ABC's Stephanopoulos ‘helped hatch’ 2009 Dem strategy (being coached as Repub debate host?)

ABC's Stephanopoulos never really left Clinton-land — and it didn’t bother his ABC News bosses....he had daily phone contact with high-powered Democrats at the same time he anchored ABC's “This Week,” soon to host “GMA.” Politico reports Stephanopoulos was in a “round-robin phone chat” w/ Democrat honchos in which political strategy was “quite likely....being hatched”.... Stephanpolous said he "learned a lot." Ex-Clinton staffer, now an ABC spox, Heather Riley, insisted it “wasn’t true then, and it isn’t true now” but acknowledged: “... he talks to his friends once in a while....”

LOL——best one, yet.

[Liz]

OMG—I love that ABC “logo.”

[Travis McGee]

Thanks, please spread them around. I create and pass along memes and cartoons in the hope that they will be seen beyond the FR choir. Most people today don’t read at all. If a message is not presented in an image or a video, they will never see it.

Heather Riley, insisted it “wasn’t true then, and it isn’t true now” but acknowledged: “... he talks to his friends once in a while....”

They lie like rugs.

George Stephanopoulos asks stupid questions about contraception

Romney’s Grilling on Contraception Called a ‘Setup’

During a Republican presidential debate in January, moderator George Stephanopoulos peppered Mitt Romney with questions about contraception that seemed totally out of the blue at the time. But in the wake of President Barack Obama’s move to mandate health insurance companies’ coverage of contraception, the motivation for the ABC newsman’s grilling of Romney has become clear, according to political pundit Dick Morris: It’s part of a plan to convince voters that Republicans will ban contraception.

“Well, it is Dick Morris’ theorem that that was a setup that led to what happened last week.” Stephanopoulos asked Romney: “Do you believe that states have the right to ban contraception, or is that trumped by a constitutional right to privacy?” Romney responded that it was an “unusual topic” to be questioned about, and said he would “completely oppose” any effort to ban contraception. Stephanopoulos repeated his question, and Romney acknowledged he didn’t know if a state had a right to ban contraception but referred to the question as “silly.”

Nice contribution to the thread-—thanks.

[Jane Long]

Agree. One second messaging is required...especially for the low-info crowd. Great job on the Steffy meme, btw.

[conservativejoy]

That sums it up nicely! Thanks!

[Jane Long]

We need that rapper/$$ gif superimposed with Steffy’s face, fanning out the $$.

ABC *News* should fire him, immediately....but, we know they won’t.

"...he talks to his friends once in a while"

[hoosiermama]

How does she know its just once in awhile. She only knows what he told her to say.

Clearly Democrat suck-up boychik Georgio who was a ruthless factotum in the Clinton White House, did not "just happen" to pick debate questions designed to boost Democrats. He was coached by cunning Obama White House conspirators......

Obama’s ACA passed by an historic lock-stepping Dem party-line vote----these religious haters hidden agenda was a scheme to force-feed health insurance companies’ coverage of contraception.

That sure looked like ABC's Stephanpolous reason for grilling Romney....part of Team Obama's collusion w/ the ABC'er to fix the election---to convince voters that evil Republicans would ban contraception.

Georgio's "gotcha" question Mr Romney, about birth control, lasted weeks on the news cycle even though it was not yet an issue anywhere in the US.

That sounds like it came from the (cough) mind of Obama ***-kisser Valerie Jarrett....although who would want to have sex w/ Valerie---protected or unprotected---is beyond me.

Valerie had been coaching hard-left suckups like Georgio to deliver the administration's “talking points” and strategic memes via the debate format....colluding in the effort to dupe America voters.

Valerie Jarrett reportedly dating a Muslim

By Thomas Lifson

Normally, I don’t traffic much in gossip, but the case of Valerie Jarrett is different. She may well be the most powerful woman in America, and almost certainly is the most powerful member of the Obama administration. The adjective “shadowy” definitely applies to this woman who enjoys her power through her relationship to the President, having never been confirmed by Senate hearings. Her title as “Senior Adviser” to the President barely scratches the surface of her real power.

President Obama has time for his 150+ rounds of golf, his extensive television watching, and his expertise on March Madness bracketology because ValJar, by most accounts, is a tireless and fiercely loyal sycophantic gatekeeper, policy adviser, and in essence acting president. She enables Obama to focus on what he does best: fundraising, speechifying, shooting hoops, and partying.

Those who have crossed swords with ValJar, like former Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel and former Press Secretary Robert Gibbs, have found themselves out on their asses. She introduced Mr. and Mrs. Obama to each other, and facilitated young lawyer Obama’s entry into the Chicago machine power structure. In other words, in many respects she is running the country while Obama handles the public face.

So it is worth noting that Jarrett, who was born in Iran (her father was a physician working there), is now reported to be dating Ahmad Rashad, a former NFL star, and a “Quranist” - that is, a Muslim who follows only the Quran, not the hadith - the stories about Mohammed’s life that are also regarded as sacred scripture by nearly all Muslims. Richard Johnson of the New York Post:

Ahmad Rashad, a Pro Bowl wide receiver, has made yet another great catch.

The Minnesota Vikings legend has rebounded from his broken marriage to Sale Johnson - the ex-wife of Jets owner Woody Johnson - and is said to be dating Valerie Jarrett, President Obama’s most trusted senior adviser.

Rashad, a sportscaster and a close friend of Michael Jordan’s, is keeping the romance on the down low.

“They haven’t gone out in public,” one source told me. “They are sneaking around.” (Rashad’s manager did not respond to questions about the relationship, and the White House declined to comment on Jarrett’s personal life.)

At a moment when the United States has caved in to Iran’s nuclear program, the Farsi-speaking, Muslim-dating Jarrett is the most powerful member of an administration led by an absentee president uninterested in the details of his administration’s activities.

But relax, Obama’s pants still have a sharp crease in them.
