President Barack Obamas endorsement Friday night of building a mosque near Ground Zero has driven the establishment press corps to find nobility in pursuing conviction even in the face of public opposition, not something MSM journalists admired about the previous President, while suddenly becoming very concerned about protecting private property rights all while hailing Obamas great global message. I thought the speech Friday night was a model of political courage, in the sense that he said what he believed knowing that it was going to cost him,

Since he backpeddled on what he said on Friday, what does that make him now? LOL!

I noticed George Will wasn’t there this week. I wonder if that was just for this week or if he’s gone for good.
Too bad for them if Will is gone permanently. That show has an even more dire need for adult supervision under Amanpour than it did under Stephanopoulos.

You beat me to it. That's why he wee wee’d backward the next day.
Courage ?? Give me a break.
Some examples of his courage when he threw Wright under the bus. When he fired agriculture Department queen. When he denied he knew Bill Ayres.When he hid his Birth Certificate.

Heh, heh, heh...
It must suck to be an Obamanite “journalist”. The One says something stupid — they rush in to defend him and prove it’s not stupid — he backs off... they end up holding the stupid sack.
Somehow, I find it hard to be properly sympathetic, though.

These people are completely out of touch with the rest of the country. This panel needs some diversity by adding people out side of Washington and New York. The polls show that around 70% of the country does not want the Mosque near ground zero. The MSM does not get it or they refuse to accept the way things are and hope people will come around to their thinking if they keep repeating this dribble.

Amanpour was born in Iran[2][3][4][5] to her father, Mohammad, an Iranian airline executive and her British mother, Patricia.[6] The Amanpours led a privileged life under the government of the Shah of Iran. She completed her primary education in Iran and at the age of 11, her parents sent her to boarding school in England. She attended and graduated from an all-girls school, New Hall School in Chelmsford, Essex, England. Christiane returned to England not long after the Islamic Revolution began. She stressed that they were not forced to leave but rather when they were returning, Iraq invaded Iran and so they stayed and after a while it just became difficult to return to Iran.[7] - Wiki -

Amanpour makes that show unwatchable, imo. Ergo, I no longer watch it.

The bad news is that no one watches that show...if they did they would be disgusted.

Maybe they’ll put a “Baby Milk Factory” inside the mosque.

Don’t know. My guess, he’s on vacation.
