I can not look at Michelle 0 without Aunt Esther of Sanford and Son coming to mind. The similarities are too strong.

I must admit I sat there open mouth as well it was disgusting how you can eulogize over this woman she is not fit to tie Laura Bush's shoe laces. IMHO Laura Bush will always be my idea of what a First Lady should be.

I think I was to shocked and amazed to actually be able to turn the program off I just had to continue to watch it to be sure that I had not imagined the whole thing.

Axelrod managed to get the word “inherited” in.

Mission accomplished, David, but you own this thing now.

I can’t help but think that they are doing it on purpose - to further their socialist agenda.

Kurtz, on Reliable Sources, just took another shot at fox news while giving his own network a pass yet again.

Proof that CNN is going to try to out msnbc msnbc by attacking the number one cable network.

CNN fell to third place last month in prime time, the first time in its history, so in order to up its ratings, it is going to try to out-lefty the leftiest network in town.

Shame on Howie, he only diminishes himself and his own network, yet again.

Good luck with that. I have gone there a few times, but I get to angry to do research.

One thing I did notice. On the front page they always have 3 or 4 feature stories and a picture to accompany each. The picture for the G20 was the "class photo" of all the leaders. For some reason, both Angela Merkel and Christine Kirchner, the president of Argentina, were cropped out. There was no reason to crop the picture, so I am left with the feeling that women weren't wanted in the picture. The Saudi guy was front and center, of course.

[Gerson points out that it’s easy to be popular in Europe when you go there and criticize America.]

That is a good point and is what sickens me more than anything. Obama goes over to Europe and cuts America down to cheering crowds. 60% of Americans do not even have the sense to get angry about it. Probably 40% agrees with him that America is nothing special. It is like we have beaten wife syndrome.

Bush & Co failed in the public relations department

What were they supposed to do?

And please don't roll out the tired, old "Go over the heads of the media, directly to the American people like Reagan did" bromide.

The DBM is much more vicious and cynical than in Reagan's day.

If you're out on stage and the guy in the back cuts your mic, there's not much you can do about it.

I often wonder whether they felt it was not appropriate for a President to indulge in PR and at the end of the day were content that they knew that they had done what they considered the right thing and can live with this and not worry that that they have never been given the credit for it.

Also I think it was almost impossible for them to fight the MSM I think they thought it was just better to get on and do it even if the average person did not know they were doing it unless they bothered to check the website as the press sure was not going to tell the American people anything good the President had achieved.

I see the good Newt is out this morning, so far anyway.

Calls Barky’s view of foreign policy a fantasy view. Just pretty much took Barky apart on his foreign policy.

Morgan, I think you will find that almost all Republicans fail in the public relations department. Notice how quickly John McCain moved from being the darling of the press to an out of touch geezer.

By the time 2012 rolls around, Sarah Palin will be trailer trash. Mitt Romney will be a religious fanatic with ties to big business.

I am very discouraged about the media and how much control they have over the uninformed.

I believe it to I think that by dissing the British PM and Queen they feel they will get more brownie points from their Chicago thugs and Union bosses who IMHO are controlling Zero.
