Biden, telling the cheerleaders “What you do on the hard wood is totally amazing to me.”
Biden, I’m sorry lefties…If a bird had his brain it would fly backwards.
Now they are finding out there was a problem with the security companys guarding our ambassidor in Libya. There was a contract dispute, so basicly, the US cheaped out on security resulting in the embassy being burned and our ambassidor tortured and killed. Do you see the lame stream media reporting this? NO! So far out of the administration….”we will look into this further later next month.” Sorry the poor guy died and loused up your election.
@Raz, Good Morning Raz, Rats, and Mike
In relation to your post Raz
Something else the MSM was failing to report on
*White House widening covert war in North Africa
WASHINGTON (AP) — Small teams of special operations forces arrived at American embassies throughout North Africa in the months before militants launched the fiery attack that killed the U.S. ambassador in Libya. The soldiers’ mission: Set up a network that could quickly strike a terrorist target or rescue a hostage.
But the teams had yet to do much counterterrorism work in Libya, though the White House signed off a year ago on the plan to build the new military task force in the region and the advance teams had been there for six months, according to three U.S. counterterror officials and a former intelligence official. All spoke only on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the strategy publicly.
The counterterror effort indicates that the administration has been worried for some time about a growing threat posed by al-Qaida and its offshoots in North Africa. But officials say the military organization was too new to respond to the attack in Benghazi, where the administration now believes armed al-Qaida-linked militants surrounded the lightly guarded U.S. compound, set it on fire and killed Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans.
Story at the AP
It’s funny on the righty talk radio programs this morning.
“Why is Obama talkin like a black guy?
Oh Lordy!! Silly programs with stupid callers. Makes my morning commute so much more entertaining.
Wonder if this sludge drudge will boost Sean Insanitty’s ratings for yesterday seeing how desperate the righty is for a video of their own against Obama since the “i dont care about 47% of Americans video is destroying Willard and now the only 30% want the american dream Paul Ryan video is taking off.
I think Hannity must be getting a little worried. He had to get with Drudge to tweet about a bombshell video that was covered in 2007 by Fox on the day it occurred.
Is the Daily Rundown supposed to be a news program? I don’t think Chuck knows anything else but reporting on Romney & Obama & the election.
@
Jeff
You got that backwards, 30% want the welfare state is what Ryan says and come on that is pretty accurate.
@Papa
———————————-
DB you were right as far as the speech cadence and accent, totally phony.
———————————-
I seem many politicians adopt an accent when talking to a specific group of people. I remember Hillary Clinton once had this terrible southern drawl in one of her speeches during the primaries in 2008, Bush Jr was another known to adopt a drawl when he was talking in certain places in the south
Morning Moncon, Jeff, & TJ
They are expecting close to 100 Million to view tonights debate.
WOW!
Morning to you too Mark
Everyone got their popcorn ready for tonight? I have class and Church but will be back in time for the debate
Hillbilly wrote: “…I can’t believe some can’t hear the race baiting in his speech…”
Those some probably believe that Obama walks on water. His stale farts are to them “breaths of fresh air”.
@
Jeff
The things he says about the Stafford Act are untrue and as a sitting Senator he knows it’s untrue. He is saying white Republicans are bigoted and they treat you differently because of the color of your skin. He is using a lie to push that narrative. The government forked over tens of billions of dollars to help rebuild in New Orleans.
He says it in a way I have never heard him speak before. The word phony comes to mind.
@ Steve
That’s what I mean, why isn’t Chuck Todd asking those questions to his panel? It deserves to be asked by everyone, irregardless of your position.
I did Bing Stafford Waivers for Katrina and found a CRS report stating a number of Federal Agencies did waive regulatory requirements or extended deadlines for victims of Katrina. So I take it as him misleading people and playing the race card to do it. Shameful!

“Why is Obama talkin like a black guy?
I just want to know which way he DOES talk? That’s all very simple, which is the REAL way he talks?? I dont care which one it is I JUST WANT TO KNOW THE REAL ONE!
Leno on Biden: ‘Which Candidate Is He Campaigning For? I’m Confused!’
Jay Leno again waded deeply into presidential politics on Tuesday evening.
Commenting on Vice President Joe Biden’s “middle class has been buried” gaffe, the NBC Tonight Show host said during his opening monologue, “I’m sorry, which candidate is he campaigning for? I’m confused”
@AppleStinx, Rats, and Moncon
The problem with the entire concept is in relationship to his 2008 speech
“We are not a White America, or a Black America, We are THE United States of America”
And that context my friends, that video last night shot that speech to kingdom come.
And anyone can check, the Stafford Act was issued for New Orleans and has been issued for all major disasters since it’s conception. And as a Senator in 2007 he had to know that fact. That is dividing people.
Rass this morning
Obama 49%
Romney 47%
Swing States 50-45% President Obama
Dag!
BBL… I forgot to print up her Science lesson
Good Morning.
I’m not a Hannity fan , & , I haven’t watched the video yet, but, I ‘ve read all your comments.
I ‘m going to type about something I do know & watch the video later.

Journolist Exposed: Documents
I remember this story very well. It was called ‘agenda journalism’. I’m more apt to call it , pure & simple, propaganda.
One of the Liberal media’s goals on ‘JournoList’ was they plotted to bury the Jeremiah Wright Story in 2008. This gem stuck in my mind at the time. Spencer Ackerman of The Washington Independent, stated “If the right forces us all to either defend Wright or tear him down, no matter what we choose, we lose the game they’ve put upon us. Instead, take one of them — Fred Barnes, Karl Rove, who cares – and call them racists”. Another comment…. he fantasized about putting conservatives through plate-glass windows. Another Journolist member ,Jonathan Strong , talked about wanting the federal government to shut down Fox News.
Similarly, the controversy over the now-defunct list serve of several hundred liberal journalists, activists and academics Journolist group does not cloud the fact that a number of its members were clearly playing partisan politics, attacking Republicans and suppressing unsavory facts about Obama.
Journolist’s founder, the Washington Post’s, Ezra Klein, freely admits it was intended to be a gathering place for lefty journalists and their like-minded allies in universities and think tanks. Washington Post management has control of the archive, so, it is really unavailable to us, but, many of the Jounolist names are already known , as well as some of their emails.
This was journalist corruption , & , I have no doubt it is still going on today. Why ?
The known members of JournoList, a conspiracy to manipulate media coverage to favor leftist positions, now number 151. Which means that about 2/3 of the list remain covert operatives, still functioning without public knowledge of their membership.
Among those taking part in JournoList was Jared Bernstein, an adviser to the Obama campaign in 2008 who today works as the top economic aide to Vice President Joe Biden
