This network, I tell you. Yes, they have their moments of clarity; even a blond squirrel finds a nut. But to say that NBC News or MSNBC dont have a political point of view is just ridiculous. We all know it. Well, anyone who isnt a snowflake progressive knows this. Mick Mulvaney, the director of the Office of Budget and Management, surely knows this, with him calling out some of the questions during Sundays Meet the Press broadcast, where he plainly hinted at NBCs slant on the issue. It was something that guest host Andrea Mitchell was not keen about, saying theyre not taking a point of view, merely citing nonpartisan groups. The two were discussing the Republican tax reform package, which Democrats say is a giveaway to the rich. On the allegations of sexual misconduct involving Roy Moore, the Republican Alabama Senate candidate, Mitchell asked Mulvaney if he believed the accusers. Mulvaney noted that he was the OMB director, but that he had no reason to doubt the accusers credibility. Paul Bedard of the Washington Examiner had the transcription. The Media Research Center clipped the exchange.
NBCs Andrea Mitchell Insists I Have No Political Axe to Grind Here
Mick Mulvaney: So I laugh every time I come on networks like this, they accuse us of cutting taxes on the rich. Every time I go on different networks, and you may understand who those are, they accuse us of raising taxes on the rich. So I think it looks depends on how you want to look at it.Andrea Mitchell: Were not taking a political point of view here. We are actually going by nonpartisan groups like the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, all the impact on the exploding deficit which will impact future generations.

Mitchell: Do you believe that the women whove come out against Roy Moore are credible?
Mulvaney: I believe theyre credible. I dont know who to believe. Again, I'm at the Office of Management and Budget
Mitchell: You dont believe them?
Mulvaney: No, I said theyre credible. I dont know who to believe. And I do think, as the president said, that voters should decide.
Mitchell: If theyre credible. Why wouldnt you believe them?
Mulvaney: Andrea, I run the Office of Management and Budget in Washington, D.C. You work for NBC News in Washington, D.C. My guess is weve not spent that much time looking at the specifics of these allegations. Youve arrived at a certain conclusion because of a certain political persuasion. Were simply
Mitchell: Not because of a political persuasion at all. Im -- I am simply asking whether you believe that they are credible. They have been out in public. They have spoken on the record. Some were brought; some stories were brought out by Alabama journalists in the local newspapers down there, not just by the Washington Post. And I have no political axe to grind here other than to ask you whether you believe they are credible.
First, this is laughable. NBC, CBS, or ABC doesnt have a political axe to grind or a certain tilt. Just be honest, folks. ABC News has a former Clinton operative, George Stephanopoulos, as one of the faces for its network. The fact is there is a bias and now we have an administration thats calling it out. Trump supporters, even Republicans who dont even like the man, are probably not opposed to this pushing back, even from the OMB director of all people. Its the reason why Trump wont stop tweeting. He sees it as a direct line of communication to his supporters who see him delivering uppercuts to the news media pervasively. After eight years of Obama, yeahits time to go on offensive a bit. One last thing, its also nice to see other members of the GOP lobbing heavy punches back at Democrats over this tax reform push. Sen. Orrin Hatch wasnt having any of Sen. Sherrod Browns (D-OH) nonsense on how this package is a giveaway to the wealthy; something that Hatch found incredibly offensive and made it knownbig league.
A snowflake is a safe space seeking college student or a millennial who cant hear a truthful statement if it offends any member of a minority. It goes deeper than that but you get the gist.
Why can’t these people answer these questions correctly?
Mitchell: Do you believe that the women whove come out against Roy Moore are credible?
Mulvaney: ’m at the Office of Management and Budget, I have comment one way or the other on a political race in Alabama. That is not within my area of respo
Mitchell: But why can’t you say if you believe that the women whove come out against Roy Moore are credible?
Mulvaney: “Andrea, I am here to talk about tax policy and the budget. We can talk about that or I can leave. I have work to do.”
It’s hard to believe that this old hag is still alive. The shrill, old broad is just bitter because Roy Moore wouldn’t touch her with a 10-foot pole.
I can’t believe that old corpse is still a reporter.
I notice the left never, ever retire and enjoy life. They just pursue their agenda until they meet their eternal fate.
“NBC is hideous.”
That is being too polite.
The msm is dishonest, deceivers, liars, stirring up strife, they have no shame.
The msm is wicked and evil; along with their handlers - democrats and GOPe.
EVIL
Absolute lies!
NO local journalists--just 3 newspapers owned by a leftist national conglomerate and run by a well-known dyke. About as un-Alabamian as you can get. Sunday papers have 10-15 pages of news and the rest are ads. Pathetic.
Agreed.
Ugliest person on TV.
Thanks
All you have to remember is that the Majority of these presstitutes are just Plain EVIL! At least they will have eternity to repent their sins while sitting on their Daddy Lucifer’s knee.
Inside and out.
“And I have no political axe to grind “
Hey Andrea, don’t let that axe hit you where the Good Lord split you!
Love Mulvaney. Smart as a whip.
Whats with these Republican idiots stating I have no reason to doubt the accused. First, they have no reason to believe them. They havent spoken with the accusers or seen any credible documentary evidence to substantiate the claims. Second, they have their head up their own a** if they havent been following the revelations about the serious flaws in the accusers stories. How about There is insufficient evidence at this point for me to make any conclusion about the veracity of these allegations. Roy Moore is entitled to the presumption of innocence and I am not going to speculate on the outcome of any potential investigation.
One fears that if a snowflake hears something that is not PC that they may melt or be permanently emotionally damaged.
And when I say minority I also mean LGBQT and all that Byzantine stuff that if you took it seriously you would be permanently tired in moral knots.
$19 Trillion in debt, but we are going to grill the OMB on “he said, she said?”
Credible but not believable...
Its like shes accusing him of a thoughtcrime.
How dare you not take the side of a woman accusing a public figure of misconduct, even though the public has only known about it a short time in the run up to an election!
