SC Republicans Boo Newt Gingrich Over Romney Attacks

ABC News  "The booing came when Gingrich mentioned Romney’s name. I am told Gingrich was gently reprimanded by Huckabee who reminded him that the ground rules for the forum stipulated that the candidate were not allowed to attack each other.

"Every candidate except for Ron Paul took part in the forum, each of them appearing separately."

David Axelrod Tries to Re-Wright History; Jeremiah Wright spewed for 1,000 weeks, not "ninety seconds," and Obama knew.

PJ Media  "President Barack Obama’s chief political strategist, David Axelrod, wants America to take the two-decade relationship between Obama, the Reverend Jeremiah Wright, and the Trinity United Church of Christ ... on Chicago’s south side off the electoral issues table in the 2012 presidential election campaign.

"Axelrod said as much in a speech delivered on January 10 as part of the Distinguished Speaker Series of Southern California. There is apparently no evidence that he expressed a similar desire relative to Mitt Romney’s Mormonism, Newt Gingrich’s and Rick Santorum’s Catholicism, or Rick Perry’s evangelical Christianity. What a surprise."

"Getting to the details is a column for another time, but the fact is that despite his departure from TUCC, Barack Obama took much of Jeremiah Wright’s mindset into the Oval Office, where it has contributed in both overt and subtle ways to the horrible havoc his administration has wrought.
"Sorry David Axelrod. There is no way you should get your way on this one — and hopefully you won’t."

Must watch: “Daily Show” destroys liberal columnist over “civility” hypocrisy

Hot Air   "An instant classic, possibly even superior to their interview with that imbecile in San Francisco who wants to ban Happy Meals. Let me tweak the headline, though, since it’s not quite accurate. Better version: “Liberal columnist destroys herself as ‘Daily Show’ cameras roll.” It’s Froma Harrop, whom you’ll remember from her column in August comparing tea partiers — unfavorably — to terrorists who want to blow up the power grid. How they managed to pull off this goof without her wising up, I simply can’t imagine. She must have wised up but, for reasons known only to her, decided to play along with the humiliation. (Being a “good sport,” maybe?) Either that or what we’re seeing here is actually a tour de force of editing that turned what was a routine interview into a surreal expose of oblivious hypocrisy. No one be this clueless for real. Can they?"



Froma says she was in on it.  But why would she help this guy make such a point?


Ace of Spades has this.


Wikipedia mentions this here:   "Harrop is the President of the National Conference of Editorial Writers.[9] One project of the NCEW is the Civility Project, aimed at restoring civility to America's public discourse.[10] Her position was criticized by the Wall Street Journal, which noted the contrast between this role and her comparison of the Tea Party to terrorist groups such as al-Qaida.[11] In her response to the criticism, Harrop stated, "I see incivility as not letting other people speak their piece." [12] She subsequently deleted all the comments from the post and shut down the commenting feature of her blog.[13]
Her blog subsequently addressed the decision to delete the posted comments, saying that she was unwilling to spend time monitoring the large number of comments, while noting that a website is private property and that commenters could post their opinions elsewhere.Other bloggers, she said, have shut down their forums for similar reasons.[14]"

But whether she was in on it or not, a true picture of leftist civility was shown to us in all its glory.



Obama Jets Off To His $4 Million Christmas Vacation, Contrast That With Reagan & G.W. Bush Staying In DC

MaroonedinMarin  "Now that the petulant child got his way (thanks to the spineless GOP leadership in Congress) on the payroll tax holiday, ...Obama has jetted off to Hawaii for his $4 million Christmas vacation, which you and I are paying for.
"But there is an interesting tidbit to how two President's(sp) whom liberals detest spent their Christmas."
....

Twenty-eight days before they will make it their permanent address, President and Mrs. Reagan moved into their $2.5-million Bel-Air home Friday.

They are spending their first Christmas out of the White House since they moved into it on Jan. 20, 1981.

Similarly, George W. Bush spent Christmas Day in DC, and then went to his Crawford, TX ranch afterwards. Both Reagan and Bush did this so that Secret Service agents could spend Christmas with their families.
