that shows a generic republican would get 50% of the vote vs Obama today? That republicans don’t like Sarah Palin.
And people wonder why people don’t read Newsweek?
Mika get him some of that Starbucks coffee on set, STAT!
Update it’s things like this too:
This is a really cynical post:
Politically this is going to be played up, international disaster relief is one of those truly bi-partisan things that the US does best and we are going to do it. The president and the Sec of State are going to get a lot of positive airtime concerning this crisis. That is not a bad thing, particularly if the relief is delivered promptly and effectively. We should be very pleased and proud that it happens. but in terms of cynicism, this is a political windfall for them both. Today on Morning Joe they are touching on this.
This will also give the media a chance to ignore some stories they don’t want to deal with, the health care back door deals, Harry Reid and Bill Clinton’s remarks, the foibles of Martha Coakley. The sec of state is unlikely going to be taking questions about her husband’s remarks and if anyone is as foolish to ask she will be able to turn it right around for dealing with something like this during a disaster.
Watch the Coakley campaign try to tie Pat Robinson to Scott Brown or press him to comment on it in the mistaken hope that any criticism of Robinson will hurt him among the right.
This also gives the president a perfect excuse not to intervene in Massachusetts, he is much too busy in the crisis.
Watch the banks and a lot of the companies who gave large unpopular bonuses throw money at the disaster relief and make sure it is publicized well.
One thing that will not get the press that it should will be how Americans will open up their wallets, slim as they are these days, to help out in Haiti. I wonder what Mr. Penn & Mr. Glover will have to say about that?
Ok that’s enough cynicism, go the the Anchoress for a good roundup and an excellent suggestion for your relief dollars.
After all President Obama is a Chicago Pol. A guy who acts like this is a perfect fit for the broadcast board of governors if you are going to do thing the Chicago way.
This guy has apparently apologized for what the Globe and the AP says is a “stumble”
Can someone explain to me why Meehan claimed to have been “a little too aggressive” if McCormick only stumbled? I’d answer it myself but I have a house to pick up with company coming tomorrow.
Vote Brown.
Q: Judging by the MSM coverage what is the advice that Brit Hume should have given Tiger Woods?
After all it seems that the forgiveness that Christ offers has it’s greatest effect primarily after death, but the forgiveness that being a liberal democrat brings covers you at once.
It covered Ted Kennedy , it covered Bill Clinton and now it covers Harry Reid. It doesn’t cover Don Imus or George Allen or Trent Lott.
Robert Stacy’s brilliant post not withstanding it’s not mine or Glenn Reynolds, or Andrew Sullivan’s forgiveness that matters, its the MSM’s.
…and that MSM is an ally of the Democratic party. The party that defended slavery, the party that preached secession, the party of Separate but equal, Jim Crow and Segregation forever. That party has decided to give Harry Reid absolution so the media will too.
It is standards like this that polarizes this country. They should be ashamed.
Update: Adrienne is right on the money:
I’m so tired of people taking offense and railing over each other about every perceived slight. “I’m offended” has become modern man’s mantra.
I’m with her.
