Bill O'Reilly Slams MSNBC's Sneaky Editing of Romney Wawa Clip  "An Attorney General of the United States is about to be held in contempt of Congress and NBC is just finding this out now?  It is ironic when the most vilified news network in the country by the political left, also happens to be the only ones doing their job concerning reporting the state of governmental affairs.  However, I guess NBC is so good, they can’t be possibly biased."

Is President Obama A Pathological Liar?

IBD Editorials  "The Obama Record: The most frightening aspect of this president may not be his radical ideology but his rank dishonesty in selling that ideology. Now he's been caught lying about family racism."
....
"This is only the latest example of a growing body of fabrications, embellishments and outright lies told by this president, who has a real and possibly pathological problem with the truth."
"Stacked up, his whoppers would make even Bill Clinton blush. Here's a sampling:"....

The American Interest:  Obama Bets Ranch on Weak Syrian Hand; Putin Calls

"The Obama administration dialed up its rhetoric on Syria in recent months, but it hasn’t matched U.S. words with action. Russia has noticed the chasm between U.S. words and will and has seen an opportunity:"

Obama-Putin Meeting Brings Chill to Mexico  "The G-20 meeting was a missed opportunity to recognize that the “reset” policy has indeed reset U.S.-Russia relations—back to the Cold War—and is in dire need of reassessment. For starters, Obama should have told Putin that Russian cooperation on Iran and Syria are the litmus test of the U.S.-Russian relations.

"Unfortunately, however, the president could not do even that."

House panel votes 23-17 to place Holder in contempt of Congress

The Hill  "The House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, led by Republican Chairman Darrell Issa (Calif.), approved a resolution along party lines to place Holder in contempt after battling him for months over access to internal agency documents about the gun-tracking operation known as "Fast and Furious."

"The vote came after Obama escalated the conflict by sending a letter to the committee claiming executive privilege over the documents the panel had sought.

"All 23 Republicans on the committee voted for the contempt resolution, while all 17 Democrats voted against it. Every member of the panel was present for the vote."

BBC  "Historically, Congress and the White House have negotiated agreements to avoid a court battle that would limit either Congress' subpoena power or executive privilege itself.

"In a separate development on Tuesday, the family of an Immigartion and Customs Enforcement agent killed in Mexico has filed a $25m wrongful death lawsuit against several US officials, including Mr Holder.

"Jaime Zapata's family say the weapons that killed him were brought into Mexico because of US investigations into gun trafficking."

The Potemkin President Disintegrates

Potemkin: "a pretentiously showy or imposing façade intended to mask or divert attention from an embarrassing or shabby fact or condition. "Po·tem·kin village  Origin of POTEMKIN VILLAGE: Grigori Potëmkin, who supposedly built impressive fake villages along a route Catherine the Great was to travel. First Known Use: 1937

The Potemkin President Disintegrates
...."The political unifier who claimed, “There is not a liberal America and a conservative America — there is the United States of America,” has been exposed as one of the most divisive and partisan presidents of modern times. The post-racial candidate who supposedly transcended our racial divisions has intensified them, whether by crudely racializing incidents like the Trayvon Martin shooting, or by allowing the Justice Department to facilitate race-industry attacks on state voter-identification laws, or by calling his own grandmother “a typical white person” for fearing black criminals."....

"Indeed, any mention of Wright even today calls forth shrill charges of “race-baiting” and “racial politics” from the Democrats and MSNBC. The same media that in 2006 hyperventilated over Republican Senate candidate George Allen saying something that sort of sounded like what maybe was an obscure ethnic slur apparently didn’t see a story in the fact that Obama’s spiritual mentor hates white people and had glorified the terrorist attacks of 9/11 as “chickens coming home to roost.” "  Emphasis added.


Canada Free Press: Barack Obama, the Illusion   " In other words, Obama’s spun fairytales on his Kenyan family were as bogus as the faux Greek columns from which he first strode onto the world stage at the 2008 Democratic National Convention.

"Designed down to the last politically correct detail, for making it well past his best-before date, he just had to be half black, half white, metrosexual, the Underdog of Underdogs; an illusion that could never be nailed down and exposed."

Issa vs. Holder: It's Go Time!

Via Drudge; Issa pushes ahead with Holder contempt vote despite Obama intervention

"Rep. Darrell Issa pressed ahead with a committee vote Wednesday to hold Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt of Congress, despite an 11th-hour move by President Obama to exert executive privilege over the Fast and Furious documents at the heart of the dispute. 

"The announcement instantly touched off a caustic debate on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, as Democrats accused Issa of prosecuting a "political witch hunt" and Republicans stepped up their criticism of Holder's "stonewalling" over the Fast and Furious probe. Even for Washington, the tone at the hearing was decidedly bitter and accusatory."


FLASHBACK: Obama Blasts Bush For "Hiding Behind Executive Privilege"

"You know, there's been a tendency on the part of this administration to -- to try to hide behind executive privilege every time there's something a little shaky that's taking place. And I think, you know, the administration would be best served by coming clean on this. There doesn't seem to be any national security issues involved with the U.S. attorney question. There doesn't seem to be any justification for not offering up some clear, plausible rationale for why these -- these U.S. attorneys were targeted when, by all assessments, they were doing an outstanding job. I think the American people deserve to know what was going on there.”

 M Catharine Evans; Holder Met with Issa, Didn't Bring the Goods  "Issa has a textbook contempt case against Holder. The attorney general is required by law to comply with a congressional subpoena so what is Holder going to the mat for?

"The mainstream media is complicit as well. Their deafening silence coupled with Holder's arrogance must be inversely proportional to their level of guilt."

CNN; Obama asserts executive privilege over 'Fast and Furious' document  "President Barack Obama has asserted executive privilege over document sought by a House committee investigating the botched Fast and Furious gun-running sting, said a letter to the panel Wednesday from Deputy Attorney Gen. James Cole.
"The move means the Department of Justice can withhold the documents from the panel."

What would your rebuttal be to this Muslim's charges?

American Thinker  "(culled from an anonymous blogger from the UK)"

Your infidel lifestyle has proven to be a total and absolute failure. Your degenerate Western way of life is collapsing all around you. You are unable to solve your own problems. Look at what your decadent culture and sick societies have produced: sexual immorality, pornography, prostitution, divorces, broken families, filthy movies, homosexual marriage, drugs, alcohol, gambling, consumerism, materialism, hedonism... Why do you persist in your filthy decadent Western culture? It is self-destructive. It destroys families. It destroys children. Nothing good comes out of your sick poisonous culture. The Sharia will save you from yourselves. We will never let you spread the pollution & poison our children's minds. We will fight to the death in order to keep your decadent culture out of our societies. You decadent infidels are disgusting. Keep your vile culture to yourselves. Stop trying to export it to our countries. We will fight you to the end ... and we will prevail ... even if it takes 100 years. Allahu Akbar!

Still think Lady Gaga, Madonna and rappers are popular worldwide? And that Western culture is the envy of the world?

What should we fear most?

NBC being NBC...again

What a Democrat propaganda machine; they should write all NBC newscasts off their income tax as in-kind political contributions.

http://terrellaftermath.com/

Boortz; Back to the MSNBC editing suite  "There was no reference in the MSNBC piece about Romney’s lengthy comparison of the innovation in the private sector vs. government.  The purpose of the editing was to make Romney sound completely out of touch … completely bamboozled by technology. 

" All part of the effort of the ObamaMedia to make sure their tracks are covered and their guy is reelected. 

"Tell me again how the media isn’t biased."

NBC News Covers Up Andrea Mitchell's Misleading Edit

We ran clips of Mitt Romney in Cornwall, Pennsylvania, talking about his trip to WaWa. Well, the RNC and the campaign both reached out to us saying that Romney had more to say about that visit -- about federal bureaucracy and innovation in the private sector. We didn't get a chance to play that, so here it is now.

"We didn’t get a chance to play it" is a lie."...  And Mitchell owes Romney an apology

Limbaugh: 'NBC News Is An Annex of the Democrat National Committee' for Selectively Editing Romney

" "This is another outrageous example of how NBC will do anything to help Obama in 2012, no matter how unethical, irresponsible, and dishonest it is." "

From Nice Deb; Video: Andrea Mitchell Non-Apology Remix

"A remix concentrating on the two most dishonest sentences read off a teleprompter in recent memory. Watch Andrea Mitchell say a pair of carefully crafted sentences to first explain a misleading edit as a simple timing choice and second to segue quickly out of the embarrassing topic. As the face of MSNBC’s dishonestly edited video, she owes her first apology to professional journalists."
