Podesta Plant at White House Presser: “a partisan, ideologically-driven individual from an organization that is aggressively promoting the Obama agenda was granted media credentials for the White House.”
(H/t:Â Reader Peter Hughes)
The Internet home for American gay conservatives.
Part of me can’t wait until the 20% inflation rates kick in, and we get to see how the Dear Teleprompter’s partisans spin *that*, or ask their softball questions in the face of that.
/schadenfreude off
The hypocrisy pie has many slices.
hey, I miss the good old days when the soc-cons had studmuffins like Matt Sanchez to parade out in front of CPAC’s adoring fans and mug/hug AnnieGetURGunCoulter.

They do know how to feed the throngs the right kind of red meat, no? Too bad no one there knew what they were consuming.
And a Jeanne Kirkpatrick Award winner, no less.
God, I bet Jeanne was tossing in the grave at that one… I literally can hear her voice: “Oh what? Who? Sanchez? The stupid idiots”.
At least it wasn’t like he got press credentials in the Bush White House. But he could get them now, I bet. God I love that shot on his blog of the Raptor.

Watching MM morph into torrentprime is proving most entertaining.
#3 – M-Matt, now you are really scaring me.

hey V, nice try at the guilt by association.
If you haven’t figured it out, I’m not one of your DittoHeaded automotons. I’m sorry you have such a snide, mean spirited snarky perspective on comments here, but I guess that’s expected in your exclusive world where if one doesn’t ping back a pong like the atari game, one is suspect.
Guilt by association? How very… ummm… Joe McCarthy of you.
Technically speaking, “using rhetoric that could easily be mistaken for that of a left-wing troll” is not the same “guilt by association.”
I always say “my work is done” when a given troll is at a point of frenzy where he discredits himself just by opening his mouth. (joke)
#6 – M-Matt, in case you haven’t heard the news, Joe McCarthy was actually right a couple of times regarding the threat of communism within the upper echelons of the federal government in the late 1940s and early 1950s.
Unfortunately, liberals have tainted McCarthy and his so-called “witch hunts” as somehow being something akin to sinister evil.

Peter cautions: “M-Matt, now you are really scaring me”
Hey Peter, no need to worry unless you’re going to suspend your own critical skills and just play junior dittohead to V and ILC. Then, I’m the one who is worried for you… you’re a lot better than that.
Yeah, funny that about Joe McCarthy. Kind of know a little about him myself… my Dad was one of his investigators on loan from the Bureau, worked for the HUAC and we had lots of dinnertime stories told at around the table when I was growing up.
But thanks for the notation. Of course, you know, the employment of his guilt by association tactics in the latter half of his incredibly short Senate career were about as unAmerican and disloyal to the standards of any civil society as one can get… kind of better suited for Stalinist Russia than Washington DC.
It isn’t all farLeft spin coming out of a guilty Hollywood or guilty labor movement. Heck, I was the kid in 4th grade who could tell the teacher while we were studying the Great Sit Down Strike that there was a formal, organized Red Brigade inside 7 of the 9 factories hit by shutdowns in Flint. And I could and did name the members.
Funny the things you learn at the dinner table. Even more funny how some petty commenters here can call you a troll without regard for the truth, or act surprised when you call them out on their intellectually dishonest debate ploys and then do it all over to the next commenter they take exception to… funny that.
#11 – I refuse to play the childish game of “him vs him” regarding your ongoing beefs with other posters and vice versa. I don’t have a dog in this hunt, so please do as Bruce and Dan have suggested and take it somewhere else.

I would also suggest you and everyone else read the book by M. Stanton Evans entitled “Blacklisted by History,” in which he proves that Sen. McCarthy’s reputation was tarnished by what is often called “the Rosetta Stone of lies.”
The result of the liberal re-write of history was that rather than own up to their moral blindness to Soviet espionage, Democrats fired up the liberal slander machine, which would be deployed again and again over the next half century to the present day. In hiding their own perfidy, liberals were guilty of every sin they lyingly imputed to McCarthy. There were no “McCarthyites” until liberals came along.
By the way, this is not a tinfoil-hat-wearing conspiracy theorist who wrote this book. Based on a lifetime’s work, including nearly a decade of thoroughgoing research, stores of original documents and never-before-seen government files, this 672-page book ends the argument on Joe McCarthy.
I’m including the Amazon link here, but also look for it hidden behind stacks of Barack Obama’s latest self-serving book at a bookstore near you.

Thanks, Peter. I have a backlog of books these days, but have added that one to my Amazon Wishlist.
Well, thanks Peter. I just grabbed the kindle edition of Evans book. I’ve been reading the Freeman since high school… you’re right, he isn’t a tin foil hat guy. I find fascinating the Hiss-Chambers affair is still discussed as almost a current event in some political corners.
Guys I don’t understand your 2 or 3 way pissing contest. New visitors to the blog may not understand either. May I suggest getting each others e mail address and take it private?? I’m wasting time reading posts I thought were advancing a thread and it turns out to be just a personal inside joke. If it’s none of my business, sorry for mentioning it.
#16 – Another great book (but probably WAY out of print) is “Out of Bondage” by Elizabeth Bentley, the so-called “Red Spy Queen” of the 1940s. Bentley was the lover of KGB chief Jacob Golos who helped create espionage webs all over NY and DC.
She personally had contacts in the White House (specifically Harry Dexter White), the Silvermaster Group, Whittaker Chambers, and on and on. After Golos died of a massive heart attack in her arms due to stress, she turned double agent and reported everything to the FBI.
For anyone under 45, this is a must-read. Some viruses never die.

Hey, the last administration gay press passes to prostitutes.
Sorry, but you guys lowered the bar so low that your outrage makes me laugh.
No it didn’t. Houndentenor, you’re just telling falsehoods now.
It gave one to an ex-prostitute but so what? Operative word, “ex”. I’m sure a lot of people in Obama’s pressroom are “ex” a lot of things.
#20 – Houndie would be surprised to see how many former MSM newsies are now either working for the SnObama administration or are actively engaged in lobbying it.
And let’s not forget the incestuous relationships between the MSM and the federal government:
Andrea Mitchell, NBC News, Washington is married to Fmr Fed Chair and noted Keynesian Alan Greenspan
Fmr Senate Dem Ldr Tom Daschle is married to lobbyist Linda Daschle
CNN’s resident terrorist sympathizer Christiane Amanpour is married to Fmr Clinton Treas Sec’y Robert Rubin
And on and on the list goes.
Bias? What liberal media bias?

Peter H.
#19: “Hey, the last administration gay press passes to prostitutes.”
Yeah Houndentenor, but the difference is that the Bush Administration didn’t know that Gannon was an ex-prostitute. The Obama Administration is well aware that Shakir is a WHORE right now.
