Mad Dogs and Lap Dogs: 60 Minutes
President Obama doesn’t like dissent and he didn’t get much of it when he appeared with Hillary for a slobbery 60 Minutes interview. The president requested the interview with Steve Kroft because, as Kroft told Piers Morgan, …“he knows we’re not going to play gotcha”.
In another interview with the owner of The New Republic (also a former fundraiser), Obama trashed Fox News – again.
And here’s a Connor Friedersdorf column from the Atlantic about Steve Kroft’s “softball interviews”.
What Difference Does It Make?!
President Obama takes credit for killing Bin Laden. He claimed al Qaeda was “on it’s heels“.When an al Qaeda allied group killed Ambassador Stevens in Benghazi the white house blamed it on an obscure internet video. The video maker went to jail and Obama got re-elected. What difference does it make?
Gun Props
The president used children as props while he signed 23 executive orders aimed at controlling guns.
Meanwhile, the NRA ran an ad questioning why the president’s daughters are protected from shooters while other school children are not. Obviously, the president’s family deserves special protection but White House spokesman Carney took offense that the Obama girls were being “used as pawns in a political fight”.
That’s a job for somebody else’s children. Each of whom has a $50,000 share of the national debt.
Al Gore Jazeera
Al Gore sold Current TV to Al Jazeera last week. Al Jazeera is funded by Qatar, an oil kingdom flush with black gold.
Global Warming believers are fond of accusing deniers of being funded by the oil industry. So when the believers’ true prophet, Al Gore, took a $100 million profit on the sale of Current TV to Al Jazeera it made for an easy cartoon lay-up.
Eat the Rich
The tax hike on the rich to avoid the fiscal cliff will bring in 60 billion dollars. This year’s deficit is a trillion dollars. The president doesn’t want to cut spending. Stay tuned.
