Joy Behar Wants 10% From Juan Williams, and Wants Us to Know NPR Has Been Thoroughly Vetted by Media Matters (VIDEO)

From a partial transcript, h/t Mediaite (I don’t know who did this transcript, but I tried to fix it as much as possible for spelling and punctuation errors.):

Barbara Walters: It’s why I sometimes have trouble here and don’t give my opinion because I’m also with ABC news. If you are a commentator and you’re giving opinions, you’re in one category.

Sherri Sheppard: Is that a pundit?

Walters: You can call it a pundit. If you are giving the news straight, you’re not supposed to give your opinions. Now, that’s changed so much. We’re in a whole other time now. Everybody has an opinion. If you don’t make more noise or scream louder or so on, you don’t get the ratings. So it is a funny blurred line. They said he’s a journalist, he’s a correspondent, and he’s not supposed to give opinions. But when he goes on another cable show like Fox and does it — so it’s a very blurry line. In the meantime, we hope he’ll come on with us and, if nothing else, give Joy and Whoopi 10%.


Sherri Sheppard: Bring your checkbook with you.

Joy Behar: I don’t need the money. But the thing of it is that NPR has been vetted by objective Media Matter type people and they have found that –

Elizabeth Hasselbeck: Media Matters?

Behar: I don’t know if it’s Media Matters. Maybe someone could find this out for me. They have found NPR is very balanced, unlike Fox, which is not balanced. Fox has now become the arm of the Republican Party.

Hasselbeck: That’s such a talking point, joy. It’s not true.

Behar: It is true.

Hasselbeck: It is not true.

Behar: People who are running for office are commentators on Fox.

Walters: Fox says their news is fair but they are a very conservative cable [station] with a particular point of view. I would like to ask our friend Bill O’Reilly, who is still with (sic) the subject every night on his program, I think we should get 10% of his salary.

You’re welcome, Joy. Chris “tingles” Matthews clip courtesy of me, you hypocrite buffoon.

Karl Rove Schools Bob Schieffer on Outside & Special Interest Funding (VIDEO)

This was classic Rove, and classic Schieffer, insofar as Bob picking and choosing what parts of a study and/or facts to include in a Q&A session. I don’t agree with everything Karl Rove does or says, but in this case, he’s spot on. And what does Bob do? Three times he says “let’s go back to my original question.” Excuse me, Bob, but some pretty formiddable and uncontrovertible facts were just thrown in your face, and you act like you didn’t hear them?


MY GOD, this man is pathetic. Face the Nation is an out-dated program with an out-dated anchor, and both should be put out to pasture to live out somewhat normal lives as they nurse their apparent Alzheimer’s.

Way to go Karl!

Wow. Just wow.

But Fox? That’s just pure GOP propaganda. Sure, E.J. And the Washington Post is a bastion of “fair and balanced” news, as well. Oh, and yes, there are MANY people more conservative than David Brooke, E.J. Like… all of them.

Zuhdi Jasser to Juan Williams: “Thank You For Waking Up America” (VIDEO)

On Friday’s O’Reilly Factor, Juan was sitting in for Bill, and one of his guests was Dr. Zuhdi Jasser, founder of the American Islamic Forum for Democracy. Dr. Jasser is to CAIR like Thomas Sowell is to Al Sharpton and his National Action Network. In other words, Dr. Jasser knows how destructive and discredited CAIR is, and how bad they are for the legitimate discussions and debate that NEED to be had in America about the roots of Muslim theo-political ideology.


The story of NPR’s firing of Juan is well known, as is Megyn Kelly’s take-down of CAIR’s Ibrahim Hooper. CAIR and Ibrahim Hooper are just the same kind of race-pimps that we see in Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, NAACP and the like. The more they can keep their people down and dependent, the more they stand to profit. Dr. Jasser and men like Thomas Sowell are so far past the victimhood that is so pervasive in groups like the NAACP and CAIR. It’s refreshing to hear this discourse.

Only good things can come of this now-open dialogue. We cannot assuage our fears of Muslims in traditional garb on airplanes until Muslims themselves begin to admit it’s a Muslim problem and it has to be addressed in their community – fighting the extremists and destroying the Islamic theo-political ideology.

Juan Williams Eviscerates NPR in His OWN Talking Points Memo! (VIDEO)

In case you’ve been on another planet the past couple of days, Juan Williams was recently fired from NPR for “offensive” comments he recently made on Fox News regarding having an uncomfortable fear of seeing Muslims in traditional garb, boarding airplaines he is aboard. Tonight, as promised, Juan Williams sat in for Bill O’Reilly. In Juan’s own “Talking Points Memo,” he took the fabulous opportunity to skewer his critics, most notably, NPR CEO & President, Vivian Schiller, for alluding to the idea that Juan might be “unstable” with her comment about him needing to work out this situation with his “psychiatrist” or his publicist.


Juan then proceeds to point out many other NPR staffers who are STILL in their employ, who have said far worse things than he ever has – only thing is, they denigrated conservatives, so that’s cool with NPR. Juan didn’t tow the liberal company NPR line, so he was tossed out. Oh, well, sucks to be NPR. But for Juan? He has two million reasons to be happy that he has a NEW contract with FNC; an employer who will actually have his back, and not jam him up when it’s politically expedient for the viewers.

And for those of you who say Ailes did the same thing? Remember, Juan was and is a liberal, and will ALWAYS be true to his liberal beliefs. He just now sees the light as to how the oh-so-tolerant Left can be.

Juan, you just increased your capital and cred ten-fold, and I’m happy to be able to continue to have you to watch on FNC. Yes, I’ll still be yelling at you in disagreement, but damnit, that’s what it’s supposed to be like – agree to disagree, but believe what you say, and say what you believe. Juan is one of those rare birds who will always be true to himself, therefore a proven asset for any company for whom he could work.
