MSNBC HOST: CRITICIZING OBAMA’S GOLFING IS A SCHEME TO LINK HIM WITH TIGER WOODS
Human Events ^ | 8/29/12 | John Hayward

Posted on 08/29/2012 3:12:22 PM PDT by KansasGirl

Beyond parody, and virtually beyond commentary, the following exchange occurred between MSNBC outpatients Martin Bashir and Lawrence O’Donnell.

Video and transcript courtesy of the Washington Free Beacon:

MARTIN BASHIR: We have seen an early draft of Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell’s forthcoming oration. Can I quote something from you? “For four years, Barack Obama has been running from the nation’s problems, he hasn’t been working to earn re-election. He has been working to earn a spot on the PGA Tour.” How about that?

LAWRENCE O’DONNELL: Well, we know exactly what he’s trying to do there. He is trying to align to Tiger Woods and surely, the — lifestyle of Tiger Woods with Barack Obama. Obviously, nothing could be further from the truth. They find every way they possibly can to –

BASHIR: Lawrence — don’t you think — don’t you think that what he’s really trying to do is to suggest that the president is not paying attention to the central issues that come with the responsibility he has? Is he really – Mitch McConnell really making a connection with Tiger Woods who, of course, has become infamous for chasing various cocktail waitresses around Las Vegas and so on?

What???

This a parody?

Bush was blasted non stop for spending too much time at his ranch. Obama golfs away a week or two of his presidency and press says it’s no big deal.

I am convinced NBC is trying the early Howard Stern school of journalism. Say and do outragreous things, any attention and publicity is good. No pub is bad. Some of this is clownish but some is ridiculous. I heard Ann Coulter say today she watches MSNBC more than FOX purely to see the hysteria.

Certifiable nutcases

They get loonier by that day, even when one doesn’t think that’s possible.

Watching MSNBC for NEWS is akin to watching Sesame Street for financial advice.

Republicans need to be more specific: He’s played Golf over 100 rounds since he’s been in office in 4 years. While the nation nosedives hes out of touch for 5 hours each of those days. He’s a loafer. Say it. He’s lazy.

And if Obama liked to play tennis and the reference was to Wimbledon, would this be a subtle reference to Venus Williams. These white leftists have race on the brain because it is inconceivable to them that a non white person could have an individual identity and exist as anything other than a member of a non white demographic.

One minor difference - everyone in the Milky Way knows what Tiger shot. Hussein? Not so much.

MSNBC is the result of political/media inbreeding... there is an insanity brewing there... if it were nationwide, it would be like the movie Apocalypse Now, only worse.
