POLIWOOD: D Tonight at 7:30 on Showtime. Director Barry Levinson’s 90-minute “Poliwood” is billed as a film essay. That’s like calling the back of a cereal box a novel. Say what you will about Michael Moore, but at least he knows how to spin a story. Levinson (“Rain Man”) aims to explore the crash of politics, celebrity and media. He’s fascinated as to why performers are greeted with hostility when they become politically active. He trails famous members of the Creative Coalition, Hollywood’s nonprofit, nonpartisan lobbying group for arts funding, through the 2008 Democratic and Republican presidential conventions. The coalition’s...

On Tuesday, Republican gubernatorial candidate Bob McDonnell appeared on the Laura Ingraham Radio Show and, to the delight of many pro-lifers, took a definitive stand on banning taxpayer funding of Planned Parenthood. For many, such as Virginians For Life, such a public stand from McDonnell was essential and urged him for some time to make a public pledge. Remember

Ingraham: "I might not be invited back..."

Here is video of ABC's "This Week" discussing the White House's war with Fox News Channel. Laura Ingraham pointed out that the White House seems more "impassioned" about Fox News than they are about terrorists....(Video)

Sunday October 4 2009 Notes from JWR: I'm scheduled to be guest on the Laura Ingraham syndicated talk radio show tomorrow (Monday, October 5th), to discuss preparedness topics, from 11:15 AM to 11:45 AM Eastern Time (8:15 AM to 8:45 AM Pacific Time.) She is heard on more than 300 radio stations, on XM Radio, and on the Internet in both live streaming and podcasts.

Here is video of Laura Ingraham in for Bill O'Reilly talking with Democratic Strategist Keith Watters about a new DNC ad that attacks Dick Cheney and "enhanced interrogation techniques." When asked about Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and what is "permissible" to do with him if interrogation is not, Watters said "if someone has broken the law, they should be held accountable" as if Khalid Sheikh Mohammed is just a common criminal. Ingraham pointed out that he was not just a common criminal but had a key part in the attacks of Sept. 11 and asked Watters "you didn't consider that an...

Sitting in for Bill O’Reilly tonight (September 3rd), Laura Ingraham discussed the (communist racist truther) Green Jobs Czar Van Jones with author Bakari Kitwana and republican strategist Angela McGlowan. Jones is signatory #46 on the official 911 Truth Statement. Just in case this web page is scrubbed as others have been lately, here’s a PDF document of the page.

She is doing a great job and looks Beautiful.

The Daily Beast's Meghan McCain on why the far-right pundit, who says McCain needs to shut up, won’t be getting her wish—and why telling moderates to get out of the party is bad for the GOP. BY MEGHAN MCCAIN Michelle Malkin, the conservative pundit and author of the recent book Culture of Corruption: Obama and His Team of Tax Cheats, Crooks, and Cronies, was asked during a live chat on Politico’s The Arena on Friday which conservative political figure or commentator needs to shut up. Guess who her answer was? Yeah, that’s right—yours truly. So Michelle Malkin successfully rounds out...

Things are unfolding largely as I have been predicting. I initially predicted that the Democrats would try and paint the protests at townhalls as largely manufactured. I said that this would a very counter productive strategy. So, yesterday, I said the Democrats would pivot and instead try and characterize them as out of control and as extremists. That's the sort of commentary now coming from a lot of the media.

Here is video of Laura Ingraham last night talking with Ann Coulter about "racial profiling" and the Henry Louis Gates Jr. arrest controversy. Coulter believes most accusations of racial profiling are "a hoax," and she talks through many of those cases in the video. Ingraham also asked Ann about her faceoff with the Rev. Al Sharpton on Larry King Live this week. . . . . . . . .(Watch Video)

Here is video of conservative talk show host Laura Ingraham on The O'Reilly Factor last night where she said it was ridiculous the way the media has covered Obama's "Beer Summit" as if it was the "Yalta or Potsdam Conferences." Ingraham noted that some networks even used satellite imagery to set the scene for the "Beer Summit," and a "Countdown Clock to the Beer Summit." Ingraham said the whole thing was a "cover-up for Obama," to cover for his huge mistake in saying the police had "acted stupidly." . . . . . (Watch Video)

I was "fortunate" enough to get through as a caller on Laura Ingraham's radio show, where she was discussing the birth certificate issue - from the wrong perspective of course.

She talks to Bill O'Reilly.

Talking to Bill O'Reilly - also at the end is a but about the Palin/Letterman controversy.

The San Antonio/Austin Board at Radio-Info.com was rumoring “talk” as early at 10:30 last Thursday morning, and by early Thursday afternoon it pretty much had the schedule of syndicated personalities pegged. Here’s what I think the starting lineup will be at Cox-owned KPWT (106.7) – TRN’s Mancow Muller, early morning. Neal Boortz, syndicated from Cox Radio’s WSB, Atlanta, 8-11am. (Boortz had been on Border Media Partners’ KTSA/550 from 7-9pm, clearing on delay.) Then Talk Radio Network’s Laura Ingraham, 11am-2pm. Clark Howard, also syndicated out of WSB, for 2-5pm. (Clark had been heard locally for just one hour, 9-10pm on KTSA.)...

Laura Ingraham to hold Event(s) for Florida’s Marco Rubio: On her show Thursday, Laura Ingraham promised to hold events in Florida for Senate primary candidate Marco Rubio. Rubio is taking on the more liberal Charlie Crist in the Republican primary. In what looks to be a battle between grass-roots conservatives and the GOP Political class, Ingraham was very impressed with the message Rubio offered on her program and immediately offered to campaign for him against Crist. The Pro-Stimulus Governor/Obama ally Charlie Crist, meanwhile, immediately picked up the endorsement of NRSC Chair Jon Cornyn who earlier in the year endorsed Arlen...

Miss Ingraham is on now.

President Rush Limbaugh. Sen. Laura Ingraham. Some say these radio gods should run for office, for the good of the country.

The Laura Ingraham show is on.

The Laura Ingraham show is on.

The Laura Ingraham show is on now. She has Bill Donahue from the Catholic League for Civil Rights discussing the latest Ron Howard/Tom Hanks anti-Christian epic.

It is obvious that Keith Olbermann and Michael Musto were joking, but the mud-slinging is so base and crude one wonders where MSNBC will draw the line. Michael Musto of the Village Voice rips into Carrie Prejean like a rabid pitbull.

Quid Pro Quo.

On her show this morning, Laura Ingraham discussed Gov. Palin's Indiana Right to Life speech. Later in the show, Laura interviewed documentary filmmaker John Ziegler about his film "Media Malpractice," his recent arrest at the Couric award ceremony, and finally about Gov. Palin. Ziegler affirms that Gov. Palin will not slink away while a dangerously biased media attacks her and her record. She has decided to fight back. Upon hearing this, my Right Honourable Friend from New Jersey paraphrased the words that Lincoln used about Ulysses S. Grant -- "We cannot spare this woman. She fights!" The conservative movement needs...

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!!!

Laura Ingraham is back. I'm glad that the sometimes correct but whiny Tammy Bruce isn't guest hosting today. While Tammy is less obnoxious than the average pro-abortion lesbian feminazi, it does bother me that a supposedly pro-life, pro-marriage devout Catholic like Laura would allow Tammy to be her guest host when she's gone. It would be like Tammy allowing a pro-life Christian to guest host her local talk show to advocating positions on life and the natural family contrary to hers. Why doesn't Laura pick a guest host that agrees with her on these issues?

Talk about a low blow. Filling in for conservative talk-show host Laura Ingraham, Tammy Bruce blasted First Lady Michelle Obama for comments she made during a visit to a Washington D.C. classroom last week. During that visit, the first lady recalled trying to get good grades as neighborhood kids criticized her for "talking like a white girl." In light of those remarks, Bruce made fun of Obama for her use of a "weird, fake accent," much "like Hillary did when talking to black people. What?! What is that?" "That’s what he’s [Barack] married to," Bruce said. "…You know what we’ve...

Conservative pundit Laura Ingraham weighed in on the flap over the weight of Sen. John McCain's daughter - blaming "the Obama attack dogs" for trying to manufacture a feud. "Let the record show I never called Meghan McCain fat - she isn't," Ingrahm said on FoxNews Wednesday night. "It's another left-wing attempt to silence any criticism of the liberal agenda."

<p>MILWAUKEE (AP) -- A federal magistrate Wednesday ordered that a man accused of trying to board a plane with $44,000 in cash and nine blank passports be held without bail.</p> <p>The man, identified by federal authorities as Ousman Sillah, faces charges of possessing fake identification and legitimate identification to be used fraudulently.</p>

From her Wikipedia page (it cannot be linked here for some reason): Ingraham once was engaged to conservative author and fellow Dartmouth alumnus Dinesh D'Souza and has dated former New Jersey Democratic Senator Robert Torricelli [9] as well as MSNBC host Keith Olbermann.[10]

Some good fireworks here.

(CNN) -- Laura Ingraham is calling Meghan McCain a "useful idiot" and a "flavor of the month" — the latest salvo in the war of words between the conservative radio host and the daughter of former Republican presidential candidate John McCain.

Memo to Meghan McCain: Enjoy the media coverage while it lasts, but know you're being used. You are the flavor of the month in left-wing media land because you are a Republican bashing the GOP. Likewise, your dad is most popular among the same people when he is slamming his Republican brethren in full-blown "maverick" fashion. At least he backs up his views with a lifetime of sacrifice and public service. What is Ms. McCain's own political, business, or real-world experience that lends credibility to her argument that the GOP needs to "moderate" (read: abandon its core principles)? Now the...

Here is video of Meghan McCain on The View today where she responded to comments made last week about her by Laura Ingraham. Ingraham criticized McCain for attacking Ann Coulter, and at the end of the segment referred to McCain's weight. McCain is indignant throughout the segment, and of course the "ladies" on The View pile on Laura Ingraham. It would have been better for Ingraham to have not made the weight remark. She has only helped make a martyr out of McCain and has given her more exposure. But Meghan McCain is wrong about the Republican Party needing to...

<p>Last week, Ingraham mocked McCain on her radio show after the daughter of former GOP presidential nominee John McCain urged Republicans to seek compromise with Democrats. Ingraham called McCain “a Valley Girl gone awry” and a “plus-sized model.”</p> <p>McCain, who writes about politics and her personal life for The Daily Beast, went on The View on Monday to fight back.</p>

Meghan McCain responds to Laura Ingraham’s attack on her weight: Why is this topic still a socially accepted prejudice—and why in the world would a woman raise it? BY MEGHAN MCCAINRecently my not-size-0 body has come under fire again by the conservative pundit Laura Ingraham. On her radio show recently, she sarcastically commented that I was “too plus-sized to be a cast member on the television show The Real World” and needled me about my weight with a comment about Barbie's 50th anniversary. Instead of intellectually debating our ideological differences about the future of the Republican Party, Ingraham resorted to...

It’s a question we’ve all been waiting to hear answered – it just took a conservative talk radio host to ask it. In an interview with Republican Sen. Arlen Specter, Pa., talk show host Laura Ingraham asked why he and Sens. Olympia Snowe and Susan Collins are the only three out of 229 Republican members of Congress to support the stimulus. She inquired if it might have had something to do with being invited to the White House by President Barack Obama. “Is it nice to be wined and dined at the White House?” Ingraham asked. “And, you’re treated pretty...

NewsBusters.org - Media Research CenterOn Wednesday’s CBS "Early Show," co-host Harry Smith discussed the ‘Potomac Primaries’ with Democratic Strategist Dee Dee Myers and Republican CBS Political Analyst Nicolle Wallace, a former Bush Administration Communications Director, who said of John McCain’s conservative critics: "The more that we see kind of the crazies like Ann Coulter out attacking John McCain, the better Republicans feel about their chances in the general election." This attack upon conservatives critical of McCain, who include Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Mark Levin, Laura Ingraham, and others, was prompted by Harry Smith asking about Mike Huckabee’s continued support in...

November 7 Syndicated columnist and author Patrick J. Buchanan and radio talk show host Laura Ingraham 

she has a great message for conservatism! For those who can't get her via their local stations, there's a great online site at www.talkstreamlive.com. She's slamming the McCain campaign for their comments to Carl Cameron about Sarah Palin.

Video here. Classic line when she refers to the flag pin, an "accessory" Obama dislikes. Anyone who has pictures of Sarah Palin, Elisabeth Hasselbeck, Laura Ingraham, and other both principled and attractive conservative women, please post them all here. Who can post the most? Let the contest begin.
