Here is video of Liz Cheney on "This Week" saying that the lack of a decision on Afghanistan is "completely inexcusable." Liz Cheney said "I think it's just completely inexcusable that we've now had month after month of photo-op out of the White House and no decision." She said "the President is very fond of saying, "before I commit troops I'm going to think very carefully about it," somebody in the White House needs to remind him he's already committed troops. We've got American men and women in Afghanistan today." (Video)

McCain standard bearer and “conservative” columnist David Brooks launched his own salvo at actual conservative Sarah Palin on ABC’s This Week, joining other bitter RINOs who have attacked the former Alaska governor in recent days. If I may channel Chandler Bing for a moment: “Can he be any more elitist?” Perhaps Brooks hasn’t seen the Amazon sales lists, the thousands attending her book signings, or, for that matter, the book sales list published by his own worthless rag. Remember, folks, this is the same guy who talked about how great John McCain was as a candidate and the very same...

Here is video of David Brooks on ABC's "This Week" saying Sarah Palin is a "joke" and calling her a "potential talk show host." Brooks said "I just can't take her seriously" and said "the idea that this potential talk show host is considered seriously for the Republican nomination, believe me it will never happen." (Video)

Here is video of ABC's "This Week" discussing the White House's war with Fox News Channel. Laura Ingraham pointed out that the White House seems more "impassioned" about Fox News than they are about terrorists....(Video)

If one is looking for the truth, the whole truth, nothing but the truth, so help you God, then the political arena is not the prime location to find it. Politicians rank somewhere below used car salesmen and just a fraction above the French on the universal scale of truthfulness.   While many say Presidents rise above crass politics, they have lied. George H. Bush's "Read my lips" came back to bite him and bite him hard. Even some of the greatest statesmen ever have lied. Winston Churchill once mused that the truth was so important that it should always...

As President Obama tours the country advancing his universal healthcare initiative, there are some dirty little secrets that he and his minions in the media don't want Americans to know. On Sunday, George Will during the panel discussion on ABC's "This Week," exposed some inconvenient truths about this controverial subject that would likely change much of the public's view if they were regularly made aware of them. After host George Stephanopoulos opened the roundtable segment, Will marvelously cut to the chase: GEORGE WILL, ABC NEWS ANALYST: [T] this is now a single issue argument about whether or not we’re on...

ABC's Sam Donaldson let a little of his inner-conspiracy theorist out this morning on This Week with George Stephanopoulos. In a discussion of President Barack Obama's lessening the sanctions on Fidel Castro's Cuba, Donaldson began his analysis with one of a number a Kennedy-Truther notions that have been knocking around ever since President John F. Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas, Texas on November 22, 1963.... Another wild card in this crazy deck was Cuba's El Presidente, Castro. The theory being that Castro was upset with JFK's woefully planned and executed Bay of Pigs attempt at ending his nascent dictatorship, and...

During our exclusive interview with Michael Steele, the newly elected Republican National Committee chairman, Steele lashed out at yesterday's Washington Post article. The Post reported Steele's 2006 Senate campaign finance chairman has told federal prosecutors that Steele arranged for his 2006 Senate campaign to pay a defunct company run by his sister for services that were never rendered. "It's not true," Steele told me on "This Week" Sunday. "Those allegations were leveled by a convicted felon who was trying to get a reduced sentence on his conviction," Steele said. "The reality of it is that the US attorney, as well...

Here is video of President-elect Barack Obama's extensive interview today on This Week with George Stephanopoulos. Among other things, Obama said Gitmo will likely NOT be closed in the first 100 days of his administration, extraordinary means of interrogation will not be allowed in his administration, and all Americans will have to sacrifice for the greater good. The video is below in three parts . . . . (watch video)

"I think people make a judgment by what we do and what we don't do. He certainly found time to do other things." -- John McCain John McCain ABC's "This Week" July 27, 2008 ABC's George Stephanopoulos: "There's also been a flap about Senator Obama's decision in Germany not to visit the troops at Landstuhl. He now says that, based on what he was hearing from the Pentagon, there was no way that wouldn't be seen as a political trip, which is why he decided not to go. Do you accept that explanation?"

WASHINGTON - The top Republican on the Senate committee investigating Attorney General Alberto Gonzales said Sunday he believes Gonzales could step down before a no-confidence vote sought this week by Senate Democrats. Gonzales failed to draw a public statement of support from Senate GOP leader Mitch McConnell (news, bio, voting record). Asked whether Gonzales effectively can lead the Justice Department, McConnell said "that's for the president to decide." The senator suggested there may be several resolutions introduced to dilute a no-confidence vote. "In the Senate, nobody gets a clear shot," said McConnell, R-Ky. Yet Pennsylvania Sen. Arlen Specter (news, bio,...
