October 26th, 2012 11:12 PM

Romney Won the Last Debate? On MSNBC, They Can't Believe Anyone Could

October 24th, 2012 5:41 PM
On Tuesday's edition of MSNBC's The Ed Show, all but official Obama campaign surrogates Ed Schultz and Richard Wolffe discussed the third and final presidential debate. Both declared the president a clear winner and insulted the intelligence of anyone who would disagree. Failing to recognize the irony of what they were doing for Obama, Schultz criticized the Romney campaign for declaring…

The Daily Kos Loves Soledad O'Brien: 'The Best Thing to Happen to Jour

October 23rd, 2012 5:01 PM
Guess who loves CNN's Soledad O'Brien? The liberals at the Daily Kos! They think she's "the best thing to happen to journalism" and have suggested starting a petition for her to supplant David Gregory as host of NBC's Meet the Press. "Sure, O'Brien does criticize the Tea Party and others in the GOP heavily but that doesn't necessarily make her a partisan. I mean, she's a frickin' journalist…

Unhinged: 'Hating Breitbart' So Much to the Point of Disrupting a Movi

October 21st, 2012 4:09 PM
Gateway Pundit blog and Michelle Malkin's Twitchy site both reported on Saturday how Ryan Clayton, a far left contributor to DailyKos and Huffington Post, was escorted out a Friday night showing of the documentary, Hating Breitbart, in Arlington, Virginia, for his outbursts during the opening minutes of the film. Clayton actually makes an appearance in the movie, where he shouted bogus…

Daily Kos Week in Review: White After Labor Day

October 13th, 2012 6:23 AM
There are plenty of reasonable explanations for why Republicans have a hard time winning over black voters. Leave it to a Kossack to offer an unreasonable explanation: that today's GOP "looks and acts like a white supremacist lynch mob." That blogger also likens Ann Coulter to a rabid weasel and presents her as one of the leading apologists for this violently racist party. As usual, each…

Daily Kos Week in Review: Boxing Day

October 6th, 2012 6:38 AM
This past week's presidential debate put at least two Kossacks in mind of throwing punches and caused another to reflect upon which group Republicans hate more: women or those who pay no income taxes. And why do leftists hate all the liberal debate moderators, like first-timer Candy Crowley of CNN? As usual, each headline is preceded by the blogger's name or pseudonym.

Daily Kos Sneers at the Supply-side Easter Bunny

September 29th, 2012 11:18 AM
Mark Sumner at the Daily Kos demands that reporters point out that supply-side economics is a complete fantasy. "Any politician who promises to right the economy through cutting taxes on the wealthy might as well invoke the Easter Bunny, and any reporter who fails to point this out is failing the public." Conservatives believe in a supply-side Sasquatch? "There is a difference between…

Daily Kos Week in Review: Going Medieval

September 21st, 2012 11:03 PM
Kossacks notice things the rest of us don't, or maybe they just imagine things that aren't there. This past week, one picked up on the supposedly racist subtext of Mitt Romney's 47-percent comments, while another smelled a "fetid odor of fascism coming from Lord Romney's castle" (and also announced that he's "ready to compare Romney to Hitler"). As usual, each headline is preceded by the…

Daily Kos Week in Review: Fantasies and Hallucinations

September 15th, 2012 6:50 AM

Daily Kos Week in Review: Still Crazy After All These Years

September 8th, 2012 6:46 AM
Several Kossacks spent part of their Labor Day weekend or the week of the Democratic convention pondering the allegedly poor mental health of Republicans. One dared to assert that a specific event -- Bill Clinton's 1992 defeat of George H. W. Bush -- made GOPers lose their minds. As usual, each headline is preceded by the blogger's name or pseudonym.  

Daily Kos on Uppers: Just Hours From Gallup Finding '20 Point Democrat

September 6th, 2012 2:27 PM
The left-wing hysteria over how well the Democratic Convention is going has completely overtaken the senses of bloggers scribbling at the Daily Kos. In his regular “Cheers and Jeers” blog, the gay activist and “booger of change” known as Bill in Portland, Maine can already see a massive polling bounce approaching: CHEERS to Night 3 This is it, kids," he wrote. "The final night before Gallup…

Daily Kos Week in Review: Paul Ryan, the New Nixon

September 3rd, 2012 8:47 AM

August 26th, 2012 2:19 PM
Todd Akin may not know much about biology, but this week one Kossack sounded awfully uninformed herself on abortion and related issues. Another claimed that one of the major parties (hint: not the Democrats) is, in effect, pro-rape. As usual, each headline is preceded by the blogger's name or pseudonym.
