Somebody’s mucking around with Sharyl Attkisson’s computers?
By: Moe Lane (Diary) | May 21st at 11:30 AM |
Well. Isn’t this a thing: Sharyl Attkisson, the Emmy-award winning CBS News investigative reporter, says that her personal and work computers have been compromised and are under investigation. “I can confirm that an intrusion of my computers has been under some investigation on my end for some months but I’m not prepared to make an allegation against a specific entity today as I’ve been patient and | Read More »
Tech at Night: I don’t see how MFA passes the House with this rhetoric. Cybersecurity waffling by Team Obama.
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | May 7th at 12:00 AM |

Even as I’ve said the bill is a good idea, Senate conservatives overwhelmingly voted against the Internet Sales Tax. The whole Tea Party era gang is there in the NAY column. It’s easy to see why too: guys like Mike Enzi are coming out and saying their purpose for the bill is to pick winners and losers in the marketplace. I can’t see this passing the House with the cloud of toxic rhetoric around it.
As Team Obama wavers between a bureaucrat and an actual expert for its DHS Cybersecurity head, insecure accounts are getting hammered by foreign attackers. Use good passwords. Never give the actual answers to ‘security questions.’ Keep software updated. And don’t approve random “Who unfollowed me/How much time am I wasting/Which President am I” Twitter apps!

Newt up, everyone else down in the Cain fallout
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | November 11th at 04:30 PM |
When I write about the polling, I hesitate to say more than I have to about the events going on that drive the numbers. I risk introducing unnecessary bias due to mixing the math with my own observations. But the Herman Cain harassment story is the story right now. Two new pre-debate polls are out. Cain is down further, Rick Perry is back down after | Read More »
Analyzing the top three as two more polls boost Cain
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | October 5th at 02:00 PM |
Two more polls are out that absolutely confirm Cain is a serious force in the Republican Presidential race right now. Quinnipiac and CBS leave no more doubt, as the last four polls have all put Herman Cain at 17%, right up alongside Rick Perry and Mitt Romney. I’m going to try to break down these numbers get a good snapshot of this Cain moment.
Questionable CBS Debt Ceiling poll shows odd shifts
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | July 19th at 11:00 AM |
Yesterday CBS put out a poll on the debt ceiling. As with most issue polling in the heat of debate, everyone’s eager to hype the poll or to discredit it, depending on results. I even get asked to join in. I’m skeptical of all issue polling to begin with, I tend to dismiss the polls entirely. But this poll has a serious weighting problem, and | Read More »
Tech at Night: The online Hamas (Lulzsec) and Fatah (Anonymous) join up, Azerbaijanis finance spam, Soros agenda trumps gay agenda
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | June 20th at 11:45 PM |
I’ve been treating Lulzsec, one of the online gangs attacking websites including the CIA’s, as an offshoot of 4chan and Anonymous. So I’m not surprised to find out that Lulzsec and Anonymous are joining up to attack the US Government. It’s like Hamas and Fatah merging; nobody is surprised. But attacking the government? Handcuffs hurt, boys. It’ll be fun when y’all find that out. It’ll | Read More »

Tech at Night: FCC, Indecency, Google, Free Press
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | July 14th at 10:43 PM |
Good evening. I’ll get started on tonight’s overview right away by taking a look at Free Press, and some new information pertaining to that neo-Marxist organization dug up by Big Government. Specifically, when co-founder Robert McChesney isn’t dreaming of a total government takeover of all the media in America, creating a “media reform” of single-payer, state-controlled news nationwide, he’s defending Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chavez. Why? | Read More »

Today in Washington – June 8, 2010
By: Brian Darling (Diary) | June 8th at 06:30 AM |
Last month, Senator Pat Roberts (R-KS) called President Obama “thin skinned,” because of the President’s intolerance of criticism. Trait came out in an interview with the Today Show interview posted on Real Clear Politics yesterday: I was down there a month ago, before most of these talking heads were even paying attention to the Gulf. A month ago I was meeting with fishermen down there, | Read More »
