On Thursday’s CBS Early Show, co-host Julie Chen came to the defense of would-be New York Senator Caroline Kennedy, who has faced criticism for her lack of experience: "This is so unfair. I mean, look, the system is set up the way it's set up and Governor Paterson decides and that's it. Leave her alone, everyone." That comment followed a report by correspondent Meg Oliver, in which Kennedy avoided tough questions from the press: "She quickly got a taste of the pressure that comes with seeking a high-profile political office...questions mostly went unanswered."
Chen was not so quick to defend Sarah Palin from critics during the campaign.
Chen is a bimbo. Little more.
Waiting for the “Leave __________ Alone!” photo...
Julie Chen knows what she’s talking about,since she’s “doing” her boss!
When was the last time New York had a qualified senator...lol
I heard a Kennedy sycophant say the Princess is a mother, as another qualification for Her Highness to be appointed to the seat.
Contrast with Palin.
This is a taste of how they want it - an untouchable, unanswerable, and unaccountable layer of Congressmen, Senators, Judges, and likeminded royalty. And when I mention ‘they’ you can include a good number of republicans.
Seems to me that has become the single most effective campaign practice by marxist candidates these days. “Don’t criticize us. That’s just unfair.”
It worked for Zero.
The MSM is staffed with children.
LOL LOL gotta love the hypocrisy from the left. Waiting for their noses to grow
has anyone ever seen Caroline Kennedy and John Kerry in the same room?
just asking.
I stopped listening to the “morons in the morning” shows long ago.
One incompetant talking about another.......
I hate to be cruel but, looking at her picture, this whole thing reminds me of Caligula’s horse.
That was her cousin Kerry,Andrew Cuomo’s ex. She said that
women are raped and abused in this country, so we have to
make Caroline a senator. This is their logic!
Oh...well...I guess that ends all legitimate debate, doesn't it...you retard.
"How dare you question my patriotism?" (Kerry 2004)
to
"How dare you question someone's qualifications?" (Obama 2008 / Kennedy 2008)
Boy the Dems get off easy.
"Leave Caroline alone!!!"
That’s Caroline Kennedy Schlossberg
Her name is NOT Caroline Kennedy and certainly not “Mrs. Kennedy” as they are calling her.
LOL...I was going to post that pic if no-one had done so already.
So, let me get this straight....she’s telling everybody to shut up?
Someone needs to tell Mrs. Moonves, host of that disgraceful show “Big Brother,” that Gov. Paterson didn’t pull the Princess’s name out of a hat. She ASKED for the appointment. You might take a look at your own network’s treatment of Sarah Palin, who did NOT ask for the Vice Presidential nomination, but who had at least had elected experience and executive experience chops, and who was treated like crap by Katie Couric.
“This is so unfair”
The Liberal mantra.
They can’t understand why anyone could possibly be offended by the term “upstate.”
What’s offensive about “upstate”?
We always used that term for anyone above Westchester County.
Caroline Hussein Kennedy for US Senate.
All of a sudden Caroline is Britnney and Chen is sobbing under a blanket in front of a webcam?
“Chen is a bimbo. Little more.”
That is SO unfair.
Julie, your liberal hackness is showing.
Sleep your way to the top!
I honestly believe that the city of NY and most of the north east actually live in their own bubble.
Must be nice to live in a place like scarsdale westchester county and work in Manhattan . Then tell everyone else how they should live in diverse areas
lol
I’m surprised it took so long. :-)
But But, Sarah is a Republican and deserved such treatment, meanwhile Princess Caroline is a Kennedy, and a Democrat, therefore highly experienced
Morning Show hosts are ALL morons.
Hmmm...
KENNEDY: Well, as I -- first of all, this was a great visit and I've already learned a lot and I would want to come back-
... and I can see upstate from my house!
So Chen is upset that people are sniping at Caroline as a silly airhead who would be out of her depth in an important position? Me think Chen doth protest to much . . . .
There’s a video released recently by RNC showing O discussing supporting Blago for governor.
When asked by the reporter if he’s going to support Blago Obama says.......youbetcha.
Now where did we hear that before, and how many of the msm bashed Sarah for using that expression.
Oh the hypocrisy is breathtaking.
When it's uttered by a NYCer trying to curry favor among those strange and exotic foreigners in Buffalo.
Consider the "story" that this dumb bimbo did on Palin shopping at a consignment store:
Chen throughly interrogated Arvold (store owner): "So how long has Governor Palin shopped at your store?...What does she usually buy at your store? And does she also shop for her entire family there?...And, Ellen, what is the price range of your women's wear?...And how much does Governor Palin typically spend at your store?...And would you say your clothes look much different than what we've been seeing her wear on the campaign trail?"
Asking questions about Palin's shopping habits at a clothes store is RELEVANT AND IMPORTANT but questioning a Kennedy's lack of office-holding experience is not.
She’s had her eyelids done and a nose job, for starters.
Look, I’m sick of all the Kennedys and the Bushes too, but lets remember that the morons in Washington now all have experience and they have f***** us from stem to stern. Someone without Washington experience would be refreshing,...I mean it’s going to be a DemonRat anyway, who cares!
Well it seems like the MSM big 3 all have the ‘token’ Oriental. No Hispanics, yet? I thought they were to represent a TRUE cross-section of America?
