I apologize for the following. It was written in anger brought on by listening to All Things Considered for three whole minutes, a mistake I shall not repeat. Is NPR any better than Charles Gibson? No. In any case, the frothing lather below should be recognizable to anyone unfortunate...

I don't know what you plan to do with your tax rebate, but I'd like to put mine to a good cause: buying the FCC a spine.
Tonight's Democratic presidential debate is sponsored by ABC, and as the New York Times pointed out, the network is treating it...

Lately, it seems, Barack Obama has found himself almost constantly playing defense, with McCain and Clinton double-teaming him at every turn. In the post-March 4th world, though, Obama has decided not just to attack his opponent McCain, but he's also going after the real enemy--his work wife, Hillary Clinton.
Obama...

The Democratic Presidential Debate on February 21 finally clarified the essential difference between Senators Clinton and Obama. First, they are similar on matters of policy - domestic and foreign. The differences between them, as in mandatory health insurance, are minimal. Even regarding Iraq, despite Obama having been against the invasion...

CNN.com, where I watched Obama and Clinton square off last night, ran interstitial news pieces instead of commercials. One of the features was graphic results from "people meters" operated by a small group of Democrats watching the debate on the SMU campus in Dallas.
These are the handheld devices...

The first time Hillary Clinton ran a television ad complaining about Barack Obama's unwillingess to debate in Wisconsin, he fired back with an ad of his own about the 18 debates he's already participated in and the two more that are scheduled.
She wouldn't let it go; her subsequent ad...

For entertainment value it was hard to beat the Monday-night hissing match. It may end up being one of the few times in history that the sympathy figure was the white guy. John Edwards struggled for attention, while Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama dumped on one another. For good measure,...

I had a dream. As I've written in Huffpo, I've been a strong John Edwards supporter. But as Barack Obama gave his inspirational victory speech after winning the Iowa caucuses, I could envision Obama's Inaugural Address: Just as JFK's "ask not what your country can do you" Inaugural Address ushered...

In first half of the SC Congressional Black Caucus debate, listeners saw both a sharp exchange over substantive issues (health care plans, sub-prime lending, usury, etc), and a series of sharp swords over character issues. The interests of the Democratic party and the longer-term interest of its candidates were best...
