Talking about Media Malpractice.
Ziegler’s follow-up post at Big Hollywood.
Gibbs: Obama’s speech to be Rubenesque.
This is becoming a pattern. If there’s a Super Bowl, there has to be an Obama ad. He’s going to interrupt your viewing of Heroes. Preempt “Rudolph”. Whatever.
What kind of weenie gets on TV on Mardi Gras to give a “sober” speech?
A not as Rubenesque and not all safe for work celebration of Mardi Gras from Brazil.
Oh, dear. Dodd’s humble Irish cottage possibly undervalued in his representations. (h/t Sister Toldjah)
Now that is a smack-down.
Thwap!
I have no idea who John Ziegler is. Over at Hot Air they’re all like… duh John Ziegler. You know… John Ziegler. And I’m like who? Well if I ever commented there I would be like who? Well no mores. I can tell you that Mr. Ziegler was a non-FM “talk show host” from Los Angeles. It says so here. He is credited with moving the John Kerry “stuck in Iraq” thing. That was a big deal, cause we don’t have news media what do that sort of thing. Then he did a documentary called Blocking The Path to 9/11 that was a documentary about a miniseries. That’s very meta. Now he is working his Media Malpractice… How Obama Got Elected documentary.
I have to remember to watch this clip when I get home.
oh. link
Baracky’s speeches are a lot less about the stuff Baracky says than they are about what MSNBC and NPR and other dirty socialist media peoples say his speeches say I think. They’re definitely not about what Gibbs says they’re about, Gibbs being widely understood to be a doof and all.
Whatever. Big Hollywood is where Red Dawn fan boys go to fap.
Besides, the stock market is rallying. That whimpering sigh you hear is the death of a talking point.
Kaz doesn’t seem to know the difference between weather and climate.
Oh, goody. DJI only down 48% off its high. What a relief.
How to lower your poll numbers on an easy weekly payment plan.
Fat Tuesday!
Those clips from the view are highly entertaining. Watching Baba Wawa poking Ziegler in the chest, and Joy being reduced to shouting “we won!”, both totally clueless about their making Ziegler’s point, is pure comedy.
One that will never change, right, Kaz?
You seem to like trends. Here’s one: Our President is full of fail. He is epic. I’ve never seen anyone so downright plummetous in my life.
Wow. I had never seen Nora O’Donell before(I never watch MSNBC). She is a shallow little talking head, isn’t she? She has that same blank I-have-no-clue look in her eyes that a deer on the highway has.
I’ll bet she was amazingly popular at fraternity parties in college.
It’s right up there with the perception of the sun traveling around the earth, ain’t it Kaz?
Sure I do. The stock market is the weather. The perception of conservatism as a failed and pointless ideology is the climate.
Hows global warming working out for you weather experts over there on the left side?
paul ruben-esque?
“Sure I do. The stock market is the weather. The perception of conservatism as a failed and pointless ideology is the climate.”
That’s the most asinine comment I’ve read in months. Kudos.
Climate is a perception. I get it now.
Perception is a social construct. Let’s just legislate this all into shape.
A majority of polls indicate otherwise. I suppose you meant “in my mind”. Or whatever mind Rush Limbaugh and Eric Cantor allow you to have.
My perception is that Baracky is inimical to economic prosperity and individual liberty cause of he’s a socialist. Which is a failed and pointless ideology. You can either read a book or wait and see. Your choice I guess.
Asian shares slump after Dow hits 1997 low
Kaz seems to feel that he can predict the climate. He should be on the Weather Channel. Preferably standing in a hurricane.
Everybody stand clear!!
Kaz threw down the Rush taunt. Kaz knows no one can withstand that one.
It is so on.
“Besides, the stock market is rallying. ”
It got back the 2,000 points it lost since O!bama pulled ahead in the Presidential race?
All in one day?
WOW!
Are they already Alinskying Cantor? I don’t think Baracky’s media has reached a consensus about that yet.
polls … Polls … POLLS … POOOOOOOOOOLLS!!ELEVENTY11!!
All manner of conclusions may be drawn by polls. If the polls have spoken then STFU, ‘Thuglican chickenhawks!!
Kaz is a genius in his own mind … where the cartoon conservatives live.
“The perception of conservatism as a failed and pointless ideology is the climate.”
No, that’s insanity.
“I suppose you meant “in my mindâ€. Or whatever mind Rush Limbaugh and Eric Cantor allow you to have.”
…says the obamabot.
Does the DNC still use faxes for their talking points?
trolls … Trolls … TROLLS!!
Look! Woody Woodpecker is beating Rush Limbaugh with a giant toadstool! Sean Hannity is porking Porky Pig! Eric Cantor is playing bridge with the Powderpuff Girls!
IN KAZ’S HEAD!!!
How can Obama, fresh off signing into law the largest spending bill this country has ever seen and promising to end some of the most significant tax cuts ever put into law, invoke Reagan with a straight face?
He is all style, no substance, that’s how.
Cantor is my district rep.
He’s more doofusy than is generally allowed around here – he’s super popular, super popular. So they are going to want to train wreck him as fast as may be.
I don’t plan to listen to the sermon tonight. I really don’t give a damn what O! says. What he is attempting to do to this country speaks volumes.
Ooh up over 7300. Almost in Carter Country. What will Kaz say tomorrow?
[…] via Protein Wisdom. […]
“Deficits don’t matter” – Dick Cheney.
Get this: Ronald Reagan actually raised taxes when it made sense.
“I don’t care if raising the capital gains tax decreases revenue. This is about fairness.” – Barack “Cap Gains Dong” Obama
That was right after Reagan signed the single largest spending bill in the country’s history, right, Kaz?
“We have 57 states” – Barack “IQ” Obama
“Tim Geithner will wow you with details and give you tremendous confidence in our plan” – Barack “Character Judge” Obama
“Oh, and did I mention, I’m black?” – Barack “Post-racial” Obama
“Bush may have produced an 800 billion dollar deficit in eight years but I just doubled it in only 2 months!!” Barack “Mine’s Bigger” Obama.
“It’s not surprising, then, they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them, or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations.” — Candidate Barack “the Billionaire’s Brown-noser” Obama
“Bill Clinton only has two tax cheats nominated: I’ve had three and one under federal investigation!” Barack “Transparency” Obama.
“George Bush only had Pat Robertson and Jerry Falwell haranguing about gays and Teletubbies. My pastor of twenty years damns America and thinks the CIA invented AIDS to kill black folk!” Barack “Churchgoin'” Obama.
““Deficits don’t matter†– Dick Cheney.”
Barak Obama agrees. Isn’t that fucking frightening?
I didn’t lose anything, Kaz, as I didn’t cast a vote for president. So suck mah balz.
We lost?
WE LOST??????? Somebody alert the NYT editorial board.
Now, it’s invoking McCain? Kaz has got to be the dumbest of dumbasses…one assclown. If not, we may have a new winner.
Uh, Kaz, everyone lost. You’ll figure that out one of these days, I think.
No, no Sdferr. It’s like a badminton game. There has to be a winner and a loser. I’d have used a football metaphor, but I’m guessing kaz never played any football.
“George Bush regularly butchered the English language but I thought they spoke Arabic in Afghanistan!” Barack “Articulate” Obama.
The AP sees the future:
WASHINGTON (AP) – Standing before a nation on an economic precipice, President Barack Obama aimed to balance candor with can-do Tuesday night in his first address to a joint session of Congress. Millions more anxious Americans were tuning in on TV.
Kaz is boring to me to where I want a snack. Not Combos cause those have weird goop in them. Not Healthy Choice ice cream sammich cause I’m not feeling the sugar thing. Not yogurt cause I had that already. I think I will make a grilled cheese.
Why not? He was, after all, your candidate in this “right of center” nation.
Get this: Ronald Reagan actually raised taxes when it made sense.
Get this: Raising taxes in a recession, doubling the deficit, increasing the size and scope of government, screwing with free trade, and trying to prevent people from losing their houses DOES NOT MAKE SENSE.
It’s exactly what Japan did to remedy the government-induced housing bubble over there, and their economy has been moribund ever since.
EVERYBODY OVER THE CLIFF! ENJOY THE FREEFALL!
A poll. h/t WeeklyStandardBlog.
To loosely paraphrase the immortal Al Czervik.
Polls and cemetaries are the most useless and wasteful contraptions invented by man. Both are used to seperate fools from their wealth.
The dirty socialist thug prezzident and his minions will cite polls all day long to try and cover for their naked grab to stay in power and to keep stupid worshippers, like Kaz, enslaved.
BWAH HA HA HA haaaaaa. and it’s even Jennifer Loven.
Kaz=parsnip=alphie=talking telephone pole
“You know,†said McCain, “there’s been tremendous turmoil in our financial markets and Wall Street and it is — people are frightened by these events. Our economy, I think, still the fundamentals of our economy are strong.
“Not when I get done with it!”
-Barack “I know nothing about economics” Obama
Barack “Articulate†Obama.
Barack, he thinks that the capital of Canada is Iowa, and that we have 57 states, and that you can spend your way out of a recession.
Kaz, do your effing homework. McCain won a plurality. All of the real conservatives were split up between Mitt, Fred, and Rudy. And it’ll be a cold day in Baghdad before anyone on this blog praises McCain.
“Why not? He was, after all, your candidate in this “right of center†nation”
Epic fail. He was never my candidate. I haven’t had a candidate, in well, ever. It’s always who sucks less. Oh well.
Kaz, the Congress raises and lowers taxes, not the president. They appropriate money for the budget. Neither Reagan nor Obama can or could spend a dime otherwise. You might not remember, but the market was considerably higher when the Democrats took control of Congress in 2006.
Thanks for stopping by and venting. Stick around, you might be surprised to discover that not all of us approved of GWB’s spending, nor are all of us McCain fans.
“Why not? He was, after all, your candidate in this “right of center†nation.”
You don’t know much, do you there, genius?
Kaz, give me your candid opinion of Barack’s commandeering of the census. That strike you as a good thing?
“Yup, Reagan raised taxes. Which party had the majority in both houses back then, again?”
Kaz “dumb as a pile of kindling” Kaz.
Here Kaz, read ’em and weep:

(h/t Insty)
I think we should all aim to balance candor with can-do. I know I struggle with this.
Kaz = parsnip = actus = alphie, etc.
“He was, after all, your candidate in this “right of center†nation.”
No, he wasn’t my candidate, you cretin. I can’t stand the guy. Nor can many who comment here regularly nor the host.
Standing in a nation on an economic precipice, munching thoughtfully on a grilled cheese sammich, happyfeet anxiously awaited his socialist dipshit president’s talky talk what was gonna be on the tv later. Damn. See that’s a lie cause I’m not really anxious. I’m just curious mostly cause Baracky is gonna talk about his inheritance is what Jennifer Loven says. Jen says not only did the recession emerge on Bush’s watch, the Bush approach wasn’t the right one. It’s all Bush’s fault. Yay! That’s grim enough to be honest but optimistic enough to be inspiring I think. Damn inspiring, really. I might could go for another grilled cheese.
Huh. Curious. Brightbluescrotum faker dude lost his job.
ta da!
Is Jennifer Loven trying to make Leni Riefenstahl look like a piker?
How would you know anything about the “mindset of ‘the base’ at that time”, Kaz? Huh?
Kaz = parsnip = actus = alphie, etc.
Has anyone actually seen them and Ric Caric in the same place at the same time? Hah! Thought not.
And another thing, how would you know whether the regular commenters here are part of “the base”?
um, if you want to talk to “the base” why are you here? people keep trying to tell you you’re making stupid assumptions about this blog and the commenters here. you might want to take the hint for a change.
Kaz has no fucking idea what it’s talking about. It will be helpful to recognize that right up front.
Oh, so you’re the idiot responsible for this mess?
aaaaw, that’s so cute, Moby. I’m not allowed to register for a party in my state. WHAT DO I DO!? HOW WILL I KNOW WHAT ANY PARTY IS DOING???
So a variant of the “I was a lifelong Republican until……” card has been played.
I was expecting something more original.
Play “O-BINGO†with Obama Tonight!
Now I’m anxious. If you’re standing in a nation what is on an economic precipice and the candor and the can-do get out of balance … what do you think happens? Bad things that’s what.
Oh. Wait. Huh?
Oh, Jen. Jen Jen Jen Jen Jen. There’s skillful propaganda and then there’s… you. Just keep practicing, sweetheart. You’ll get there.
Ah, the scales have fallen from your eyes, have they, moby Kaz?
yeah,oh well.
maggie, you can whine all you want. The simple truth is that up until the 2006 midterm losses, GWB was the epitome of conservatism and could do no wrong.
Afterwords, he became every right-wing blogger’s favorite RINO scapegoat. This actually happened.
honk-shoo. I showed you where this blog brought up his spending as a problem way before the midterms and you dismissed it. bye.
OUTLAW!
The simple truth is that Kaz makes assertions into his own “facts” and then expects someone to agree with them. This actually happened.
Huh? George Bush is was and forever will be super-cool and an all-around top-notch leader I think. It’s McCain what’s ignoble and cowardly. And gruesome old and I think he might could have Alzheimer’s.
Aggressive lying by assertion and moronic to boot. I’m inclined to agree with Roland, niccolai, et al. it’s monkeyboy come back for more of the same.
happyfeet, you soooo need to go find you something here. RTO gave me a coffee mug. it makes me giggle.
Sooooo Kaz, what’s your current political affiliation?
Damn, maggie, them GWB stogies ain’t cheap. Bet RTO won’t be getting 25 for Christmas.
“The simple truth is that up until the 2006 midterm losses, GWB was the epitome of conservatism and could do no wrong.”
What you been smokin’,dude? Most conservatives admired his toughness on terror, domestic policy? Not so much. You really have to revise your idea that classic liberals are a monolithic bloc.
Now. tell me more of your theories on economics. I haven’t had a good laugh today.
Bring something to the table or get the hell out.
Do you feel stupid for having thought that, Kaz? You look kind of stupid saying it.
Are you current on your mortgage payments, Kaztard?
well, that and the stink, SW.
true story, when I was tiny (three or four I think) I tried eating a cigar I found on my parent’s dresser. I can still remember that. I was all, “this smells lovely” then…”oh GOD WHERE’S ALL MY SPIT?”
Do you have any investments whatsoever, Kaztard?
Open the old cigar-box, get me a Cuba stout,
For things are running crossways, and Maggie and I are out.
We quarrelled about Havanas — we fought o’er a good cheroot,
And I knew she is exacting, and she says I am a brute.
Open the old cigar-box — let me consider a space;
In the soft blue veil of the vapour musing on Maggie’s face.
Maggie is pretty to look at — Maggie’s a loving lass,
But the prettiest cheeks must wrinkle, the truest of loves must pass.
There’s peace in a Larranaga, there’s calm in a Henry Clay;
But the best cigar in an hour is finished and thrown away —
Thrown away for another as perfect and ripe and brown —
But I could not throw away Maggie for fear o’ the talk o’ the town!
Maggie, my wife at fifty — grey and dour and old —
With never another Maggie to purchase for love or gold!
And the light of Days that have Been the dark of the Days that Are,
And Love’s torch stinking and stale, like the butt of a dead cigar —
The butt of a dead cigar you are bound to keep in your pocket —
With never a new one to light tho’ it’s charred and black to the socket!
Open the old cigar-box — let me consider a while.
Here is a mild Manila — there is a wifely smile.
Which is the better portion — bondage bought with a ring,
Or a harem of dusky beauties, fifty tied in a string?
Counsellors cunning and silent — comforters true and tried,
And never a one of the fifty to sneer at a rival bride?
Thought in the early morning, solace in time of woes,
Peace in the hush of the twilight, balm ere my eyelids close,
This will the fifty give me, asking nought in return,
With only a Suttee’s passion — to do their duty and burn.
This will the fifty give me. When they are spent and dead,
Five times other fifties shall be my servants instead.
The furrows of far-off Java, the isles of the Spanish Main,
When they hear my harem is empty will send me my brides again.
I will take no heed to their raiment, nor food for their mouths withal,
So long as the gulls are nesting, so long as the showers fall.
I will scent ’em with best vanilla, with tea will I temper their hides,
And the Moor and the Mormon shall envy who read of the tale of my brides.
For Maggie has written a letter to give me my choice between
The wee little whimpering Love and the great god Nick o’ Teen.
And I have been servant of Love for barely a twelvemonth clear,
But I have been Priest of Cabanas a matter of seven year;
And the gloom of my bachelor days is flecked with the cheery light
Of stums that I burned to Friendship and Pleasure and Work and Fight.
And I turn my eyes to the future that Maggie and I must prove,
But the only light on the marshes is the Will-o’-the-Wisp of Love.
Will it see me safe through my journey or leave me bogged in the mire?
Since a puff of tobacco can cloud it, shall I follow the fitful fire?
Open the old cigar-box — let me consider anew —
Old friends, and who is Maggie that I should abandon you?
A million surplus Maggies are willing to bear the yoke;
And a woman is only a woman, but a good Cigar is a Smoke.
Light me another Cuba — I hold to my first-sworn vows.
If Maggie will have no rival, I’ll have no Maggie for Spouse!
The Betrothed by Rudyard Kipling
Oops. Linky poops.
oh. I remember a lot of that stuff from early on, maggie. That’s from these people… but maybe I’ll wait to order from his library I think. This is very cool though. But I can definitely see placing a big t-shirt order when the library gift shop gets in gear.
I’d really like to send one of those to the Secretary of State.

“The simple truth is that up until the 2006 midterm losses, GWB was the epitome of conservatism and could do no wrong.”

Kas,
Some free advice (worth at least twice that).
Never go full retard.
Yessiree Bob, the journey from “registered Republican” to one of socialist, marxist, or fascist is a short one indeed.
Pull the other one. Not my finger, damn it!
Not only was he a “registered Republican”, but I’ll wager he was a “concerned Christian conservative” as well.
“maggie, you can whine all you want. The simple truth is that up until the 2006 midterm losses, GWB was the epitome of conservatism and could do no wrong.”
Not. A. Clue.
“I’m not sure. Between Socialism, Marxism and Fascism it’s really hard to decide on a favorite.”
I’m guessing fascist.
Always a favorite of the dumbass reactionary lefty.
Ziegler is a total ass clown. What a fucking joke. Media Bias?? Are you kidding me? Palin is a twat with an IQ of 5. She’s spent the last 4 months returning clothes, paying back taxes, reimbursing Alaska for her childrens travel on the state’s dime, and finally playing the victim. Ziegler needs to get his ass kicked. But like all rethugs, he’s probably run away like a bitch.
norethug, have you seen the video?
Gosh, you sound familiar. You’re an awfully tough guy . . . on teh intartubes.
Sarah Palin would beat norethug’s ass silly, I think.
Obama Bingo!

[how’s that?]
Media Bias?? Are you kidding me?
It’s not just the dirty socialist bias anymores, it’s the synchronicity of them all being on the same message at the same time. Very creepy. Read AP propagandist Jennifer Loven’s article again.
And then go look at the message what the dirty socialist kumquats at NPR want to make sure you get…
Wow. That’s the exact same gloss on Dear Leader’s speech from the dirty socialist kumquats at NPR as what AP propagandist Jennifer Loven did! That’s so neat. Jinx! Hah!
MMmm kumquats, especially if you don’t peel them and just keep popping them into your mouth like skittley grapes.
haps – they are getting very Kim Jong-Il with President Obama. After the first month.
The levels of hilarity that will ensue will match the product launch of the Edsel. Yes, in the future, ‘Obama’ will be to politics what ‘Edsel’ is to automobiles – a smoking crater and a punchline.
Expectations > ralizations; by orders of magnitude.
FTFH
Oh, I can tell you why, Kaz: It’s the inevitable decline of the constitutional republic that used to value rights and property more than it now does a hollow perception of safety and the enacting of greed and theft as policy. It’s when your kind figures out it can vote itself my stuff by using the power of the government to do it.
I suggest in fairly urgent terms that you understand why and grow up.
dicentra,

oh, this is gonna take forever, isn’t it?
oh. Seeing him on the tv, he doesn’t look anything like a monkey at all. I think that Sharpton guy is having a little fun with us.
He’s so dramatic. Drama drama drama. He wants me to know that we will rebuild. Like I’m some kind of Katrina victim. That’s silly and I think he knows it. This sounds very canned to me.

My BH is watching. We’ll see how long she lasts. Good thing she’s not doing a drinking game with the O-Bingo cards.
Has he said, “As I said before…”, yet?
Nope. But I just got “save or create jobs”!
Did he actually say “alternative energy” or did he just list it?
He did mention the “95% tax cuts,” but not in the exact words.
Whaddaya mean the banks haven’t been lending? My own MaMa just bought a new house and a new car, no problem.
Of course, she’s actually got good credit.

She’s spent the last 4 months returning clothes, paying back taxes, reimbursing Alaska for her childrens travel on the state’s dime, and finally playing the victim.
How did we miss finding her a Cabinet position?
“GWB was the epitome of conservatism and could do no wrong.”
You lying shitweasel, you. He was NEVER the epitome of conservatism. Never. I realize you’re a moby, but that line was just absolute bullshit. “The epitome of conservatism” doesn’t create a gigantic new entitlement program. The “epitome of conservatism” doesn’t increase the size of the miserable department of education as no other preseident has done before him. Please, if you’re gonna be a moby, at least be an intelligent one.
MOE BEE!!!!
