JOURNOLIST SCANDAL: WHY HASN’T EZRA KLEIN BEEN FIRED BY THE WASHINGTON POST?

Ezra Klein’s specialty when he began blogging at TAP back in 2007 was health care, and you will be hard put to find a more prolific writer of dumb reform posts. Nonetheless, that continued to be his primary focus after his ascent to the Washington Post. But stupidity is a kind of birth defect, and one should make allowances.
It is, however, harder to […]

POLLS: OBAMACARE GETTING LESS POPULAR

No matter how many whoppers our progressive friends tell about Obamacare’s popularity, the reality is that the public likes it less and less. The following chart from Pollster.com tells the tale:

And, if you pull out the numbers for likely voters, the picture gets decidedly worse. As Michael Cannon at Cato points out, polls of likely voters […]

VIDEO: OBAMA DOJ FREED THIS WHACKJOB?

A few weeks ago a progressive medblogger with whom I occasionally cross swords scoffed at my suggestion that the Justice Department was being used to impose Obama’s vision of health care on the country, calling it a paranoiac conspiracy theory. In reality, there is absolutely NOTHING the Obama DoJ would shrink from in its effort to transform the country into a banana republic.
That’s […]

AUDIO: ANDREW BREITBART EXPLAINS WHY THE “JOURNOLIST” COVER-UP MATTERS

A lot of ”progressive” bloggers and journalists are whining because Andrew Breitbart has offered $100K for the archives of “Journolist.” Why are they upset? Because they are terrified that hundreds of high-profile journalists will be outed as corrupt purveyers of Lefty propaganda. 
Wapo blogger Ezra Klein, who founded the list, has taken it down in a Nixonian attempt to cover up the truth, but one of Journolist’s 400 members […]

VIDEO: KEEP YOUR FCC OFF MY INTERNET

As a blogger and constant user of the internet, the thought of a bunch of federal apparatchiks interferring with the internet sends cold chills down my spine. This video provides three good reasons for preventing the FCC from getting its incompetent bureaucratic tentacles on the web. Among other things, it disposes of the net neutrality scam for which so many naive […]

PALIN RUMOR A BIG BUST

You know the Spring traffic slump has hit when the big blogs are so desperate to enhance their stats that they’re running a story about Sarah Palin’s bold new … er … leadership. To heck with oil leaks and Iranian nukes. They want to know if Sarah has been up front with us on elective surgery. Via Newsbusters:
The rumor started Tuesday on the […]

FIRST, THEY CAME FOR THE BLOGGERS (II)

Last August, the Obama White House sent up the moonbat signal, requesting its mindless minions to inform on their fellow citizens:
If you get an email or see something on the web about health insurance reform that seems fishy, send it to flag@whitehouse.gov.
That didn’t work out very well (we think), but the Dems haven’t given up […]

ALLAHPUNDIT JUMPS THE SHARK ON THE “NO OBOT” DOC

Hot Air  notes that Dr. Jack Cassell, whose no Obama voters door sign created so much buzz, has more or less recanted. This is no big shocker (he never said he would refuse to treat anyone), but Allahpundit’s comments are something of a surprise (and not a pleasant one):
Yes, the guy has a right to free […]

FIRST THEY CAME FOR THE BLOGGERS

In an apparent attempt to prove that the term ”progressive” is a synonym for “fascist,” the Obama administration has published this seriously creepy request on the White House web site:
If you get an email or see something on the web about health insurance reform that seems fishy, send it to flag@whitehouse.gov.
Yes. you read that right. The Obama […]

BLUE MEAT FOR THE BLOGROLL

For your reading pleasure and edification, I’ve added Movin’ Meat to the HCBS blogroll. Its proprietor (”Shadowfax”) is an ER doc practicing in the Pacific Northwest and the blog often provides useful and amusing insights into the real world of emergency medicine.
Despite the fact that Shadowfax is a confirmed Obamaton whose idealism sometimes overwhelms his capacity […]
