Glenn Beck-like, I put my head in my hands over the sheer lunacy expressed by the much-disgraced former New York Democratic congressman:
• Earlier in the year, long before the allegations had been made public, Massa had called me with a potentially huge story: Four retired generals — three
On the day Eric Massa resigned from the House, he refunded $112,000 in campaign donations, according to the Federal Election Commission. More than half of those refunds, $62,000, were returned to individual donors, and the rest went to political committees. The biggest refund recipients?

I don’t sneer and point at everything Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) says — she clearly courts such a reaction every day — but Ed Morrissey’s video of Bachmann at an anti-health care reform rally in Minneapolis is pretty amazing for the quantity of smears she packs in. Democrats, she More…

Before Eric Massa appeared on Glenn Beck’s show, there was a short war of words between the Fox News host and blogger/columnist Michelle Malkin. Beck likened Massa to a captured enemy soldier who could be pumped for information; Malkin argued that Massa was a lying opportunist. In the wake More…
I first encountered former Rep. Eric Massa (D-N.Y.) at a 2007 forum on, of all things, the media, at the 2007 Yearly Kos convention. (Starting in 2008, the annual event was renamed Netroots Nation.) Massa portrayed himself as an angry ex-Republican who considered himself part of the liberal blogosphere — More…
John Bresnahan’s story this morning explores the praise former Rep. Eric Massa (D-N.Y.) has been soaking up on the right — accolades from Rush Limbaugh, a spot today on Glenn Beck’s Fox News show. And as Bresnahan hints, the plaudits are coming from right-wing entertainers and media stars More…
