| For the last several weeks, as you are no doubt aware, the Washington Free Beacon and other news outlets—most of them conservative—have been investigating secretary of defense nominee Chuck Hagel’s positions, finances, associations, career history, and utterances. Which seems to us to be precisely what you would expect an intrepid and creative and entrepreneurial press to do when the president of the United States nominates a controversial former senator to one of the most important cabinet posts in the land. Apparently, though, and without our knowing it, you and I have passed through an inter-dimensional portal and have entered

Good article. Glad they stood-up to them and held their ground.
Looks like someone finally told the ADC the law and the need to comply.
The liberal/progressive party is trying hard to convince people they are the majority opinion in this country when they aren´t. However, they are working hard to destroy anyone who has a contrary opinion, and use the term racist or bigot.
It´s a verbal form of tyranny if you think about it.

I remember so well when growing up in the 50"s the Soviet Union´s newspaper -- Pravda -- and how the U.S. A. made fun of their being OWNED by the government and the "stories" they would cover...
Funny -- how the MSM has come full circle and now that they are OWNED by the government -- how their stories are laughable....

Since Watergate, the Journalism profession has drawn want-a-be revolutionaries who are wary about violence. (Those who couldn´t write but did possess that rare talent of being able to beg other people for money, became politicians.) Their mission is always to bring down "the man". However, they perceive and revere Barrack Obama to still be a dissenter and not the Head of State. He has convinced them that he somehow levitates above, and in judgement of, the government. To their shame, they allow the rest of the administration to carry on with their high crimes and misdemeanors. While many journalists have fought and died to keep the press free and honest, this current crop is happily providing cover for tyrants.

While I suppose the investigative reporting of the Free Bacon may be a good thing, I wasn´t able to tell from the article. It is impressively poorly written.
Did they ever manage to get a copy of the speech? I read halfway through the article, but didn´t find out.
I´m not a great fan of the left-wing media disguising an editorial as hard news. I don´t much care for it from the right-wing media, either.

The corruption of the US media was a gradual affair. McCarthy hearings, VietNam, Fake but Accurate being mile posts along the way. But if a single event is to be isolated as a watershed, it is Walter Kronkite, putting on a helmet and climbing on to the balcony of the Belvedere Hotel in Saigon after the Tet offensive and declaring that the war is lost. Something (we now realize)he knew to be patently false.

I am grateful for investigative reporting and admire the patience of the reporters. Like #8, I did wonder what the outcome was. Apparently the organization reviewed the tape and said that there was nothing of substance there. They have since been told they must comply and will grudgingly send the tape. Sometime in the next week, we´ll indeed learn what was there.

I have believed for a long time that the only way back for the right is to concentrate all effort on taking down the corrupt media. That means every conservative organization, news outlets, Tea Party, everyone. Push the issue of the corrupt leftwing media. If we don´t do this we are all done. They are getting more brazen each day. There has to be a way to stop this.

Interesting article, but I find one of Continetti´s assertions a little baffling: I.e., he says that the American Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee´s IRS Form 990 isn´t available online.
I happen to do some charity watchdog work, so am familiar with looking up Form 990s online, using a website called the Foundation Center.
This is URL goes to the page that lists 990s for both the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee, and that organizations´s "research" arm: http://990finder.foundationcenter.org/990results.aspx?990_type=&fn=american+arab+anti&st=&zp=&ei=&fy=&action=Find
The most recent Form 990s for these two "American-Arab Anti-Discrimination" groups -that were available on the Foundation Center´s website- were their filings for the year 2010.

This is what happens when real journalists meet the stenographers and scrivners that comprise the Washington puppy dogs that protect the liberal power structure. Denigration, cries of "racism", attributions of "mean-spirited" action. There are house organs these left-wingers go to and Politico and Buzzfeed are the front lines, followed by the WaPo then NYT (if they haven´t snuffed out the true journalists by then). Don´t worry-Andrew Breitbart lives!

Don´t miss the point ...
While Republican Party leaders and Behind The Scenes Movers/Shakers diddled Wall Street, the gold course, flew around the world making deals and ignoring us ... they ALLOWED the Left to swarm over the battlefield uncontested.
That´s the lesson here. Poor Matthew is barking into a typhoon.
The Left has every media outlet, all the Politicians and every hate group on their side because the Left knows how to siphon $$$ off us and redistribute the money.
IT matters little if Menendez, Rice and Hagel get sacked. The Left has Replacement Clones already lined up, ten deep. Knock down as many as you want, they´ll keep coming.
BECAUSE the Republican Hierarchy failed us.

Apparently the underlying cause of much of Hagel´s problems is that he is exceptionally stupid, even for a Democrat Senator. Add in his funding by anti-Israel forces and apparent anti-semitic world view and you have quite a piece of work.

The brazen, combative attitudes of all of these left-wing hyphenated American groups can all trace their origin to the America-hating boob in the White House. The treatment shown these reporters is exactly how the One treats real Americans. They are financed by the American taxpayer, they owe us nothing and they take every opportunity to insult, belittle, flaunt the law and refuse us common courtesy. As #1 says, the payback for all of this assault of the American way will be terrible once we have reached the limit. In Vietnam, it was called the 100 year revenge. The Mafia calls it "a dish served cold." Either way, the tide will turn and there will be a lot of unhappy people within these borders when America finally strikes back.

Hagel may or may not be exceptionally stupid, but the fact is that he was a GOP senator.
As for the press, all you have to remember is that Journo School is about one cut above the College of Education on most college campuses. And Ed school is where the students that can´t hack it in arts & sciences wind up. In other words primo raw material for a cadre of useful idiots, in both instances.

You may be forgiven if you missed it during last week’s tsunami of scandals, but President Obama finally let slip that he is a socialist. Buried in the 17th paragraph of one of those mewling New York Times pieces on the woes of Obama — can we start calling him Woe-bama yet? — appeared these two words: “going Bulworth.” Obama himself, the Times explained, has been “longingly” telling his inner circle that what he’d really like to do is what Sen.

Appearing on CBS’ Face the Nation, White House senior adviser Dan Pfeiffer said that it was “largely irrelevant” who edited the talking points the Obama administration trotted out in the aftermath of the terrorist attack in Benghazi on September 11, 2012. Host Bob Schieffer asked, “That was just a PR plan, to send out somebody who didn’t know anything about what had happened. Why did you do that? Why didn’t the Secretary of State come and tell us what they knew, and if they knew nothing, say ‘We don’t know yet?’ …. Why are you here today?

The Homeland Security Department has granted legal status to 99.2 percent of all illegal immigrants who have applied under President Obama’s new non-deportation policy for young adults, according to the latest numbers released Friday. That’s a slight drop from the 99.5 percent approval rate reported last month. The policy, known as Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, grants legal status to most illegal immigrants under the age of 31 who came to the U.S. before age 16 — usually brought by their parents. They are allowed to remain in the U.S. without fear of deportation, and are given work

What did President Obama do on the evening of 9/11/12 when our men were under attack in Benghazi? The invaluable Andrew McCarthy reminds us that Obama and Secretary Clinton had a 10:00 p.m. phone call of which many (including, I think, Chris Wallace) have lost sight. This morning when Wallace asked Obama aide Dan Pfeiffer what Obama was up to that evening, Pfeiffer declared the line of inquiry “offensive.” Translation: Obama and his minions would prefer to “move on” and are warning the likes of FNC off:(Snip for video)The Weekly Standard’s Daniel Halper has posted the rush transcript

WASHINGTON - There were new questions Saturday night concerning if anyone in the White House was aware of the IRS´ targeting of conservative groups. Inspector General Russell George said he informed a deputy at the Treasury Department in June of 2012 about the probe into the IRS. The Treasury Department confirmed the timeline but said they did not know the details of the investigation until last week.(Snip)Marcus Owens ran the tax-exempt division at the IRS for 10 years. He said it isn´t difficult to figure out who´s doing what at the agency.

In the wake of one of the worst abuses of government power in recent history, many are rushing to frame the Internal Revenue Service scandal as simply an attack on conservative activists. That view risks creating a partisan political football and misses a fundamentally scarier abuse that exceeds the scandals of Watergate or any other prior government abuse. The IRS has admitted that since May 2010 it targeted grassroots-conservative organizations that had applied for tax-exempt status, unfairly subjecting them to rigorous scrutiny due to their political leanings. Such groups were told they were required to comply with IRS requests,

Treasury Secretary Jack Lew on Friday urged congressional leaders to raise the debt limit and insisted that the White House is not going to negotiate over the increase because lawmakers have "no choice." "We will not negotiate over the debt limit," Lew wrote. "The creditworthiness of the United States is non-negotiable. The question of whether the country must pay obligations it has already incurred is not open to debate." Lew said that while President Obama is willing to discuss plans to reduce the nation´s deficit with Congress, those talks must be kept separate from any effort to raise the nation´s debt cap.

It began in earnest last Friday. A flash mob of latte drinking, tofu eating media that has done its best to quell, rather than fan the flames of truth, turned on one of their own. Jay Carney lay bludgeoned at the base of the podium, a victim of friendly fire. Ironically, the attack was reminiscent of the one in Benghazi he has repeatedly denied the Administration he represents bears any responsibility for. “Changed twelve times?!” came the cries. And with good reason. We were misled; no, lied to.

The Internal Revenue Service´s watchdog told top Treasury officials around June 2012 he was investigating allegations the tax agency had targeted conservative groups, for the first time indicating that Obama administration officials were aware of the explosive matter in the midst of the president´s re-election campaign. The disclosure to the Treasury general counsel and the deputy secretary was a cursory one, according to J. Russell George, the Treasury inspector general for tax administration. He said he didn´t reveal conclusions of the probe, which was in its early stages, and his disclosure came as part
