U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner is warning Congress that the U.S. is on the cusp of hitting the debt ceiling yet again, maybe as soon as Monday.
The Old Media establishment has done a disservice to an American public heartbroken over the murders at a Connecticut grade school by reporting untrue "facts" over and over again and by using emotionally tinged phrases that do not relay fact but instead push an agenda.
Tim Scott has been appointed to fill the South Carolina Senate seat being vacated by the retiring Jim DeMint and immediately the racebaiters jumped in with both feet to attack him. One of the early hatemongers was Amos Brown, a host on a religious radio station in Indianapolis, Indiana. Brown resorted to his Twitter account to claim that African American Tim Scott isn’t really a black man.
As unions again run amuck, this time in Michigan, the Old Media establishment has steadfastly refused to report on the union's violence, not to mention the "violent rhetoric" coming from their advocates. But this is in stark contrast to the Summer of 2011 when the Old Media was hot to condemn the supposed "violent rhetoric" of Republicans such as Sarah Palin, Andrew Breitbart, and talk radio hosts.
Michigan’s Gretchen Whitmer, the State’s Senate Democratic Leader, is now pleading for President Obama to trample on Michigan’s state sovereignty and control the state from Washington DC. This is an odd request for someone that thinks she should be Michigan’s next Governor.
Withchunt: The Chicago Sun-Times once again revels in its partisanship by demanding the public release of the medical records of Senator Mark Kirk while ignoring the records of Representative Jesse Jackson, Jr.
Remember weeks and weeks of reports on how down-in-the-mouth the defeated John Kerry was when he lost the presidency to George Bush? Remember how the Old Media establishment obsessed about how badly Al Gore felt after he lost in 2000? Me either. But we sure keep getting stories about how downtrodden Mitt Romney feels after his epic loss.
Illinois State Senator Donne Trotter, a Chicago Democrat, was arrested at O'Hare airport for having a gun in his baggage. Today he faced the judge in his case after spending the night in lock-up. He claimed he forgot the gun in his luggage and that it is from his "job" as a security guard. But this is a flat out lie. He has no such job.
This week the SEIU sent out an email to its members hoping to drum up some hate against the fast food chain Wendy's. The email not only had one outright lie, it was also a sad example of how stupid unions think their members really are.

In an outrageous attempt to defuse for President Obama the murderous disaster that is his security failures in Benghazi on September 11, the Associated Press deemed the whole debacle merely a “PR disaster” and speculated it could all just be forgotten if Susan Rice were to be successfully nominated as our next Secretary of State.
Obama’s unemployment rate is the worst continuously down trend seen since The Great Depression. Millions of Americans have lost their jobs and, subsequently, lost their homes to foreclosure. One Pennsylvania family, faced with Obama’s destruction, tried to move to another state where they hoped to see a better life but instead of finding opportunity they had their children stolen from them by the state and were turned into criminals.

Sadly, the debut of Director Steven Spielberg’s epic film about our 16th President is being used by many Old Media outlets as propaganda to push the concept that Barack Obama is in the same league or, worse, is somehow just like Abraham Lincoln. On November 15 it was CBS This Morning’s turn to couple one of our most famous presidents to the current resident of the White House.
John Schnatter, CEO of the Papa John’s pizza chain, has announced that now that President Obama has been re-elected and it is obvious that Obamacare is here to stay, he will likely be forced to cut back worker's hours because of the cost of the federal government's take over of our national healthcare.
It's been a bad year for Britain's state owned broadcaster, the BBC. First came revelations that Jimmy Savile, one of the Beeb's most famous and flamboyant past personalities, had spent decades sexually abusing teen girls, but now the broadcast network's new director has been forced to resign over a wholly separate story based on an un-sourced and ultimately false claim that a British Lord had similarly abused children years ago.
