Finally, Elisabeth comes back from maternity leave, and one of the subjects du jour was the White House’s war on Fox News. As usual, Whoopi, Joy & Sherri make their own goofy arguments about Fox News, and Elisabeth is standing tall – but she leaves out a few key points. I’m willing to give Elisabeth a break; she’s not had much sleep lately, as you can imagine. So I’m waiting for her to get back on her A-game.
Personally I think Joy’s irritated her pissy little show on HLN could only FANTASIZE about ratings like Beck & O’Reilly get for their shows, although she would never admit it out of sheer audacity.
Recently on Fox News, Julie Banderas featured a special segment of wounded warriors who returned to Iraq for a homecoming, of sorts, to try and find some closure of their time in the battle. What a touching story this was, and what a reminder it is that we owe our very freedoms to these men and woman so we may enjoy the lives we are currently living.
Let’s pray we can keep this Republic and keep the enemies at bay. God bless our military men and women, those who’ve served in any theatre, at home and abroad.
This was last Sunday on Fox News Sunday with Chris Wallace. This was quite entertaining. Although I have to admit, and yes, I’m biased, that McAuliffe is a bit delusional. Karl was having fun, as was I.
In a moment from last week’s “The Good Wife” episode, attorneys discuss losing a potential juror, but discuss the downside of getting the alternate… QUICK! IT’S A REPUBLICAN! RUN FOR THE HILLS!
Can the networks get any more brazen? Is this part of the EIF‘s “White House” service agenda? Geez, Louise!
Boy are you in for a real treat. Now, I understand that those of you who hate Glenn Beck & Fox News are going to dismiss this whole thing, but if you’re really paying attention and are awake today, what Glenn is about to reveal to you should chill you to the bone.
Anita Dunn is the new person in charge at the White House who went to war with Fox News in an interview this past weekened on CNN. Apparently she’s the new White House “Fox News War Czar.” Specifically, she’s supposed to account for and address any lies she sees on Fox News, especially the Glenn Beck show, and for that, Glenn Beck has installed a hotline in studio for Anita Dunn. Anita Dunn is the only one who was given the phone number for this phone, and Glenn has been begging for someone to call and say that he’s got his story wrong. For the love of God, I hope he’s wrong, too. But it doesn’t seem Anita’s either taken her job seriously, or the White House finds nothing wrong with what he’s said.
Oh they’ve had complaints in the past. They correct Glenn about Van Jones. You see, Glenn said that Van Jones was the Green Jobs “Czar,” but the White House dutifully corrected him, stating that he was NOT in fact a ‘czar,’ but merely an ‘advisor.’ Uh huh. That’s the only thing the White House had to correct? Wow.
Now we have Anita to welcome into the fold of radicals. Glenn was given a video of Anita giving a speech to a HIGH SCHOOL audience in June of this year. And in that address, she told the students who her two favorite political philosophers were – and you will be shocked by the first one. I won’t spoil it here. For those Beck haters out there, you won’t watch the video anyway. But for those of you who WANT to know what’s being discovered, you should watch so you can be forewarned who is advising the President.
Hi… please forgive the appearance of my site. I have a tag somewhere in the code that is wreaking havoc, and until I can find it, my site is all caddywampus on me. Please bear with me as I work to correct it.
Listen…I’m no fan of Obama, and like Mark Levin, I’d vote for a can of orange juice before I’d vote for Obama in 2012. Somewhere along the way, just because our president is black, videos like this are becoming more mainstream and more acceptable on YouTube and other sites, and it should not be.
This is tastleless to the n’th degree, but if it’s okay for black people to do this, how is anything ANY of the Republican candidates do remotely deemed racist at all?
If this country ever truly wants to progress and become a more civilized nation, why is trash like this even tolerated? I’m not asking for this garbage to be censored, but I’d love to see at least SOME condemnation of things like this to be more prevalent. Can we please all agree this is unacceptable in a civilized world? You cannot condemn one group of people for being allegedly “racist” while simultaneously approving of another group of people for creating videos such as this, villifying a single race of people in the process of glorifying the creators of these videos? One need only search certain terms on YouTube to find thousands of videos like this one. And they’re all equally disgusting.
What say you, Eugene Robinson, Goldie Taylor, Donna Brazile, Marc Lamont Hill, etc., etc.? I’m waiting for you all to openly condemn videos like this on YouTube. If you don’t, then I have no reason to listen to your small and petty complaints of racism from Fox News, Republicans as a whole, and GOP candidates in the 2012 primary. Your silence about videos like this are tacit approval of them.
As is said in many places, “hilarity ensues” (h/t Mediaite):
Frances Martel does a fabulous write-up about it, and I couldn’t have said it any better, so here it is direct from the Mediaite post:
“Are you offended?” O’Reilly asked Harpootlian, who replied that he was not, but that he found the fact that Republicans had “no outreach to African Americans” a problem “in a state where we have an African-American Republican Congressman.” “Adding insult to injury, this debate ignoring Martin Luther King’s birthday!” he added, which made O’Reilly ask who was ignoring the debate and why. The Republicans, Harpootlian replied, because “no one has raised any issue with Fox about it being appropriate or inappropriate.”
O’Reilly then asked whether there was a reason for this– namely, something that happened in 2008. Harpootlian did not remember what happened in 2008 (a Democratic primary debate on Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day) and who sponsored it (the Congressional Black Caucus), which prompted several awkward seconds where Harpootlian was obviously caught flat-footed. With this development, O’Reilly then told him that, “by injecting race into this, you do a disservice.” Harpootlian finally replied, blaming Republicans for injecting race into the matter by calling this “the most important election since 1860.” “We in the South have a little different version of that election,” he noted, suggesting that talking to Southerners in such a way was a sort of dog whistle. O’Reilly disagreed and just asked Harpootlian to give it up, adding, “you’re getting killed here!”
Today on Neil Cavuto, radio talk show host and constitutional scholar, Mark Levin was on to discuss his new book, “Ameritopia.”
Levin’s previous book, “Liberty and Tyranny” was a best-seller, as was another book before that titled, “Men in Black.” “Liberty and Tyranny” is a must-read for anybody who wants to know how we got to the point where we are in America today.
I’ve been stewing on this and stewing on this figuring out the right way to convey how I feel about it, and I’ve been struggling with just the right words to describe my sentiment. I read a fabulous screed by Deebow over at BlackFive, but it wasn’t until I saw the headline in a Weekly Standard piece today that quoted Lt. Col. Allen West (R-FL) on this matter. I couldn’t have said it better myself:
‘Shut Your Mouth, War Is Hell’
Yes, you got that right. Congressman West has weighed in on this flap over the Marines taking a piss on dead Taliban terrorists, sending an email to the Weekly Standard, who got his permission to print what he said. Here’s a portion of his commentary:
“All these over-emotional pundits and armchair quarterbacks need to chill. Does anyone remember the two Soldiers from the 101st Airborne Division who were beheaded and gutted in Iraq?
“The Marines were wrong. Give them a maximum punishment under field grade level Article 15 (non-judicial punishment), place a General Officer level letter of reprimand in their personnel file, and have them in full dress uniform stand before their Battalion, each personally apologize to God, Country, and Corps videotaped and conclude by singing the full US Marine Corps Hymn without a teleprompter.
“As for everyone else, unless you have been shot at by the Taliban, shut your mouth, war is hell.”
I’m not even quite sure that what the Marines did was wrong, but since when in the hell did we become so indignant and self-righteously outraged about treating killers like they deserve to be treated? Sure, they probably shouldn’t have videotaped what they did, but who the hell cares? And don’t give me this “don’t stoop to their level” B.S. either. Until you have been in the shoes of our warriors, or our first responders (cops, firefighters, etc.), or, heck, even ever been a crime victim yourself, you have no idea what you would do, given the same circumstances.
