I have repeatedly sent complaints through Twitter. Just did so, in fact.
And a sad bit of news: Vaclev Havel, first president of a free Czechoslovakia, has died.
Wallace should put him on the hot seat regarding his comments from 2010. Now, when he needs Conservatives to vote for him, Romney says he'll repeal the whole bill ... but will he really? I don't trust him to repeal it (or trust Wallace to bring up this major flip flop). Another article I saw about Romney sums him up pretty well for me:
As a typical standard-issue Republican, Romney wouldn’t have the heart or the courage to take the fight to the president, but instead would debate around the edges, and lose. (The Stupid Party - Michael Walsh)
Newt on-on-one with Bob Schieffer? Talk about a mismatch...
HOWEVER, I can't wait to see if Barney Frank gets any questions about his close buddy and fellow liberal genius Jon Corzine. Maybe Barney knows where all that MF Global customer money went, even if Jonny doesn't.
It does seem rather strange that no one has figured out why this happens.
I usually give up when it starts and go to Twitter.
Take heart, altura. We don't really know how great their influence. Why has Obie slipped to 43% re-elect ? What caused the largest Dem drubbing in 70 years in the '10 mid-terms ? It's certainly not because old media turned on dems and started supporting pubbies. I'll give 'em minmal affect, and it's weakening every cycle.
I'll grant you some cracks are beginning to appear, but Chrissy Mathews' show is one of the least watched cable shows, so virtually no one saw his recent anti-Obie heresy.
Romney the total establishment guy.
“Does anyone really want to see Barney Frank again as long as they live??
No
I expect Schieffer to be nastier than usual, don’t you?
Elect another batch of TPartiers and it won't matter which R we elect. WE will lead. More focus on congress and the senate in particular, please.
Dude! Weihnachten im Deutschland?!? Mit bier and gleuwien?
Gosh, you are LUCKY!!! I miss it. After you’re old and retired, you look back fondly on these times.
The reason they do this, Altura, is because they ARE liberals.
It used to be, back in the olden days of the last century, that journalists were taught that the most important thing of there profession was 4 W's and H: Who What, Where, When and How.
Since the Hippies of the Sixties took over as professors, they aren't taught this anymore. They are taught that the journalist is an activist, and must seek out the "truth". The journalist has a responsibility to push the "truth", in that every story should promote social justice (which is a Left Wing ideal that in itself always leads to injustice for the individual).
So you see, they're part and parcel with the democrats, the greens, the anti-war crowd, the anti-Americans, the pro-minority (and by iteself, nothing wrong with minorities UNLESS you have to tear down the majority to promote them, which they do), the homosexuals, the socialists ,communists and arnachists.
In other words, Liberals.
THanks for the thread AB! (Sure would like one of those hats you catholic guys wear,they really rock!)
Looks like its time for DBM candidate destruction. Should be interesting. Poor Boehner no matter what he does its never quite good enough.He needs a good injection of Reaganesque to cure all that’s wrong with him.
Starts Chris Wallace: (Evasive coward) "Mitt Romney sits down
for his first Sunday show in two years".
No mention made of why he was hiding.
Chris Wallace begins by calling the Speaker "zany" and
"crazy", "lacks temperament", and other demeaning
things for Romney so Romney need not say a word.
Wallace speaks entirely for Romney twice.
Then RomneyBOT Wallace lauds Romney extensively
"won endorsement" of Haley says Wallace.
Romney then begins his attacks with Wallace Pimp as his wingman.
Just turned on the show and the first words out of Wallace’s mouth “he’s zany, he’s undiscplined...what’s your argument against Newt?” And Romney takes the bait instead of saying...I’m not here to argue against Newt, I’m here to argue against Obama.
Mitt has a lot of nerve attacking Newt on cap-and-trade, which he just did on FNS. And no follow-up from Wallace on Romney’s flip-flops on AGW.
Mitt goes no tie and less grease. Back to class warfare helping the middle class while punishing the rich.
Merry Christmas
