Matthews denounces snide remark on Hardbull by Nora O'Donnell!
MSNBC's Hardball | September 23, 2004 | AKSurprise

Posted on 09/23/2004 4:26:55 PM PDT by AKSurprise

Nora O'Donnell reffering to the joint press conference by President Bush and Prime Minister Allawi this afternoon said that Allawi's speech sounded as though it had been written by Bush's speech writers.

After finishing his interview with Dan Burton and some nameless lib Congresswoman, said: When Nora O'Donnell said that Allawi's speech was written by the Bush campaign it was meant to show how close the two were in their sentiments and not bias.

Sure it wasn't we all know what side of the political spectrum O'Donnell falls on. Rathergate has got all the libs running scared, and I can't tell you how satisfied that makes me... ;)

Nora is probably a lefty but she is a hottie.

She is definitely not a hairy legged Birkenstock wearing hag.

Oh boy, more simulated umbrage from the newly victorian dems. I love how they have become the language police. No one appears to be able to be critical of Kerry's past without shrieks of mccarthyism and bad etiquette. This seems to be the strategy du jour for keeping wraps on Kerry's past at the Vietham/Paris meetings, Sandanista meetings and poor senate voting record. I expect more priggish shock from the left in the weeks to come.

No doubt Allawi hired some PR types to make the speech sound American, he'd do the same in Britain, etc.

Bush's speechwriters sound American.

Kerry's don't.

Therefore Bush and Allawi are collaborating.

That's Kerry logique

Just as the Dark Side of the Force of Star Wars lore turns the evil Jedi into a corrupt, ugly, and deformed creature, same goes for the Left Side of the Political Spectrum. Just have a gander at the lefty sideshow freak Helen Thomas.

Actually, Matthews didn't denounce it. He was shoving it in Burton's face, since Burton said it was a biased comment.

It was, of course, but O'Donnell comes back and tries to put a nice face on it.

I'm not kidding! A year or so ago I found a picture of the young Helen Thomas, and she was pretty good looking....and resembled Maureen Dowd's publicity photo.

Remember, in old age we have the face we have earned.

When Mathews said there was no bias intended from O'Donnell, Burton should have replied "All I'm saying is her report sounded like it was written by the Kerry Campaign".

She's a snob and a b***h. When I did construction work at the Pentagon, I would walk through the press corridor to go eat. I made eye contact with her and spoke to her. She said nothing. I am good looking man and I was shocked how rude she was. She looked like she was miserable working there.

Dim talking point.

Rep Meeks was on FNC earlier and said it appeared to him that Bush's speech writers provided Alawi's speech.

It was much more evident on her frequent appearances on C-SPAN where she didn't have to appear impartial.

Whenever she's on Imus she watches her mouth because Imus takes the NBC reporters to task for bias. Too bad he doesn't take his guests to task, he did an ok job with Kerry but he really could have ripped into him.

Burton was right. Norah absolutely tried to imply that he was reading from a script written by a Bush speechwriter.

Well, you have made me waste a good amount of time in Google, and I can't find it. All I can tell you is that Helen had bobbed hair, red lipstick, and didn't look too bad.

I will keep looking for it over the next few days and post it if I find it.

Looks that way...however the link to the duplicate thread on this thread says it's been pulled, saying it's eroneous information. I only read the thread below before it's sister thread was pulled. There appears to be a correction on the NRO site.
