Here's today's blatantly dishonest post at Breitbart.com by one of their hackiest writers, Ben Shapiro: WRIGHT: OBAMA TRIED TO BRIBE ME TO KEEP QUIET IN ...

Tonight, Dana Loesch is calling for an investigation into my sinister plot to silence conservatives. [Insert evil laugh.] Some should check out Charles Johnson's blatant violation, abuse of TOS in effort to silence conservatives. He's trying hard to hide it! — Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) May 2, 2012 Followed up, in the usual Loesch ...

They're at it again. The heirs of Andrew at Breitbart.com have launched a full-scale attack against columnist Dan Savage today. As I write this, there are nine, count 'em, nine front page hit pieces on Savage, with titles like "OBAMA WHITE HOUSE FUNDRAISES FOR ANTI-CHRISTIAN BULLY SAVAGE," and "NSFW: SAVAGE'S ...

Here's a tale of a wingnut gotcha gone horribly wrong. One of the people I block on Twitter because his tweets are a never-ending cascade of derp is Blue Collar Todd, a far right religious fanatic who specializes in the "I'm rubber, you're glue" style of right-wing blogging, accusing left ...

After the totally fake controversy about "stay at home moms" drummed up by the Republican Party, this clip of Mitt Romney is pretty devastating. As recently as January of this year, Mitt Romney was singing a very different tune, telling poor women they shouldn't be allowed to stay at home ...

Another day, another completely fake right wing outrage. Today's trumped-up nonsense from the right involves Democratic strategist Hilary Rosen, who criticized Mitt Romney for using his wife to claim he understood the difficulties faced by working women. Rosen's exact words were: "Guess what, his wife has actually never worked a ...

Another day, another ridiculous fake outrage from the clowns at Breitbart.com, as they dig up a six-year old photo to scream about: Obama's 'Jewbag' Liaison to the Jewish Community. The Democratic Party, which comfortably assumes that it has the Jewish vote in their pocket, doesn’t think much of Jews. The ...
Video Would you believe that when I helped launch Pajamas Media, one of the goals was to create a site that would transcend left-right politics, promote environmentalism and science, and allow free discussion of ideas without ideological blinders? I know, it's almost impossible to believe, if you look at the pure right ...

When Andrew Breitbart passed away, the editors and bloggers who made his "Big" sites what they are today swore a blood oath to carry on his legacy of devastating BOMBSHELL stings, and their inept fumbling attempts to do so have produced a classic week of wingnut comedy. Feeding the Media When he ...

Raving wingnut CNN contributor Dana Loesch is really going for the Incredibly Stupid Post prize of the day with her latest ridiculous fake outrage: The New “Potatoe?” Biden to Visit “Road Island”. The first sentence is definitely the funniest thing I've read today; Loesch thinks Dan Quayle is "an exceptionally bright ...

As if to illustrate just how incredibly dense some right wing bloggers can be, Andrew Breitbart's editor-in-chief John Nolte picks a fight with ...

So many fake outrages, so little time. I just realized I hadn't yet covered the phony story that came out this week about the Obamas' Halloween party for children of military families. The main reason why I didn't write about this one is that I honestly can't even figure out why ...

Remember when GOP presidential candidate Jon Huntsman called out his Republican opponents for rejecting the science of evolution and climate change? That was just last August. In the three months since then, he's apparently decided to throw in his lot with the anti-science wing of the GOP. Speaking today at the ...

This one goes out to the right wingers who've emailed demanding to know when I'm going to cover the Son of Climategate pseudo-scandal, in which still-unknown entities have released another, larger selection of emails from their original theft in November 2009. The short version: pathetically bogus. But after seven independent investigations have ...
