When you lose Chris Matthews ...

The NPR TAPES

“ So it's more complicated than saying, 'Where was Obama born?' In Hawaii or not? Is he an American citizen or not?" she asks. Ms. Liley then describes the birthers as conservatives.  [WaTimes] ”

If we can treat NPR as a microcosm of the Democrat Media Complex, and we can, then this is what you call the smoking cigar secreted in Monica's vajayjay.

“   Senior Vice President of NPR Ron Schiller met with individuals he believed to be potential donors. However, undercover video was running during this meeting. In the following clip, Mr. Schiller and his co-worker Betsy Liley describe how NPR covers those who deny climate change is happening. ” Ms. Liley talks about a donor who would only give to NPR if the outlet did not talk to those who believe climate change is not happening: Liley tells Schiller  "It is a complicated thing ... "   How so?  Well  form the science perspective we treat it as settled science, so no problemo ... “ But in politics, our Washington desk, might actually cover it should it resurface as a political issue...this debate." [...] Mr. Schiller chimes in later saying, "The main point here is that it is not our responsibility to present the opinion of a non-scientist through our science desk. All educated scientists accept that climate change as fact. ” Liley continues: “ So it's more complicated than saying, 'Where was Obama born?' In Hawaii or not? Is he an American citizen or not?" she asks. Ms. Liley then describes the birthers as conservatives.  "We're not covering the birthers. We are not covering them. There's a whole movement within the conservative group about questioning something that Obama has said as fact, 'I was born in Hawaii, when it was the United States.' The group that questions this, some of whom are commentators...I don't know any who are Democrats, but they are primarily conservative commentators and people who follow them question if Obama is [a citizen]," she further explains. "I think the challenge in our society now is that we are questioning facts. It's not opinions we are debating. I mean, what are the facts? Is the world flat? Is that the next question we're going to debate?" Ms. Liley wonders. [Full] ” In yesterdays installment, Slate's David Weigel answered his own question "How much damage will this do to NPR" with "Unfortunately for the stingers, Schiller just left NPR for the Aspen Institute."  Did he take Betsy Liley with him?  Did he take NPR's Liberal culture with him?  I see some irony in all this.  Liley and Schiller, albeit unwittingly, have just done for NPR, and by extension the DMC, what Joseph Valachi did for the Mafia.

A case of the "Too Lates"

A wet-back Kenyan at that

What's that word? Unctuous

“ "That's the new Kenyan, Larry. And Kenyan, of course, was code for nigger. But that's where they are. They can't say it out loud. But that's where this whole campaign is going to be." Bill Maher ”

Yeah, we hated Hillary because we can't stand powerful women; we hate Obama because he's a "nigger." Start here Billy Boy. America's first Third World president.

Reporter loses it

"Hissy Fit"

If a reporter is going to allow personal feelings to show, better this than the rolled eyes, smirks, and looks of disgust whenever, say, a "Sarah Palin" is mentioned. At least Gordon Boyd's emotions are the result of him having a moral compass.
