In a column I wrote several months ago, I mentioned how I watched a lot of professional wrestling as a child. One of my favorite wrestlers back then was Rowdy Roddy Piper, the crafty and sharp-tongued arch-nemesis of fan favorite, Hulk Hogan. Piper was kind of the J.R.

It’s astounding to me that some people think that way. Heck, Media Matters exists just to pick apart every word, phrase, sentence that is uttered on Fox News. First, let me say that I watch the O’Reilly Factor regularly. I love Bill and I don’t get why anyone doesn’t like him. Maybe he’s an acquired…
One of my all time favorite television characters is Michael Scott from The Office (back when the show was still funny). The self-centered and incompetent, though well-meaning office manager was portrayed masterfully by actor Steve Carell. One of the many trademarks of the character was his internal need to demonstrate to his subordinates that he…
So Bill O’Reilly says Newt Gingrich is doing well bashing the media — will that strategy work in a general election, he wants to know?

Thursday morning, it was announced that ABC News’ Brian Ross conducted an interview last week with Newt Gingrich’s ex-wife, Marianne Gingrich. Marianne was the second wife of the former Speaker of the House. The two had a well-publicized, messy divorce after Newt began an affair with his current wife, Callista, in the mid 1990s. Marianne…
In last Saturday’s GOP presidential debate, ABC News commentator George Stephanopoulos asked Mitt Romney an unusual question. He wanted to know if the former Massachusetts governor believed that states had the right to ban the use of contraception. When Romney voiced his opinion that the question was both odd and irrelevant since no states or…
By now you probably have heard about the MSNBC drive-by aimed at Mitt Romney; the one that said he used the same slogan on the campaign trail as the Ku Klux Klan used to use. Well, not really. MSNBC got the “story” from a liberal blog which claimed that Romney had used the term “keep…
