Mixed Feelings On Olbermann

Media

By now I’m sure everyone has heard that Keith Olbermann has been suspended indefinitely from MSNBC for contributing to political campaigns without disclosing those contributions to his superiors at MSNBC. There has been a lot of back and forth over this decision in the blogosphere and twitterverse today. I have mixed feelings on the story. […]

Society

Within an hour of finding out the lunatic rantings of James J. Lee, the man who stormed the Discovery building earlier this week, blogs on the left and right took to the partisan hits. To the left he was a right wing extremist and to the right he was some left wing extremist. Today The […]

It couldn’t happen to a nicer guy either: The Republican National Committee has cancelled a fundraiser with conservative blogger Andrew Breitbart, who is under fire for promoting an edited video that falsely portrays former Agriculture Department employee Shirley Sherrod as having boasted about discriminating against a white farmer looking for her assistance.

While discussing the new law in Arizona that says candidates must show their birth certificate to be on the ballot, Rep.

The Noise And Silence From The Right

Media

Last night I noticed something rather interesting. Before the breaking news email alerts went out of the suspected “shoe bombing” aboard United Flight 663 the right side of the blogosphere jumped into action. It was like watching a seed turn into a tree in some cartoon where they put some sort of Acme Super Grow […]

Is The Right Fearing The Rhetoric?

Politics

I think we are seeing a pattern emerge showing that the right is starting to get worried about the increased violent and slanderous rhetoric from some of their extremes. Let me give a couple of examples pointing to this. First we have Tom Coburn this weekend. Coburn has never been considered what one would call […]
