Tuesday night, however, may have provided fireworks no one could have predicted. Don’t believe me? What if I told you it involved Luntz referring to one of the members jokingly as Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg and another participant dropping a “bullsh**” all on live TV?<br />
<br />
It all happened in the span of about five minutes. After an undecided woman Luntz calls “Robin” talked about why she was impressed with Romney, Luntz quipped, “I want to know one thing: How did Ruth Bader Ginsburg get into my focus group?”<br />
<br />
Shortly after, another participant launched into a tirade agaisnt the president:<br />
<br />
“It’s because he’s lied about everything — he lied to get … elected in 2008, that’s why I voted for him — I bought his bull. And he’s lied about everything. He hasn’t come through on anything. And he’s been bullshi**ing the public with the media buying it…”<br />
“Sean, I apologize,” a sheepish Luntz quickly responded. “You cannot do that.”<br />
<br />
Watch below (the Ginsburg part starts at 1:40 — the bull comes at around 2:30):<br />

The Presidential Lies, Holder Lies, The Mexicans PaySo Univision decides to tell the truth... To many dead Mexicans... Univision is the Spanish speaking US channel.<br />
<br />
Our government armed the Mexican drug cartels. The killings were horrific!!!!<br />
<br />
The Obama administration clearly hoped that the Department of Justice’s Inspector General report on Operation Fast and Furious would be the last word on the scandal. which has been tied to hundreds of deaths in Mexico and the murders of two American law-enforcement officials. However, a new report from Univision to be broadcast tomorrow, previewed here by ABC News, may put the issue back on the front pages. One source called Univision’s findings the “holy grail” that Congressional investigators have been seeking:<br />

Often lost amid the rancor in Washington are the stories of dozens of people killed by guns that flowed south as part of the undercover operation, and later slipped out of view from U.S. officials. Univision’s Investigative Unit (Univision Investiga) has identified massacres committed using guns from the ATF operation, including the killing of 16 young people attending a party in a residential area of Ciudad Juárez in January of 2010.<br />
<br />
The guns didn’t stop in Mexico, either:<br />
<br />
Additional guns, previously unreported by congressional investigators, found their way into the hands of drug traffickers across Latin America in countries such as, Honduras and Colombia, as well as the U.S. Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. A person familiar with the recent congressional hearings called Univision’s findings “the holy grail” that Congress had been searching for.<br />
<br />
The Daily Caller also reports on Univision’s findings and the impact they may have on the scandal:<br />
<br />
“The consequences of the controversial ‘Fast and Furious’ undercover operation put in place by the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) in 2009 have been deadlier than what has been made public to date,” the network said. “The exclusive, in-depth investigation by Univision News’ award-winning Investigative Unit — Univision Investiga — has found that the guns that crossed the border as part of Operation Fast and Furious caused dozens of deaths inside Mexico.”<br />
<br />
Among other groups of Fast and Furious victim stories Univision says it will tell in the special to air Sunday evening at 7 p.m., is one about how “16 young people attending a party in a residential area of Ciudad Juárez in January of 2010″ were gunned down with weapons the Obama administration gave to drug cartel criminals through Fast and Furious.<br />
<br />
“Univision News’ Investigative Unit was also able to identify additional guns that escaped the control of ATF agents and were used in different types of crimes throughout Mexico,” the network added. “Furthermore, some of these guns — none of which were reported by congressional investigators — were put in the hands of drug traffickers in Honduras, Puerto Rico, and Colombia. A person familiar with the recent congressional hearings called Univision’s findings ‘the holy grail’ that Congress had been searching for.”<br />
<br />
Sharyl Attkisson at CBS News reminds us that the Obama administration is still hiding Kevin O’Reilly, a key figure in Operation Fast and Furious:<br />
<br />
O’Reilly, then a White House National Security staffer, had phone and email exchanges about Fast and Furious from July 2010 to Feb. 2011 with the lead ATF official on the case: ATF Special Agent in Charge Bill Newell. Just days after Newell testified to Congress on July 26, 2011 that he’d shared information with O’Reilly, whom he described as a long time friend, O’Reilly was transferred to Iraq and not available for questioning. Thereafter, he declined interviews with congressional investigators and the IG.<br />
<br />
In a letter sent to O’Reilly’s attorney Thursday, Issa and Grassley state that O’Reilly’s “sudden transfer” to Iraq took him out of pocket in their investigation, and placed him in a position that had already been given to somebody else, raising “serious questions about O’Reilly’s assignment in Baghdad (and) the motivation for his transfer there.” …<br />
<br />
“Given that O’Reilly was the link connecting the White House to the scandal, and that the President subsequently asserted executive privilege over the documents pertaining to Fast and Furious, it is imperative that the American people get to the bottom of O’Reilly’s involvement with Fast and Furious,” says the letter to O’Reilly’s attorney.<br />
<br />
It goes on to say that if O’Reilly does not agree to an interview within 30 days, congressional Republicans will have no choice but to “use compulsory process” or subpoena power to require his testimony.<br />
<br />
The Univision report will air at 7 pm ET Sunday night, with English-language subtitles.10ksnookerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13432559078921206197noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7251914425266640944.post-54474987762427399692012-09-28T11:10:00.002-04:002012-09-28T11:45:19.302-04:00Obama's broken promises12 million more jobs after Obama is reelected?<br />

<br />
Republican Governor Luis Fortuño of Puerto Rico told The Daily Caller that GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney looked him “in the eye” and said he would “provide the leadership necessary” to help Puerto Rico become a state.<br />
<br />
TheDC asked Fortuño if he thought Romney or President Barack Obama would be more helpful to the cause of Puerto Rican statehood.<br />
<br />
“I prefer Mitt Romney for many reasons, not just because of status,” he said before addressing an event sponsored by the Hispanic Leadership Network held during the Republican National Convention.<br />
<br />
“However, I must tell you something: He [Romney] looked me straight in the eye and he told me that he was convinced that Puerto Ricans had contributed to the nation for so long, yet we were not partaking fully in the responsibilities and benefits of our citizenship, and that it was about time that we decide what we want to do, and should that be statehood that he would provide the leadership necessary to move that forward.”<br />
<br />
Fortuño, who supports statehood for Puerto Rico, was hesitant to predict the final outcome of the process.<br />
<br />
“Until Puerto Rican voters ask for it, there’s not much more we can say about this. Puerto Rican voters so far have not voted for statehood. So until that happens, it is — it will be unfair to characterize ahead of time what will Congress do,” he said.<br />
<br />
“What I can tell you is — and I served for four years in Congress — what I can tell you is that they’ll be open to a request that is supported by a majority of voters. But that has not happened before, so it will be up to the voters in Puerto Rico to request statehood. And then we can move on to the next stage.”10ksnookerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13432559078921206197noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7251914425266640944.post-35135354537557085742012-08-28T11:01:00.001-04:002012-08-29T13:59:24.825-04:00Gingrich: Obama Like a 'Teenager' Running Up Nation's Debt<span style="background-color: white;">The United States has “never had a president who behaved as much like a teenager as Barack Obama” by building up debt and spending the money of future generations, Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich told Newsmax.TV in an interview at the Republican National Convention.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: white;">America, Gingrich said, will wind up paying more interest on the debt than it will for defense. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: white;">“You know, we’ve never had a president who behaved as much like a teenager as Barack Obama," said Gingrich the exclusive interview. “He’s running around with a credit card, spending our money, our children’s money and our grandchildren’s money building up a huge debt and if interest rates go up a bit at some point, we’ll end up paying more interest on the federal debt than we paid for national defense. People need to realize how a big a threat this is to our longer economic future.”</span><br />

<br />
Did you like the Newt Gingrich/Piers Morgan bout earlier today? That was just the undercard. John Sununu appeared on CNN’s Starting Point this morning with Soledad O’Brien and fought the main bout in the center(-left) ring. Where Morgan allowed Gingrich to have his say, O’Brien and Sununu repeatedly interrupted each other with charges of talking-points reliance, trading haymakers all fight long.<br />
<br />
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" height="374" id="ep" width="416"><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="wmode" value="transparent" /><param name="movie" value="http://i.cdn.turner.com/cnn/.element/apps/cvp/3.0/swf/cnn_416x234_embed.swf?context=embed&videoId=bestoftv/2012/08/14/exp-point-sununu-two.cnn" /><param name="bgcolor" value="#000000" /><embed src="http://i.cdn.turner.com/cnn/.element/apps/cvp/3.0/swf/cnn_416x234_embed.swf?context=embed&videoId=bestoftv/2012/08/14/exp-point-sununu-two.cnn" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" bgcolor="#000000" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" width="416" wmode="transparent" height="374"></embed></object>
<br />
“I have the Congressional Budget Office Budget report right here,” Sununu said, waving it on camera. “Go read page 13 and 14.”<br />
<br />
“I can tell you what it says, yes,” said O’Brien. “It cuts a reduction in the expected rate of growth, which you know. Not cutting benefits to the elderly. Benefits will be improved. The focus is on hospitals. The focus is on health insurance.”<br />
<br />
“He gutted the program by $711 million [sic],” said Sununu of Obama. “And the fact is he reduces services to Medicare beneficiaries currently on the package. What the difference is, is that Romney says no impact to anybody 55 or over. It is clear in here that the reduction in services start on January 1, 2013 and Obama stole that money to put it into programs under Obamacare…”<br />
<br />
“The hospitals agreed to that,” O’Brien countered. “The drug providers agreed to that because their theory is that what they’re going to be able to do is make up by the number of people who come into the system. It doesn’t reduce or cut the benefits. Right….”<br />
<br />
“Soledad, stop this!” said Sununu. “All you’re doing is mimicking the stuff that comes out of the White House and gets repeated on the Democratic blog boards out there….”<br />
<br />
“I’m telling you what FactCheck.com tells you,” she insisted. “I’m telling you what the CBO tells you. I’m telling you what CNN’s independent analysis does.”<br />
<br />
“Put an Obama bumper sticker on your forehead when you do this,” Sununu shot back.
<br />
Sununu meant to say $711 billion, of course. In ObamaCare, $711 million is just a rounding error. Both of the combatants flashed paper on screen while talking, although in O’Brien’s case, that may not mean much. The reduction — and it is a reduction – of the $700+ billion comes from Medicare Advantage, the successful public/private partnership that allowed seniors a chance to access increased benefits and more comprehensive coverage in a federally-managed exchange. Taking that option from seniors and the disabled means less coverage for the 25% of Medicare recipients who opted into it, and the money gets shifted to pay for part of the Medicaid expansion and the subsidies for people buying health insurance in the exact same kind of exchanges that Democrats found so objectionable in Medicare.<br />
<br />
Maybe O’Brien should pay a little more attention to Barack Obama’s own words. The GOP reminds us that in November 2009, Obama not only proudly owned those cuts to Medicare, he threatened to veto any attempt to reverse them:<br />
<br />

<br />
Claiming that the $700 billion isn’t a reduction for current Medicare recipients is just nonsense. But it is a prerequisite to join Mantra Club. And now it seems clear that Romney/Ryan surrogates intend to challenge media figures on bias when they try to use Democratic talking points on the Ryan plan in interviews this week, which is good news indeed.<br />
