Tonight's panel took a look at the disruptions at various 'town hall' meetings. Mort and Charles both through the blame at Rush Limbaugh and said he was responsible for the yelling matches at these events.
What a total lack of understanding! None of the 'disruptions' occurred until Obama called on SEIU to HIT BACK HARDER!
It doesn't take a genius to realize that the source of the problems is SEIU and their thuggery.
I really believe Charles needs to wander outside of the I95 and see what is really happening.
Very dissapointing analysis on their parts.
If Rush Limbaugh is behind the yelling at these townhall gatherings, then Walter Cronkite was behind the hippie radicals’ torching the armories during the Vietnam war.
Andrew Wilkow is an up and coming star. He pulls no punches and does not back down.
I wrote to Brett tonight and said that Charles was drinking the Koolaid. O’reilly is on saying the Dems are making a mistake demonizing the people at the Town Hall meetings. Calls tham ordinary people. Go figure.
This is the new norm for him.
Mort was frigging ridiculous comparing the town hall people to Code Pink disrupting Senate hearings!
I have to say I was shocked by Charles’ analysis. It would seem the Dems are winning the spin war inside the beltway anyway as these guys have fallen for the “Rush-inspired angry mob” propaganda.
Krauthammer is very intelligent, but sometimes I think he doesn’t have a lick of common sense. This is one of those times.

That’s what you get when you take the State-Run Media at their word in “reporting the news”.
With Kondracke, this is expected. But Krauthammer? Very disappointing.
Hmm wassup with the double post, didn’t even spaz the clicker.
Who is Andrew Wilco?
Some one should tell Dr. Krauthamer under Barry care, he is a worthless eater, and should be dead.
The hysterical shouting isn’t doing anyone any favors. If people would stick to the facts, ask the questions that produce embarrassment due to the lack of answers and demand some accountability the movement would do a lot better than the Hitler crap. Extremists can be dismissed, rational people presenting facts and pointing out the mathematical flaws simply cannot be.
Yes. I saw it too. Definetly a neg. panel tonite on the “mob” ironically on other stations, Lou Dobbs, for example was very hard on Bam Bam and Nancy. Go figure. We do live in Bizzarro World.
Who do they blame for the SEIU violence?
If you LISTEN carefully to what he said, he was right. It’s ok for the townhalls to be raucous for awhile to garner attention..but now, it IS turning people against the anti-Obamcare crowd.
He is right, have the demosntrations OUTSIDE and behave approriately inside the rooms. there is only so much to be gained from the yelling down of the Congresscritters..the anger has been demonstrated and still can outside..but no one even HEARS the questions the protestors are asking.
As for Rush riling up the townhall people, he is right. But THAT is Rush’s job, to inspire and agitate.
I think charles could have presented his points differently and not everyone would miss his points. He didn’t this time, but I agree with his viewpoint.
Flame away.
Did someone slip something in to his drink?
I like Charles but he’d be giving his analysis on TV while the USA burned. Some can’t think outside of the beltway.
I agree. He seemed to make allowances for Obama’s socialist plans during the presidential campaign and is continuing to listen to the left on some issues. I turned it off tonight. Anyone who surf's the Internet knows it's the other side that is shouting down the conservative protesters and in some cases using violence against the protesters.
Very seldom listen to this program anymore.
I believe he was one of the “supposedly conservative” reporters invited to the dinner with Obama about the time of the inauguration.
He's also been negative on Palin’s experience, yet gave Obama a pass on his complete lack of experience. Palin has executive experience. which Obama doesn't have, and she has plenty of common sense.
