Looks as if Nancy Pelosi has found a rooting section at ABC. As we detailed here yesterday, Charley Gibson fawned over Nancy Pelosi's baby-clutching photo-op. This morning, Cokie Roberts joined the claque. Appearing on This Week, she enthused:
"Great images, you're absolutely right. And completely natural. . . That baby knew that grandmother even though it's only a few weeks old. All those other children were completely
comfortable with her. And it was, it was just, fun. It wasn't in any way stilted and awful."

Pelosi, completely natural and comfortable? Not nearly as natural and comfortable as was Cokie -- singing the praises of a new Dem Speaker of the House.

January 7, 2007 - 12:09 ET by TENext week, in celebration of the Democrat party's one holy, religious sacrament and to show Pelosi's concern for the care of children, Pelosi will have abortionists perform partial birth abortions from the speaker's chair and then spread the blood and internal organs of the dead children among the Democrats for them to enjoy drinking and eating the remains in utter, orgasmic joy.

January 7, 2007 - 12:32 ET by Jack BauerThat baby knew that grandmother even though it's only a few weeks old.
Oh I'm sure the poor little mite also knows Pelosi's a rabid Partial Birth Abortion siupporter
(you know, where a child killer like "Dr Mengle Tiller" sticks a pair of scissors through the head of a just being born baby, then sucks its brains out)
So it was just being thankful.

Wonder if
January 7, 2007 - 13:50 ET by pagarAnyone has done any studies to determine at what age a child finds out just how lucky it was to escape the death that occurs when a child is aborted. Surely at some point, one would look around and notice that there should have been a million or so more children born the same year,
except the Democrats said it was OK to kill inconvenient children.

January 7, 2007 - 17:10 ET by bigtimerJack, you took the words right out of my mouth when it comes to Pelosi, there is no difference between her and 'Tiller the Baby Killer', she votes for this procedure, he implies it...how either of them sleep at night, let alone look themselves in the mirror every morning is beyond me....

January 7, 2007 - 12:58 ET by happyuscitizenI may be just a simple man, but the picture Cokie shilled for of the caring Grandma doesn't look so much like that to me.
It reminds me of the old zombie movies and that Speaker Plasticlosi is in full zombie mode looking to suck the brains out of that innocent child!

January 7, 2007 - 13:56 ET by balboaI don't know how someone who's been around the political game as long as Cokie has can think that this was a "natural" photo op. Yeah, you expect that her relatives will be there, but...not all that "natural" to hold your grandkid.
Perhaps Cokie just got wrapped up in the moment.

January 7, 2007 - 15:54 ET by 4arrowAnother question. Why are middleaged media women so obsessed with having their jaw lines tightened to resemble twenty somethings? Their eggs are well past their sell-by-date so it can't be that they are looking for a mate with whom to reproduce. What is it all for? Can you picture Kronkite with a facelift.
Is some network management thinktank actually telling them that the public is abhored by grandma faces?
Any opinions?
Hi 4arrow,Great question and
January 8, 2007 - 14:07 ET by Darth DutchHi 4arrow,
Great question and it's one I've wondered myself. I think the truth of it is that, no matter how much the media talks about the need for equality and oppression of women, etc., you still don't see a woman who is considered "unattractive" on TV since that would hurt ratings. So they're torn between their ideology which includes wanting to blur the lines between genders (there are no "real" difference between men & women besides physiological ones) and between making sure ratings are up. That's why women still wear make up and do their hair in a traditionally "feminine" way even though they would try to support a "regular" woman not looking like a woman because its her "right" to be an individual.

January 7, 2007 - 20:05 ET by GalvanicCokie Roberts, like comrade Andrea Mitchell, personifies the blend of Big Government and MSM elite. A long time MSM face and married to MSMer Steve Roberts, she virtually grew up in Washington DC as the daughter of two Senators from Alabama. The image of Pelosi sitting in the Speaker's chair surrounded by children must harken pleasant memories for her of that little Boggs girl running around the halls of the Senate, or sitting in Daddy's lap in his Senate chair ----- "perfectly natural."

January 7, 2007 - 20:25 ET by Red JeepI am surprised Nancy didn’t pull out a breast and mime breast feeding the baby. That is completely natural like Cokie says. What a photo op! The Mother of our country breast feeding her grandchild. Man, she cares! S/off

January 8, 2007 - 06:35 ET by Andrew H.It doesn't dawn on Cokie we have a leaderless congress now. Conusion will reign--and then the tax increases, then an imboldened enemy will plan to deliver their next attack, then the committee chairs will blame republicans.

Being A Grandma Is Fun; Try It, You'll Like It!
January 8, 2007 - 11:00 ET by emjem24Oh, my God, I'm gonna scream! Maybe she should run as the first grandma for president. Perish the thought! Yeah, let's pull out the children to convince America that Democrats give a crap about our kids and protecting them. If they trully gave a crap, then why did they brush aside the whole page scandal? Terrible for the Republicans to cover it up but we weren't involved in the least. What a crock! Hey, why you're at it, Feloozi, why don't you take care of America but letting her keep more of its money so more children's parents can make choices about their children's schooling. Since you care so much about kids, Fellozi, why don't you pass a federally mandated voucher program so that not so many of our kids keep getting liberaly indoctrinated by our public schools and are left disempowered, disenfranchised, and unable to communicate in complete sentences. I won't hold my breath, though. Like most liberals, it's do as I say, not as I do.
