Inspector General: Obama Administration Edited BP Oil Spill Report to Falsely Suggest Consensus for Gulf Drilling Ban

The administration’s six-month moratorium on deep-water drilling in the Gulf of Mexico wasn’t “peer reviewed” at all. No, it was an executive decision by President Obama, and the report was then edited — apparently by a staffer for Carol Browner — to make it look like experts had “peer reviewed” that recommendation. The experts had complained in […]

Obi’s Sister: Movin’ On Up!

Our longtime blog buddy is now a front-page contributor to Peach Pundit, the premier Georgia politics blog. She celebrates by throwing out the five-dollar word “praxeum” (an inside joke for Star Wars geeks, it seems) because she’s now the William F. Buckley Jr. of Georgia bloggers or something. Congratulations, Ginny!

‘Herewith, a Brief Primer’

Michael Gerson — he of that silly phrase — comes off like an arrogant chump in an interview with Laura Ingraham: In this morning’s “Live at Five,” Wombat linked Ken Larrey’s “Big Journalism” piece on Gerson, which you should certainly read.

‘A Deliberate . . . Systemic Campaign to Kill Obama’s Presidency in Its Crib’

What the Left Thinks of You

Verum Serum gives some tasty excerpts of these deep thoughts from a leading “progressive” thinker: Christian fundamentalists, the millennial end-of-theworlders obsessed with the Left Behind series about the End Times, neo-Nazi racists, rural black-helicopter Michigan Militia types cut from the same inbred cloth as Timothy McVeigh, allied with “mainstream” gun nuts and right-wing Republicans, have been […]
