I realize this Robert Samuelson article is more than several days old now, but it is clear that Obama-Biden are going to keep repeating the big lie of a $5 trillion Romney “tax cut for the rich” — in fact, other than grabbing onto the tail feathers of Big Bird, claiming that Romney’s denial of their convenient fiction is itself a lie seems to be the crux of their campaign

Benghazi Cover-up: Hillary not going to go under the bus quietly [Darleen Click]
Heh Today the confusion only worsened yet again when Secretary of State Hillary Clinton told reporters that her agency was not the source of misinformation concerning the attacks, charging instead that the White House was the source of the false mantra that the murders were spurred by an anti-Muslim film made in the United States. Clinton told reporters that when Susan Rice, U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, made her

“Stealth Jihad: New York Review of Books calls for criminalizing of criticism of Islam”
Atlas Shrugs — who the respectable right has learned to run from — argues persuasively against the stances being adopted more and more by the self-appointed sophisticates on the left who, at heart, follow an ideological path that as I’ve pointed out on innumerable occasions leads inevitably to authoritarianism and tyranny. And its to that point that I’ll speak here, commenting briefly on an excerpt from Malise Ruthven’s “Can Islam

Zombie training: 2
Since you asked, Ernst… First shot to the left (circled) was the outlier to get my bearings on a new target, and to test if I could see the hit through the 6x magnification (I’d been shooting the hostage target prior to this one — no kills on the chick yesterday, better grouping on Keith Richards’ forehead; I’m now working on hitting particular areas of the head and neck and

“No, Joe! U.S Catholic Bishops Say Biden Spoke Falsely”
I know. Shocker: The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops has issued a statementsaying that Vice President Joe Biden’s assertion in Thursday night’s debate that Obamacare’s sterilization-contraception-abortifacient regulation does not apply to Catholic and other religious institutions is not true. “This is not a fact,” the bishops said of Biden’s claim. “With regard to the assault on the Catholic Church, let me make it absolutely clear,” Biden said in the debate.

The TRUTH SQUAD that isn’t
John in Firestone send along the following, found on facebook and posted by “someone educated at a boarding high school and an Ivy League university, who now has a Master’s degree” — which means only that he when s/he is wrong, s/he can do so with sneering dismissiveness and a wellspring of buzzwords that serve to raise the antennae of other members of the hive mind.

Dog bites Man: Columbia “J-School” hosts uniform pro-Occupy/anti-TEA Party Panel [Darleen Click]
Joseph Pulitzer is rolling in his grave. Harry Stein writes: According to the most recent Gallup poll, distrust of the mainstream media is at an all-time high, “with 60% saying they have little or no trust in the mass media to report the news fully, accurately, and fairly.” Anyone still wondering why might look into a symposium held last week at Columbia University’s Graduate School of Journalism, long the nation’s
