When candidate Obama talked about bringing us all together, this is presumably not what he had in mind . . .
There was surprising consensus on today’s Morning Joe around the fact that this is an arrogant White House. It was press secretary Robert Gibb’s boast—responding to Pres. Bush’s rather mild recent remarks—that “we kept score [...]
Between now and the final confirmation vote, how many times will we hear of Sonia Sotomayor’s “moving personal narrative”? But as Pat Buchanan, Joe Scarborough and Ann Coulter pointed out this morning, touching personal tales meant nada to Dems when the minority judicial nominee wasn’t a liberal.
Clarence Thomas and Miguel Estrada each had moving stories [...]

The sitting Speaker of the House of Representatives has accused the CIA of lying to Congress. She is ensnared in a web of conflicting accounts. Her very hold on power could be under a cloud. Meh. Guess we can find some room on A20. But pot pies need to be heated to 165 degrees to [...]
Is a new Mika Brzezinski emerging: a more fair-’n-balanced one? Signs point to yes.
Yesterday on Morning Joe, as noted here, Joe Scarborough described the members of the White House press corps as being “in love” with Pres. Obama to the extent that at the big dinner this past Saturday night that PBO attended, they were [...]
For a blogger, heaven is having an item linked at Drudge, where it is sure to generate tens if not hundreds of thousands of hits.

German linguists might have to add a couple syllables to “schadenfreude” to capture the sentiments of those observing the NY Times/Boston Globe death match. People aren’t just revelling in the papers’ misfortune anymore. They can now simultaneously delight in the Times’ hypocrisy.
On today’s Morning Joe, Mike Barnicle blasted the NY Times as the “most hypocritical [...]
Was Joe Biden giving solid advice . . . or sowing the seeds of panic? Asked on Today this morning how he’d counsel family members in light of the swine flu, the Veep said he wouldn’t take a plane, a subway train, or be in any other confined space.
Just minutes later, the Morning Joe crew [...]
With CNN’s Sanjay Gupta having taken himself out of the running, could NBC’s Dr. Nancy Snyderman be positioning herself to be named Surgeon General in the Obama administration?
Seriously. I ask because given the chance to question Janet Napolitano today, Snyderman, NBC’s chief medical editor, prefaced her inquiry with glowing praise for the Director of Homeland [...]
I’ve never seen anything quite like it. A network correspondent presuming to school a pundit in PC-speak . . .
It happened on today’s Morning Joe. Discussing Pres. Obama’s announced plans to address the immigration issue, Andrea Mitchell claimed that “there didn’t seem to be as much anger about immigration.” Retorted Pat Buchanan: “just you wait [...]
The Euro leaders’ adulation of The Obama didn’t translate into providing any more combat troops for Afghanistan. Some might chalk it up to commonplace continental fecklessness. But Tucker Carlson has offered a much more chilling explanation, one with ramifications extending far beyond the specific matter at hand.
Appearing on Morning Joe today, Carlson flatly stated that [...]
