John Sununu is a rude...

[one_voice]

arrogant piece of shit. He's a nasty bully....I wish they'd quite giving him a platform to perform on .


**he's on Andrea Mitchell right now.

[Happyhippychick]

1. His head is exploding. It's delicious.

[madaboutharry]

2. He is bitter over his own failed political career.

On edit: He is having a meltdown. Jeez.

[Lint Head]

3. Sununu is irrelevant and proves it every day.

Wah wah wah wah, blah blah blah blah. He was run out of Washington for misuse of his office. screw him.

[tjdee]

4. He's literally shouting at Andrea.

And she's like "we are trying to be fair ok????"

She's trying and he's just talking bullshit.

[PA Democrat]

24. I saw him do the same thing to CNN's Soledad O'Brien.

He was incredibly rude and very dismissive of Soledad. He kept shouting over her and suggested she put an Obama campaign sticker on her forehead.

He is a bully and is not going to impress the independent voters that Mitt needs. Furthermore he came across as very condescending to a female anchor. Does he act this way with male anchors and reporters? Because the 2 cases of really bad behavior that I have seen and heard about both involved women.

[tufnel]

5. What an ass..

Trying to spin Romney's words from the video. Tough watching - he's so desperate.

[PearliePoo2]

6. I don't understand why she booked him!

They know what a jerk he is. What's up with even giving him ANY airtime?

[nc4bo]

7. His laugh sounds like a snorting hog. nt

[Rider3]

8. From the Reagan era - what do you expect?

He can't help it. 99% of those who worked in the Reagain administration were ignorant, mean, assholes. That President and his ilk were the start of this whole mess. And, then, W. came along and really did us in.

[Lint Head]

9. He just blew it by saying if this video had not been "snuck" out this wouldn't be happening.

He admits Romney hides shit.

[Blaukraut]

10. So he blames the fallout of the video on Jimmy Carter's grandson

What a tool. That's like blaming the witness of a robbery for the fact that he went to the police and the robber got caught.

[one_voice]

15. Yeah I caught that...

asshole!

[ChairmanAgnostic]

11. to the contrary, the more often he appears, the

worse it gets for Romney.

Sununu has two modes, and they are not on and off.
It is rude and ruder. It also begins to go stale fairly quickly, especially when he is reduced to lies and misdirection. Like now.

I actually thought that Mitchell did pretty well to stand up to that ass.

[one_voice]

21. Yes she did...

she wasn't as forceful at first..but I think she got a little sick of him talking over her. I think he thought she was going to take it, glad she didn't.

[Spazito]

22. I agree, he does not help his candidate at all, imo, by his...

rude, obnoxious and contemptuous tone and behavior, it mirrors the same attitude that Romney has.

[FSogol]

12. Why is he on tv so much? Didn't he resign in disgrace from using government funds for personal use?

Did he ever pay that back? It's hard to keep track of all the crooks in the GOP.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

13. He mentioned the words "Class Warfare"

and said Obama "nurtures it every day", completely oblivious to the fact that's what the Romney message in that tape was all about.

[onehandle]

14. He'll be disappeared after the first Tuesday in November.

A lot of failed GOP boosters will be toast this year.

MSNBC better not hire Sununu.

[MrScorpio]

16. I've never seen a man who's more in need of an enema in my entire life. nt

[one_voice]

23. ....

[sweettater]

17. Of all the times

I wanted to reach through the TV and slap that arrogant mug, today was the day!!!

[librechik]

18. another painful, fact-twisting tantrum from someone who should know better

that was awful--he must get paid a lot to be such a clown in public, with his sterling reputation. Oh wait, Repubs have all dropped that to become mass stranglers. Never mind.

[madaboutharry]

19. Shit...She is laughing at him and getting pissed at him.

Even Andrea can't deal with his bullshit!

[Life Long Dem]

20. He needs to calm down

He's all excited because of the recent 47% video. And I'm loving it!

[MinM]

25. Sununu went after OTM's Brooke Gladstone a few weeks ago.

"We're Not Going to Let Our Campaign be Dictated by Fact-Checkers"
Friday, August 31, 2012

This week, a Romney pollster responded to several critical fact-checks of a campaign ad by saying "we're not going to let our campaign be dictated by fact-checkers." Brooke talks to former New Hampshire governor and former White House Chief of Staff John Sununu about the ad and the institution of fact-checking.

http://www.onthemedia.org/2012/aug/31/were-not-going-let-our-campaign-be-dictated-fact-checkers/

Former New Hampshire Governor John Sununu this week nominated Mitt Romney for President at the Republican National Convention. We couldn’t get anyone from the Romney campaign, so we called on him to give us his insight on what’s going on.

JOHN SUNUNU: With all due respect to the quote, “fact-checkers” that have called that ad wrong, they don’t know what they’re talking about. Let me explain to you why they’re wrong. That law was written specifically by a Republican Congress to make sure that a, a governor could not get waivers from the work component. President Clinton vetoed it twice over that provision that prohibited allowing anybody to grant waivers on the work component. The fact-checkers just don’t know what they’re talking about...

BROOKE GLADSTONE: This is the problem when everyone has the right to their own facts.

JOHN SUNUNU: Ma’am, you weren’t involved – you weren’t involved in writing the law. Rick Santorum was. You weren’t involved in writing the law. Speaker Gingrich was. You weren’t involved in fighting to make sure that a provision for waivers was not in the law. These people were, and they have attested to the fact, and the weasel wording that comes out of the President of the United States and NPR is not gonna change those facts. I’ve enjoyed being on the air. I’ve got to go to my next call.

BROOKE GLADSTONE: Why didn’t the ad refer to waivers, rather than no longer having to work? Why not say what it is the President actually did?

JOHN SUNUNU: If you say that the ad is perfectly right with adding waivers, then you’re acknowledging the fact that the President broke the law by granting waivers.

[OVERTALK]

BROOKE GLADSTONE: I think the ad is wrong.

JOHN SUNUNU: As, as usual, you, part of the liberal press that will cover this President’s butt across the board, you’re going to lose in November. But I’ve enjoyed talking to you. Thank you...

26. His Job Is To Be A Bully...

Bishop Willard spelled it out in last night's video in clear terms. He only cares about the 47% that is stuck on stupid that will vote for him no matter what. Or so he thinks. I'd ramp that number back to 40% but it's still 50 millions people that he needs to keep on board and "energized". Goons like Sununu are sent out there for the sound bites that will later show up on faux noise, hate radio and wingnut websites to "buck up" the "base". The rushpublicans consider Mrs. Greenspan and anyone in the "mainstream media" with disdain and this is like a booster shot for the unhinged from all the other news about their candidate imploding...
