I, myself, prefer John Ziegler's version "Media Malpractice: How Obama Got Elected".
In this case, the Leftist media and Leftist entertainment industry are simply trying to restore The President's image in lieu of his plummeting poll numbers.
The monsters are awakening. 2010 is coming very soon! Stay vigilant, my friends! We can take back Congress in 2010!
"Yes we can!"
"Even though we tried to be fair to the President, he doesn't seem to like us very much," Bill O'Reilly says before bringing in Chris Wallace to discuss the President doing all Sunday mornign news shows but "Fox News Sunday," which Wallace hosts. Wallace also argues that one of the networks, Univision, is "not on the regular roster of Sunday talk shows."
O'Reilly argues that the "power shift" has gone to Fox News and talk radio. "The Obama administration doesn't semm to understand that," O'Reilly says.
"They are the biggest bunch of crybabies I have dealt with in my 30 years in Washington," Wallace tells O'Reilly. "These guys, everything is personal."
In his speech to Congress, President Obama cited an Illinois man who lost his insurance during chemotherapy for his failure to report gallstones that he didn't even know about. Obama said that the man died as a result of this cancellation of his insurance.
Mr. President, yet again, you are a liar.
The Wall Street Journal has proved the President sorely incorrect.
President Barack Obama, seeking to make a case for health-insurance regulation, told a poignant story to a joint session of Congress last week. An Illinois man getting chemotherapy was dropped from his insurance plan when his insurer discovered an unreported gallstone the patient hadn't known about.
"They delayed his treatment, and he died because of it," the president said in the nationally televised address.
In fact, the man, Otto S. Raddatz, didn't die because the insurance company rescinded his coverage once he became ill, an act known as recission. The efforts of his sister and the office of Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan got Mr. Raddatz's policy reinstated within three weeks of his April 2005 rescission and secured a life-extending stem-cell transplant for him. Mr. Raddatz died this year, nearly four years after the insurance showdown.
Maybe Holder will resign? Maybe Obama will condemn Holder? Maybe the radical communist regime will listen?
If yes? Then great. If not? Have fun with your one term, Mr. President.
Barack Obama HAS NO CLUE about national security!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WNYW/Fox 5 anchor Ernie Anastos makes a reference to a Perdue chicken slogan, and - well, he tries to say "plucking" but, let's just say he wishes he had that one back...
I agree, but shouldn't we all wait until 2012 to give President Obama ample opportunity to match, if not surpass Carter's legacy?
Nope. Nothing there.
Excuse my French for a moment... but...
No emotion seen. President Obama is simply reading from a necessary teleprompter.
George Bush cared about our men and women in uniform and you heard his passion in these kinds of speeches.
The Great Orator - in - Chief is simply doing what he must do as "commander in chief".
No emotion. Nothing. President Obama, folks: The least respectful "commander in chief" in U.S. history.
I don't believe his sincerity for one second.
Again... not a Republican or Democrat, conservative or liberal issue... this is an American problem. Hannity did an amazing job tonight bringing this issue to light once again.
A small minnow outweighs hard working real Americans?
Envionmentalism has superceded Capitalism?
The Radical Left voting base is more important than the average American citizen?
What an outrage!
The Great One discusses race-baiting, failed ex-presidents, corrupt community organizer confederations and the smashing success of his most recent book.
There is no racism, according to new polls; people are simply afraid of Obamacare!
Here's what we know. Swine flu is real and is affecting many people. The vaccine for swine flu will not be ready in time for the height of Swine Flu season, expected in October and November as opposed to the regular flu peak which occurs in winter. Who runs the CDC now? Obama? Ezekial Emanual? Rahm's brother?
And radical, pro-abortion Sebelius laughs it off and mocks a reporter's sneeze? Who is she a kindergarten teacher?
Maybe Secretary Teacher should would with Obama on remedial health care reform first; thee without sin cast the first stone.
At a health care rally at a Maryland university, a protester began shouting, prompting boos and President Obama to pause. The man apparently yelled "Obama you're a liar. Obama, your health care kills children. Abortion is murder."
No doubt, this protester will be labelled a "racist" by the Left.
“I have concerns about some of the language that is being used because I saw … I saw this myself in the late '70s in San Francisco. This kind of rhetoric is just, is really frightening and it created a climate in which we, violence took place and … I wish that we would all, again, curb our enthusiasm in some of the statements that are made.”
--Speaker Pelosi
"The Speaker is now likening genuine opposition to assassination. Such insulting rhetoric not only undermines the credibility of her office, but it underscores the desperate attempt by her party to divert attention away from a failing agenda. During one of the most important policy debates of our time, the American people have been completely abandoned by those elected representatives under her control. Voters are justifiably frustrated with Washington, and the Speaker's verbal assault on voters accomplishes nothing other than furthering her reputation for being wildly out of touch with the American people."
--Rep. Pete Sessions (R-TX), chairman of the National Republican Congressional Committee.
Speaker Pelosi choked up answering a question on the current political climate and potential violence over the current healthcare debate. She recalled the hostile climate of 1970's San Francisco, which resulted in two political assassinations.
She's insane!
ACORN thinks Americans have a Constitutional right to own a home, supports illegally breaking into homes , pressures Blue-Dog Democrats to back radical legislation and generally acts like above-the-law criminals.
ACORN was officially tapped as a Census partner in February and the CRAPulus Spending "Stimulus" Bill contains over $4 Billion for "neighborhood stabilization", i.e. community organizations like ACORN.
National Review noted prior to last fall's election the shady, if not corrupt and illegal relationship between Barack Obama and his community organizer bedfellows at ACORN.
The House voted Thursday to deny all federal funds for ACORN in a GOP-led strike against the scandal-tainted community organizing group that comes just three days after the Senate took similar action. "ACORN has violated serious federal laws, and today the House voted to ensure that taxpayer dollars would no longer be used to fund this corrupt organization," said second-ranked House Republican Eric Cantor of Virginia.
The vote, on a provision attached to a student aid bill, was 345-75, with Democrats supplying all the "no" votes.
On Monday the Senate voted 83-7 to deny housing and community grant funding to ACORN, which stands for the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now.
Republicans accelerated their attacks on the liberal-leaning group a year ago when ACORN, in conducting a massive voter registration drive, was accused of submitting some false registration forms.
On a hidden-camera video released on Monday, two ACORN employees are seen apparently advising a couple that was posing as a prostitute and her pimp to lie about her profession and launder her earnings. The video was the latest in a series that has already led to the firing of four ACORN employees in Baltimore and Washington. It was created by James O'Keefe and Hannah Giles and posted on BigGovernment.com, where O'Keefe identifies himself as an activist filmmaker.
ACORN spokesman Scott Levenson blasted the video shot at the organization's Brooklyn office, saying the group believes the voices of the couple were dubbed over to alter the conversation and make the interaction appear more objectionable than it may have been.
ACORN said Wednesday that it is ordering its own independent investigation of the incidents, while stressing that they were isolated cases.
The Census Bureau, meanwhile, also has severed its ties with the group for the 2010 national census.
Republicans have urged federal officials to go further by launching a comprehensive investigation of how ACORN spends and manages federal money.
"As long as taxpayers are subsidizing ACORN and its affiliates, we need to use every measure possible to ensure that those dollars are being spent and managed appropriately," said Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., sponsor of the measure that passed the House.
The Senate and House initiatives to cut funding for ACORN won't take effect until the bills to which they are attached clear Congress and are signed by President Barack Obama. The Senate measure is attached to a fiscal 2010 spending bill.
"President Obama needs to indicate whether he'll sign this bill and join us in ending all taxpayer funds for this corrupt organization," House Republican leader John Boehner of Ohio said after the vote.
White House press secretary Robert Gibbs on Wednesday said the conduct seen on the tapes "is completely unacceptable." He said the Obama administration "takes accountability extremely seriously" and noted that the Census Bureau had determined that ACORN could not meet its goal for conducting a fair and accurate count next year.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, in a conference call with reporters, called the latest allegations against ACORN "horrible." However, she pointed out that ACORN has many honest employees and was conducting an internal investigation, and that it was up to House-Senate negotiators to determine whether the provision to cut funding would be in the final version of the bill.
Haha!!!! Great work from Barely Political -- yes; "Obama Girl"'s website!
President Barack Obama has decided to scrap plans for a U.S. missile defense shield in the Czech Republic and Poland that had deeply angered Russia, the Czech prime minister confirmed Thursday.
NATO's new chief hailed the move as "a positive step" and a Russian analyst said Obama's decision will increase the chances that Russia will cooperate more closely with the United States in the dispute over Iran's nuclear program.
Premier Jan Fischer told reporters that Obama phoned him overnight to say that "his government is pulling out of plans to build a missile defense radar on Czech territory."
"The same happened with Poland. Poland was informed in the same way about this intention," Fischer said.
He said Obama assured him that the "strategic cooperation" between the Czech Republic and the U.S. would continue, and that Washington considers the Czechs among its closest allies.
In Poland, officials declined to confirm Fischer's remarks, saying they were waiting for a formal announcement from Washington.
The plan, proposed by the Bush administration, aimed to defend the United States and its European allies against a possible missile attack from Iran or elsewhere in the Middle East. In all, 10 interceptor rockets were to have been stationed in Poland and a radar system based in the Czech Republic.
But Russia was livid over the prospect of having U.S. interceptor rockets in countries so close to its territory, and the Obama administration has sought to improve strained ties with the Kremlin.
"The U.S. president's decision is a well-thought (out) and systematic one," said Konstantin Kosachev, head of the foreign affairs committee in the State Duma, the lower house of the Russian parliament. "It reflects understanding that any security measure can't be built entirely on the basis of one nation."
Nice mouth, huh?
Truth be told? I'm giving Obama a pass on this one -- for the first time in a while I agree with The President!
Show opening from Rush. Great stuff here, hilarious!
Van Jones is the racist; not Glenn Beck, not Sarah Palin. Ridiculous.
More racist invective from the left, these people keep fomenting inter-racial animosity, using racist provocations non-stop and to add insult to injury, and push the vicious perversity that is theirs by projecting their race-obsessive mentality by accusing their opposition of racism.
Make no mistake about it: in America, racism, corruption, fascism, censorship, intimidation, propaganda and tyranny come from the left side of the political spectrum.
While Jay Leno had a fake presidential interview on his first show Monday night, David Letterman will have the real thing September 21.
President Barack Obama will make the first appearance ever by a sitting U.S. President on CBS’s Late Show with David Letterman on next Monday’s show.
He will be the sole guest on the broadcast.
President Obama has already appeared on The Tonight Show since being inaugurated in January, making a visit to the program, then hosted by Jay Leno, on March 19.
It’s going to be awfully hard to avoid President Obama on television this Sunday.
The president is going to appear on five Sunday talk shows – five – to press his case for health care, White House officials disclosed. That is a presidential record.
Mr. Obama is going to appear on This Week with George Stephanopoulos on ABC. And Meet the Press on NBC. And Face the Nation on CBS. In between, he is going to sit down for interviews on CNN and Univision. (Fox News didn’t make the cut). The appearances will come at the end of a week in which the Senate Finance Committee will presumably have proposed its long-awaited version of a health care bill; the White House’s consideration of this idea suggests just how pivotal time this is in the health care negotiations.
It’s also a reminder of just how much Mr. Obama is out there. As of his seven-month in office mark in August, he had done 114 interviews, compared to 37 by former President George W. Bush and 41 by former president Bill Clinton at a similar point in their administrations, according to Martha Joynt Kumar, a political science professor at Towson University in Maryland.
Good point Senator, but that would be too akin to a capitalist solution -- the antithesis of Obama's socialist agenda.
Cutting corporate tax rates? Why would the Spendocrats want to do that?
Senate votes to deny ACORN of HUD grants.
These 7 Senators to vote in favor of ACORN:
Dick Durbin (D-IL)
Roland Burris (D-IL)
Robert Casey (D-PA)
Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY)
Patrick Leahy (D-VT)
Bernie Sanders (I-VT)
Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI)
Imagine that, Chicago's Durbin and Burris support ACORN.
Karl Rove tonight told Bill O'Reilly that Barack Obama is deliberately misleading the public. Obama told Americans last week that his health care bill will not increase the deficit. The non-partisan CBO earlier this year reported that Obamacare will significantly increase the deficit.
Of course it will increase the deficit!?!?! How can it not!!!! It's a government run program! Duh!!!!
A week after David Axelrod asked "what medical school Dick Morris went to," Morris on "Hannity" responds: "David, it's not a matter of med school - it's elementary school."
Morris has said there is a shortage of doctors in America. Not to mention, Morris was Axelrod's former boss in the Clinton Administration.
Today, Congressman Joe Wilson (R-SC) gave a one-minute speech on government-run health care on the House Floor.
He discusses the outcome of various Town Hall meetings he held in August in South Carolina and offers more affordable, more realistic proposals on health care reform.
ACORN "pimp/prostitute" film maker appears on "Fox and Friends" After the Show Show:
A new tape was released today from a Brooklyn ACORN office. There are more videos on the way, says O'Keefe.
The language of this new video is unique; bin Laden demonstrates that either he or a close aide have their finger right on the pulse of American politics.
Breitbart reports:
WASHINGTON (AP) - In a tape released Sunday by al-Qaida's media wing, terrorist leader Osama bin Laden said President Barack Obama is "powerless" to stop the war in Afghanistan.
SITE Intelligence Group, a terrorist-monitoring firm that translated the address, said bin Laden, whose al-Qaida organization was behind the Sept. 11 attacks, blamed the war on the "pro-Israel lobby" and corporate interests.
IntelCenter, another company that monitors terrorist propaganda, said the 11-minute video shows a still picture of bin Laden while audio of the address plays.
Bin Laden's address to the American people comes two days after the eighth anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks. He typically addresses the United States in a message around the Sept. 11 anniversary.
The purpose of his address Sunday, bin Laden said in the SITE translation, is "to remind you of the causes" of Sept. 11, chiefly "your support to your Israeli allies who occupy our land of Palestine."
Bin Laden argued against the claims that the war is necessary for U.S. security, saying current White House officials are merely following the strategy of former President George W. Bush and former Vice President Dick Cheney to "promote the previous policies of fear to market the interests of big companies."
When Obama became president and retained many of the Bush administration's military leaders, such as Defense Secretary Robert Gates, "reasonable people knew that Obama is a powerless man who will not be able to end the war as he promised," bin Laden said.
"If you end the war, so to it," bin Laden said. "But if it is otherwise, all we will do is continue the war of attrition against you on all possible axes."
This is getting so ridiculous! The Left is so far out of line with the racial claims lately.
All those who question Dear Leader will not only be squashed, attacked, slandered and maligned; but now you are a racist too!
First, there is Maureen Dowd's Op/Ed yesterday in the NY Times where she calls Rep. Joe Wilson Racist.
Wilson clearly did not like being lectured and even rebuked by the brainy black president presiding over the majestic chamber...
...But Wilson’s shocking disrespect for the office of the president — no Democrat ever shouted “liar” at W. when he was hawking a fake case for war in Iraq — convinced me: Some people just can’t believe a black man is president and will never accept it.
American Hero Joe "You Lie!" Wilson stands firm that he will not apologize for his remarks again despite calls for such action by partisan Democrats seeking to score cheap political points.
Wilson has already apologized at least twice for his remarks, including once to the White House. Barack Obama has accepted Wilson's apology.
Just days after shouting "You lie!" at President Obama, Wilson appears on "Fox News Sunday" and tells Chris Wallace that it is not necessary to issue another apology, as demanded by the House in lieu of censure.
"I am not going to apologize again," Wilson said on "Fox News Sunday." "I apologized to the president on Wednesday night. ... I believe that is sufficient."
He added that one of his sons told him he had a "town hall moment" during his interruption. "It was out of frustration," Wilson says.
Still, Democrats say Wilson broke House rules and should go to the floor and apologize, or risk facing a resolution condemning his actions.
He also accused the Democrats of "playing politics." "This is just a way to divert attention... It's a diversion from people looking at the bill and their concerns about the bill."
On "Face The Nation," White House Senior Advisor David Axelrod responded to the "tea party protesters" marching in opposition to President Obama's health care reform plan.
"My message to them is, they're wrong," said Axelrod, adding that a poll suggests "don't represent a mainstream view of this health care plan." "I don't think it's indicative of the nation's mood," he told Bob Schieffer.
Completely delusional. Look at the polls, you blowhard! Remember all those town hall meetings in August?
