From whom, AP reporters? Who cares what they think, they're all going to vote for Obama in 2012 and everybody knows it. These media pukes need a dose of reality: they could affect a Democratic primary if there was one, because Democrats believe what they say. But Republicans hate their guts, and assume that anything they say is designed only to help Democrats. What else can one conclude about "allegations" where the accuser is unnamed and the supposed acts of harassment are unspecified? If there's a better definition of "unwarranted but mean-spirited smear," I don't know what it is.

If the debt ceiling is not raised, the worst thing that happens -- and many would call it the best thing -- is that the government could not borrow any more money. That does not mean the U.S. will default on its debt, nor does it mean that the government will shut down. It just means that the bureaucrats will have to figure out how to get by with only 75% of the money they thought they were going to have. Interest payments, bond redemptions, and the like can go on as scheduled. Social Security can continue to send out checks. Grants for studying the mating habits of the purple-crested louse, not so much.

Until one of these SuperBlue states goes bankrupt with an unemployment rate higher than 25%, liberals will still be able to con others into supporting their policies. The ideology cannot be defeated until some of group of them, somewhere, finally drives enough business out to where entire cities are being boarded up and abandoned, and their government runs out of Other People's Money. Detroit is almost there, but Detroit isn't large enough to convince people. Liberals will have to lay waste to New York or California before everyone finally 'gets it' that you can't run a government on unicorns and rainbows.

Now here come the believers to tell us that the gods are punishing us with volcanoes and earthquakes. Could it be more clear that this whole thing is a hoax?

This guy has been in office two years; his media sycophants can"t just declare that he has a 'new image' and make it so. His party lost more than 60 seats in the House... No president has done worse since 1928. If that 'reinvigorated' him, he is one weird dude.

C'mon, his FCC just made one major power grab, the EPA is doing one a week, the FDA is moving to make us all eat our spinach, and here comes this clown on the stage to SAY that he's "reducing burdensome regulations." So he gets a headline that SAYS he's doing X, a bunch of people who don't pay very much attention assume that he's doing X, and meanwhile Policy Y moves ahead full speed. It's government by deceit, executed by professional liars, and abetted by a Washington press corps that wants the liars to win.

They haven't stopped to think that this isn't 1995. They don't have the media monopoly they had then. There was no Fox News in 1995; only geeks had an Internet account, and web sites like this one did not exist. Even Free Republic -- the first of the big political discussion sites -- hadn't yet started up. It's no surprise that these days, they can't sell a crock like "Sarah Palin did it" because they can't make "Sarah Palin did it" come out of every known pore of the media. They can only make it come out of their media, while common sense reigns everywhere else, and Sarah Palin herself cannot be muzzled while she is smeared. As a consequence, the Left is not only failing to sell this, they are making public fools of themselves and further alienating sensible people.

The 'bad guys' are always able to get guns. All these bans do is keep everyone else defenseless.

There is no Fox News, only geeks have Internet accounts, and they can smear conservatives with impunity -- as they did in the wake of the Oklahoma City bombing -- and that nary a dissenting voice will be heard. Instead, half the country is watching them spew the very vitriol they claim to be decrying, engaging in the worst sort of hateful bigotry as they accuse others of bigotry and hate. It's obvious they have no clue how badly they are coming off. Most of them appear to live in liberal echo chambers, so they are unlikely to find out how badly they are fouling themselves until they are covered from head to toe in slime.

What, are we supposed to believe that these contributions ruined Olbermann's reputation as an unbiased journalist? The whole thing has "staged" written all over it.

Sure, it's all Bush's fault. The Republicans did it. If only. Does Halperin not understand how little credibility he and his Obama-worshipping colleagues in the left wing media retain with the public? People are laughing at guys like him; when they aren't angry at them for so seriously leading the country astray with their Advocacy Journalism. And now comes Halperin with more advocacy journalism, to "explain" why the messiah is a total flop who makes everything worse? One can only hope that Time, like Newsweek, ends up being sold for a buck to some retired plutocrat who wants to keep it as a pet.

We will thus have liberal quackpots authoritatively stating that D'Souza claims that Obama was born outside the US, and therefore deserves to be tossed down the Birther Hole. Meanwhile, the rest of the MSM will land in dentists' waiting rooms from sea to shining sea without a word of any of this.

Sherman probably figures that he knows the news, he reads the WaPo and the New York Times. But they spike stories that might hurt Democrats, so they leave him looking like an idiot.
