those that control the democratic party realize Hillary is to damaged to win a election. also they are scared that she will bring down other democrats when other things start to come out. I think they believe that if she bows out that how she has made her money over the years will not be examined which would lead to the foreign money I believe has been funneled into different democratic community action groups the last 20 years. I think the party leaders have chosen Elisabeth Warrens and are now trying to engineer Hillarie’s implosion to happen in the next 6 months.

As well you should. Warren is every bit as bad as Obama and Hillary. Fauxcahontas is an accurate moniker for this Leftie elitist.

Thanks kristinn. Snuffy, from the FRchives: others, including some partisan media shills: A sample of older work from Schweizer: This is really about changing horses. Remember when Hitlery challenged Zero in 2008? The chickens are coming home to roost.

How is Stephanopolous’s deceit materially any different from Brian williams’?

THERE'S AN OLD SAYING: Once a Clinton factotum always a Clinton factotum: factotum George Stephanopoulos transitioned into an ABC journo (without surgery--snix). He donated $75,000 to the Foundation and was deeply involved; Clinton Cash author, Schweizer, has been assembling the track record:

<><> •In 2006 Georgeopoulous was a featured attendee and panel moderator at the annual CGI meeting.

<><> •in 2007 he was listed as a featured attendee at the CGI meeting alongside big money Lucas Lundin, Frank Giustra, Frank Holmes, and Carlos Slim.

<><> •He was a 2008 panelist at the annual meeting.

<><> •In 2009 he was a panel moderator at the CGI annual meeting.

<><> •In 2010, he was a “notable member” of CGI's exclusive members-only club w/ a $20,000 membership price tag.

=============================================

THIS IS FROM THE CLINTON FOUNDATION ARCHIVES:

AN OUTSTANDING POST BY FREEPER TRAVIS MCGEE: "Most viewers of the Jan 7 New Hampshire Republican primary debate, wondered why debate moderator George Stephanopoulos of ABC-News kept asking seemingly off-topic questions about the candidates’ views."

We now understand White House War Room “General” Valerie Jarrett had been coaching hard-left suckups to deliver the administration's “talking points” and strategic memes in the effort to dupe America voters.

Transitioned into an ABC-TV (gag) journo, the Clinton White House War Room “General” George Stephanopoulos just happened to pick debate questions that the cunning Obama White House wanted to float, as a diversion......

================================================

When Barack Obama took office in 2009....ABC-TV "Good Morning America" anchors and guests gushed at the (cough) 'sheer brilliance' of Obama's incoming cabinet, and referenced Obama's "team of economic gladiators"...which included "gladiator" Secy of the Treasuey Tim Geithner (who had a problem filing taxes).

Predictably, reconstituted Clinton factotum, George Stephanopoulos, now an ABC-TV newsman, rhapsodized about the Obama picks on ABC-TV: "We have not seen this kind of combination of star power and brain power and political muscle this early in a cabinet in our lifetimes," Steffie gushed on-air at ABC-TV.

BACKSTORY CIRCA 2009--OBAMA TAKES OFFICE Seems phone calls were being made between Obama's then-COS Rahm Emanuel and ABC-TV's George Stephanopoulous.

Media Research President Brent Bozell, a vocal critic, made the claim that these were "strategy phone calls," and requested ABC to respond. "With each passing day, ABC's failure to speak to, and about, this issue tarnishes further the network's reputation as a legitimate news entity," Bozell writes.

ABC-TV responds to Brent Bozell

Dear Mr. Bozell,

Thank you for your letter regarding George Stephanopoulos. To be crystal clear, George Stephanopoulos does not advise Rahm Emanuel nor anyone else in the Obama Administration. He reports on the Obama Administration. He speaks to Mr. Emanuel, a friend he has know for nearly two decades, as a source, just as he speaks to countless sources across the political spectrum each and every day. That is his job as an anchor and reporter and one that he does according to the highest standards.

In your letter, and public utterances, you falsely assert that ABC News has been silent on this matter. That is simply untrue. Upon reading your press release last week, we reached out to the MRC to make it abundantly clear that you had totally mischaracterized the Politico story written by John Harris last Tuesday.

Indeed, Politico posted a story last Friday by Ben Smith pointing out exactly how badly you had mangled the facts. In that post, Harris stated that, " The calls are certainly a fascinating Washington ritual, but by no means do I think that George Stephanopoulos is participating in strategy sessions.

To my mind, he established his journalistic bona fides more than a decade ago, even as the Clinton administration was still underway, when he showed his willingness to report aggressively on Democrats as well as Republicans."

To give further lie to your claim that ABC News has not responded to your distortions, our senior vice president was quoted in the Politico story saying, "George speaks to Emanuel, but he speaks to plenty of conservatives and Republicans every single day -- that's part of his job.

The idea that there is some kind of daily conference call that George hops on is just nonsense and not true." Furthermore, last Friday, a reporter from CNS News, which was founded by you and continues to be directly affiliated with the MRC, contacted our media relations staff for a piece he'd been assigned to write on this very topic.

We cooperated immediately and provided him an on the record response. We have since learned from your reporter that his story was killed. You have said, "if the charges are false, provide the evidence. We will gladly accept it and consider the matter closed."

From the moment you issued your first press release on the Politico story last week - and numerous times since - we have made it clear to you and your staff that your assertions regarding Mr. Stephanopoulos and ABC News are false and based on a willful and knowing distortion of John Harris' original story.

Sincerely,

Kerry Smith, Senior Vice President
Editorial Quality, ABC News
