NYT Reporter: Wolf’s “Aunt Lydia” Line Not About Huckabee Sanders Looks
FinkelBlog ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 04/30/2018 4:07:06 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

Disingenuous, or just clueless? You be the judge.

On today’s Morning Joe, New York Times reporter Nick Confessore, apropos of Michelle Wolf’s line about Aunt Lydia and Sarah Huckabee Sanders at the correspondents’ dinner, said:

“Mika, actually the joke was about lying and not her looks. I think the reference to Aunt Lydia was a reference to the character on that show. That’s my opinion.”

No, there was nothing said about SHS’ looks. It was about lying.

My daughter called me up to say how “realistic” the show is. I disabused her of that notion.

You obviously didn’t watch the act. It was hilarious and she destroyed Congress, the Democrats, Ted Kennedy, Harvey Weinstein, MSNBC, CNN, Fox. She pointed out how the Democrats need to own up to the fact that abortion kills a baby. Yes, she was brutal to Trump, Sarah Sanders and Kelly Conway, Ivanka. Made fun of the news focus on Russia. She said nothing about Sarah Sanders’ looks. People should watch it before they hold forth about what they think she said. Yes, it was raunchy, but, so what? Consider the audience.

We don’t watch TV in this house. If everyone abstained from the filth offered there, many of the followers of Satan would be out of work.

That’s how I was raised. I don’t watch TV, although I have a bunch. There is nothing on and I hate commercials. However, I do watch You Tube and Netflix, bet you do too.

Mika, when you have to explain the joke, it was a failure.

The Handmaid’s Tale is the best fiction of the imposition of Islam in the country.


Bingo. But the women who watch it imagine its Christianity. Ironically, if a Mullah actually made them wear burkas, they’d be okay with it. As long as its not an evil White male calling the shots.

Were you drinking when you watched it?

She didn’t destroy congress or any one on the left

I mean really here’s the Weinstein “destruction”. Calling SHS a woman’s friend is like saying HW is a lady’s man

That ain’t even funny it’s just stupid

Liberals think that Christians are Taliban in waiting. They ignore the real Taliban, ISIS, Boko Haram, Al Shabab ... because of their bias against Christianity and bias for Islam.

I once went on a date sate with a woman who urged me to watch this nonsense because “this is the way our country is going to be”. Needless to say, I have never seen her again.

I'd have stayed with her for a few weeks. Women like that are ... gullible.

The Handmaid’s Tale is the best fiction depiction of the future imposition of Islam on Western Culture.

Can anyone explain the “smoke eye” reference? I don’t know what that is.

Yep, and the Left are too dishonest or stupid to admit it so they have tried to spin it as a jab at Conservative Christians.

What about the bit that she burns ash and uses it for that smokey eye look?

The way it was said was not flattering but poking fun, the least “mean” thing Wolf said.

Sarah uses dark eye shadow on her eye lid which gives it a look called “smokey eye” look.

I’m not sure if the crack about burning ash could be a hit to Catholics or just where that come from.

Not a funny entertaining roast at all, NONE of it.
