The Clinton News Network (CNN) totally let her off the hook

[bigdarryl]

Kiss ass Wolf Blitzer asked her if she was for or against undocumented drivers licenses and she said she now is against it. he didn't bother asking her why all of a sudden are you against it when a week ago you were for it.But he had no problem trying to trap Obama into saying something.

[Superman Returns]

1. yep

I said the same last night but my thread got little hits.

[Skip Intro]

2. Its not Hillary's fault Obama couldn't give a clear answer last night.

[bigdarryl]

3. he didn't change his position he's still for the licenses as opposed to saint Hillary the flip flop

[MethuenProgressive]

7. His sputtering "answer" was hilarious, considering the shit he gave Clinton.

:rofl:

[maddiejoan]

4. She never said she was for it.

She said she understood the position Spitzer was in and supported his decision, but that she thought the issue was only made necessary because of the failings of the Bush administration.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

8. It's Ironic

She gave the same thoughtful answer Obama did... They both got roasted for their efforts but HRC was roasted more...

[BootinUp]

10. No its not, its DUic. nt

[maddiejoan]

19. What's ironic was --

--Obama being the one who grilled her --wait--not ironic so much as disingenuous and pathetic.

[BootinUp]

20. He repeated it in this debate too!

Right before his non-answer, LOL.

[maddiejoan]

21. Lotta laffs in my livingroom over it too.

it was one of the funniest things I've ever seen.

5. CNN and the rest of the MSM hates the Clintons. Always have. Always will.

"Clinton News Network"? When you quote Rush Limbaugh, you should give attribution.

[Rowdyboy]

6. Your use of Rush Limbaugh's insult of CNN as the "Clinton News Network"

is really ridiculous. How many hours of bigoted anti-Clinton and anti-Democratic "analysis" have I heard on CNN in the last 15 years? THOUSANDS! To even imply that there is ever ANY possible media bias in favor of any Democrat is absurd. The corporate masters don't allow it.

14. BD is big on Drudge so color me unsurprised.

9. Ed Schultz said the same thing on Hardball this afternoon.

He said the CNN post-debate participants and Woof "bent over for Hillary last night."

[BootinUp]

11. Ed has never impressed me

he went down a few more pegs in my book this afternoon there in terms of good political / analysis coverage.

[LSparkle]

12. I thought he (Ed) was right -- esp about the post-debate coverage

focusing all on her. Ed pointed out that both Obama and Edwards made some good points last night (I think he even said the same of Kucinich) but that CNN's people didn't give them any coverage, preferring to focus on Her Majesty.

[ClarkUSA]

28. I agree. Of course, be prepared to watch Olbermann say Hillary knocked it out of the park

He's never been the same since his back-to-back Bill and Hillary interviews. Media access
to the Clintons is a ratings dream for Countdown, ya know. See this article by Michael
Crowley of TNR on how the Clinton model of media access is similar to the Bush White
House's use of reward and punishment to gain obedience from the Fourth Estate:

I'm impressed that Ed Schultz has stayed independent, given his previous strong support for
Hillary this past summer.

[ronnykmarshall]

16. So Ed's now "hip"

Wasn't there a time when Ed was the great evil Rush sounding moderate pig from hell around here?

[durrrty libby]

17. Ol Ed should remove the stick from from his butt. It would do him good

[sandnsea]

25. Schultz, the DLC's tool

That's what everybody used to say about him. I think he's really starting to see things for himself now, and realizing how bad things are. He's absolutely right about CNN, it was a disgrace to those who fought for freedom of the press.

[BootinUp]

26. Now hes just the netroots tool.

Basically he never could think for himself.

[sandnsea]

27. Better that than the corporatists

and I'm no fan of the lockstep of the netroots either.

[ronnykmarshall]

13. I see more Freeperism are not excepted.

:eyes:

What next, Hilterley Clintoon?

This place sucks ass.

[SaveElmer]

15. ...

[durrrty libby]

18. She was fabulous, wasn't she? I bet your Mama loved her too

[Gman]

22. OH, I thought I had stumbled on some radical RW website

reading posts like this.

Oh, wait. This is DU, but it's getting real hard to tell the difference between the Hillary haters here and the Hillary haters at the RW websites.

[ronnykmarshall]

23. Hard to tell, huh?

[sandnsea]

24. That was the PR set up all day yesterday

The campaign was pushing the story, even MSNBC was pushing it. She got her sound byte moment, just as scripted and predicted. That debate was Pravda redux, no question about it.
