Trump Claims Obama's 'Dreams of My Father' Ghost Written by Bill Ayers
By Mara Gay - AOL NewsApparently, the birth certificate was just the beginning. Donald Trump, the real estate mogul and reality TV star recently turned birther, now says that liberal activist Bill Ayers wrote President Barack Obama's signature book, "Dreams of My Father." "'Dreams of My Father' was genius, and they give him full credit," Trump said of Obama in an interview Wednesday with conservative radio host Laura Ingraham. "But now it's coming out that Bill Ayers wrote it. And [Obama's] only there because of 'Dreams of My Father.'" Ayers, a co-founder of the radical Weather Underground movement that carried ...
Rep. Michele Bachmann Raps First Lady Over Breastfeeding Crusade
By Christopher Weber - Politics DailyAccusing the first lady of trying to create a "nanny state," Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) came down on Michelle Obama for her crusade to make it easier for women to breastfeed. In an interview Tuesday with conservative radio host Laura Ingraham, Bachmann slammed the first lady's push to get mothers to breastfeed their children as a way to reduce childhood obesity, saying it amounted to too much government intervention. As Politics Daily's Lynn Sweet reported, Michelle Obama will speak out to remove barriers to breastfeeding, following a recent White House push for relaxed workplace rules ...
Ginni Thomas' Talk Radio Faves: Rush Limbaugh, Laura Ingraham, Glenn Beck
By David Knowles - AOL News(Oct. 20) -- Drink your tea, but don't touch that dial! Liberty Central, the political nonprofit, nonpartisan but anti-big government and tea party-supporting organization founded by Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas' wife, Virginia "Ginni" Thomas, is "led by a principled and dedicated team that actively listens to others," according to the organization's website. Specifically, some of those others include right-leaning hosts Rush Limbaugh, Laura Ingraham, Mark Levin and Glenn Beck, according to her online bio. Of course, that's not a big surprise given that the staunchly conservative ...
Laura Ingraham's Change of Heart on the 'Ground Zero Mosque'
By Steven Hoffer - AOL News(Aug. 17) -- "It's a finger in the eye to New York," says Fox News radio host Laura Ingraham of the hotly debated plan to construct a mosque and Islamic cultural center two blocks from ground zero -- but a trip to the video archive shows she didn't always feel that way. Ingraham, whose new book "The Obama Diaries" is currently a New York Times best-seller, is one of the many commentators across the political spectrum to voice a strong opinion on the story that has become a microcosm for religious tensions in New York City and the U.S. As flagged by the self-appointed Fox watchdog blog News ...
'The Obama Diaries': 4 Most Outrageous Fake First Family Quotes
By Steven Hoffer - AOL News(July 14) -- Conservative radio host Laura Ingraham has the inside scoop on the Obama family's personal life -- sort of. Ingraham's new book, "The Obama Diaries," released Tuesday by Threshold Editions, delves into the "secret diary" of the president, vice president, first lady and first mother-in-law. How was Ingraham blessed with the unlikely fate of encountering such a coveted personal account inside the Obama administration? From a secret informant similar to how the Watergate scandal developed, apparently: While Ingraham doesn't take kindly to her work being labeled as fiction -- ...
How Right-Wing Talkers Crassly Exploited Ft. Hood Tragedy
By David Corn - Politics DailyOn Tuesday morning I accidentally had the chance to listen to Chris Plante, a Rush-wannabe radio talk-show host who appears on a D.C. station. He was going on and on about how the Fort Hood shootings have driven the nation apart. An agitated Plante noted that 9/11 had brought the country together, but that in the wake of the horrific Fort Hood attack there's been no unity. Why? Because, as his Web site noted, Democrats and liberals have been "trying desperately to convince America" that Nidal Hasan, the presumed shooter, was "just a crazy guy who spent too much time around deployed soldiers ...
How Right-wing Talkers Crassly Exploit the Fort Hood Tragedy
By David Corn - Politics DailyOn Tuesday morning I accidentally had the chance to listen to Chris Plante, a Rush-wannabe radio talk-show host who appears on a local DC station. He was going on and on about how the Fort Hood shootings have driven the nation apart. An agitated Plante noted that 9/11 had brought the country together (that is, until George W. Bush exploited the attack to invade Iraq on false pretenses) but that in the wake of the horrific Fort Hood attack there's been no unity. Why? Because, as his website noted, Democrats and liberals have been "trying desperately to convince America" that Nidal Hasan, the ...
Meghan McCain Lashes Out at Michelle Malkin and Ann Coulter
By Emily Miller - Politics DailyMeghan McCain told Michelle Malkin Tuesday that she would not "shut up" and that the Republican Party should be more inclusive of moderates like herself. The attack by McCain, the Republican daughter of Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), against conservative Malkin is the latest battle in this year's public war of the Republican women pundits. The latest name-calling started on Friday when, according to McCain, "Malkin was asked which conservative political figure or commentator needs to shut up. Guess who her answer was? Yeah, that's right -- yours truly." ...
Meghan McCain Loves 'Jabba the Rush'
By Tommy Christopher - Politics DailyUpdate: Correction, from Allahpundit in our comments section:"I wrote the post. Ed added the update." My sincerest apologies.Captain Ed Morrissey points out that, according to her Twitter feed, Meghan McCain has found the comedic Holy Grail: (Tweet #1 and #2)To the people at current that created this, I am flattered beyond words. I can officially die a happy woman. Officially the funniest thing I have ever seen in my entire life (and I have seen my fair share). Thanks for correctly animating my bootylicious body :-) LOVE IT!!!Here's the video: I, too, found it to be pretty funny. I ...
Britney, Paris, Miley, and Meghan
By Matt Lewis - Politics DailyShe's the biggest celebrity in the world...but is she ready to lead? Everyone wants to talk to her, and if they can't do that, they talk about her. Let's face it, Meghan McCain is everywhere -- and I doubt she's going away any time soon. That's quite an impressive accomplishment, especially considering she was soundly defeated by Sasha and Malia in last year's race for first daughter (I kid, I kid...). Yet she has managed to break free from her father and establish herself as an independent national figure -- notifying the world that she is a very savvy and intelligent young lady. Yet, I can't ...
