tweet re FL shooter 2017-01-06_143516 - 300px

F-35s, Peggy Noonan, and another shooting – for Friday Jan 6 2017

1. Here’s a strong rebuke against the F-35 program, which is laid out here as (and certainly appears to me to be) the epitome of Washington’s systemic bloat, bureaucratic stupor, and institutionalized cronyism. Even early supporters of the system like Canada are today struggling to make the final decision over its ultimate purchase, and articles like […]

BREAKING: Ohio mass shooter…. oh nevermind….

Have you ever seen huge news story disappear so fast? Nothing in recent memory has vanished quite as quickly as the story of a “another” “mass shooter” at a university campus. CNN spent two weeks with 148 expert panelists discussing how Donald Trump said something mean to an overweight beauty pageant winner. But this story? […]

BRILLIANT take-down of CNN, a CNN reporter, a CNN anchor, and its hideously biased agenda-driven editing

Joel Johannesen on TwitterFollow Joel Johannesen on Twitter

I’ll get to the point in a second. But first (and I promise this is related), I read my usual National Review articles this morning and copied this nugget: Conservatism must be about explaining to non-conservatives why they should be conservative not why they can’t be. This is politics 101 going back to Aristotle: Persuasion. ~ by […]

CNN’s Bias is “Over The Top”

By on Friday May 27, 2016 at 11:11 am
Joel Johannesen on TwitterFollow Joel Johannesen on Twitter

Supposedly, not a CNN opinion piece: This is how CNN introduced their “news report” about Trump achieving the 1,237 delegate votes needed to secure the nomination, on Wednesday May 26, 2016: If you think CNN was using the occasion to ever so delicately imply Donald Trump is “OVER THE TOP” with all his egregiously inaccurate and tendentious wordplay, you’re obviously […]

(UPDATED): CNN anchor Carol Costello in shameful display of callous bias, Palin-hate

You know how you can tell when the liberal media is so liberal they don’t even know how liberal they are? When liberal news anchors at a major national news network report with utter contempt for a politician, in a manner in which they believe everyone in the room agrees with them. Enter CNN’s Carol […]

Harry Reid dismisses CNN reporter for asking sensible question re shutdown

By on Wednesday October 2, 2013 at 12:46 pm
Joel Johannesen on TwitterFollow Joel Johannesen on Twitter

Here’s a clip the liberal mainstream media will definitely be running over and over! Right? Of course! Wait. No? In what has to be one of the most amazing gaffalicious quotes of 2013 if not the past several years, Democratic Senate Leader Harry Reid got flustered by… a sensible question; then oozed brain poo on […]

What I’d do if I were Mr.GOP

By on Tuesday October 1, 2013 at 10:21 am
Joel Johannesen on TwitterFollow Joel Johannesen on Twitter

Hi Reince Priebus, The government has partially shut down. The GOP is not part of that shut-down, as far as I know. So they’re still “open,” right? If I were in charge of the GOP, which I really should be because then Republicans would be a shoo-in to win, I’d spend millions on TV and […]

(Video) CNN’s Ashleigh Banfield erupts on Paul Begala

I think this speaks to how the liberals and their media division is freaking-out over how this #HarryReidsShutdown looks to the public. They (both the Democrats and their media division) so wanted this shut-down, but this yearning was contingent upon the public buying their sales pitch  —  their Obamacult narrative  —  in which the public […]

AP and CNN in Agenda-ridden WORST TWERK FAIL

By on Tuesday September 10, 2013 at 7:45 am
Joel Johannesen on TwitterFollow Joel Johannesen on Twitter

This tweet from Associated Press is like the journalistic version of that Worst Twerk Fail video. It’s from this morning, the timing being important. And it’s from AP — a supposedly reliable news organization, which Americans and the whole world rely on for truth about the current events in our world, and which most news […]

CNNs pro-Obama news teasers

CNN and others purposely misrepresenting what Romney said. The perfidy of the media is amazing.

By on Tuesday September 18, 2012 at 10:14 am
Joel Johannesen on TwitterFollow Joel Johannesen on Twitter

CNN, in its mendacious teaser at its awful web site, selectively navigates through the “secret video” from a fundraiser in May, and conjures-up these choice words to attract attention: “Romney was recorded saying 47% of voters will back Obama because they’re dependent on the government and said his “job is not to worry about those […]

Slayer of liberal cliches watches as Piers Morgan unwittingly slays himself with cliches

By on Friday May 4, 2012 at 10:44 am
Joel Johannesen on TwitterFollow Joel Johannesen on Twitter

I missed it on purpose because being the caring, sympathetic type, I can’t stand watching the failing CNN’s Piers Morgan implode whenever he has another smart conservative on. Luckily, columnist David Limbaugh watched. His take on Morgan’s interview with that slayer of the liberal clichés, Jonah Goldberg, is great. And it served as a reminder […]

CNN’s ratings are tanking again, while further left MSNBC also dipped, last month. The number one rated Fox News Channel, however, held its own and even rose a little. CNN Has Lowest-Rated Month In More Than A Decade In April It’s no April Fool’s joke — last month CNN delivered its lowest-rated month in total […]

Slaughter of innocents

Last week I wrote of how proud I was of being a Zionist, and how much I admired and respected the flawed but still remarkable state of Israel. The vomit of abuse was predictable — sent to me privately but also on display in the comment section of this newspaper. Just hours later, the militant, […]
