If you need an emotional crumb, Kathy, well, Obama has changed the words and some of the direction of the tit-for-tat politics from what and where Clinton directed his. That's Change [tm].

That is truly astounding. That's all I can say. I have no other words.

I mean… What I'm saying is, I guess, so be it, then. I can't make you see it. Spelling it out isn't going to help. It's all but spelled out already. You just don't think it's dishonest. What can I say to that?

The problem I have with the Politico piece and the approving responses and additions from right-wing bloggers is that it's dishonest. It's dishonest on so many levels it makes the head spin. Like that last bit from Jennifer Rubin that I put in bolds: You don't think that's dishonest? I mean, the reason I bolded it is that it's extra extra extra dishonest. It's breathtaking. Do you really not see that?

Nope, not trying to be snarky, just trying to tie all this together. Too much of other people's opinions and not enough of yours maybe.

Is your conclusion that the Rahm Emanuel approach is nothing new, and therefore acceptable for Obama?

Maddow/Olbermann Invited to White House Chat with Obama, But Fox Isn't a News Organization?
http://www.mediabistro.com/tvnewser/fnc/maddowo…

On Monday, MSNBC's Keith Olbermann and Rachel Maddow were among several people who attended an off-the-record briefing with Pres. Obama at the White House. Sources tell us other attendees at the two-and-a-half hour chat included Eugene Robinson of the Washington Post, Maureen Dowd of the New York Times, Gwen Ifill of PBS and Gloria Borger of CNN. Perhaps not surprisingly, no one from Fox News was in the room.

This is like refusing to deal with dictators while inviting Stalin to chat over tea.

1. You can't defend the attacks against Fox — they're the very same as against “un-American, Nazi” members of the public daring to express dissent at town hall meetings whose outcomes were not of the approved kind — even the rest of the media (maybe they're just 80 per cent liberal now; that fraction need not be a quibble) is concerned (and already has objected to being stage-managed).

2. As for the hat, yes, I was serious. I've suggested pink rather than red, necessarily, so it matches what you're wearing in your photo. Kathy, the Pink Panther. Of course, a Che' beret (Che'-vette) or autographed Chavez beret would work, too.

[...] exploited kids”

(Faithful Dems among the public, at the grade K-3 level, this is your duty as a loyal citizen, too.)

I suppose this is the new script for all future press conferences, too. Press, read and recite from now on. If the President is short of time, only the last part will be recited.

Barack Hussein Obama
He said that all must lend a hand
To make this country strong again
Mmmm, mmmm, mmmm!

Barack Hussein Obama
He said we must be clear today
Equal work means equal pay
Mmmm, mmmm, mmmm!

Barack Hussein Obama
He said that we must take a stand
To make sure everyone gets a chance
Mmmm, mmmm, mmmm!

Barack Hussein Obama
He said Red, Yellow, Black or White
All are equal in his sight
Mmmm, mmmm, mmmm!

Barack Hussein Obama
Yes
Mmmm, mmmm, mmmm!
Barack Hussein Obama

Hello, Mr. President we honor you today!
For all your great accomplishments, we all say, “Hooray!”

Hooray, Mr. President! You’re number one!
The first Black American to lead this great na-TION!

Hooray, Mr. President something-something-some
A-something-something-something-some economy is number one again!

Hooray Mr. President, we’re really proud of you!
And the same for all Americans in the great Red, White, and Blue!

So something, Mr. President, we all just something-some,
So here’s a hearty hip-hooray a-something-something-some!

Hip, hip, hooray!
Hip, hip, hooray!
Hip, hip, hooray!

At least the exploited kids (are NFT activists behind this? Duncan's people?) haven't been made yet to have Obama's portrait in every classroom and next to the flag during the Pledge of Allegiance (whose PC demonization status is hereby suspended if not re-appropriated) — have they?

They learned their lesson, insofar as they conceded to reality and abandoned the worst radical extreme words and some deeds (though not all the corruption and other misconduct, obviously), even reversing course (privatization, deregulation, joining others with the “Third Way” DNC “moderate” appeal to people).

“Milder-mannered, lighter, smoother, safer and saner Democrats”

Don't forget the earlier Communist-style (Stalinist, too, given the use of the personality cult motif) advice given to the Faithful Herd to become informers on their fellow citizens, that good old denunciation and informer campaign. (Openly intended to suppress dissent through fear and intimidation, naturally.)

How nice of ObamaCo. The only question is, why would Kathy defend it against attacks by everyone, including the liberal media (oh, about 85%, say), who know that after the public protestors and Fox, that they are obviously next (which they knew already from the stage-managed press conferences, the iron fist inside the “campaigns that last forever, like Communist revolutions” velvet glove and nice smiles).

Kathy, you are still missing your red beret or pink hat — autographed by ObamaCo's model (yours, too?):

Oh but they're not muzzling the press, they're exposing Fox. What does the press and Fox have to do with each other? Fox is a “news” outlet like the bailed-out banks are “loan outlets” right now.

Talk about “Not”! …lol..

Must not criticize Barack Hussein Obama, Mmmm Mmmm Mmmmm

Sixteen years of Clintonian politics should be enough for anyone, don’t you think?

Better 8 more years of Clintonian politics, than one more of Obamanation. Bill did a pretty good job governning mostly as a moderate in touch with the nation and not a left-winger from outter space. He could make deals across the aisles and win some GOP support. I bet Hilliary could keep Nancy Pelosi in line and aware of who was leading the democrats.
