OK. Let me see if I get this correct.
David Brock was a conservative, but Hillary turned him into a gay democrat(put your hand on your hip, and open your lip), and he wore kneepads for Podesta and Soros, working for CAP. (communists america program)
Now, he and hillary created MM to help ‘produce’ the presidency.
Could it be that spending quality time with hillary turns men gay?
“Uh, uh, no. I think...”
That is not a flat denial. You have to think in Clinton terms. “Think” is the wiggle word. When you start a sentence with “I think,” you can finish it with anything you want. It certainly doesn’t have to be true.
Given hard evidence refuting the statement, the liar can just say his recollections were incorrect.
I can't stop laughing!!! Great comments :-)

“Leftist think tank run by Hillary Clinton and former Clinton chief of staff John Podesta
Helped launch Media Matters for America
The Center for American Progress (CAP) describes itself as “a nonpartisan research and educational institute” aimed at “developing a long-term vision of a progressive America” and “providing a forum to generate new progressive ideas and policy proposals.”
Robert Dreyfuss reports in the March 1, 2004 edition of The Nation: “The idea for the Center began with discussions in 2002 between [Morton] Halperin and George Soros, the billionaire investor. Halperin, who heads the office of Soros’ Open Society Institute, brought [former Clinton chief of staff John] Podesta into the discussion, and beginning in late 2002 Halperin and Podesta circulated a series of papers to funders.”
Soros and Halperin recruited Harold Ickes — chief fundraiser and former deputy chief of staff for the Clinton White House — to help organize the Center. It was launched on July 7, 2003 as the American Majority Institute. The name was changed to Center for American Progress (CAP) on September 1, 2003. The official purpose of the Center was to provide the left with something it supposedly lacked — a think tank of its own.
Regarding the new think tank proposed by Soros and Halperin, Hillary Clinton told Matt Bai of The New York Times Magazine on October 12, 2003, “We need some new intellectual capital. There has to be some thought given as to how we build the 21st-century policies that reflect the Democrat Party’s values.” She later told The Nation’s Robert Dreyfuss, “We’ve had the challenge of filling a void on our side of the ledger for a long time, while the other side created an infrastructure that has come to dominate political discourse. The Center is a welcome effort to fill that void.”
Persistent press leaks confirm that Hillary Clinton, and not Podesta, is ultimately in charge of CAP. “It’s the official Hillary Clinton think tank,” an inside source confided to Christian Bourge of United Press International. Robert Dreyfuss notes in The Nation, “In looking at Podesta’s center, there’s no escaping the imprint of the Clintons. It’s not completely wrong to see it as a shadow government, a kind of Clinton White-House-in-exile — or a White House staff in readiness for President Hillary Clinton.” Dreyfuss notes the abundance of Clintonites on the Center’s staff, among them Clinton’s national security speechwriter Robert Boorstin; Democratic Leadership Council staffer and former head of Clinton’s National Economic Council Gene Sperling; former senior advisor to Clinton’s Office of Management and Budget Matt Miller; and others.
In addition to the aforementioned individuals, CAP’s key personnel also includes Director of Media Strategy Debbie Berger, daughter of Clinton national security chief Sandy Berger; Sarah Rosen Wartell, who serves as Senior Vice President, Chief Operating Officer, and General Counsel; Mark David Agrast, Senior Vice President for Domestic Policy; and Robert O. Boorstin, Senior Vice President for National Security and International Policy.
One of CAP’s primary missions is to carry out “rapid response” to what it calls conservative “attacks” in the media. To this end, CAP maintains more than a dozen spokespeople ready to appear on short notice on national talk shows to debate or respond to conservative commentators. Among CAP’s expert commentators are its own President, John Podesta; Eric Alterman, who claims expertise on the subject of media; and CAP Senior Vice President Morton Halperin, who offers to speak on national security.
On May 3, 2004, CAP helped to launch David Brock’s Media Matters for America - which claims to serve as a “watchdog” organization monitoring “rightwing” media for ethics and accuracy. According to The New York Times, Brock conferred with Hillary Clinton, Senator Tom Daschle, and former Vice President Al Gore about Media Matters before embarking on the project. “Mr. Brock’s project was developed with help from the newly formed Center for American Progress,” notes the Times, and John Podesta “introduced [Brock] to potential donors.”
CAP posts daily “Talking Points” to guide the likeminded in their disputes with conservatives. The organization has also established an American Progress Action Fund as a “sister advocacy organization” that “transforms progressive ideas into policy through rapid response communications, legislative action, grassroots organizing and advocacy, and partnerships with other progressive leaders throughout the country and the world.”
The March 2004 Foundation Watch newsletter of the Capital Research Center reports that CAP raised $13 million in 2003. Part of that money came from George Soros, who had pledged $3 million, to be paid in $1 million increments over three years. Part came from Herbert and Marion Sandler, co-CEOs of the Oakland, California savings and loan holding company Golden West Financial Corporation (S&L).
Other recent donors to CAP include the Rockefeller Family Fund; the Irving Harris Foundation, the Philip Murphy Foundation, the New York Community Trust, the Overbrook Foundation, the Peninsula Foundation, the Robert E. Rubin Foundation, the San Francisco Foundation, the Bauman Family Foundation, the Nathan Cummings Foundation, the Joyce Foundation, the Open Society Institute, and the Robert and Irene Schwartz Foundation.”
Good post Phil!
NAILED her! ...again!
Good JOB!

“In May 2004, Brock announced the creation of Media Matters, a political rapid-response website for the Democrats’ Shadow Party operation. George Soros and former Clinton chief-of-staff John Podesta helped Brock raise $2 million for the venture.”,,,,,
“In February 2005, in the course of giving a talk to interns at the Center for American Progress run by John Podesta, Brock stated: “We have seen the mainstream media increasingly accommodating conservatism and this is not an accident. This is the result of coordinated and financed effort by the right wing to pressure, push and bully the media to do that.” ,,,,,,

You can’t beat early bird Byron York for “catching” worms. In the following 2004 article he’s already connected the George Soros dots between Media Matters, Hillary Clinton, John Podesta, and David Brock.
What interest me in all this is how former Clinton official John Podesta has managed to be unmentioned, much less acknowledged, as the Hillary link between Media Matters and the attacks now being made on the conservative media. Read all about it:

Caught in the act.
Is it not interesting How Bill Oreilly is missing this part of this story, the Hillary connection? He keeps referring to George Soros but ignores Hillarys confessed role in the start of Media Matters and the other left wing think tank.
This is a connection that needs to be SHOUTED everyday ,she has exposed herself as the Goebbels and Himler of our time ,head propoganda minister!
View the left-wing propaganda site to see what Hillary has in store for us.
I believe (and someone correct me if I am wrong) that during the segment with Dennis Miller, Dennis said that MM is Hillary and Bill said—whoa, whoa, we don’t know that but we are verifying it now. I hope Bill gets his verification soon—and hears the clip of Mrs. C. actually saying that she started MM—and then shouts it from the rooftops.
“Media Matters” and “Center for American Progress” are simply front groups for hard left socialists like Hillary and they’re supported by George Soros.
Rush playing the clips now...
Rush playing the clips now...
Thanks, Miss Didi: I did happen to hear it — very nice!
