Audacity of Truth
Whiner-in-Chief:
"[W]hether the grumbling is about Republicans on Fox or bloggers in pajamas, there's a word for what the president and his aides are doing. That word is "whining." And nothing [...] does more damage to Obama's credibility or authority than the sense that a popular president is becoming the whiner-in-chief."

Happy New Year :)
Hard to believe it, but another year has come and gone, and it’s time to make some more new year’s resolutions that we know we’re all gonna break within a couple of weeks. Well, hopefully we won’t break all of them, anyway. If you’re like me, you’re gonna lay low and spend a [...]
New Year’s Eve open thread
I’m off today, and have some errand running to do. Will be back later this afternoon/early evening (yes, I’ll be spending a quiet New Year’s Eve evening at home).
Vicki Iseman sues the NYT
The fit is hitting the shan:
RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — A Washington lobbyist sued The New York Times for $27 million Tuesday over an article that she says gave the false impression she had an affair with Sen. John McCain in 1999.
The newspaper stood by the story.
Vicki L. Iseman filed the defamation suit in U.S. District [...]
Gotta love liberal “social engineering”
The AP reports that tensions are rising in the SF Bay area over low income renters that some say are disturbing the peace and creating a general nuisance out of themselves (h/t: ST reader Cump):
ANTIOCH, Calif. (AP) – As more and more black renters began moving into this mostly white San Francisco Bay Area suburb [...]
As expected, Rep. Rush plays the race card
Here we go:
Taking to the podium at the end of a bizarre, shambolic press conference in which Governor Rod Blagojevich sought to appoint Roland Burris to the US Senate, Congressman Bobby Rush dared white Democratic senators to block a black man from joining their ranks.
He urged people “not to hang or lynch the appointee as [...]
Arrogance personified
Despite the heap of legal troubles he’s in, Governor Blago today announced his pick for Obama’s Senate seat (and no, it isn’t Senate Candidate #5):
In defiance of U.S. senators who said they would not seat his pick, Gov. Rod Blagojevich today said he would go ahead and select former Illinois Attorney General Roland Burris to [...]

Cindy McKinney’s Hamas bailout plan fails
The Israeli Navy, thankfully, took care of business:
A boat carrying international peace activists, including former Georgia congresswoman Cynthia McKinney, and medical supplies to the embattled Gaza Strip sailed back into a Lebanese port on Tuesday after being turned back and damaged by the Israeli navy, organizers of the trip said.
The crowds on the docks in [...]
The “Barack the Magic Negro” controversy
The blogosphere and the punditocracy both have erupted with commentary in light of the controversy over reports that Chip Saltsman, who has thrown his hat into the ring to become the new RNC Chair, sent a parody CD to RNC members before the Christmas holiday that included conservative satirist Paul Shanklin’s “Barack the Magic Negro.” [...]
Juvenile, revealing behavior continues after “shoe-throwing incident”
Via the Christian Science Monitor: “Shoes flung at Bush flying from shelves” – ba da da da da (to the tune of the McDonald’s theme song) and guess who’s “loving it”?
As I’ve written before, let’s imagine again the howls of outrage we’d have seen from the left had a similar incident have happened with Barack [...]
