‘Like Teenage Girls At A Bay City Rollers Concert’
FinkelBlog ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 05/11/2009 5:33:11 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

On Morning Joe today, Joe Scarborough nailed the Washington press corps for its sycophantish performance at the White House Correspondents Association dinner this past Saturday night: “like a bunch of teenage girls waiting for a Bay City Rollers concert, waiting to scream at the top of their [lungs].”

Mika Brzezinski, agreeing with Joe, lifted the veil on the goings-on behind the scenes, describing an enraptured TV production crew scrambling to get the most flattering shots of the prez and First Lady.

“Liberals in general think and behave like teenage girls,”

Yes they do...

In the 70’s, I grew up with three sisters:

1) Mid 70’s it was Roller Mania
2) 1977 it was Shaun Cassidy
3) 1978 it was Andy Gibb.

Liberals and teen girls change with whatever way the wind blows and whomever is popular at the moment.

One day soon, owning an Obama shirt will be as embarrassing to a liberal as owning a Leif Garrett tee shirt was to my sisters in the 80’s.

Well, hopefully the enraptured state of the MSM will have a life about as long as the Bay City Rollers career.

I'm not optimistic about that. The media created this monster; they're not going to admit that "The One" aint't all that one-derful any time soon.

Sounds like Peter is more in line with Mark Steyn than his brother Chris.

The media will eventually have their personal story of “Blowback”.

It will hit them like a ton of bricks. It’s coming.

It’s coming in a big way.

Lately, Mika has been far more agreeable than Joe Scarborough.

Vwithin a year we’ll be getting our most unbiased news coverage of the US from the foreign press

Within a year? We already are getting more balanced(but not completely fair)coverage from both Britain and Canada.

Many a truth is said in jest and when the annointed one said “Most of you covered me; all of you voted for me.” one wonders why they laughed instead of sighing a collective “amen”.

And now they are covering for him.
