On his Tuesday show, returning from a brief hiatus, conservative talker Mark Levin, author of “Ameritopia: The Unmaking of America,” gave an emotional, and a at times angry, defense of The Daily Caller’s Neil Munro. Munro was criticized and maligned by a number of public figures after his ill-timed question of President Barack Obama during a Rose Garden speech on Friday.
Levin started out with criticism of the Republican response, which he called “pathetic-to-tepid” and chalked up to fear.
“They so fear standing up to a demagogue, they so fear the media, they so fear their own inability to discuss and debate these matters beyond what is superficial,” Levin said. “They act as if they are without any recourse.”
Levin went through a list of Republicans that he had expected more from, but then went straight to praising Munro.
“Then there was one person who did speak up — one person who spoke up when “el presidente” gathered the media around him outside the Oval Office on the White House grounds,” Levin said. “He gathered up the media to do what he always does — to tell them what to write, what to report, what to regurgitate to you. One little courageous soul — one little voice out of the pack — decided we have a president of the United States who is brazenly telling us that he’s going to violate the Constitution of the United States, a president of the United States who does not take questions after gathering around the reporters as he issues his pronouncements. And this reporter, this one voice decided to ask a question.”
But later after a commercial break, Levin erupted in disdain for the president and the backlash against Munro for his question.
“We have a president of the United States who’s literally destroying the future for your children,” Levin said. “He’s bankrupting the country. He’s balkanizing the country. He’s driving us from a constitutional republic — or what’s left of it — to something else. And this one reporter is the only one that has the guts to ask a question and he’s made out to be some kind of a devil. He’s the only one — the only one who wanted to ask a question. The hell is happening to this country?”
I wonder if he mentions Bill O’Reilly (Ted Baxter) and his pompous comments?
Well after a few days away, Mark Levin sounded very well rested. Even now, Senator Harry Reid shut down a reporter’s question:

Please see post number 4 Mark. Thank-you. :)
I heard Rush talk of the same thing yesterday....
whats good for the goose being good for the gander does not work with the Marxist paradigm of the zer0bama Regime.
they are despicable....as are their RINO enablers...
Awesome clip.
There used to be a saying.
Looking for a needle in a haystack.
Now there is a new one.
Looking for balls on a Republican politician.
When both stores suck and don’t have what shoppers want, then it’s time to open a third store.
Well the question was directed at a clown, for sure.
Mark Levin is so amazing, I pray for his health frequently.
I firmly believe the media ignore his statements, reviews
of his books, etc, because no one else can articulate con-
servative views so eloquently. They are afraid that the more
people that hear him, might perhaps come to their senses.
Hes is a national treasure and funny as hell.
Flame away if you must,haters!
