Chuck Todd, NBC News Political Director and moderator of Meet the Press, appeared on NPR’s The Diane Rehm Show on Tuesday November 11, to promote his new book "The Stranger: Barack Obama in the White House." During his appearance, the NBC host defended Obama’s 2008 speech in which then-candidate Obama claimed “bitter Americans” “cling to guns or religion.” Todd argued that Obama’s “just observing the way an anthropologist would observe a society.” Todd’s defense of Obama came in response to a caller to the show who argued: One asks why Obama is so aloof, so cool, so withdrawn,

I heard a little of this. Only a little. I couldn't take it.
Clinging 2 Guns & Religion? Why is Chuck Todd digging up this dry old bone of commentary?
Chuck U. Todd is a RAT suck-up from way back.
Maybe to explain why it was necessary to lie and obfuscate about Obungacare to get it passed because people were so stupid?
At a fundraiser? Tell us, Chuck Wodd, what would be the purpose of
an anthropological observation at a fundraiser?
Wood Chuck Todd, still chewing the knob.
0bama’s as qualified to be an anthropologist as he is to be President.
It could be, just might be, that American voters are becoming wise to the accomplice media fraudulent worship of the fallen Messiah.
Obama Set to Award Medal of Freedom to Media Ally Tom Brokaw
Poor little Chuck. All those Monica’s he gave Nero and all he got was a 3rd rate “news”
Show that 99% of America won’t see or if they do, won’t believe.
Hope you like the Taste that leaves in your mouth Chuckie
I rather liked Obama’s observation. Like Dr. Jonathan Gruber’s observation that Americans are stupid, it told me far more about the speaker and the speaker’s supporters than a more diplomatic comment would have communicated. I am proud to cling to God - rejecting either the Creator of the universe or the guidance provided by that Creator strikes me as shockingly bad judgement. I am proud to cling to guns - delegating my safety and my family’s safety to others puts two of my top priorities in the hands of those who may have very different values.
As for bitterness, I have almost never seen it in a conservative. Liberals are often bitter, even when young, but conservatives are most often filled with the joy of life, family, and service to a country that they understand well enough to recognize its true value.
Chuck OFF!
Maybe Chuck Todd can offer an excuse for Gruber...and MIT... and Nancy Pelosi too... We’re all ears out here in flyover - land of the stupid Americans...
The Constitution is a quaint custom quickly losing sway in a modern socialist society.
Once more, Meet the Depressed lives up to its title.
Well said, Pollster1!
Chuckie clings to 0bama’s **** with his ****.....
It’s almost as if these guys don’t want viewers.
