Far too many on the far left take seriously their own hot air about Bush and various members of his administration being evil. Rove in particular has been endowed with extraordinary powers of evil to the point where the emperor in Star Wars looks like a kiddie playing with a train set in comparison.
As the [...]

Was watching TV3 at 7:30, and their news updated reported that the smacking petition had “failed” because “people cheated by signing more than once”.
Quite aside from the fact that the petition has not failed, it paints those who signed as dishonest where reality is that all petitions have this.
The real story here is very, very [...]

LGF points out (among others) that after days of failing to label Spitzer’s party in news stories, AFP finally managed to give him a tag - but the wrong one.
Blow me down, it’s still there!!

Lest we forget, Mr Eliot Spitzer is not the only Democrat superdelegate in trouble at present. He’s also not the only one whom the media are reluctant to place that “D” beside the name.
A few days before Eliot Spitzer went down in flames, a highly-connected Barack Obama superdelegate was mired in accusations of corruption, bid-rigging [...]

Newsbusters also looks at how the media missed the point on the “7 sins” story.
L’Osservatore Romano printed the interview of Gianfranco Girotti, a bishop who is a member of the Vatican’s Supreme Tribunal of the Apostolic Penitentiary, in its March 9 edition. In it, Girotti discussed “new forms of social sin,” and gave examples [...]

Brent Bozell’s column on Mliot Spitzer is well worth reading.

Radio New Zealand again…
An organisation representing private schools says the new curriculum allows some taxpayer-funded schools to teach a radical and fundamentalist view of the world.

The left just made sure that the Democrats are going to loose, because McCain can win plenty of left leaning voters, it was always just a matter of whether he could count on the right. After this performance, that’s much more certain.
Yesterday the New York Times ran its hit job on John McCain.

Ok, so they’re not using those exact words… but with this patent nonsense it’s quite clear that that’s their strategy.
I can’t put it better than NewsBusters.
From Elisabeth Bumiller’s New York Times follow-up article of today [emphasis added]:

If you hang around the right of the ’sphere, you’ll notice people picking on the NY Times a lot. Frankly, they’re tanking, and it’s funny that this is happening at the same time that they’ve published several stories that are, to be frank, treason.
So what of this country?

It’s been reported today that Kucinich has pulled out of the race for the Democrat nomination.
That surprised me, since last time he insisted on staying in the “race” till the end, long after ever single other candidate had acknowledged that Kerry was the nominee.

I can’t find the post, but NewsBusters noted one news program in the US devoted 15 minutes of coverage to Democrats, and about 15 seconds to republicans.
