Norah O’Donnell is not a journalist. She’s just trash.

I’m glad to see him use this clarification and correcting her. I’ve been saying this to the libs for a long time now and it always gets a rise outta them.

I just got out my MSM style guide and it says that tax cuts should be labeled tax increases when they are implemented by Republicans and tax increases should be labeled tax cuts when they are implemented by Democrats. I hope that clears up any confusion on the subject.

I saw that creep Nora O’Donnell snicker at Paul Ryan.....I only tuned in near the end of the so-called interview.

She said, “Come on, Congressman!” as she laughed at Paul Ryan’s comments.

I can’t stand Nora O’Donnell. I yelled at the TV, “Would you ever say ‘Come on!’ to a democrat member of Congress?”
And then I yelled some sentences at the TV that I won’t repeat here.....it would make a Marine blush!

“Sometimes it is best to remain silent and thought a fool......”
Do we expect anything other than idiocy from the MSM?

Do they have one for those graphs that show Obama has increased federal spending by less than even Reagan? I need a guide, or maybe a blow to the head with a blunt object for those to make sense to me.

Interesting.

The male “host” decided to interrupt Ryan immediately after he successfully embarrassed the female host and was explaining in lucid fashion the true nature of the current tax situation.

He might as well have held up a sign that said “Your time is up because you’re starting to make too much sense.”

You can tell Ryan was frustrated. He’s frustrated because raising taxes in this economy will bring the economy to a screeching halt. Corporations have become much more efficient, benefits have been slashed and workers have shouldered a heavier burden to compensate.

Ryan is a brilliant guy, but needs work on his presentation skills. Among other things, he needs to learn to slow down.

Ryan made perfect logical sense and Nora was wrong. I'm afraid, however, that it didn't come across like that to the average listener. Ryan sounded like a fast-talking double-talker and Nora played him devilishly well with her disdainful interjection. I think that she was prepped to do this to Ryan, exploiting his communication weak spot. Ryan was also getting tangled in his own words, which should not happen.

Ryan is talking to people who believe that asking for a slower rate of increased spending is cutting spending. It’s tough to argue with morons.

Of course Ryan is correct that if taxes go up it is in fact a tax increase.

If O'Donnell were to be correct she would need to call them the Obama tax cuts as he is responsible for the rates as they currently exist since he signed it last year.

I saw this snarky rat b*tch try to come to the aid of Charlie Rose when he was failing to make any headway. She didn't come off any better.

Well, in Democrat doublespeak, if you fail to implement a proposed tax increase, that’s a tax cut. You’re taking money away from the helpless 50% of our population who don’t pay taxes and giving it to the other 50%, the evil rich people who do pay taxes.

(Or you’re letting the evil taxpayers keep a little bit of the money they make. I guess you could look at it that way if you’re not a Democrat. But after all, if they have any money at all, they didn’t earn it. Someone did that for them.)
