Keith Olbermann “Worst Person In The World” Keith Olbermann, host of “Countdown With Keith Olbermann” on MSNBC and Cornell Ag Graduate , is “The Worst Person In The World” according to Townhall Magazine . Which is rather amusing since Keith devotes a segment of his show each night to naming his “Worst Person In The World” . I suppose we shouldn’t be laughing since  Taxpayers Are Financing Keith Olbermann’s…

This Is Not Tom Friedman’s China — By: Jonah Goldberg

From his newspaper: BEIJING — China, the world’s most prodigious emitter of greenhouse gas, continues to suffer the downsides of unbridled economic growth despite a raft of new environmental initiatives. The quality of air in Chinese cities is increasingly tainted by coal-burning power plants, grit from construction sites and exhaust from millions of new cars squeezing onto crowded roads, according to a government study issued this week. Other newly released figures show a jump in industrial accidents and an epidemic of pollution in waterways. The report’s most unexpected findings pointed to an increase in inhalable particulates in …

A Profile in Bias: Christiane Amanpour, ABC’s New Host of ‘This Week’

On August 1, former CNN anchor Christiane Amanpour will become the permanent host of ABC’s This Week, replacing Jake Tapper. In preparation, the MRC has compiled the top ten examples of the journalist’s over-the-top liberal bias. Despite asserting in 2009 that “nobody knows my biases,” Amanpour has gushed over many left-wing politicians, including Hillary Clinton: “…A lot of the women that I meet from traveling overseas are very impressed by you and admire your dignity.” She also justified Barack Obama’s Nobel Prize win, lauding, “He’s …

Why "science" has a problem

Why "science" has a problem

I t’s a fairly obvious reason that Kenneth P. Green and Hiwa Alaghebandian, writing in the Journal of the American Enterprise Institute , point to as the problem – in some areas, science and scientists have gone from being neutral observers of facts and purveyors of information developed through the scientific method to attempting to assume an authoritarian and activist role in our lives. Not all of science, obviously, but certainly a visible and loud minority. And that causes problems for all of science: In…

Florida ‘Church’ Demonstrates How Christians Should Burn Koran (VIDEO)

Florida ‘Church’ Demonstrates How Christians Should Burn Koran (VIDEO)

On Sept. 11, 2010, members of the Dove World Outreach Center — a non-denominational Christian church of dubious credibility in Gainesville, Florida — plan to burn copies of the Koran in a public ceremony billed as a memorial for the 9/11 terrorist attacks. “Uh, what?” you may be asking. How about we let Dove World pastor Wayne Sapp explain it: “Why would we burn the Koran?” he says in a video the church posted to YouTube last week. “The Koran, the holy book of Islam? Because we’re Christian.” Prior to the whole book burning scheme, Dove World Outreach Center was best known for using the slogan “Islam Is Of The Devil,” which it has plastered across its website and in large signs…

Another Obama supporter finds “disappointment”

Another Obama supporter finds “disappointment”

I think we could probably make this a regular feature on Q&O – this week’s Obama supporter who finds that he who was wrapped in all the hype of the presidential campaign was mostly an empty suit. This week it is the editorial board of the Denver Post – who admits to endorsing Mr. Obama in 2008 because they thought his ideas for recovery from the financial crisis were better than McCain’s.? But we also hoped he would restore the nation’s reputation with the rest of the world. But instead of being vilified, as we were under Bush, the United States …
