Newt made a socialist attack on Romney, and got drilled for it. It doesn't matter if someone has an R or D by their name, a socialist statement is a socialist statement. This is difficult for you to comprehend, because you bow at the alter of the D. (unless you reverse your basic philosophy 180 degrees and support a guy who wants to dismantle our entitlement programs) |

Drilled so hard that you had no clue about the statement being made. Yeah, absolutely nailed to the wall. |

I shouldn't waste my time educating you, but why stop now. http://www.usatoday.com/USCP/PNI/NEWS/2012-01-13-BCUSRomney5th-LdWritethru_ST_U.htm "We're disappointed" with the line of criticism, said Thomas Donohue, the head of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. The business group doesn't endorse in presidential campaigns, but Donohue said: "We think Romney has had a pretty good track record. Perfect? Hell no, but damn good." Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, who ran against Romney four years ago, wrote in an online letter: "It's surprising to see so many Republicans embrace that left-wing argument against capitalism." And another 2008 foe, former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani, told Fox News Channel: "I'm shocked at what they are doing. I'm going to say it's ignorant. Dumb. It's building something we should be fighting -- ignorance of the American :owned: |

brum, I have a question for you. Why would the liberal media point out Newt's comment? In order to do so, wouldn't they either have to imply that there is something wrong with his statement or actually agree with him? A liberal wouldn't be inclined to do either of those choices, which is likely why his comments were ignored by the media, which is mostly liberal. |

Funny how you are frantically googling responses now to a statement that you never knew was made. :owned: |

Exactly. But a few prominent Repubs called Newt out. Brum just doesn't get it... |

And yet you still can't reconcile how you had no clue about it. Silly lars. |

:facepalm: There's nothing to reconcile. I evaluate statements on their own merit, irregardless of who said them. I don't worship at the alter of R's or D's, which is what you find so difficult to understand. |

I would agree with this. But she is also in a very high profile position and would/should watch how the public/media views her actions due to the economic climate that we are in. I honestly dont care how she spends her own money but I do care how the current administration spend mine. What does this say about our media? Were they really reporting on what designer made the dress (or pants suit ;) that Hillary Clinton or Laura Bush were wearing to certain events? Maybe I just wasnt paying as much attention back then but I sure dont remember the media being gossipers and fashion guru's back then. Did I miss all the hype with our past couple of first ladies? |

Not to defned Brum, but you are asking the wrong question. The question you should be yourself yourself is why did the conservative media NOT jump all over the comment? |
![]() "Liberal, shmiberal. That should be a new word. Shmiberal: one who is assumed liberal, just because he's a professional whiner in the newspaper. If you'll read the subtext for many of those old strips, you'll find the heart of an old-fashioned Libertarian. And I'd be a Libertarian, if they weren't all a bunch of tax-dodging professional whiners." - Berkeley Breathed Meat is Murder. Sweet, delicious murder. | |

Not sure where you get that but I definitely saw it covered by conservative leaning outlets |

the "conservative media"....who the hell is that eel? I know for a fact that Beck covered it extensively, as well as just about every other liberal comment from Newt, and I would be willing to bet just about anything that Limbaugh covered it. My point is simple Eel...the media itself is the "liberal media"...they are one in the same, so of course this comment wasn't covered outside of the above reference outlets. |

I think some of the conservative commentators backed off the story because they Newt represents an alternative to Romney. Now Newt is going after the blue collar vote using class warfare. Ironic that he calls Mitt "Obama-light". |
