ABC News: Lead story "bitter" quote. Over and over and over and over.

[AlinPA]

They won't quit.

[redqueen]

1. This latest to-do about nothing has given the M$M "hope".

They'll flog it for all it's worth... a la Wright.

They are desperate.

[DJ13]

2. They are desperate..........

.........for another pro corporate Clinton in the WH.

[redqueen]

9. Oh yeah!

Laissez les bon temps roulez!

[charlie]

19. Fucking Clintons

Bill, a small-state southern governor with a good ol' boy nickname, chairman of the determinedly "centrist" DLC, still wound up tarred as a furtive Maoist right out of the gate. Hillary made her Tammy Wynette baking cookies crack and got shellacked 7 ways from Sunday.

Those two know about the poisonous rightwing culture that stymied them at every turn. And here they are, in true DLC Stockholm Syndrome 5th Columnist style, wallowing in it and ensuring it will never end. The cowards have joined the bullies.

[Auntie Bush]

24. Yup! It's all Clinton's fault!

She hog tied him...pried his mouth open and made him say it...Yeah!
It's all Clinton's fault! And of course the media didn't pick it up on their own...Hillary whispered in their ear and they never would have noticed Obama's comment if it wasn't for her evil tongue.. Crucify the bitch! It will be her fault if Obama loses the election. Not. Just like bush*...Obama doesn't have to accept any responsibility and the buck doesn't stop with him. Where have I gone wrong in my thinking?

[AlinPA]

11. They just showed a Clinton ad with her lines about "faith" etc. running in PA.

She is going whole hog on this now. Desperate. Purely negative now.

[PM7nj]

3. MSM doing everything they can to keep this fight going on.

[DearAbby]

4. trying to convince

the pissants, we are not angry and bitter....whhy would Obama be saying this obvious lie? Might throw a wrench in the status quo. Revolution will not be televised.

[caledesi]

5. Not this time! - no distractions - just REAL issues! NT

[RememberWellstone]

6. psssst.

Apparently it is this time.

[GarbagemanLB]

8. I'm sure you said the same thing about Wrightgate.

[RememberWellstone]

12. His gaffs just keep on coming.

How many more until November?

[GarbagemanLB]

14. I guess we'll find out, because Hillary has no chance at the nomination.

[RememberWellstone]

17. And it's not about the word bitter

It's about the identification of what happens when you get bitter. Activism, yes. Have heavy hearts and sign petitions, yes.

Cling to bibles and guns, no. You don't "cling" to objects when you are "feeling" bitter or any other way. He is out of touch imo with how to connect to people that are not like you.

[JackORoses]

20. I'm just happy you accept the fact that Obama will be our man in November

that's a big step for a rabid Hillarite.

[RememberWellstone]

22. I would'nt go that far.

And if you don't get us hardcore Hill supporters you will NOT win the GE. Trust me on that one.

[JackORoses]

26. Are you voting McCain?

Are you voting for a War with Iran,
an Economic Depression,
and a Right-Wing Dominated Supreme Court?

If the answer is no, then you will be voting Obama in November. So quit pretending.

[RememberWellstone]

27. hell no.

But this is'nt just a 2 party vote in November...piss off enough people they jump third party, it has happened in every election that past couple of cycles.

[JackORoses]

29. a 3rd Party vote is a McCain vote and you know it.

did you support Nader in 2000?

[RememberWellstone]

33. No, I went Gore

And he won. There was not all of this hub bub going on behind the scenes. I have never felt so discouraged about an election than this one. There is so much at stake and the only "hope" is an unknown commodity. Who seems to be kicking his own ass.

[juno jones]

30. That"s why the scorched earth policy worries me about Hillary.

Her supporters hold the supreme court and women's rights over us as a form of blackmail to assure our votes in the fall no matter what. But Hillary and her supporters seem to be making it abundantly clear that if she doen't get the nom this time, her supporters, especially that traitorous 28% or so, will be more than happy to allow McCain in so Hill has a shot at 2012.

Whatta strategy. What hypocrisy.

[npincus]

7. Where are the snipers when you need them most?

[keep_it_real]

10. Hillary now has a bitter TV ad

[Arrowhead2k1]

13. Good, let them cheapen this whole thing now.

In a week, Obama will still be strong and people will already be sick and tired about hearing this crap. Just like they're sick and tired of hearing about Wright. In the grand scheme of things, this is just another non-issue.

[meow mix]

15. nothing but Bitter Loops everywhere

more and more loops

[PVnRT]

16. Must be part of that media conspiracy to destroy Hillary

[beachmom]

18. It was a weekend story and now it is Monday. We'll just have to wait and see

how this plays out.

[Yael]

21. Al -- any coverage about Mr. Rooney's endorsement?

[AlinPA]

25. Yes, nice coverage on local TV. "Biggest endorsement" Rooney is a republican.

[Yael]

28. Sweet!!

[AlinPA]

32. Story on Rooney you probably saw.

[Marblehead]

31. bitter beer face

[bklyncowgirl]

34. Deam scream part deux

[RBInMaine]

36. ABC news is a pile of corporate propaganda crap !

[stillcool]

37. They should alternate it ...

with Reverend Wright. More bang for the buck!

[PM7nj]

39. Wolf Blitzer is way ahead of you!

He did just that on CNN this afternoon.

[stillcool]

41. Go Wolf!

His mentor will be so proud!

Wolf Blitzer’s Secret

It’s scary to hear someone carry-on like Pat. But it’s sort of strange to realize that Pat and Wolf Blitzer go way back together. Yep! Wolf used to work for Pat Robertson's CBN way back when Pat was setting up his news bureau and Wolf was the 700 Club’s reporter from the Middle East. He was a lot younger in those days, but in those beginning days Pat exposed Wolf Blitzer to a viewing audience that topped the Nielsen ratings at 28.7 million monthly viewers! That’s a great way to launch one’s career. But Wolf Blitzer likes to keep that part of his career kind of quiet. He doesn’t list the 700 Club’s news bureau in his biography. He doesn’t tell CNN’s audience that Pat was like an angel to him when he was just an independent reporter starting out. But those of us who watched Pat’s show could never forget Wolf Blitzer’s reports. He was presented to us as such an expert—we were just so proud of him! And look how high he’s gone. You’d think he’d give Pat a little credit. No doubt he says “Thanks” by inviting him on CNN!


After all, Pat started a J-School (Journalism School) and Bob Slosser, who had worked for the New York Times became the President of CBN University and Bob Slosser shared Pat’s vision of a new America. Slosser was at the graduation of the first graduate from the Institute of Journalism, it was a young lady named Eliza Wright. And the Governor of Missouri, a fellow named John Ashcroft gave the graduation speech on May 20, 1985! (My how these folks go way back together—and it shows what loyalty can do!) Bob Slosser told the 700 Club audience that day:

“We’re going to change the way the country thinks, we’ve bought into this secularism thing and that’s taken us right down the wrong path. I believe that this institution and those like this…will change the way this country thinks!”

I guess Wolf Blitzer is doing his best to help Americans change the way we think—even about assassination! Shame on you Wolf! I can see why you would be reluctant to give credit to Pat for helping to launch your career. And it does explain why you don’t mention it, but really—don’t you think murdering people is immoral—or is that part of how you always wanted to change America too?

[Bonaparte]

38. Too much coverage for a non-issue

It is the sad state of the media these days.

[bigwillq]

40. Get used to it

Imagine what will happen when Obama's the nominee! OMG!
I don't really see the outrage...it's just the media overkilling a kind of non-issue (yet again). But because it's Saint Obama, some people here on DU think it's the biggest hit job of all time. It's not. Just the media doing what they do best. Turn off the tv.
