Outfits like the George Soros-subsidized Media Matters will have a field day with it – excerpting passages out of context, deliberately distorting the words I am carefully choosing and, in typical knee-jerk fashion, mocking its premise.
Cable TV propagandists posing as “newsmen” will hurl [...]

Did The Townhall Gunman Save Healthcare Reform?

Joe Weisenthal
It was just a few days ago we were wondering if the Skip Gates affair killed healthcare reform. Now the pendulum has swung the other way, because it’s official: the healthcare protesters look like deranged nutjobs, whose main interest is in shouting down people who disagree with them.
