UPDATE: Brave liberal trolls gallantly commenting from their anonymous hidey-holes are still making statements that this story is made up.

Dateline Portland Oregon, November 16, 2012: It’s as if his trist with Beau Breedlove, lying to his constituents to cover it up, and presiding over Occupy Portland‘s $2M+ violent destruction of the downtown area wasn’t enough. Finishing up his tour as Mayor, Sam Adams has apparently decided that rubbing elbows with …

On November 3rd, the Oregon Tea Party Freedom Bus brought volunteers to the offices of The Register-Guard in Eugene, bringing attention to the mainstream media’s dereliction of duty by refusing to report on this administration’s scandalous handling of the terrorist attack in Benghazi, Libya, just before a major election where …
Despite the fact that there have been at least two stories somewhat critical of Obama in recent weeks, some still cling bitterly to their mantra that the liberal media is in the tank for Barky. As it happens, CBS hasn’t been especially successful at contributing to the effort to dispel …

As we’ve seen throughout this nation’s history, the vast majority of bigotry and institutional racism comes from the American Left, not the Right. Whether it’s Jim Crow Laws, the KKK, eugenics or the defense of slavery, the Democrats and the Far Left have a rich historical tapestry spun with the …
Portland’s fire chief takes things very seriously, and in light of the appalling statistics associated with fire-dancers in the city (zero major injuries, zero deaths, zero accidents) she’s taking a tough stance. She’s issued an order banning such practices unless spectators are kept at least 25 feet away from the performers. Although …
Over the weekend, local media swooned with joy over the news that Barky was ”jump-starting” the long-stalled “Columbia River Crossing” (the proposed new I-5 bridge). Governor Retread and Governor (“Look! We found some more ballots!”) Gregoire issued a joint press release, breathlessly touting the President’s pre-election support while repeating classic mythology: …
Naturally, the team of crack journalists at The Zero got it wrong: A sewage spill closed off a portion of Fanno Creek Trail in Southwest Portland Friday night.

Why wouldn’t you believe? In yet another example of journalistic exceptionalism, a story yesterday from Phoenix, Arizona: PHOENIX (AP) – An 84-year-old cotton gin in Buckeye that’s a symbol of the town’s farming heritage is slated for demolition. The Town Council voted earlier this month to spend up to $70,000 to …
Every once in a while, the paper of record here in Oregon comes up with an interesting article that puts the hood up on our state government and gives it a going over. Granted, a regular maintenance plan should include far more frequent tune ups and oil changes, but when …
In an unusual move for the folks at The Zero, they published an editorial this morning that was surprisingly positive in its portrayal of Republican candidate for Secretary of State Knute Buehler’s proposal to audit municipalities and agencies most at risk due to increasing PERS payment requirements, in hopes of elevating awareness of …
Knute Buehler is a Republican running for statewide office in Oregon. Therefore, whatever coverage he receives from the newspaper of record is typically scant. The Oregonian has a long, rich history of liberal bias, and yesterday’s story about Dr. Buehler is no exception. In a news article about a press …
