Mike Pence tells cocky CBS that people are tired of the media’s willful ignorance [trunc]

Trump’s running mate observed on CBS News’ “Face the Nation” Sunday that while Trump apologized for his 11-year-old remarks, but former President “Bill Clinton didn’t just talk about doing things, he did them.”
.
.
.
“People are getting awful tired of this two-on-one fight with many of you in the national media doing half of Hillary Clinton’s work for her every day,” Pence said.

When Pence is interviewed by one of the alphabet media, he should open the interview with his own question...he should ask, “Are you afraid for your job if you don’t actively show bias toward Hillary Clinton?? Or are you really a Clinton supporter, yourself?”

“doing half of Hillary Clinton’s work”

I’d say 99%.

I love the way Trump's organization keeps changing it up on the media.

For a few weeks it was Kellyanne Conway carrying the load , then Rudy G. and Dr Carson, and now it's Pence and Gingrich .

Soon it will be time for Kellyanne make a comeback after the debate

Clinton has Robby Mook and who else?

After wikileaks, how many top shelf Democrats are going to trot out to the Clinton's Sewer and ruin their professional reps defending the Clinton's never ending, indefensible stinking slimefest.

You know, a few weeks ago I might have disagreed with you, especially given his great job at the debate with Kaine.

However ...this morning I was yelling at the TV as I was watching his rally live on Rightside Broadcasting youtube feed. His quiet demaeanor ain't gonna cut it right now. We're in a bare-knuckles battle now. Winner take all!

We need HIGH energy balls to the wall. Its no longer about Pence being Trump's kinder, gentler alter ego. Its about winning this battle. Trump's kids all seem to have gotten the memo, but Pence seems a little worried about his reputation right now. Tell me I'm wrong. In fact, I want to be wrong, but if today's tone is any indication, Pence ain't gonna do us much good over the next three weeks.

Make no mistake, I am a Christian, and I GREATLY admire Pence's faith and his unashamed love of God. We just need to have him put on the sword as he goes into battle, trusting the LORD for the victory.

"media’s willful ignorance"

It's not ignorance - they are paid political mouthpieces.

I`m tired of these weak kneed defenses of Trump that people like Pence are offering because they concede that what Trump said was deplorable. What did he actually say? First off, the context was that it was a private conversation. Secondly, he never talked about assault. That false meme was created from the start in order to give credibility to the fake charges of groping that were pre-planned to immediately follow.

The basic point Trump was trying to make was that when you reach a certain level of wealth and fame, some women who would have previously had nothing to do with you are more than happy to let you have your way with them. He didn`t even claimed to have grabbed anyone in the way he described. He was just using hyperbole.

Remember during the primaries when he talked about how he was doing so well in the polls that he could start shooting in the streets and it wouldn`t hurt him? Same kind of thing. The media went apoplectic then, but we all understood he was being humorous.

In my opinion, the word that most accurately describes Trump`s comments is `distasteful`. I believe that to be an accurate description. I found them distasteful, and I`m a heterosexual male. I don`t like to talk that way, but I certainly know guys who use that manner of speak. And If I think hard enough, I could probably find a few examples where I spoke this way when I was younger.

Distasteful? Absolutely. But that`s about it. Anyone describing them as deplorable, horrific, or some such description is a concern troll IMO.

Pence did a great job... and the weasel media elite seemed sheepish to ask him questions, because he was being shown to be a toady of the clinton campaign.

Too bad he didn’t call it what it really is: malicious intellectual dishonesty.
