The Writers Guild of America recently gave its best documentary screenplay award to the anti-law enforcement, anti-Republican and anti-Brandon Darby film “Better This World.” In a sense, this is no surprise because the film plays right into Hollywood’s liberal excuse-making

Last night, the RNC yet again decided to turn it’s nomination process over to one of it’s sworn enemies; NBC. This is the network’s second chance to moderate a debate and they are clearly the least objective network. The win

MSNBC host Chris Matthews reserved some of his most aggressive questioning for Republican Chairman Reince Priebus on tonight’s “Hardball.” We don’t remember Mr. Matthews interviewing DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman-Schultz this way.
