Monica Conyers & Hipsters on Food Stamps
by Jenn Q. Public
Former Detroit Councilwoman Monica Conyers clutched a $1,000 Louis Vuitton handbag as she emerged from a chauffeured Lincoln Town Car to attend her sentencing for a bribery conviction. Just days later, a federal judge declared her indigent and appointed a public defender to represent her. Now taxpayers will foot the bill for the "destitute" Mrs. Conyers' to appeal her plea-bargained 37 month sentence. Never mind that her husband, U.S. Rep. John Conyers, Jr. (D-Mich), pulls down $174,000 a year. Why should an elected official help his wife with ...
Dear Media Matters: Catholics call them 'sins of omission'
by Kathy Shaidle
Media Matters' latest "gotcha" goes like this: National Catholic Reporter Endorses Health Care Bill With some pro-lifers trying to make the health care debate an argument over abortion, it was interesting to see the National Catholic Reporter, which knows a thing or two about anti-abortion views, come out in favor of the Obama health care plan. And then they quote the NCR editorial at length. Trouble is, I read the National Catholic Reporter every week for years, when I worked at a Catholic paper that considered itself the Canadian equivalent of ...
Stewart’s Glenn Beck Impression: The Best Ever?
by Ryan Mauro
“Progressivism is a cancer in America,” Glenn Beck said during his keynote speech at CPAC this year. He’s also repeatedly said it on his show. Jon Stewart, a progressive, reacted last night with a long monologue styled after Beck. And, I must say, it was pretty hilarious, topped off by Jon Stewart wearing white sneakers with his suit. Watch when he bends over onto the floor, at one point he actually shifts his feet, maybe realizing it would be better to hide them. I guess when your feet ...
Fox-al-Arabia News Swings Its Guns Toward Israel As Obama Administration Ramps Up Pressure On Netanyahu
by John L. Work
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is in one Hell of a spot. Tiny Israel, surrounded by Muslim States whose leaders want nothing more than to obliterate Her and drive any surviving Jews into the sea, is now taking fire from Fox-al-Arabia News. The Obama Administration is directing world condemnation at the Israelis - for building homes in the Israeli capital of Jerusalem. The United States is knuckling under to appease the World of Islam, and is throwing our best friend Israel under the bus. This is hope and ...
From the Writings of David Horowitz: March 19, 2010
by David Swindle
When I close my eyes and think of Susan, it is thirty-five years ago and she is coming out of Peter Collier’s office at Ramparts, the radical magazine where we all work. The Ramparts suite is located near Fisherman’s Wharf in the San Francisco marina, and the room we are standing in is drenched in the salt light reflecting off the Bay. Peter and Susan are engaged in an animated discussion about the article she is writing, which is itself a reflection ...
Don't Fill out your Census Form until you Read This!
by David Horowitz
Just received via email: The 10-year census is only to count the number of people in your house. Period. With that in mind, many people are suggesting that we fill out our census forms as follows and mail it back. Do not answer further questions from any census workers who come to your door. Do as you see fit. 1. Enter the number of people who live in your house. 2-5. Skip. 6. Check male or female. 7. Enter age only, not date of birth. 8. Skip. 9. Check "Some other race" and write in "American". 10. Skip. Again, these ...
NewsReal Blog Book Club: Robert Spencer Reveals Islam
by NewsReal Blog
This past week NRB's bloggers have been embroiled in a debate about the alleged existence of a moderate Islam. Strongly influencing this discussion ha been the scholarship of Robert Spencer who is the director of Jihad Watch, another publication of the David Horowitz Freedom Center. To educate yourself on these issues check out some of Spencer's books on Islam: The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam (and the Crusades) The Complete Infidel's Guide to the Koran The Truth About Muhammad: Founder of the World's Most Intolerant Religion Stealth Jihad: How Radical Islam is ...
Gubernatorial Candidate Jerry Brown Tells Labor Unions to Go on The Attack
by Michael van der Galien
The Los Angeles Times reports that "'Democratic gubernatorial candidate Jerry Brown spoke to a labor group Tuesday and urged them to go on the offensive." "We're going to attack whenever we can, but I'd rather have you attack," Brown said at a gathering of the California delegation of the Laborers' International Union of North America in Sacramento. "I'd rather be the nice guy in this race. We'll leave [the attacks] to ... the Democratic Party and others." Tucker Bounds, a spokesman for GOP candidate Meg Whitman, said Brown's pitch ...
Remember when civil disobedience was cool?
by Kathy Shaidle
Media Matters is now pretending to be outraged about Rush Limbaugh talking up "noncompliance with the health care reform legislation once it's signed into law" for "the third time." Here's Rush yesterday: But I just can't -- I can't -- just don't believe that here we are in 2010, and in three days the United States of America ceases to be a representative republic and turns into a veritable tyrannical dictatorship, which is essentially what's going to happen if this health care bill passes. I just -- and if ...
Ridiculously Exaggerated Political Rhetoric is Fun, Kids!
by Ryan Mauro
Does anyone ever feel like the opposition, no matter what party it is, tends to go a little in the nutty direction? I understand the frustration of seeing decisions made that you feel are dead wrong for the country being made and you can’t stop them, but sometimes the opposition goes a bit far in their tongue-lashings. Last night on The Daily Show, one such instance was pointed out. Rep. Steve King of Iowa was criticizing the Democrats’ health care plan, and noted how people were reacting in ...
