Ken Berwitz After blogging about all the political crap, I thought you might want to hear, and see, something really great. Here is Freddie Mercury and operatic singer Montserrat Caballe singing Mercury\’s composition, “Barcelona”, which was going to be the theme of the 1992 summer olympics, but was pulled after Mercury died of AIDS months before they were going to...
Ken Berwitz No excerpts here. Only a link. If you click here, you will find the letter that House Oversight Committee Chair Trey Gowdy has sent to ranking Democrat Elijah Cummings – a letter that a) was way, way overdue and b) is actually pleasant and collegial compared to what Cummings deserved. Believe me, you have not seen a letter like this before. Ok, ok, just one...
Ken Berwitz From investigative reporter James Rosen of Fox News (certainly not NBC, CBS or ABC): Some senior U.S. officials involved in the implementation ofthe Iran nuclear deal have privately concluded that a key sanctions reliefprovision – a concession to Iran that will open the doors to tens of billionsof dollars in U.S.-backed commerce with the Islamic regime – conflicts...
Ken Berwitz You would be hard pressed to know this based on the amount of coverage mainstream media are providing, but there has been a sudden rash of attacks by Palestinian Arabs on Jewish citizens throughout Israel, but centered in Jerusalem. A young couple was shot to death in front of their children, while driving home. Two dead and two seriously injured in a stabbing days...
Ken Berwitz What is the problem with gun control laws? Cartoonist Chip Bok provides the answer – clearly and cogently – to that question, which all too many advocates of more and stricter gun control laws cannot bring themselves to face: The problem, of course, is that people who do not obey gun control laws are unaffected by them. This is not to say strict, logical...
Ken Berwitz First, we have these links, from drudgereport.com: ROLLING STONE: There Is No Real Hillary… People aren\’t meant to be relaunched as often as phones… Heckled at Hispanic Caucus event… Men dislike at unprecedented levels… Then this one: MAG: VP INCHES CLOSER TO RUN? Any doubt about what\’s going on here? I am certain that Joe Biden has...
Ken Berwitz Not much need to expand on the “for me, but not thee” message we find in S. A Miller\’s piece for the Washington Times: Senate Democrats gathered Thursday on the steps of the Capitol surrounded by about a dozen armed guards to announce a new push for tougher gun-control laws. The officers from the U.S. Capitol Police, who carried sidearms, were in addition to...
Ken Berwitz Chuck Ross is a first-class investigative reporter for dailycaller.com. And his latest blog, if accurate, will literally blow the lid off of Hillary Clinton\’s handling of Benghazi and, more generally Libya — unless mainstream media decides to bury it (which is always a possibility – especially on behalf of a Clinton). Mr. Ross\’s piece is long, and the...
Ken Berwitz Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) has dropped his bid to become Speaker Of The House. We can talk about media bias, RINO on the left, Tea Partiers on the right and a bunch of other things….but this man\’s deal was sealed the minute he opened his mouth about the Benghazi hearings. I would bet that Hillary Clinton and her people, will commiserate with McCarthy – not out of...
Ken Berwitz Republican presidential candidate BenCarson has apparently ignited a major firestorm, by suggesting that the victimsof chris harper mercer\’s massacre at Upqua Community College – 9 dead, 7 othersinjured – could have done more to save themselves. Excerpted from Curtis Houck\’s blog atnewsbusters.org: ABC\’s World News Tonight anchor David Muir...
Ken Berwitz In her book,”Hard Choices”, Hillary Clinton took major credit for negotiating theTrans Pacific Pact (TPP). In her own words: “TheTPP became the signature economic pillar of our strategy in Asia, Demonstratingthe rules-based order and greater cooperation with the United States.” But now that majorunions, which hate TPP – including the AFL-CIO...
Ken Berwitz Today\’s paragraphscome to us from Jennifer Rubin\’s latest commentary, for theWashington Post. Here is what Ms.Rubin has to day about the Obama administration\’s veracity – actually its lackof same: Mohammed Saeed al-Sahaf, betterknown as “Baghdad Bob,” was the unintentionally hilarious Iraqiinformation minister who, no matter what evidence...
Ken Berwitz Getting too serious in here. From our pal, Barbie Buddy, we have these: Ok, back to politics, where we also have no cash, no hope, no jobs….but plenty of our politicians still bring home the bacon anyway. To themselves.
Ken Berwitz Attention New YorkTimes editorial board: this article, by and Greg Gordon and Amy Kumar ofMcClatchy.com, just might explain why there still is a Benghazi investigativecommittee, in a way that even you might understand. A few excerpts foryour enjoyment: Hillary Clinton hired a Connecticut company to back up her emailson a “cloud” storage...
Ken Berwitz Are you intorah-rah articles that pretend to be neutral, but are clearly promotional innature? Then you\’ll love Scott Collins\’ article in last Friday\’s Los Angeles Times, which attempts – pretty lamely, if you ask me – to convince us thatThe Late Show, now starring Stephen Colbert instead of David Letterman, is ahuge hit……..after...
