Demo Rep Takes Cheap Shot at Fox News; Fox Anchor Doesn't Let Him Get Away With It - Video
Freedom's Lighthouse ^ | October 25, 2009 | Michael

Posted on 10/25/2009 4:47:08 PM PDT by Federalist Patriot

Here is video of Democratic New Jersey Rep Rob Andrews taking a cheap shot at Fox News while on Fox News.

Andrews asked "could we have just a minute of fair and balance just as an exception here?"

Fox News anchor Gregg Jarrett then pointed out that he had just asked a "very tough question" to Republican Congresswoman Marsha Blackburn earlier in the segment. Jarrett said "that's a cheap shot and I'm not going to put up with it here." He then ended the segment.(Video)

I saw that segment. I thought Gregg did a great job. Democrats can’t discuss the issues like adults, instead they behave like children, either smearing someone or calling them names. That is the Democrat way of handling things because they have NOTHING.

This afternoon an ol'gal from the local Democrat machine stopped by to encourage me to vote for Deeds for Governor, and to support Obamacare.

I told her, "well, you and I differ on this. Just want you to know I prefer that you die early because, as it turns out, I'm a good Republican" ~ she looked startled ~ so I added "Your fat snotty little Congresscritter down in Florida said we Republicans have a health care plan that calls for you to die, so do it ~ he ought to know, right?"

She tried to hand me the Deeds brochure ~ I already had several ~ so I pushed her hand away (very stupid of her to allow "contact").

To top off this negative event, which I intended to cause great anxiety on her part, I then told her, "You people should be out there every day DENOUNCING that Democrat Congresscritter in Florida. Then, you should grab him, beat him, and tear his limbs off. Finally, once you've got him in pieces you should toss his parts into the fields for the wild dogs to eat. Then we can talk about Deeds."

Nothing like hijacking a thread!

Since she still didn't look like she was going to leave, I stepped back into the door and closed it with a bang.

Good golly, do I hate modern day Democrat slugs and perverts ~ just keep them away from my door!

I believe that Andrews feigned boredom to try to imply that the entire conversation was pointless and stupid because there is no ‘good’ response for Dem to give to such questions. WHen the anchor didn’t take the ‘bored response from one far superior’ act, then the Dem had to go for the obligatory insult - gotta end the questioning and/or tar the questioner ASAP. Oh and he has to have the last word with the ‘good for you -don’t put up with it’, also delivered as if he is light years above (superior to) the entire conversation, not to mention the other participants.

How can anyone with a brain compare car insurance with health insurance? Are all Democrats that stupid?

Did Andrews say Art I Sec 8 is a federal police power? That’s what I heard him say.

If so, then he’s pitching a war.

My goodness the contempt for the others in on the interview that is spewing out of Andrew’s mouth almost comes through the computer screen and smacks you in the face.

Last night Lanny Davis said that Huckabee’s opinions were “one sided” LOL

The Huckster pointed out that they were supposed to be one sided because they were opinions.

I saw then when this happened on the tv screen at the gym. People look so small when they try this tactic. Just answer the question and move on.

>> Are all Democrats that stupid?

Actually, the majority of ‘Rats are deviant personalities. Sociopathic or psychopathic. Bright, maybe, but devious, dishonest, and manipulative for sure. They’ll say ANYTHING.

The ones that don’t fall into THAT category are stupid.

I believe they think WE are that stupid. It’s like they don’t think they even have to try hard to get us to believe preposterous things. They think we are home to many preposterous ideas because they don’t share the same views (e.g., they can’t understand why patriotism animates us)
I am guessing that they think they can just throw absurd claims our way, with little effort expended at concealing the absurdity, and expect us to just gobble it up. (Note the jealous way they keep accusing us of ‘gobbling up’ talk radio?)
I suppose the degree to which Dems underestimate virtually everyone on the other side of the aisle from them may prove that they are stupid but I think it is more often narcissism; they ‘make the world’ the way they want it to be in their minds and then abuse anyone who who can’t contort reality to match the Dem emotional view of the world.

Dems have had days to come up with an answer-the do not have an answer. Ergo a cheapshot to deflect attention

A word of warning. That git is from NJ. The state with one of the highest car insurance rates in the entire country.

With auto insurance you choose to own or drive an automobile regulated by a state. With health insurance under a federal man The date you simply live. The comparison is beyond weak.

That should read: With auto insurance you choose to own or drive an automobile regulated by a state. With health insurance under a federal mandate you simply live. The comparison is beyond weak.
