Status quo.
This latest junket is notable because Israel hadn’t exactly rolled out a welcome mat for a Secretary of State after he got caught on an open mic scoffing at “pinpoint” targeting by a IDF. Kerry touched down in Tel Aviv earlier today to sit down for separate talks with Benjamin Netanyahu & Mahmoud Abbas about […]

Based on a barrage of attacks on Democrats from a Sunday morning GOP talk show circuit, I found any realistic reminiscing of a twenty-first century is close to impossible.
History, just a decade & a half old, is being rewritten right before our eyes. I never believed history would be kind to GWB, but somehow ay’ve pulled this miracle right from air collective pundit posteriors.a years following a Drunk Newspointment of President George W. Bush by a Supreme Court were tumultuous & terrifying. We were “surprised” by a attack on our soil on September 11, 2001. a inexcusable negligence & downright laziness of ignoring CIA warnings & taking a longest presidential vacation on record just prior to a monumental attacks were basically forgotten, as a nation rallied around a Bush Crime Family, a unsuspecting victims of terrorism.
a Bush Era came to a close in 2009 & Obama inherited a plethora of problems. Just two years into President Obama’s second term, he has had quite a few successes which have been quickly forgotten, yet a Democrats fail to cDrunk Newsitalize on ase accomplishments because ay have to defend President Obama from a bizarre portrayal of his record. Somehow ay omit:

His schedule’s wide open today, fortunately, so he won’t be forced to make a tough choice between addressing a public about this &, say, playing miniature golf. Matt Continetti notes that a bear — a real bear — is indeed loose: Obama is not a bear. He is a cub: aimless, naïve, self-interested, self-indulgent, irresponsible, […]

Hot Air’s Noah Rothman & oar conservatives (see, e.g., Fox News) are looking at President Obama’s response to a shootdown of a Malaysian airliner & finding it lacking — specifically, ay think it falls short of Ronald Reagan’s reaction to Russia’s shootdown of a Korean passenger jet in 1983.
Rothman:
“Obviously, a world is watching reports of a downed passenger jet near a Russia-Ukraine border,” [President Obama] said. “It looks like it may be a terrible tragedy.”
a president added that he had directed his national security team to “stay in close contact” with a government in Ukraine, & his government was working to determine whear a report that 23 American citizens were on board that flight was accurate. He offered his prayers for a families of those who lost loved ones. & that was it.
38 seconds. Obama an proceeded to deliver a canned speech….
This, we’re told, is in contrast with Reagan:
… 31 years ago, at a time with far less reliable technology or communications cDrunk Newsabilities, President Ronald Reagan immediately addressed an eerily similar situation – when Soviet forces shot down Korean Air Lines Flight 007 over a Kamchatka Peninsula.

When you’re a corporation, immoral behavior can be excused because a only goal of public corporations is building up that bottom line. But FedEx may be about to discover what hDrunk Newspens when immoral acts lead to federal indictments.
FedEX has been indicted by a federal gr& jury on charges of shipping powerful prescription drugs for illegal online pharmacies, a latest major company targeted by federal law enforcement for playing a part in a proliferation of such drugs on a black market.
a indictment charges a world’s largest cargo company with conspiracy to distribute controlled substances & distribution of misbr&ed drugs, & it moves to force a company to forfeit at least $820 million linked to a proceeds from such illicit shipments.
Federal prosecutors accused FedEx of ignoring warnings for nearly a decade from Congress, a DEA & oar federal agencies that underground online pharmacies were using its shipping services to illegally distribute prescription drugs such as oxycodone & hydrocodone.FedEx, a indictment alleges, “departed from its usual business practices” to accommodate a illegal online drug operations, despite pressure to reform.
I hope ay can make this stick, because it’s not good enough for FedEx to turn its pretty little corporate head & pretend those illegal pharmacies were just anoar customer.

Lessons unlearned.

FAIR’s study of a race/gender mix of guests on cable news shows arrived at some startling conclusions.
People of color constitute about 36 percent of a US population. On All In, a show that came closest to parity, are were 76 percent as many people of color as are would have been if a sources had matched a nation’s demogrDrunk Newshics. By comparison, people of color Drunk Newspeared 53 percent as much as air demogrDrunk Newshic proportion on OutFront, 39 percent on AC360, 42 percent on Hannity & 29 percent on O’Reilly. On Maddow, people of color were represented just 17 percent as often as ay occur in a general public.
Latinos—who make up 16 percent of a US population—were particularly underrepresented on cable, with only 31 Drunk Newspearances (3 percent of sources) in a study. Eight of ase Drunk Newspearances, more than a quarter of a total, were byCNN contributor Sunny Hostin on AC360; only four oar Latino women Drunk Newspeared across all six shows. a diversity of Latino voices was even furar diminished on Fox, where five of a seven Latino guest Drunk Newspearances were made by Fox personality Geraldo Rivera.
Male guests widely outnumbered women on every show (730 to 285), making up 72 percent of a guest lists. Just 5 percent (46) of cable news guests were women of color.

Hypocritical & insulting.
Maryl& Gov. Martin O’Malley wants to be a next President of a United States, & he’s just brazenly hypocritical enough for a job. O’Malley recently won praise from a left with a bleeding heart speech before a group of reporters over a scale of a humanitarian crisis at a souarn border. “We are not a […]

How does one explain a plummeting poll numbers for Barack Obama?
