Fox Sunday - plays Biden’s footh in mouth speech about putting y’all back in chains. Gibbs tries to compare what Biden said to what Boehner said about “unshackling” Wall street...or somfin. Wallace takes exception to that comparison.....continues hammering him on Biden’s comments. Gibbs is proud of Biden. (lol - he may be the only one)
Wallace plays Romney “ shove it and go back to Chicago” comments to obama (I’m paraphrasing). Gibbs response - obama is running a campaign on the issues. gibbs says he’s not going to be lectured by the likes of Romney - Romney who jets all over America (doing something), sits down with Donald Trump - that nutjob birther who still doesn’t believe obama’s birth record...yada, yada, yada.....(LOL, that’s going to bring a response by Trump....I guarentee it!)
At least I get to give Herman Cain one of my rods Tuesday night in Key West.Should be a fun evening.
I listened to Gibbs on FNS and have just heard a few minutes of David Gregory on MTP. They are using the same exact wording to defend Obama.
Md’s Gov O’Malley is another parrot.
However, on a local channel, at this same time is a show by former Gov Ehrlich and his wife. Their guest this week is former Lt Gov and then RNC chairman Michael Steele.
Steele is saying Great things about Paul Ryan, and how he is going to win this election! Steele worked closely with Ryan for the 2010 election, when their objective was to pry the gavel out of Pelosi’s hands, and they succeeded.
Well young feller,
There’s yer dam hunnert.
I can't speak to the present but several years ago when I signed up there was a card you could fill out and send back saying you didn't want Medicare B.
If you're like most people, you've paid into Medicare all your working life. Why would you kiss that money goodbye?
I suppose you could turn Medicare down completely by not signing up. Take a look at this.
FWIW, I have a regular Medicare supplement, a "J" plan, plans vary from state to state, and have yet to be billed a penny for procedures. And I've had some expensive ones done.
Shhhhh.... O’biden is our secret weapon....
Gibbs called Donald Trump a right-wing nutjob this morning on Fox News Sunday.
Then I must be a white supremacist in their minds.
Have not seen this yet. The moderator on This Week asked the Romney campaign if they would disavow the Swift Boat type ad that’s running now?
This irritates the heck out of me. The Romney guy dodged the correct answer. Yes, it IS a Swift Boat type ad. The Swift Boat ads were all true.
Define “medical professional” and what business do they have deciding what a doctor can and can’t do for his patient? We do not want to be Soviet citizens comrade Gibbs.
or a dishwasher at a gay and lesbian coffeehouse....
The sooner this happens, the better for this Obamanomic disaster for the company, its workers and the few investors it has left.
That map is biased just like the NYT and WaPo polls are since it is the daily average of all the polls. He and Joe Trippy put it together. The Ras map would look a lot different. Still looks great that Oregon sits nearly 10 pts better than Cal and Wa, maybe we are turning this state?
Pray for Oregon
Something obnoxious came on FOX, so I flipped to a random channel...muted. Suddenly I looked up and saw a map with all the states in red....ALL RIGHT!
Unfortunately, it was the Weather Channel.
Honestly, which is a better use of your Sunday morning? Watching the Sunday Talk Shows or going to church?
Many doctors down here now advertise that if you come to them they have no malpractice insurance and operate/hide under an LLC. So basically don't even think about suing them because you wont get squat.Hard to imagine its come to that.
***Biden meant it exactly as it sounds, pandering to blacks and trying to sound black as a means of showing them hes one of them and on their side.***
Except he used the word “y’all”!
Putting himself on the porch of the plantation talking “compassionately” to his workers.
One simple word “we” would have showed his opinion of the scary Ryan budget. But he didn’t see himself as affected by it. Biden is a true, lifetime racist.

The LIVESTRONG Bracelet is a yellow silicone gel bracelet launched in May 2004 as a fund-raising item for the Lance Armstrong Foundation, founded by cyclist and cancer survivor Lance Armstrong. The bracelet itself was developed by Nike and their ad agency Wieden+Kennedy.
Now Wallace questions Ed Gillespie on Ryan’s Medicare proposals. Brings up the $6,400 added cost to Seniors’ cost to participate in Medicare. Gillespie rejects analyais. (my question - who should pay?)
Wallace plays Romney’s comments about tax rates he paid (13% or thereabouts). Wallace asks when should we expect this year’s tax returns? The deadline for the IRS is Oct. 15 - Wallace asks, isn’t this a crazy time to release these records?
Wallace plays obama’s speech claiming Ryan’s plan will allow Romney to pay only 1% of taxes and expect you, the public, to pick up the tab. Gillespie points out the plan allows people making less than $200K to not pay taxes on capital gains. (good gravy - I’m pretty sure Romney makes more than 200K, especially next year when he’ll pull in a presidnet’s salary as a minimum.)
Wallace asks Gillespie whether the Romney campaign should make an issue of Biden....Gillepie responds Biden makes himself an issue..lol.
I have to agree. Chris Wallace really surprised me this morning...
