ANDREA MITCHELL: Exactly. But most of them have also done things in academia, on Wall Street, elsewhere, and have checked other boxes so that you see a real talent pool here, which is pretty extraordinary.

   Yeah, everybody has experience except obama himself.  It's like watching a real life version of Trading Places with obama playing the Eddie Murphy role and George Soros as one of the old Duke Brothers.

Oh, come on - the peace corps will surely.. turn the economy around and create tax revenue flow. Just imagine how many hundreds of billions of dollars in tax revenue would be created by paying these old folks $4 an hour (drawing from tax revenue). And imagine how GDP would jump back up again.....

" this young president, African-American, with experience around
the world, with a different set of experiences, and his team, and it is
a meritocracy -- you’re seeing an extraordinary group of very large
figures coming into play here -- what are they going to do
with all the challenges that they face? We have never in my lifetime
faced economic crises such as these, and opportunities."

I can't wait to see her face the first time some group of angry Muslims burns Obama in effigy.It'll be priceless.

"but but...don't those people understand that he is trying to save them...?"

Well, I suppose when you're married to a corpse, you've got to find someone new to turn you on.  Andrea Mitchell didn't go all Nip/Tuck for nothing, right?

"Government's view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it." -Ronald Reagan

Once again the Mummbling Mummy of MSNBC has spoken, "and lo unto those that speak ill of thy savior PEBO. For it has crossed her lips that he is pleasent upon the eyes and should be treated as a prince among men."

"If you love wealth more than liberty, the tranquillity of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, depart from us in peace. We ask not your counsel nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you."

Andrea Mitchell - on Bill Richardson.. This is just plain funny:

ANDREA MITCHELL: Bill Richardson wasn’t vetted by either himself or by the vetters. And he is such an engaging personality. You know, Charlie, I’ve traveled around the world with him, and we’ve gone to North Korea, to Afghanistan, to Pakistan with him. We’ve seen him in Sudan. He is an enormously talented figure.

Being out here in CA, we just happen to remember the CA energy crisis/blackouts, which began in the spring of 2000 (just after the historic crash of the dot.com bubble) and lasted until early in 2001. The CA energy crisis was accompanied by a 50% increase in gas prices, and a painful (for the NE) rise in heating oil prices. Also associated with that bad year, was that it marked the end of the Clinton failure to achieve anything in national energy policy.

Oh, and he's been around the world, all right - doing all that stuff you despise (when there's an R. by the name). Richardson served a stint as US Ambassador to the UN. Let's see; Clinton goes to Rwanda - and promises "never again" (pretty big guilt trip there).

Richardson, according to the WaPost, in Oct. 1997:

"launched an effort to persuade Congo's leader, Laurent Kabila, to allow a U.N. probe into massacres during the seven-month war ..  unless Kabila allows the U.N. investigation into the slaughter of tens of thousands of mostly Rwandan Hutu refugees."

Didn't go so well. Before the end of the Clinton term another 3 1/2 - 5 million would die from civil war, genocide, disease, and starvation in that region. Good job, Richardson. Well, the MSM must think so; after all, they never asked you or Clinton why you never did anything to stop the slaughter.

And sometimes, you'd think Mitchell and her comrades would jump all  over Richardson for his "Cheney" impersonation act.

Colombia (from Colombia Journal):

In 1999, US Secretary of Energy Bill Richardson visited the Colombian city of Cartagena to address US economic interests in the South American nation. During his visit, Richardson announced, “The United States and its allies will invest millions of dollars in two areas of the Colombian economy, in the areas of mining and energy, and to secure these investments we are tripling military aid to Colombia.” The ensuing tripling of military aid occurred the following year under Plan Colombia, which was presented as a counter-narcotics initiative to the US Congress and the public.

Also in 1999, Colombia experienced its worst economic recession in more than half a century and, for the first time, the country turned to the International Monetary Fund (IMF) for a bailout loan. In December of that year—one month before President Bill Clinton announced Plan Colombia—the IMF agreed to lend Colombia $2.7 billion on the condition that the government implement structural reforms that included privatizing state-owned companies, deregulating the economy and opening up the country’s natural resources for exploitation by multinational companies. In essence, the IMF-demanded structural reforms became the economic component of Plan Colombia.

Kosovo? About a genocide (that never happened) right? Not according to Richardson. President Clinton's Energy Secretary Bill Richardson spelled out America’s Balkan policy a few months prior to the 1999 bombing of Yugoslavia [Kosovo]:

“This is about America's energy security.… It's also about preventing strategic inroads by those who don't share our values. We're trying to move these newly independent countries toward the west…. We would like to see them reliant on western commercial and political interests rather than going another way. We've made a substantial political investment in the Caspian, and it's very important to us that both the pipeline map and the politics come out right.”

It's the press that didn't vet Richardson, Andrea Mitchell.

These media types are getting really creepy. They have gone past the cheer leaders for Obama stage and are all sounding cultish and robotic - Obama-trons? 

The "Mainstream" Media: By liberals. For liberals.

The image of Andrea Mitchell "turned on" is really very creepy.   Like imagining everybody on The View in the nude.  A real testosterone chiller. 

if there weren't people out here who actually thought for themselves then perhaps everybody would be on board with BHO. So, you and your ilk better starting working on silencing the deep thinkers out here by enacting the Fairness Doctrine. Then you can say you fixed everything.

"this young president, African-American, with experience around the world"

I thought we weren't supposed to talk about his race.

Experience around the world?  I've been teaching overseas for 10 years - Nigeria, Bangladesh, Korea, Saudi Arabia, Lebanon  - hell, I've got more international experience than our President-Elect!

Have all journalists just given up on even attempting to appear impartial. At least, Barbara Walters continuously talks about how she can't give her opinions on “The View,” because she is a journalist, though I think we can figure them out. But, my point is at least journalists used to at least try to appear impartial, now they all go on about how much they love the next President, are working for him, and how he makes them tingle. Edward R Morrow was a liberal but I bet these so-called journalists of today have made him turn over in his grave, with their public biases.

I believe that many of the so-called "journalists" and "politicians" in our country are legally insane. A psychiatrist would have a field day with the likes of Andrea Mitchell, Keith Olbermann, Chris Matthews, Bill Maher, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, Al Franken, et.al. The lunatics have taken over the asylum. We are in deep soup when an old hag like Mitchell is allowed to spew her fantasies on a national "news" program, rather than in the confines of a padded cell. BTW, Greenspan must get an earful when she's home, and not off adoring some young stud. Sad.

NEVER,NEVER trust a "liberal"

 
Andrea is living proof that botox and tofu causes severe brain damage. She couldn't be in any worse shape mentally if she had just stuck to eating paint chips.

Of course I'm not married to an 82 yr. old Alan Greenspan, so who am I to begrudge her for what turns her on. Maybe someone should direct Andrea to the nearest adult toy store.

"You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. We must be cautious. "

" The Cake is a lie."   

"you know....the blogosphere."

For a second there I thought that might have been a Caroline Kennedy quote.

Anyway, that (right behind Sarah Palin) is what scares them the most.  Just the knowledge that there are a multitude of people posting on the internet, bashing Dear Leader and all things insane/Lib and the MSM.  Really gets under their skin.

So keep hammering these Libs on various blogs and forums...don't let them post to their hearts content without opposition. But, of course, there's no guarantee your post will stay up...I've found ABC's Political Radar notorious for out of hand deletions of right winger's posts.  The Swamp blocked one but put up the second one where I complained about free speech (I was responding to a Lib's insults of Republicans-and without any foul language).

"I just wish that we could find something in the center that would be bipartisan and would be productive and constructive."

"in the center"...what a joke that is. But, I guess millions really are that ignorant and keep watching so they can sell soap and pay off these 'journalists' salaries (the part of Capitalism they actually like).

One of the 24% who thinks George W. Bush was a great President. One of the 89% who wants to bring back the stock and pillory.
