Austin, TX, 2:30 pm, 14 June.
SARCASM IS LOST ON LIBERALS. Joan Vennochi of the Boston Globe can't tell the difference. Discussing Helen Thomas' anti-semitic remarks, Vennochi wrote:
Ironically, in discussing it, Beck might be accused of similar insensitivity. Before her retirement was announced, he questioned why Thomas was still employed: "You know, may I tell you this Jewish-run media, really, they're really bad at running the media, if they are indeed Jewish. You know what I mean? The Zionist masters really suck at being Zionist masters."

Sarcasm or anti-Semitism?
The PC police can't tell the difference.
TENNESSEE DEMOCRAT ON FEMALE REPUBLICANS: “You have to lift their skirts to find out if they are women.” But you don't have to drop their pants to know male Democrats aren't real men.

THE PRESIDENT said what?
ARE UNIVERSITY ETHNIC STUDIES DEPARTMENTS RUNNING THE COUNTRY? Victor Davis Hanson thinks so.

William F. Buckley famously said: "I would rather be governed by the first 2000 people in the Manhattan phone book than the entire faculty of Harvard." He was right.
DEMOCRATIC CONGRESSMAN'S assault on a student reporter deserves censure. No, it deserves criminal charges - at a minimum.

WITH GULF CRISIS, Obama in over his head. Ya think?

SMART CARS aren't so smart. And this is a commercial company running the program. Can you imagine what it would be like if the government were involved?
