Why the MSM silence?


The only logical conclusion is they support our enemies.
Captain's Quarters: "Captured AQ Documents: 'Every Year Is Worse Than The Previous Year'
CENTCOM announced today that they had captured al-Qaeda correspondence in Iraq that discusses the state of the insurgency, especially around Baghdad but also around the entire country. Far from optimistic, the documents captured in an April 16th raid reveal frustration and desperation, as the terrorists acknowledge the superior position of American and free Iraqi forces and their ability to quickly adapt to new tactics.

Why does "liberal" always equal "sophistry"?



Always!
Ace of Spades HQ: "Background: Ray McGovern, identified only as a 'former CIA official' by the MSM, has some 'interesting theories,' as it turns out. He claims, as Islamist nutbags do, that an Israeli company had prior warning of 9/11 and that's why Jews didn't show up for work that day, as lunatic poet Amiri Baraka claims. (PS, they did show up for work, idiot.)
The MSM doesn't report that, ever."

Now the NYT tells us....


Federal Recipe for Gasoline Helped Drive Up the Price - New York Times: "Nine months after Congress passed major energy legislation, one provision affecting gasoline formulas is helping to drive the price of gas up much faster than the rising price of crude oil.
And because the new gasoline recipe contains less energy, mileage per gallon is declining.

Tax cuts = booming economy = soaring tax receipts!



Kudlow's Money Politic$: Economic Boom Continues: "According to Action Economics, daily data from the U.S. Treasury for April show that the booming economy produced soaring tax receipts that came in 15 percent above a year ago. "
Who'd have guessed?

Justice delivered!


Dad fatally shoots robber; son injured: "A father fatally shot a man who tried to rob his family as they waited in their sport utility vehicle for a summer camp enrollment to open, authorities said. ...The alleged robber approached the driver's window early Saturday, pointed a gun at the father and demanded money, Sheriff's Office spokesman Ken Jefferson said. He then ordered the family of five to unlock one of the SUV's doors, he said."
When will the MSM report the robber was simply trying to raise money for his son's med school tuition......Bush's bad economy, you know...

Maybe Jenny's a golfer?


Sluggish economy may be hurting boating season: "The traditional launch of the boating season in Michigan has seen a decline in boat registrations and fishing licenses in recent years.
The state's economy has been sluggish. And gas prices at some marinas are hovering around $3.50 a gallon, meaning a weekend of fun on the water will cost $200 or more on bigger boats that burn a gallon to cover two miles or less.
'This is not a winning economy for anybody,' Mark Mathes, co-owner of Emerald City Harbor in St. Clair Shores, told The Detroit News for a Saturday story."

Dems promise impeachment


Confident Democrats Lay Out Agenda: "Democratic leaders, increasingly confident they will seize control of the House in November, are laying plans for a legislative blitz during their first week in power that would raise the minimum wage, roll back parts of the Republican prescription drug law, implement homeland security measures and reinstate lapsed budget deficit controls.
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (Calif.) said in an interview last week that a Democratic House would launch a series of investigations of the Bush administration
, beginning with the White House's first-term energy task force and probably including the use of intelligence in the run-up to the invasion of Iraq. Pelosi denied Republican allegations that a Democratic House would move quickly to impeach President Bush. But, she said of the planned investigations, 'You never know where it leads to.'"
Hey, Nancy! I think I've got a hint where it will lead with you leading the House.

Bush's fault!


Investor's Business Daily: The Boom Goes On: "Here's the reality.
Durable goods orders in March rose 18.3% from a year earlier, the second largest gain in over a decade.
Retail sales on a same-store basis grew 6.6% in April, the best gain in over two years.
Home resales continue to rise, defying repeated predictions of a bust. Meanwhile, new-home sales surged 13.8% in March.
Finally, GDP grew 4.8% in the first quarter and has averaged 3.9% since 2003's tax cuts � reversing the abysmal 1.7% average growth that prevailed after the 2000 stock market crash.
They used to call numbers like this a boom.
Yet most people seem to think the economy's in trouble. No doubt, they fear higher oil prices and interest rates and the damage they could do. So do we. But unlike the rest of the media, we don't ignore the good news. And right now, there's plenty of that to go around. You read it here first."

A culture of corruption?


Sanchezes got funds from man who admits bribes: "Rep. Loretta Sanchez and her sister, Rep. Linda Sanchez, have received campaign contributions from a Kentucky technology executive who this week admitted bribing a Louisiana Democrat.
Vernon Jackson on Wednesday pleaded guilty to bribing Rep. William Jefferson, D-La. The Sanchezes were the only two other lawmakers who received donations from Jackson, according to research conducted by the Center for Responsive Politics, a Washington-based campaign finance watchdog group.
Jackson and his wife, Sandra, contributed $12,000 to Loretta Sanchez, D-Garden Grove, in 2001 and 2003. They gave $4,000 to Linda Sanchez, D-Lakewood, in 2001, her first House election.
Loretta is a democrat. Just thought you'd like to know since the article seems to miss it.

Classic Chronicle hit piece


DeVos arrives with polished message: "About a year ago, Dick DeVos failed to impress a Republican Party dinner crowd in Muskegon.
The businessman-turned-politician stumbled through a passionless speech, which began with a 10-minute description of how the 2000 Grant Hill-for-Ben Wallace trade was good for his family owned basketball team, the Orlando Magic. Of course, it was a room full of Detroit Pistons fans with no interest in what was good for the Magic.
Some even wondered why he was bothering to run for governor. "
Gee, I wonder who the wonderer was? Maybe someone workin' for the local newspaper?

Trouble!


Threads2: "Russia and China on Friday opposed key provisions in a U.N. draft resolution that orders Iran to curb its nuclear ambitions, making an agreement unlikely before ministers come to New York next week. Both nations object to the use of Chapter 7 of the U.N. Charter, used in dozens of Security Council resolutions for peacekeeping missions and other legally-binding actions. "

Yeah, right.....


Bono speaks -- but why here?: "But why did Bono accept the Economic Club's invitation this year? Grand Rapids Mayor George Heartwell, who will meet Bono and present him with a key to the city, thinks he knows why.
'I'd certainly like to think that Grand Rapids is distinguishing itself on a national level these days,' Heartwell said. 'And we know Grand Rapids is one of the best kept secrets in the Midwest.'"

Far out dude!


Motown in the mix at Michigan State graduation: " Motown founder Berry Gordy Jr. returned to his home state Friday with a simple message for Michigan State University graduates.
'Don't judge yourself by others' standards ... have your own,' Gordy told thousands of graduates and their guests. 'And don't get caught up into the trap of changing yourself to fit the world. The world has to change to fit you. And if you stick to your principles, values and morals long enough, it will.'"
Make sure you tell you new employer that Berry said they've gotta change to fit your world.....dude.

Sick education system


Brighton closes two middle schools due to teacher sick calls: "About half of the teachers at two middle schools called in sick shortly before classes were to begin Friday, resulting in the schools being closed for the day."
Um, isn't this an illegal strike? And "what about the children"? Apparently, the little ones don't matter when money is involved.....

Give 'em a free house?


Muskegon wants free houses : "The NIC's mission ties in with ongoing efforts by the city of Muskegon to offer quality homes to first-time purchasers, and also in an ongoing program to rezone most of the older central city back to single-family zoning. For years, widespread multi-family zoning has encouraged the business of buying up large older homes and carving them into rental apartments.
By now, everyone agrees that single-family owner-occupancy is the surest path to safe, stable neighborhoods. We hope that Burgess will be able to carry that ball a long way in the future. "
Not so sure "everyone agrees" with that idiocy. How 'bout low taxes, good schools and low crimerate? Huh?

Bozo alert!


Police station trick draws jail treat: "A Fruitport Township man who walked into a police station in a Halloween costume despite facing felony warrants has been sentenced to jail. "
