"Excuse me, do your listeners understand this is the same thing we're putting up with with the Senate? We offer a compromise, they won't even talk to us about it. You won't even talk to us about it. Whose bidding are you doing?"

Woo-Hoo!!!

[servo1969]

Why, yes. That is, in fact, her exact job description. CNN ‘Fit Thrower’ Extraordinaire.

[AU72]

That’s ASHLEIGH (TALI)BANFIELD

[pgyanke]

BANFIELD: You are not the only two on the hot seat, but you are both really great to come on with me today. Please fix this mess for the rest of us. We really – we like to pay you your big salaries, but we'd like for you to do more and do more negotiating and figure it out. You are like intransigent kids.

I try not to use harsh words on here but... bitch.

[ClearCase_guy]

"I invited two Republicans on and not a Democrat"

I guess she felt that she could represent the Dems all by herself ...

[Servant of the Cross]

Hey Ashley! Your journalistic better disagrees ... Woodward: If Shutdown or Debt Ceiling Causes Economic Crisis, It’s on the ‘President’s Head’

[FlipWilson]

This is precisely what Republicans need to do more of.

[Sans-Culotte]

Nice smack-down.

[Obadiah]

Call me when Banfield or Andrea Mitchell ever — ever — do likewise to any Democrat. These people are partisan hacks and Republicans would do well to push back hard about their partisanship in such interviews.

David Gregory did the same thing to Ted Cruz yesterday but Cruz didn't take the bait as it was the wrong moment.

I am sick and tired of the abject partisanship by the corrupt MSM who are auditioning to get a government job in the Obama administration.

The ditzy Ashleigh said this? Unreal!

[Albion Wilde]

Banfield is a screeching ignoramus.

[Regulator]

As noted on another thread...they are making no pretense of being objective now

This is a full court press to brow beat the Republicans into surrender.

Home stretch for the Commies and their propagandists, the Senate Republicans are hiding behind their desks.

[Billthedrill]

Rhetorical question, but it was long overdue. “You won’t compromise” is simply “you won’t surrender to the Democrats”. Now, I’m all for compromise in the matter - how about we fund the government through a Continuing Resolution and the Dems give up on only one single issue, 0bamacare. Oh, that’s been offered twice, has it? Pity.

[holden]

I think Insult-Thrower Banfield damaged the Senate's, the Administration's and Democrats' cause with this exchange, even among CNN's skewed viewers.

Rohrabacher and Blackburn seem to have been very respectful and measured in their responses.

[Mr. K]

Why do republicans continue to talk to Obama’s propagandists?

[lodi90]

“The GOP is acting like kids” is straight out of the Dem playbook. Literally. Jennifer Granholm tweeted something similar today. The presstitutes got their Dem marching orders and are goosestepping along to them.

[Rummyfan]

Sounds like the MSM is losing it.

[Robert357]

Bulls*^t and those that don't learn history go hand in hand, especially when we have a great dumb media that is promoting one political party over another.

“....From a practical perspective, shutdowns usually aren't that big a deal. They happened every year when Jimmy Carter was president, averaging 11 days each. During President Reagan's two terms, there were six shutdowns, typically just one or two days apiece. Deals got cut. Everybody moved on.

In 1995-96, however, shutdowns morphed into political warfare, to the dismay of Republicans who thought they could use them to drag Clinton to the negotiating table on a balanced budget plan...”

[Jack Hydrazine]

This tirade of hers is no different than when Commies put an enemy of the state up on a stage and the crowd jeers, attacks, accuses, and blames the individual for their problems.

I know there is a name for it but I can’t think of it right off the top of my head.
