If you remember, the main defense of ACORN was that the Philadelphia office threw the investigative reporters out and called the cops. Media clung to this narrative as much as they could. Looks like they’ll be wiping egg from their face today.

I guess they will not support it, since there really are no details
While the majority of Americans appear to have made up their minds on healthcare reform, 39% say their support for a final healthcare bill will depend on how the details still being worked out in Congress are resolved.
The finding comes from a USA [...]
More on the new Canadian temperature “hockeystick”

The Mann and Briffa “hockeysticks” (records of a late 20th century temperature rise) were eventually shown to depend on just a few atypical tree rings, and tree-rings are an unreliable reflection of temperature anyway, so the latest “hockeystick”, based on various creepy-crawlies found in a far-Northern Canadian lake, must be giving the [...]

According to McClatchy news, in the Democrat’s 2006 campaign book, in the “integrity” section, the Democratic leadership vowed that legislation would be posted online for 24 hours before consideration of the final versions of any bill. That promise coupled with their president’s claims that he’d post all bills online for five whole [...]

UN “Special Rapporteur” Martin Scheinin recently filed a report with the UN titled “Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms While Countering Terrorism” in which he states that human gender is not a fixed thing but a mere “social construct” that is “changeable over time.”
In this paper Scheinin, the “Special Rapporteur” — [...]

In an interesting take on what is or isn’t legal, a union is threatening a critical blog for using the union’s name in its blog title. The American Federation of Teachers had its lawyers send a cease and desist letter to the operators of a blog called AFTexposed.com.

Looks like the days of shooting flowers and hugs at the enemy might be coming sooner then we thought
President Barack Obama signed an executive order earlier this month requiring federal agencies to set a 2020 greenhouse gas emission reduction target within 90 days – and he followed up by asking “our brave men and women [...]

The headline caught my eye. Journalism does indeed need preserving, but my ideas about how to do so were not even close to those laid out in the report.
I am thinking that journalism needs more of a scrubbing – a good clean-up, more about getting to journalist ethics. A report, co-authored [...]

The free market is nonsense? How many communist leaning associates have to be exposed before America wakes up to realize we put a radical in power of our country?

I’ve been behind the curve on this story, because I guess I dismissed its importance to the bigger picture….but slander in an attempt to muffle free speech and free press to this degree can’t go ignored. Jake Tapper pinned down Gibbs with the essential question:

In light of this revelation, there is only one sensible course of action: PANIC!
World leaders have 50 days to save the Earth from irreversible global warming, British Prime Minister Gordon Brown said Monday.

You knew it had to come sooner or later
For years, leading plaintiffs’ lawyers have promised a legal assault on industrial America for contributing to global warming.
So far, the trial bar has had limited success. The hurdles to such suits are pretty obvious: How do you apportion fault and link particular plaintiffs’ injuries to the pollution [...]

The U.S. military is not just fighting wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, America’s most renowned investigative journalist says.
The army is also “in a war against the White House [...]

KINSTON, N.C. — Voters in this small city decided overwhelmingly last year to do away with the party affiliation of candidates in local elections, but the Obama administration recently overruled the electorate and decided that equal rights for black voters cannot be achieved without the Democratic Party.

U.S. Representative Judy Biggert (R, Hinsdale, IL) introduced legislation last week intended to prevent misuse of federal housing counseling funds.
