WGMD Radio out of Delaware: Former ABC News political reporter Sam Donaldson was pulled over on Savannah Road by Lewes Police on December 1 for a traffic violation. An officer says that he’d been drinking. Donaldson failed field sobriety tests, and was arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol. Sam Donaldson is a regular guest on ABC News´ "This Week" and made himself famous as a left-wing reporter disguised as an objective reporter who regularly taunted President Reagan throughout the 1980s.

FTA: Most recently, Donaldson caused controversy back in June with his racially divisive rhetoric accusing some on the political right of opposing President Obama and his policies because the president is black.
Controversy among whom? The lefties just sat there and nodded their heads in agreement.

Schadenfreude -German for taking pleasure in the misfortunes of others- is best left to Leftists, who do it spectacularly well in regard to their political adversaries. Conservatism, with its modest expectations of human beings, should always leave some latitude for simple human foibles, which are no respecters of ideology. There are good reasons to be critical of Sam Donaldson. This news report is not, or should not be at the top of the list.

Back in the 1980´s when Ronald Reagan was President, at almost every occasion, Sam Donaldson, then working for ABC News would loudly yell questions at Reagan anytime Reagan was in public. Reagan would always shake his head, put his hand up to his ear, and pretend that he could not understand Donaldson´s question as he walked away.

Mark Sanford’s post-election morning began like this: Any lessons for Anthony Weiner in your victory? “I wouldn’t presume to give any other politician advice,” Sanford told CNN. The social media and pundit consensus after Sanford won his old South Carolina congressional district over Democrat Elizabeth Colbert Busch was that there was no politician who could be more grateful for the outcome than Weiner, the former congressman who resigned amid scandal and who’s eying a comeback of his own.

His voice broke describing his friends, the deceased American service and diplomatic personnel, who lost their lives in that attack. “I would also like to thank the committee for your continued efforts in investigating all the details and all the decisions relating to the attack on our diplomatic facility — specifically the committee’s labors to uncover what happened prior, during, and after the attack matter,” Nordstrom began.

CLEVELAND — In the years after his friend’s daughter vanished while walking home from school, Ariel Castro handed out fliers with the 14-year-old’s photo and performed music at a fundraiser held in her honor. When neighbors gathered for a candlelight vigil just a year ago to remember the girl, Castro was there too, comforting the girl’s mother. Castro, just like everyone else in the tight-knit, mostly Puerto Rican neighborhood, seemed shaken by the 2004 disappearance of Gina DeJesus and another teenager who went missing the year before.

April was a pretty awful month for President Obama, but it´s too early for Republicans to start celebrating his political demise. People keep trying to compress the political calendar, wanting to convince us that time is running out for Obama, even though he´s barely past 100 days in his second term. Yes, Obama´s gun control initiative was a resounding failure. It didn´t pass the Democrat-controlled Senate. California Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein´s assault weapons ban got only 40 votes.

At an investment conference last week, Harvard historian Niall Ferguson created a huge mess for himself. He glibly speculated that maybe because economist John Maynard Keynes was a childless, "effete" homosexual, he embraced a doctrine that favored immediate economic gratification. Keynes´ bon mot "in the long run, we are all dead" takes on new meaning when you realize he didn´t have kids to worry about. Following the usual script, but at a much faster clip, an uproar ensued on Twitter and in various blogs.

Now that Dr. Kermit Gosnell´s Philadelphia murder trial has finally gone to the jury, we should take a moment to debunk, once and for all, the delusional right-wing claim that "the liberal media" supposedly refused to cover the story because they supposedly didn´t want to publicize the dark side of abortion. The right´s worst delusion is its belief that Gosnell — charged with four counts of killing fetuses during illegal late-term procedures — will be a boon to the national anti-abortion movement.

LATE last month Amanda Filipacchi, an American writer, discovered that the editors of Wikipedia, a crowdsourced online encyclopaedia, were re-categorising female American authors from "American Novelists" to to "American Women Novelists". No corresponding "American Men Novelists" subject area existed at that time. The process seemingly happened sub rosa, through the actions of several editors. After she published an article in the New York Times pointing this out, Ms Filipacchi found that her own Wikipedia entry was edited numerous times for spurious and sometimes vindictive reasons. "Wikipedia is created and edited by its users," she observed.

A few days before the presidential election last November, Roger Ailes, the chief executive of Fox News, ordered that Geraldo Rivera’s microphone be cut off after Mr. Rivera angrily defended the Obama administration against charges levied by others on Fox. So says a forthcoming book about the 2012 campaign by Jonathan Alter, a columnist for Bloomberg View and a contributor to MSNBC, a Fox competitor. The book, “The Center Holds: Obama and His Enemies” (Simon & Schuster, $30), which is set to come out June 4, includes a chapter about Fox’s influence on the campaign.

Is the American body politic suffering from an autoimmune disease? The “hygiene hypothesis” is the scientific theory that the rise in asthma and other autoimmune maladies stems from the fact that babies are born into environments that are too clean. Our immune systems need to be properly educated by being exposed early to germs, dirt, whatever. When you consider that for most of human evolutionary history, we were born under shady trees or, if we were lucky, in caves or huts, you can understand how unnatural Lysol-soaked hospitals and microbially baby-proofed

PRESIDENT OBAMA is not Saul Alinsky or Richard Nixon—aware of how one gets power and uses it, or self-aware when he loses it or faces the greater power of others. He is more Louis XVI, believing power is his birthright. It just happens. It isn’t supposed to be taken away. It never fades. He plays with it, then tosses it aside like a child fondling a pearl, ignorant of its value. When he drops or loses the pearl, he pouts and demands his toy back.

When it first became clear that the CIA’s Benghazi talking points had been altered, many of us viewed the White House as the prime suspect. After all, it served President Obama’s political purposes to claim, at the height of a political campaign in which he was taking credit for the fall of al Qaeda, that the death of a U.S. ambassador was down to spontaneous outrage over a video, rather than pre-planned terrorism. It turns out, however, that the State Department was the prime culprit. It was State that pushed back hard against the original talking points.

Republican lawmakers, who have spent months seeking to tie President Obama to last year’s deadly attack on the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi, are increasingly focusing their probe on a new target: former secretary of state Hillary Rodham Clinton. The GOP-led investigation of the Sept. 11, 2012, assaults that killed U.S. Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens and three others now centers heavily on the State Department and whether officials there deliberately misled the public about the nature of the assault. Three State Department officials are scheduled to testify before a House committee on Wednesday about the Benghazi attack and its aftermath.

Former Gov. Mark Sanford completed the trail to political redemption Tuesday with a win over Democrat Elizabeth Colbert Busch to reclaim his old seat in Congress. Sanford defeated Colbert Busch 54 percent to 45 percent, according to full unofficial results. Turnout was heavier than expected, with about 32 percent of the district’s 455,702 registered voters casting ballots. Sanford, who has never lost an election, returns to the 1st District seat he held for three terms from 1995-2001. It’s a remarkable comeback for a man many pundits had written off after his highly publicized affair with an Argentine

There was tragic incompetence, plainly, in the Obama administration’s handling of the Benghazi attacks, and even possibly some political calculation. It is a record that may well come to haunt Hillary Clinton, the first Secretary of State to lose an ambassador in the field in more than three decades, if she runs for president in 2016. But the obvious Republican effort to turn this inquiry into the Democratic (Obama) version of the Iraq intelligence scandal that has tarred the GOP since the George W.
