George Stephanopoulos Already Touting Unpopularity of Paul Ryan, Reads Obama Tweet
NewsBusters ^ | 08/14/2012 | Scott Whitlock

Former Democratic operative turned TV host George Stephanopoulos on Tuesday immediately set to work on the job of parroting Democratic talking points about the new Republican presidential ticket. The cable anchor teased the program by hyping, "Mitt Romney and his new running mate under attack from the White House. President Obama says they will end Medicare as we know it." [See video below. MP3 audio here.]

Stephanopoulos also used social media to parrot liberal attacks: "President Obama put out a tweet last night to his 18 and a half million followers, saying Romney and Ryan want to end Medicare as we know it, while giving millionaires a tax cut."

The MSM will never play this 2009 clip of Obama talking about paying for Obamacare by cutting Medicare by a third.

Well, SOMEBODY needs to end “Medicare as we know it.”

Medicare AS WE KNOW IT is going broke so, no matter what happens, “Medicare as we know it” will be gone, either by being changed to a better financial footing or by simply collapsing upon itself in a few years.

What REALLY needs to be changed is “Obama fascistic socialism as we know it.”

I’m sick and tired of the lying leftist media. They need to be called out on every lie. And Steffie needs a good kick in the ovaries.

ABC should be boycotted. It’s programing is mostly left-liberal...and much of it anti-American.

George Stepawhatshisface is a former Clinton butt-boy who left his White House job to continue propaganda on mainstream tv for the left.

A boycott of all of his advertisers needs to happen.

Really surprised that Steffi is not the ABC debate moderator.

They do a good camera work at ABC hiding the strings attached to Stephanopoulos. Wonder if the DNC can also manipulate him to dance and sing when they want him to?

Everytime I see that smarmy little daft prick, I'm reminded of a kid in our high school who finally pushed things too far and got a well-deserved "swirly."

Anybody go to high school back in the early 1970's and know what a "swirly" was?

I can’t stand that slimy little Greek turd with the $hit-eating grin.

Very close. Shall I explain it in detail or does anyone else know?
