Levin: ‘Big Mistake’ For FNC To Give Rove Platform to Clear GOP Field for Jeb
Breitbart ^ | 04/07/2015 | Ian Hanchett

Posted on 04/07/2015 5:25:23 PM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

Talk radio host and author of “The Liberty Amendments” Mark Levin argued it is a “big mistake” for the Fox News Channel to allow Karl Rove to use his position with the network to “clear the field” for Jeb Bush on Tuesday.

After a caller said she stopped watching the Fox News Channel because of her frustration with commentators like Juan Williams and Karl Rove, Levin said that while he doesn’t like the liberal commentators on FNC, he understands that as a news channel, they do need to have people from the other side. He added “what bothers me more is these pretend conservatives, who are really on there with an agenda, and so they sit there, they pretend they’re analyzing…that to me is dishonest, it’s flat out dishonest. Everybody knows who Karl Rove is supporting. Everybody knows he’s the invisible hand behind these different organizations. Everybody knows it. At least Juan Williams is an out of the closet left-wing Democrat.”

Much of FNC is cheerleading Rand nutty Paul too.

I’m at a point now where I am so pissed off that I just can’t see the difference between most of the so called republicans who won’t stand up to liberal-tarians and liberals unlike Cruz, Lee ETC.

I’ll probably wind up doing the same thing.

So far he is far out in front of anyone else I’ve seen.

One of my Leftist family members thinks there’s problems with Cruz. Other members are now saying they think he shoots off his mouth without thinking.

I haven’t see one instance that would back either of these perceptions.

It is clear that Fox is in the tank for Bush. It’s so pervasive there you have to assume its company policy

same here. I will vote for Cruz regardless as I’m sick of these RINOs and liberal-tarians saying they are conservatives.

It is company policy. Fox News has been on board The Cheap Labor Express for years. The RNC has been paid to deliver an amnesty candidate and Fox News will facilitate that in any way they can. Watch who they consider “electable”, it will only be candidates who back amnesty. Bush is the preference, but they’ll settle for Rubio or Walker, those are the three who they have already called “electable”.
Cruz is always relegated to “no chance”.

I promised my late father I would vote in every election. To my Dad voting was crucial. He fought in World War II to preserve our rights, freedoms and privileges. Voting is a privilege and unless we continue to vote, we will one day lose that privilege to the tyrants slowly taking over this country.

I used to hold my nose and vote for the anointed candidate. I won't anymore. What I will do is write in a name. I live in a predominantly Democrat region, and last election, nearly every Democrat candidate here ran unopposed. So I wrote in my vote for all the conservatives I could think of.

Wasted vote, some would say. But I fulfilled my promise to my Dad, while not voting for the handpicked candidate, And while others will grouse when they voted for the pre-selected candidate and he turned out to be a dud or worse, I can say I didn't vote for him. Clear conscience.

The only thing worse than the sight of Karl Rove’s face is the sound of him saying “Warshington.”

Fox News so far seems afraid of Cruz but less so of Paul. That’s because almost everyone recognizes Cruz is really really smart and a force to be reckoned with. Plus Paul has made himself a large target because of his waffling, especially with his near incoherent foreign policy.

FNC has no problem with Paul. He has a low, hard ceiling with zero chance of being the nominee.
