The Republican tax cut cult, as Arianna so aptly calls it in her new book, has achieved its zenith in California. Here, if you must have a yacht or private jet, you can have it...

This week three below-the-fold scandals threatened three politicians while Sen. Obama stayed "clean," in the good meaning of Sen. Biden's adjective of a year ago. Because Barack Houdini easily escaped the chains of Rev. Wright and because of "the math" after the North Carolina romp, it certainly looks like it's...

Arianna Huffington's new book, Right Is Wrong, should revive interest in numerous sins of omission and commission on the part of the mainstream media in the past few years. One episode -- dating from three years ago this month -- that I discuss briefly in my new book on Iraq...

There was an interesting moment in Thursday's interview with Cindy McCain on the TODAY Show, especially in light of the intense buzz surrounding whether the McCains actually voted for Bush in 2000. (This, in addition to Arianna Huffington's...

While channel surfing this week I unfortunately caught a few minutes of the hateful and uninformed Glenn Beck on CNN Headline News. Why does this specimen have an hour each night to spew his toxic ideological waste? It was like watching one of those TV shows where animals attack people....

By so obviously snubbing Huffington, NBC looked petty. By stubbornly refusing to acknowledge its role in the Pentagon propaganda program, NBC looked weak.
Behold your so-called liberal media at work.
Of the two sad tales last week, one seemed petty; the other rather profound. In both cases, NBC...

As many of you have no doubt seen, the straight-talking reformer had the following to say about Arianna, after she exposed yet another bit of hypocrisy about a man who at this point might join Karl Rove in smearing hiw own daughter if he thought it would win him...

One of my favorite segments in Arianna Huffington's new book, Right is Wrong, is timed perfectly to the latest polling news: That George W. Bush has officially been crowned the most unpopular president in modern history, with a disapproval rating over 70%.
So let's return to her take on...

Here is some of the stuff from Arianna Huffington's new book, Right is Wrong, that NBC's Tim Russert has worked himself into a lather over and doesn't want you to read.
On Russert pumping up the panic:
Take Tim Russert, whose July 1, 2007, Meet the Press interview...

Ben Stein has taken his droll "I-am-SO-smarter-than-you" schtick to the big screen in a lame attempt to become the Right's pseudo-intellectual answer to liberal gadfly and moralist Michael Moore. His effort, entitled "Expelled," purports to show how closed-minded science is toward the self-described "scientists" who support Intelligent Design (ID). Known...

It seems that Arianna Huffington has run up against the impenetrable wall that is Tim Russert's ego. Huffington, who is currently on tour for her new book Right Is Wrong: How the Lunatic Fringe Hijacked America, Shredded the Constitution, and Made Us All Less Safe, will be appearing...

In her column in the New York Times yesterday, "Desperately Seeking Street Cred," Maureen Dowd focuses her Pulitzer-prize winning intellect like a laser beam directly on the forehead of Barack Obama, who in previous articles she deemed "Obambi." This time around Dowd claims that Obama's problem is that he...

Arianna appeared Saturday at the Los Angeles Times Festival Of Books at UCLA, and spoke to C-Span's BookTV about her latest book, Right Is Wrong: How the Lunatic Fringe Hijacked America, Shredded the Constitution, and Made Us All Less Safe. Arianna spoke to several callers about why she wrote the...
