Tucker Carlson, on his show tonight, describing the Clinton campaign's press relations . . .
TUCKER CARLSON: They're awful to the media: let's be totally blunt. They're awful to the press. They treat the press like enemies. [Clinton Communication Director] Howard Wolfson's always calling around threatening people. Threatening people! News organizations! They do that! People hate you if you do that. I mean, they've earned the enmity of the press, in my view. They have. I mean, it's been hard but they've done it.
The affable Eugene Robinson of the Washington Post tried to take the edge off.
EUGENE ROBINSON: They're not the warmest and cuddliest campaign. You know, the Obama campaign has had no history --
Clinton backer Hilary Rosen cut in to chastise Carlson.
HILARY ROSEN: Well that's a grown-up thing, Tucker.
Carslon was implacable . . .

What? The Clintons treating people like crap, bullying them, and crushing loyal souls?? Why, that sounds like something Obama would come up with ——

Brian Willians and Tim Russert will be moderating the 20th and hopefully final democrat debate, I mean how many debates does it take to talk about the same ideas?
On Brian's Evening News (NBC) tonight he spoke with Tim regarding Obama's surge in the Texas and Ohio polls. Tim and Brian could not wait to discuss how Hillary has to come up with a big something to make things finally surge for her.
So, I'm thinking, why are these two democrats making it obvious to viewers that perhaps they may aid and abet her during tomorrow's debate.
They should recluse themselves if they are in her camp, or in her "testicle lock-box".

Wolfson looks like one of those gay bar bullies I saw in a biker movie about trans-engendered Democrat politicians.
I’ll bet this prissy little puke thinks his Shiite don’t stink, any takers?

Anyone who would hire Wolfson, Blumenthal, Carville, or Begala individually would have to be of low moral character. Imagine someone who has hired all four.

Stunning, I was speaking to a Obama supporter who use to be a big Hillary supporter.
We were talking about the campaign and she commented on how mean spirited Hillary has been. When I told her she wasn't telling me something I didn't already know about her, she responded by saying, "Yes, but it was okay as long as they were attacking Republicans."

Not to mention the evil "Pelican," a very dangerous black bag thug/operative/hitman type, employed by Hillary to shut up Bill's bimbos. Anthony Pellicano is on trial as we speak. He had a safe full of high explosives and illegal wiretaps all over L.A.

Here’s the deal as Ross Perot would say... the LSM kissed up to the Clintoons when they were the only horse they could win with. Now that super thoroughbred OBlama has arrived the old thuggish twist-arm tactics just don’t cut the mustard anymore with the lefty talking heads.

Why is the bullying of the press by the Clintons a surprise?
They did it during Bubba’s reign. If they didn’t like what a reporter wrote, they’d call up the editor and apply pressure.

“Yes, but it was okay as long as they were attacking Republicans.”
::::::
The old textbook liberal double standard. We know it so well. Their faux world mind syndrome is amazing — the Clintons gave us that in spades.

Early voting has broken records in Texas, particularly among Democrats. Not sure what it means except people are motivated this year.

Wolfson looks like one of those gay bar bullies ...
Howard Wolfson goes to the doctor, complaining of irregularity, and is referred to a proctologist.
The procotologist (of course) conducts an exam of Wolfson's rectum and lower colon, and exclaims (while looking up into yonder bowel) "good God man, no wonder you're constipated, somebody shoved a dozen roses up there!"
Wolfson giggles excitedly and says "oh never mind the roses, what's the CARD say?!!?!?"

Well, think Hannibal Lecter has had a hand in her campaign lately. She’s acting absolutely insane. Watch her try to dig her fangs into Barack’s neck at the next debate.

SNL could revive its ratings by bringing in Dana Carvey to do a segment on “the church lady” and have an interview with a Hillary clone actress, using the “satan” verbage,etc. Would be a hoot...
To: princess leah
Great idea!
That was Dana Carvey’s best gig!
