Obama and the Media

The White House this week advised mainstream media outlets against taking the Fox News Channel and its stories seriously. This would, of course,  include stories like the ACORN scandal and the opinions of former Obama “Green Jobs” czar Van Jones who resigned amidst relevations relating to his signature on a petition endorsing a 9/11 conspiracy theory. Senator [...]

Obama and International Perception

On the heels of my last blog based on a Facebook conversation I had with a friend, I received this message from a high-school friend who is now living in Brazil- Hey brad, I have just seen your protesting Obama pictures. I wanna ask you something… here in Brazil, we get the news that America [...]

On the Nonsense In Norway

President Obama was as surprised as the rest of the world when he learned of the news Friday morning that he had received the 2009 Nobel Prize for Peace. It is true that the Obama administration has been undertaking recent efforts towards the promotion of peace. Secretary of State Clinton just recently represented the U.S. administration in [...]

The Nobel Prom King

Someone should go check Alfred Nobel’s grave and see if his bones are still rolling around from the news that broke early Friday morning. Seeing the prestigious awards he founded turned into a politicized stunt honoring people for what hopefully might happen would probably have upset him quite a bit. President Obama only needed to [...]

Pursuing World Peace

With negotiations underway today between representatives of the Islamic Republic of Iran and six powers in Geneva, a review of the Obama foreign policy thus far is in order. Though in many respects the foreign policy of this administration has been a disaster of his own making, President Obama deserves credit for tackling enduring foreign policy issues early in his presidency. That [...]

On Conduct and Coverage

Brad Tidwell today offers a thoughtful rebuttal to my September 17th post Joe Wilson, 9/12, and the GOP Image Problem. In that response, my conservative colleague correctly observes that conservatives face a built-in uphill battle on the media front. He further reminds readers that Joe Wilson’s outburst was not exactly incorrect on its merits. On these two [...]

Serena, Kanye, Wilson and the GOP’s Crisis of Coverage

Serena Williams lost the tennis match. But for the most part, unless we had been watching the game, we wouldn’t all know that. It’s because of the video of her actions afterwards that literally everyone knows about it. Beyonce did not win the VMA music award for her music video. But, again, most people not [...]
