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 [...]

Don’t take a conservative’s word for it. No less a left-wing authority than Kim Gandy of NOW has let Sonia Sotomayor’s liberal cat out of the bag . . .
Gandy today described PBO’s pick for the Supreme Court as “very progressive.” The NOW honcho was a guest on this evening’s Ed Show. She was preceded [...]
Well, at least he didn’t call him shiftless . . .
On this afternoon’s Hardball, Howard Fineman twice called RNC Chairman Michael Steele “lazy,” adding “he doesn’t work that hard.”
Now, I don’t in fact believe there was any racial overtone involved. I am explicitly not accusing Fineman of racism. But I mention the incident to illustrate [...]
Talk about standing by your man! When a foreign policy expert explained the timing of today’s Iranian missile launch in terms of a Persian perception of Pres. Obama’s weakness, MSNBC’s Contessa Brewer leapt to PBO’s defense, throwing in an invidious comparison with Pres. Bush for good measure.

I’ve been wondering why all those “Dissent Is Patriotic” bumper stickers that abounded here in the liberal haven of Ithaca, NY during the Bush era disappeared once Barack Obama came to office. Now I think I know why: Ed Schultz must have come to town and torn them off.
On his MSNBC show this evening, reacting [...]
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. The first time it happened to me was a NewsBusters item that came to be known as “Canoegate.” On the Today show, NBC’s Michelle Kosinski was dramatically reporting on flooding [...]

Remember O. Henry’s tale, The Ransom Of Red Chief? A couple of con men kidnap a rich banker’s son. The boy turns out to be a hellion who makes the kidnappers’ lives a living hell. By the end of the story, rather than paying a ransom, the boy’s father demands money to take the rascal [...]

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 [...]
Let’s just say that Arlen Specter has not been unanimously embraced by his new-found fellow Democrats today. Notice was served on Ed Schultz’s MSNBC show this evening that it might be far from smooth sailing to the PA Dem Senate nomination for the quondam Republican.
Joe Sestak, a Dem PA congressman who has been preparing for [...]
