MUST WATCH: Oregon Republican calls out Liberal reporter, gets THROWN OUT of candidate meeting
The Right Scoop ^ | 05/02/2014 | The Right Scoop

This has to be the best thing I’ve seen since Newt Gingrich was calling out the liberal media in 2012.

Republican Mark Callahan, who is running for US Senate in Oregon, was in a candidate review meeting with other colleagues in order for Willamette Week, a publication in Portland, to decide who they would endorse in the upcoming primary. An opponent of his, Republican Joe Rae Perkins, was on speaker phone. There were others in the room but I’m not sure who they were specifically.

The clip starts with Perkins answering a question on speaker phone. While she was answering it, one of WW’s reporters, Nigel Jaquiss, wrote ‘blah blah blah blah’ on his paper as she was answering. Callahan noticed it and called Jaquiss out for it, saying:

"You want to talk about disrespect? I see what you’re writing down there. You just wrote down ‘blah blah blah blah blah’ for everything that Joe Rae said. Joe Rae is a respectable woman. Why are you not respecting her by writing ‘blah blah blah blah blah’ on your notepad?"

Is this the way it’s usually done? I thought candidates were interviewed individually, not as part of a group. …no big loss anyway, like a Portland newspaper is actually going to endorse a Republican.

The problem here & almost universal is talking to ANY liberal. There is no gain. Talk is over with all of them. These commie/leftist are nothing more than cancers & need to be handled as such.

Callahan would be better in the STATE House or Senate...he needs time to ...uh... gain a following. Believe me...I know. It’s not that I don’t like him or what he did...it’s just that there are 4+ people running for this Senate seat....and he has NO chance at all...never did....still doesn’t....he could have likely been elected to the State House, though.

When Callahan said he thought "climate change"© was a myth; the snarky blah-blah-blah "reporter" asked whether he thought the Easter Bunny was a myth. Amongst several other things, that was a failure of logic. If Callahan had asked the "climate change"© acolytes opposite if they believed in the Easter Bunny, that would have been snarky, and logical.
