…not to mention webcache. But you would never know if from the way advocates for Obamacare™ act.
They beat people in front of camera.
Their advocates deny words that were recorded on tape.
They use campain workers families as props
And they put plants in audiances that we’ve seen before.
If you want to know why big media is dying it’s because they ignore this and blogs and conservative writers don’t.
…because I went to Barnes and Noble in Leominster Mass today.
If you went back a couple of years or even as little as 6 months you would have a hard time finding books that supported conservatives in any quantity. I had noted time and time again that they were either in hiding or rarely in stock.
But today Dick Morris’ book Catastrophe is prominently displayed. Where only two copies of Michelle Malkin’s Culture of Corruption (my review here) once stood; a stack sits prominently. And where once Mark Levin was not to be found, there sits Liberty and Tyranny basking in the best seller section for all to see and buy.
If these books are selling in the Fitchburg/Leominster Massachusetts area then this president is in REAL trouble.
Well I didn’t expect better when I see Jon Meacham from yesterday and Lawrence O’Donnell that soul of fairness, repeat the canard that Rush started this and take the moment to attack Sarah Palin again.
Still no word on the man who would be Rodney King in the MSM.
It’s one of the reasons I don’t liveblog this show anymore. The Palin stuff was just too much for me.
OMG 1. Al Hunt claims the media is wrong on the opposition being astroturfing the crowds!
OMG 2. Tom Colburn is on next, this should be interesting!
8:25 a.m. Colburn attacks entrenched congress rather than a democratic one as the real reason for spending issues. That is pretty true since both republicans and democrats are willing to spend when given the chance. He must be a calming influence since Lawrence O’Donnell just gave Gingrich credit for spending costs and Colburn corrected him that he only cut for one year.
Colburn seems to think this “healthcare” can be done in a different way than the Obama way. This guy just radiates honesty.
8:26 A really great exchange between an e-mail and Al Hunt. The e-mail states that at least an Insurance company can be fought but the government can’t so easy. Hunt counters that he had all kinds of hell fighting insurance companies with his sick child. That is good point in both directions but Hunt forgets that eventually he found a insurance company that he liked.
8:41 a.m. the “both sides” BS is going on.
8:43 a.m. Great line by Joe to O’Donnell: “You’ve told me for years that these were the tactics of the left and now that conservatives are using them it’s a national disgrace?”
8:44 a.m. They repeat the Nazi symbol canard.
8:46 a.m. They mention Pelosi after Limbaugh again as if he started it.
On Meet the Press’ roundtable the first clip they played was Rush commenting on Pelsoi and saying that they are more like Nazi’s that the protesters. The “Conservative” David Brooks and Jon Meacham of Newsweek called him insane and attacked Sarah Palin as Crazy too.
No mention of what is actually in the bill, no mention that the Speaker of the House first claimed protesters were carrying Swastikas. Not a word about the astroTurfing of the left or the SEIU beatings. David Gregory served up the desired clip and got the phony response.
When the media asks why it is not believed or trusted this is it. They are not reporters, they are advocates.
Update: Howie Kurtz and Linda Douglas play the game too!
