Like a Well-Trained Spaniel
Posted by Gregory of Yardale at October 21, 2009 5:08 PM
The White House wasn't kidding when they bragged about controlling the media. When communication apparatchiks at the White House email Mika Brezinksy during a live broadcast to correct some spin that had offended them as insufficiently obsequious to Dear Reader, Mike obediently pushes the White House talking point.
Well done, Mika. You've earned a pat on the head and a Jerky Treat.
BTW: Obama held a private meeting at the White House with Keith Uberdouche and Rachel Madcow, where both MSDNC hosts were run around a small arena outfitted with ramps and hoops. The White House chef even mixed in a little raw egg with their food to make sure they had nice, shiny coats. Chris Matthews was not invited, because the last time he went to the White House, he got a tingle down his leg and made a mess all over the rug.

Where's my airbag when I need it?

(For the Benefit of Humor-Impaired Lefties, parts of the last paragraph were a joke. The joke relied on making a parallel between the obedience of MSNBC hosts and rigidly trained show dogs. Similarly, my posting of 'The Canada Song' from MST3k was not intended as advocacy for the nuclear destruction of America's hat.)
(For the further benefit of humor-impaired lefties, 'America's hat' is a mildly derogatory way of referring to the country of Canada. Which on a map appears to sit atop the United States in the way a hat might sit upon a person's head.)

So the the WH is putting teleprompters in the ministry of information branch offices?

Did you notice this is not in Hi-Def? The reason is, if you watch it in Hi-Def, you can see the puppet strings attached to the MSNBC talking heads.

Next time it'll be "the White House just I.M.'d us and..."

Doncha hate it when they go and change the Current Truth on ya like that?
Btw, they can email their todies during the show, but can't give Beck a ring? Does that mean Beck is 100% right?

I had never heard of Canada as 'America's Hat," but dang that's funny! At least for those of us with the ability to have a good-natured laugh at ourselves and others...much in the way that many sports or school rivalries rib each other.
*sigh* It gets so tiring having to explain to the Perpetually Offended why something is funny.

Aha. The whole "Hotline to Anita Dunn" Glenn Beck thing is a farce.
He knows they e-mail, and avoids them !
We are on to him now.

How can any of these media people that have a white house ring in their nose have any self-esteem? Pathetic....

'America's hat'

Hey... wait - I'm a native Alaskan (as opposed to an Alaska Native) - does this make Alaska the equivalent of the price tag on Mini Pearl's hat?
I had to ask...

Big hat, small head.

Can you imagine if Bush had done something that goofy? OMG! It would have been all they talked about for weeks. But this freaky, life time email raises a serious question. How many WH flunkies are tasked with fact-checking news programs as they air? This level of government intrusion in broadcasting has to cost some serious ching.

Gregory, is it YOU who is highjacking my name? I was wondering what you were going on about re that Canada song because I never posted there.
So I went to look. Lo and behold a stupid post by "Lao" courtesy of my name highjacker.
I know I have been a thorn in your side Gregory, but name highjacking is certainly admitting it in a particularly blatant fashion. What do you suppose name highjacking accomplishes? Destroys my good name? LOL!!
Will it work better for you if I just adopt "anonymous"? Will it work better for you if I use a different name every time I post? Either way, I will still stick it to you and Van Helsing and anyone else just as much as I always do.
I find it much more interesting to evolve a dialogue but hey, if the right doesn't want to play that way, I'm adaptable.
Posted by: Lao at October 21, 2009 9:31 PM
The problem with me is that I can't make a coherent argument that convinces anyone who is undecided.
Like the rest of the trolls, I show up here every day, make an ass of myself, declare the argument won, then put my feet up and crack open a beer for a job well done.
The idea that I'm "sticking it" to anyone here is laughable. Laugh with me, everyone. Ha ha ha!

You're a naughty, naughty girl. You dirty little slut.
Posted by: Chairman Lao at October 21, 2009 9:31 PM- "I know I have been a thorn in your side Gregory"
Oooo. Kinky.

I bet you are. Mouth. Ear. Nostril. Bunghole. Anywhere, anytime.

I'm GLAD this dumb bitch is off of the air now that Scarbourough tanked. Nit and Wit gone. There IS a god.

Speaking of "news" persons, did you hear about Contessa Brewer introducing her guest, Jesse Jackson, as "Al Sharpton?" To the libtards, one black guy is just like another. As The Rev corrected her, her facial expression changed not in the least.

Depends.

You'll note that no Liberal, including LAO, have objected to this blaitant act of news control. That's because they APROVE of toltalitarianism, but are too stupid to recognise it!
Posted by: KHarn at October 22, 2009 2:01 PM
Why yes, of course, I'm sure that anytime someone DOESN'T respond to a thread it means they tacitly approve of totalitarianism.
A right wing mind at work.

So...still no substantive response, anon?
Btw, would you please choose an effing screen name? It doesn't take that much brain power. Let me suggest you call yourself "Uberturd."
