopath and ridicule is his Kryptonite

moar funny pictures Most of the action here over the last few days, in terms of traffic, has been for a post I wrote last February about ridicule being Obama’s Kryptonite (see below for the link). It was relevant to a post Jonah Goldberg wrote at National Review Online’s “The Corner” about Obama having a …

Actually, Jonah, in taking on 'don't ask, don't tell,' Obama is saying to gays, 'bite me'

Over at National Review Online, Jonah Goldberg is counseling the Right not to take the bait on Obama’s promise finally to start the process of repealing “don’t ask, don’t tell,” with a piece entitled, “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell, Don’t Bite“: I’m basically with Amy Holmes and Jim Geraghty on this one. Conservatives shouldn’t take Obama’s …

Chris Matthews: 'For an hour I forgot he was black'

This post is a two-fer. Chris Matthews’ remark on MSNBC after Obama’s State of the Union speech, “For an hour I forgot he was black,” rightly has been ridiculed as revealing an all-consuming racism and, apparently, the fact that for the very first time Matthews, did what conservatives have been doing, which is consider Obama …

Obama's SOTU — 'PIVOT'

I live-blogged Obama’s State of the Union speech at Newsreal and began my coverage with this clip from “Friends” featuring the word, “Pivot!” The predictions for the SOTU speech were that Obama would use it to pivot toward the center. He didn’t, but I like the clip so much I’m keeping it. He did say …

You know who should be live blogging the SOTU? Republican members of Congress! THAT would be TEH AWESOME!!!

(H/T a commenter at Perfunction, which has other versions of this photo from the White House’s Flickr feed that are just as hilarious. Via Ace.) I just read Michelle Malkin’s post that Joe Wilson will be the first member of Congress to answer a State of the Union address with a live video post from …

UPDATED — Just a reminder before Obama's State of the Union speech

Photo proof Ellie Light is real — AND, she's written to Little Miss Attila

Well, the Right blogosphere is all aflutter today — Ellie Light is real! We have found her Facebook photo (above), AND she has written identical missives to Little Miss Attila, Dan Riehl (here and here) and other bloggers all proclaiming her reality and scathingly deriding the Right’s skepticism that she exists. Well, Obama got into …
