LEAVWORLD: GRAFFITI POLITTI

Bill O'reilly has the goods on Bill Moyers. He caught Moyers saying something disparaging about O'reilly and Fox News, and then denying he said it. He showed the denial first, of course. I have been a Moyers critic for quite some time, so I enjoyed seeing this report. Still, it almost smacked of a petty stunt, but I wasn't the target of Moyers' words, either. I think O'reilly should stick to investigating Moyers' connections with PBS, and his financial ties to George Soros , which he mentioned in the Factor segment. However, there is no doubt that Moyers' credibility is shot. I have two previous posts on him, which illustrate my thoughts about him: LIKE IT IS: MOYERS' HYPOCRISY "HE DOTH PROTEST TOO MUCH": IS BILL MOYERS BEING PERSECUTED? For the record, I have two posts that differ with O'Reilly, as well: LEAVWORLD SLAMS O'REILLY: A FIRST! MAC JOHNSON VS. O'REILLY ON GAS PRICES! Can Moyers continue to go around "characterizing&

A tidbit from Cindy Adams : ELECTIONS ago, New York magazine crowned Bill Bradley as the new hot candidate. He must be in the Witness Protection system because nobody's heard from him since. A while back New York magazine crowned Howard Dean as the new hot candidate. He never got out of the starting gate. New York magazine just crowned Barack Obama as the new hot candidate. Poor Barack Obama. (Note to Sen. Bradley: Send Cindy a signed copy of your book, "The New American Story," and remind her that you are still around.) Cindy Adams is a legendary gossip columnist, known for her "talking to you" NY slang style of writing (which I detested, until I adopted it, on occasasion). She is far from political, but she knows politics. Her take on this is not to be taken lightly, though it will be, by most "political observers" and "commentators." The political truth is that Obama doesn't have a chance, just as Dean and Bradley didn't. It's

I caught the ending of "The Day After Tomorrow" on TV tonight, and I remembered that Al Gore used the release date of that movie as a PR opportunity ( Gore Warns of 'Climate Emergency' While Promoting Disaster Film ... ), about a year before he put out his own oscar-winning "documentary" movie, An Inconvenient Truth . The day that Gore made his speech, the temperature in NYC was at a record cold, in over the last half-century. It fit in with the preposterous scenario of the movie, which was "global warming's effect will be global cooling, at least over the USA." Perhaps that is why he wasn't more widely ridiculed at the time. Gore's newest effort to radicalize the left wing troops in defense of the climate is getting stiffer factual resistance than one cold day in NYC. It looks as if April is coming in with winter's vengance, and making up for the warm winter weather we (in NYC) got in January. Snow from Texas to NY, and temperature

Crosssposted from the fine people at STOP THE ACLU , written by lobo in OK. April 11, 2007 10:08 PM NewsChannel5.com A federal judge has granted permission to a group of parents to try to stop a lawsuit filed by the ACLU. The suit claims Wilson County schools violated constitutional separation of church and state. It alleges Lakeview Elementary school in Mt. Juliet and the Wilson County school board endorsed and promoted religious activities on campus that led to constitutional violations. Very short article, lacking much information, but here is an Oct.2006 piece from Alain's Newsletter that gives a bit more detail. Old Hickory, TN – U.S. Senate candidate Bob Corker today said the Tennessee chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) is woefully wrong to have filed what he called a "frivolous liberal lawsuit" against the Wilson County School District alleging a morning prayer endorsed by Lakeview Elementary School officials is a constitutional violation of chur

Speaker Pelosi says that Syria is "willing to talk" to Israel. Didn't she also say that Israel was "ready to talk" to Syria, when she was there? What the hell is she talking about? She mentioned nothing about the "preconditions" to these talks: Israel will not consider any "right of return" for Palestinians, and Syria will not accept Israel "occupying" Palestinian land, including East Jerusalem. These "stumbling blocks" to the "peace process," as well as many others, are well known. Did she ask President Asad to crack down on anti-semitism, or allow entry to "common" people who have traveled to Israel first? No average traveller or tourist could follow her path, because Syria won't let anyone who's been to Israel into their country, unless they have "diplomatic" priveleges, which Speaker Pelosi enjoys. There is also the question of how so many Al Queda operatives move through Syria, wi
