| President Obama spoke to the UN Tuesday, but what he had to say depended on the media outlet reporting it. It was about “optics” according to MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow; “free speech” said CBS’s Nancy Cordes and Iran, explained NBC’s Chuck Todd. Not that they’re wrong. It was a 4,000-word speech. Obama covered a lot of ground. But the ground the major media covered conveniently left out was the most provocative line of the entire speech. The president told the UN that the “future must not belong” to a series of people including “corrupt” leaders and those who “bully women.”

I wish there was something we could do about the totally corrupt media and the malpractice they commit every single day. It is so very distressing.

I've studied the HISTORY of Islam in great detail. Read the Hadith concerning Muhammad. Islam has waged war against Animists, Hindus, Jews, and Christians to promulgate Islam around North Africa, Middle East and Central Asia. Muhammad was an intolerant evil and hateful fellow. In America we have the Right of Free Speech, and that miscreant in the White House CANNOT change that without a real fight. Obama may appreciate Islam - So What?? I see a savage religion seeking to destroy all others into submission to Pan Islam.

The whole point about "not slandering the Prophet" is to SHUT DOWN free speech in this country.
Highly inconvenient for most of the rest of the world, and particularly Islam. They cannot tolerate anything like "free speech", as it applies to ANY criticism of their supposed "prophet", Muhammed Ali, a sun-crazed old hermit who probably was in the advanced stages of schizophrenic paranoia. And all this shows in the writings attributed to him in the form of the rather unholy Koran, which is about the same level as the sanitized works of Marquis de Sade.

0bama betrayed the people of the US again before the UN and tried to sell out our freedom of expression. What he said in his speech contradicted itself at different points and the purpose was so that the Islamic nations of the world could cite only those parts which support them.

The truth of "the prophet" is far worse than any slander.
He was a homicidal maniac. A pedophile. A narcissistic psychopath. A hypocrite. A disgusting and despicable person.
Who needs to slander?

I’m not sure how widely it was known that Jonathan Winters, whom Robin Williams thought the best comic of his generation, was a conservative. In any case, I sometimes used to show students in my classes on the American Founding the early scene from “It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad World” where the whole gang tries to deliberate about how to divide the loot fairly when they finally got to the site where the loot was hidden, and how it could illustrate . . . the “great compromise” of the constitutional convention of 1787 in Philadelphia.

The Republican National Committee has reaffirmed its opposition to gay marriage with a slate of resolutions passed unanimously at its spring meeting. Several resolutions re-establishing the party´s official position were adopted without discussion on Friday. One resolution states the party´s belief that "the institution of marriage is the solid foundation upon which our society is built and in which children thrive; it is based on the relationship that only a man and a woman can form." The RNC also expresses its “support for marriage as the union of one man and one woman,

During an appearance on MSNBC´s Morning Joe, Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) said expanded background checks are "not enough," and private gun sales cannot continue because they allow terrorists to buy guns in the United States. "Can a terrorist currently buy a gun in this country? Yes. Can a felon? Yes. You go to a gun show and virtually no questions are asked," Feinstein claimed. Joe Scarborough chimed in later in the segment to echo Feinstein´s claim, asserting, "So now we have al Qaeda terrorists saying, ´Kill Americans, it´s easy, just go to gun shows, get an assault weapon.´"

Sen. Jay Rockefeller (D-WV), one of the architects of the Affordable Care Act, said on Tuesday that the healthcare law, set to go into full effect in less than eight months, is “probably the most complex piece of legislation ever passed by the United States Congress” and “is just beyond comprehension.” Rockefeller said he is concerned that early missteps with implementing the healthcare overhaul may cascade into confusion and chaos. The law, said Rockefeller, is “so complicated and if it isn’t done right the first time, it will just simply get worse.” Rockefeller’s consternation echoes comments made earlier this

For the first time since women became the largest voting block, Democratic women are organizing to elect one of their own to the White House in 2016. The unstated goal: Putting Hillary Clinton in the Oval Office. The influential women´s political group Emily´s List next week plans to announce their new national campaign. It comes on the heels of President Obama´s reelection, driven by women who gave him 58 percent of their support. In the election, 52 percent of the voters were women. "We are ready," said Emily´s List President Stephanie Schriock in a post election review,

In case you missed Dana Perino making her hip hop debut on The Five yesterday, the Fox News show decided to replay the moment again on today’s show. Perino was surprised not only by how much attention her performance got online, but also by the tone of that attention. As Perino revealed to her co-hosts, some on “the left” have been calling her “racist.” Perino didn’t point to any specific examples, except for one tweet from someone named Richard Robbins who put forward her rapped response to Jay-Z as an example of the GOP’s “laughable minority outreach.”

We’re glad that U.S. Sen. Chris Murphy and Gov. Dannel Malloy are talking in detail about the victims of Sandy Hook as part of a push for federal gun control legislation. Members of Congress need to know that Dylan Hockley “loved jumping on trampolines and watching movies” and that he “died in his teacher’s arms.” They should meet Benjamin Wheeler’s parents and know what they’ve lost. What Murphy and Malloy are doing is not politicizing a tragedy. It’s an important part of the discussion around restricting the kind of mass murder weaponry used to kill 20 children

Pressure is growing on House leaders to create a special committee to probe the Sept. 11, 2012 terror attack and murders of U.S. officials at the Behghazi, Libya consulate, with 70 Republican members and over 700 former special operations officers demanding an investigation. "For the good of the country, we ought to find out what happened," said Virginia Rep. Frank Wolf, who is pushing legislation to create the special committee. Wolf, going to bat for the diplomats targeted in the surprised attack, including the late Ambassador Christopher Stevens, said he is concerned that the administration is hiding something.

WASHINGTON — The White House says the mother of a Newtown shooting victim will deliver the weekly presidential radio and Internet address. President Barack Obama typically gives the talk, focusing on a topic that´s in the news or a policy the White House is pushing. This week, Obama has asked Francine Wheeler to deliver the address instead. Wheeler and her husband, David, lost their 6-year-old son Ben in the December schoolhouse shooting in Newtown, Conn. White House spokesman Jay Carney says Obama believes the voices of Newtown families have been critical to progress on gun control.

The tweet was quickly deleted, but Politiwoops scooped it up and saved the loving tweet for posterity. “Great night,” he told Lauper. “Couldn’t believe how hot u were,” the tweet continued, ending with a reference to the Otis Redding song Lauper performed during the concert: “Try A Little Tenderness.”

In 1965, disgusted by what he viewed as confiscatory taxation by the British authorities -- a supertax instituted by the Labor government was taking 95 percent of top earners´ income -- George Harrison wrote a bitter song from the perspective of a maniacal tax collector: If you drive a car, I´ll tax the street, If you try to sit, I´ll tax your seat. If you get too cold I´ll tax the heat, If you take a walk, I´ll tax your feet. But even Harrison´s "Taxman" never conceived of a levy on the weather, something currently being instituted in Maryland.

But Hvistendahl soon learned the downside to uncovering what many believe to be a shocking trend in human rights offenses: people will want to do something about it.

Only one of my six children has left New York for economic reasons but the strain of living in this expensive nanny state is weighing heavy on my other five and their families. As a native New Yorker, I´ve seen its middle class population decline over the years due to its neglect of blue collar families which is ironic since this is a Democrat city. With the recent arrests of several local politicians for corruption perhaps New Yorkers will pay more attention to those they put in office. Given their past indifference in local elections this is highly unlikely.

Just by using his mind, he took away the automobiles, the electricity, the machines -- because they displeased him -- and he moved an entire community back into the dark ages -- just by using his mind. . . . and the people there have to smile.

Is Anthony Weiner completely delusional? Or is he out of his flipping, sex-crazed gourd? Whatever big-busted fantasies crawl around the ex-congressman’s delirious noggin, la Weiner made his next goal as clear as the skin of the wholesome college students he craved: He relishes being Mayor Weiner. Please, shut up this clown. These days, the genitally obsessed Weiner has nothing much to do, except sit in his lavish Manhattan apartment and — the inhumanity! — change the poopy diapers of his 16-month-old son, Jordan. Worse, Weiner is living under a kind of house arrest, sentenced to take extreme grief

Seven hundred Military Special Operations professionals. And one insistent and very angry Mom. This is becoming a deadly combination for the political game players in the Obama Administration. Sean Smith, the young State Department computer wizard who was brutally murdered that September night in Benghazi, was Pat Smith’s only child. Let’s say that again. Sean Smith was Mrs. Smith’s only child. To listen to her recent radio interview with another Sean… Sean Hannity… is to have the heart break.

LOS ANGELES — Jonathan Winters, the cherub-faced comedian whose breakneck improvisations and misfit characters inspired the likes of Robin Williams and Jim Carrey, has died. He was 87. The Ohio native died Thursday evening at his Montecito, Calif., home of natural causes, said Joe Petro III, a longtime family friend. Petro said Winters died of natural causes and was surrounded by family and friends. Winters was a pioneer of improvisational standup comedy, with an exceptional gift for mimicry, a grab bag of eccentric personalities and a bottomless reservoir of creative energy.

I’ve been writing about media coverage of abortion for many years. And so have many others. If you haven’t read David Shaw’s “Abortion Bias Seeps Into The News,” published in the Los Angeles Times back in 1990, you should. That report also explains why we cover the topic here at GetReligion.But the thing is that I’m getting kind of sick of pointing out egregious bias only to see things not just remain bad but get worse. Just think, in the last year, we saw the media drop any pretense of objectivity and bully the Susan G. Komen Foundation
