Steele: Obama was the Real Problem in the Gates Affair »

By LisaB on Aug 3, 2009 in Current Affairs | 53 Comments

I was hoping that Shelby Steele, a “self-described black conservative,” would eventually weigh in on Gates-gate. The WSJ published an op-ed, “From Emmitt Till to Skip Gates,” by the “author, columnist, documentary film maker, and a research fellow at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University, specialising in the study of race relations, multiculturalism [...]

NQ First Responders - Sadly overlooked articles »

By LisaB on Aug 1, 2009 in Current Affairs | 14 Comments

This round-up includes a real “teachable moment” for the media with its double standard towards two famous black women that differs solely because of their politics, the aristocratic scolds who are the most upset about the blue-collar Sgt. Crowley’s treatment of Henry Louis Gates, and the “group think” that explains the media’s sudden preoccupation [...]

While Obama Continues to Erect Roadblocks, Congress Presses to End “Don’t Ask Don’t Tell” Policy »

By Bronwyn's Harbor on Jul 30, 2009 in Armed Services Committee, Civil Liberties, Civil Rights, Current Affairs, Don't Ask Don't Tell, Father Michael Pfleger, Gay Rights, Rev. James Meeks, Rev. Jeremiah Wright Jr., Rev. Otis Moss | 16 Comments

The only reason I’m writing this story about gays in the military instead of the true expert, Rabble Rouser Reverend Amy, who’s hammered President Obama for not carrying through with his campaign promises to revoke “don’t ask don’t tell” — is that I happened to catch a segment on upcoming Armed Services hearing to [...]

“‘barack obama is a big fat liar’, illustrated” times two - UPDATE »

By American Girl in Italy on Jul 5, 2009 in Barack Obama, Current Affairs, Flip Flopping, Health Care, Hillary Clinton, John McCain, Obama's Broken Promises, Sara in Italy, Universal Health Care | 66 Comments

I read two great posts from NRO, Barack Obama Is a Big Fat Liar by Jim Geraghty, and ‘Barack Obama is a Big Fat Liar,’ Illustrated, by Guy Benson.
Geraghty writes:
Ever since Barack Obama declared his candidacy for president, it’s been easy — and great fun — to spotlight when his promises and statements come with [...]

“Well, Isn’t That Convenient?” »

By Rabble Rouser Reverend Amy on Jul 2, 2009 in Current Affairs, Hillary Clinton, Hoodwinking, Rendition, Rev. Jeremiah Wright Jr., Sara in Italy | 52 Comments

Recently, well, for the past five months anyway, people have been wondering just where Obama was going to make his church home in the DC area. Oh, he tried out a place or two, but you know, there are actual, real people there, and so much media focus, that he just couldn’t get into [...]

About That Whitey Tape »

By Larry Johnson on May 17, 2009 in Larry Johnson, Michelle Obama, No Quarter Blog, Rev. Jeremiah Wright Jr. | 139 Comments

Since an attention-starved “journalist” named David Wiegel wote an article Saturday that memorializes my post a year ago on the so-called “whitey tape” — purported to show Michelle Obama using the term “whitey” — I’ve decided to re-post the two articles I wrote last year to refute any and all rumors. (See more articles [...]

Sinking newspapers and who is up to No Good »

By Uppity Woman on May 10, 2009 in Congress (House & Senate), John Kerry, Media, Print | 27 Comments

At a time when our National Debt has now reached a level so large that most Americans don’t even know exactly how many zeros are attached to it, John Kerry wants to make newspapers “Not for profit” so that they no longer have to pay taxes.
Hours before a Senate hearing on struggling newspapers, Sen. John [...]

my, how the times, they are a changin’ »

By American Girl in Italy on Mar 23, 2009 in Barack Obama, Current Affairs, Jimmy Carter | 163 Comments

These are some of the stories I read this week. There seems to be a new tone emerging in the media, wrt Obama. I don’t really have anything to add to these stories - they are pretty much to the point, and quite interesting. I included a snippet from each story, but recommend reading [...]

I would like to share with you this interesting article, courtesy of “I’m A Linda Too,” a regular reader here at No Quarter yesterday. It is quite something. A bit late in coming, perhaps, but hey, better late than never, right? The title pretty much gives it away: Media Critic Blasts Chris [...]

To expect Obama to speak out against his minion’s boorish, often aggressive behavior? That’s my response to the following article, The Ugly Side of the Inauguration: Obamamania’s Mean Streak (and MAJOR H/T to American Girl in Italy for this link). The author, Mr. Frederick, had this to say:
Ironic that on Inauguration Day, when [...]

A Profound Prayer Until…Wrong Turn! »

By Pat Racimora on Jan 22, 2009 in Current Affairs | 123 Comments

I tuned into the inauguration extravaganza while driving to the doctor’s. My mind was wandering as it droned on. Then came the Rev. Joseph Lowery. I sat straight up in my seat. His powerfully full voice, despite his advanced age, was putting forth an impassioned melody. (Try to hear a [...]

Classic NQ: Oh, How We Loved Driving Obots Into a Frenzy with Our Anti-Idolatrous Writing at NoQuarter »

By SusanUnPC on Jan 10, 2009 in Anti-Semitism, Gaza, Israel, Rev. Jeremiah Wright Jr. | 67 Comments

Susan’s Preface: Reverend Amy remembered this story by me from the primaries. She FORCED ME to post it since we’re trying to remind our readers, new and old, of some of the reasons why we might be worthy of an award for political commentary. So, embarrassed as I am to be flaunting my stuff, [...]

What are women, Jews, and gays - and those who care about them - going to do now in preparation for 2012? »

By Heidi Li on Dec 24, 2008 in Current Affairs | 55 Comments

[Originally posted at Heidi Li's Potpourri]
If you are a Jew, a woman, a gay person or a somebody who is not any of these but cares about somebody who is, and you voted for President-elect Obama in the primaries or the general election, read Katha Pollitt (article reprinted,with light annotation, below). Than ask yourself some [...]

ayers and obama confirm that obama lied »

By American Girl in Italy on Nov 14, 2008 in Barack Obama, Current Affairs, Rev. Jeremiah Wright Jr., William Ayers | 150 Comments

(bumped up by NoQuarter)
It seems pointless to point out the obvious, especially when the majority of the country apparently doesn’t care if their Presidential Candidate lies to them, but I must follow up, anyway.
“In a new afterword to his memoir, 1960s radical William Ayers describes himself as a “family friend” of President-elect Barack Obama [...]

RBO: “’60s radicals suddenly tumbling out of the woodwork” »

(We hope to write more about this conference at NoQuarter. Here is the link to the NYTimes story.)
Cross posted from RBO. Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn wouldn’t say a word to reporters about their relationship to Barack Obama during the campaign. Absolute silence ensued when they were approached. As predicted, suddenly, they have found [...]

Minister Farrakhan and Barack Obama »

By Matthew Weaver on Nov 5, 2008 in Barack Obama, Current Affairs, Jesse Jackson, Michelle Obama, Minister Louis Farrakhan, Nation of Islam, Rev. James Meeks, Rev. Jeremiah Wright Jr., Rev. Michael Pfleger | 127 Comments

There has been a virtual wall of silence around Barack Obama’s long-time ties with Minister Louis Farrakhan of the Nation of Islam. One is tempted to dismissively say that the Minister is ‘just a guy in the neighborhood’, much like William Ayers.
Turns out that Ayers was not just a guy in the neighborhood. [...]

Jonathan Martin of Politico reports that the Pennsylvania GOP is running the following

Can I ever relate to that! Yes, contrary to the constant badgering of my family, there is no way in freakin’ HELL I will ever vote for Obama. Not ever gonna happen, I keep telling them, and for the HOST of reasons about which I have written ad nauseum, at this point. [...]

MSM Has NO Integrity - from an Insider »

By LisaB on Oct 28, 2008 in Barack Obama, Current Affairs, Media, Media Bias, Media Handling of Story | 199 Comments

One of many maddening problems that NQ readers and writers have long puzzled over (and cursed, and railed against) is the seemingly intractable media bias in favor of Barack Obama. Beginning with the smear tactics and misogyny directed at Hillary Clinton in the primaries, the media has intentionally helped Obama every step of the [...]
