Bozell Column: Who's Really Bashing Women?

Newsbusters "If the woman is a liberal – an apparently full-blooded authentic female – then NBC and MSNBC are more likely to bend. Liberals who wanted Hillary Clinton to beat Barack Obama in 2008 actually campaigned against Chris Matthews as in need of a Sexism Watch for suggesting she was “witchy” and had a voice like “fingernails on a blackboard.” David Shuster got suspended for suggesting Hillary was “pimping out” her daughter Chelsea on the campaign trail.    

""But women like Sarah Palin don’t get a fraction of that politeness, even from other women. Former ABC reporter Jami Floyd came on MSNBC in November 2010 and said, “The governor says she’s an extraordinary asset to her party. I say she’s an extraordinary ass, frankly.” "
Michelle Obama Will Appear On Letterman Next Week? REALLY? 

"Gee…Will there be any SLUT JOKES?
Will there be any jokes about her daughters getting knocked up by baseball players?
Remember, Obama made a personal call to Sandra Fluke because he was thinking of his daughters."


David Axelrod Cancels Appearance on Bill Maher's Show "Makes you wonder if pressure from Fox News's Greta Van Susteren last week helped the Administration's decision.
"Whatever it was, the next step is for Obama to instruct his Super PAC to return Maher's $1 million donation, and for all Democrats currently holding office to refuse Real Time invitations. "Maybe then Maher will get the message that not having sponsors doesn't entitle him to say these disgusting things about women on television."

SLUT-GATE HYPOCRISY: EXPLOSIVE AUDIO OF NBC'S AL SHARPTON TRASHING 'HOMOS,' 'CHINAMEN,' AND 'CRACKERS'

Breitbart "If offensive slurs are a problem for the left, why does Al Sharpton have a primetime slot on MSNBC?
"The left has started a war against Rush Limbaugh -- a war it cannot win. Limbaugh said something for which he later apologized, and rather than accept that apology, the left and its media allies decided to exploit the situation, turning it into a crusade to take an opposing voice off the air."

"Using MSNBC's own standards, should the man who once said the following be allowed to hold a primetime MSNBC slot?
David Dinkins, you wanna be the only nigger on television, only nigger in the newspaper, only nigger that can talk. Don't cover them, don't talk to them, 'cause you got the only nigger problem. 'Cause you know if a black man stood up next to you, they would see you for the whore that you really are.
"That's MSNBC's Al Sharpton--many years ago, but just as shocking today. I can already hear the excuse -- that it's okay for him to use the N-word because he's black."
....True, Sharpton said these things long before he was on MSNBC. But his history was well known, and the lack of outrage from the left when he was elevated to primetime highlights the hypocrisy of their anti-Rush censorship crusade. MSNBC President Phil Griffin knew that Sharpton said this sort of stuff regularly--that, in fact, such bigotry and radical rhetoric was an integral part of the Sharpton persona. He hired him nonetheless. One has to wonder if Brian Williams, Matt Lauer, and Tom Brokaw are proud.
"Over to you, MSNBC!"
Shocking audio tapes of MSNBC star Sharpton surface. "One could go on and on here. This is before you even get to MSNBC's Sharpton calling the prosecutor in the Tawana Brawley case, who is Jewish, "Mr. Hitler." This is before you get to the New York Post reporting Sharpton saying "I have no problem with Khalid Muhammad." Khalid Muhammad, of course, was the one-time number two to Louis Farrakhan, well on record as saying of Jews that they were "hooked-nose, bagel-eating, lox-eating, so-called Jews" with "hairy hands" that are "pimping the world." "

A dooming, foreboding piece in the Wall Street Journal on California -- and what the Once Golden's State's liberal-progressive slide into hell means for the rest of the country:

Left Coast Rebel 

"Long a harbinger of national trends and an incubator of innovation, cash-strapped California eagerly awaits a temporary revenue surge from Facebook IPO stock options and capital gains. Meanwhile, Stockton may soon become the state's largest city to go bust. Call it the agony and ecstasy of contemporary California. California's rising standards of living and outstanding public schools and universities once attracted millions seeking upward economic mobility. But then something went radically wrong as California legislatures and governors built a welfare state on high tax rates, liberal entitlement benefits, and excessive regulation.."
 

Israel to be Barackstabbed Again?

Jessica Rubin "For many commentators it is clear that Obama's real sympathies lie with Palestine and not Israel. His entire educational background from Wright to Bell to Rashid Khalidi and his dealings with CAIR and other Islamist fronts reinforce this view.
"Now Obama is back in the campaign mode again and making the same promises he made in 2008. If he wins in 2012 there will be no need for the US Jewish vote. Then the Obama's ship of state, unhampered by the need for the Jewish vote, will fly its true colors. 
"As Stanley Kurtz writes; "This is why supporters of Israel should fear Obama's reelection. In 2013, with his political vulnerability a thing of the past, Obama's pro-Palestinian sympathies would be released from hibernation, leaving Israel without support from its indispensable American defender." "

Caroline Glick : An Obama Foreign Policy  Jun 23rd, 2011   "What Gates is effectively saying is not that economic forecasts are gloomy. US defense spending comprises less than five percent of the federal budget. If US President Barack Obama wanted to maintain that level of spending, the Republican-controlled Congress would probably pass his defense budget. What Gates is saying is that he doesn’t trust his commander in chief to allocate the resources to preserve America’s superpower status. He is saying that he believes that Obama is willing to surrender the US’s status as a superpower." 


Israeli Airstrikes Kill 6 in Gaza; Militants Fire 30 Rockets at Israel 

DEBKAfile: Israel develops its own bunker buster  "The MPR-500 bridges an operational gap between the 250-pound US GBU-39 small-diameter bomb, 1,000 of which were approved for sale to Israel and the 5,000-pound GBU-28 American super-bunker buster. DEBKAfile notes: The IMI’s presentation of the MPR-500 took place at the height of Israel’s argument with the Obama administration over the need for a near-term strike on Iran’s nuclear sites – especially those Tehran is busy transferring to fortified underground bunkers."

Obama's mentors and circle of friends who shaped his outlook

Derrick Bell’s Love for New Black Panther Party Founder, and White House Counsel

"Harvard Law Professor Derrick Bell praised the anti-Semitic founder of the New Black Panther Party. Another strong supporter of Bell was eventually Obama White House counsel Cassandra Butts, the White House lawyer when the New Black Panther voter intimidation case was dismissed.
"Powerline has the story of Derrick Bell praising the venomous anti-Semite Khalid Muhammad, former head of the New Black Panther Party. The dots that Powerline connected are the dots between Derrick Bell, Khalid Muhammad and the New Black Panther Party. But White House counsel Cassandra Butts was also involved in the now-famous Harvard Law School rally for Bell. Butts helped organize the rally supporting Bell and escorted him to be introduced.
"Butts, nearly 20 years later, may have played a role in the dismissal of the New Black Panther voter intimidation case according to multiple reports."
Eric Holder Supports the Al-Qaeda Vote Well...it can kinda work out that way if you think about it.


Congressman Danny Davis  "At that time—just eight years ago—Congressman Danny Davis was continuing his efforts to help move then-State Senator Obama up the Chicago political food chain. And not that long ago—in fact, just two weeks—that Congressman Davis was honored by People’s World, a news website, at the Communist Party U.S.A.’s headquarters in Chicago for a lifetime of “inspiring leadership.” "
