TPM's Christina Bellantoni Goes on MSNBC to Discuss Liz Cheney's Comments About Obama's Dover Visit

[Yelena335]

Barak Obama's Health Care Legislation.... Can it help America's denizens? US views matter! Go to my utube profile page and read how.

[WKaliberr]

who the fuck is Liz Cheney

[MichaelFalcone]

Liz Cheney was absolutely wrong when she said that Bush went to Dover, but did it without the press. Bush NEVER went to Dover. Nor did Mr. Cheney. The more Liz Cheney speaks, the more she demonstrates how much she does not know, what she does not know.

[MooseOfReason]

Wow. Doesn't even call her a "blogger". "Senior Reporter Christina Bellantoni".

And now people from TPM and other blogs will be joining the White House press pool.

According to Rahm Emanuel, though, TPM isn't a news organization because it has a perspective.

Hmm.

[RuflessRecords]

Total Liberal Reporter Logic Failure/ Extreme Bias at 1:05 - 1: 37. Because Liz Cheney thinks the President should not bring along the White House press corp for his viewing of the caskets, she brings up the fact that her father never served in Nam? What does that have to do with whether or not the Pres should bring along all those reporters, except to show what a hack liberal the reporter is. Oh you think he should have viewed them privately, oh well your dad got deferments in Nam so...

[RuflessRecords]

The extreme liberal hack nature of the MSNBC reporter aside, this is a pretty minor thing for Republicans to bring up.

[fistnbone]

God, cable "news" people suck. I wonder if when their bosses give them these ridiculous questions to ask or points to make, the pundit is like "Really?? I have to go on tv and spout this stuff?" Fox News, MSNBC, and CNN are roughly 90% crap. And for the 10% that is not crap, I could get the same information at just about any other news outlet on the web.

[leavepalinalone]

Leave Dick alone!! His deferments were for a good reason, he had a serious case of crotch rot, then on the advice of his lawyers he knocked up his wife to avoid going to war. So what if he likes to send others to war, he is the epitome of a republican. Leave the the head of Dick's family alone!

[zidmt]

The Cheney's are good at criticizing the current president, too bad they we so open mouth towards the last president...lowest public poll ever.

[billgarnett]

I just dont see how rather petty criticisms, whether by Republicans or Democrats, reflect well on the critic or move our national conversation forward. I imagine that there is nothing Obama could do that would not be twisted by Liz Cheney so as to advance her agenda. I would respect her if she would have the best interests of America in mind rather than just being an attack dog from her party.

[bigbengamer]

its funny how she uses bush as an example, when every time he went around the country talking to hometown people, he had hand picked crowds of people who wouldn't challenge his lack of leadership skills.

[RodgersRevolution]

When will Lez Cheney serve in Afghanistan?

[jcb74]

I see what you did there...

Wrong Cheney though ;-)

[HabitualNightOwl]

The Cheney's are so desperate for attention.

Who makes this chicken-hawk family who have NEVER served in the armed forces and who's dada started two failing wars that he couldn't finish... suddenly experts on war?

WHY the fuck are people listening to them? Dumb bitch Liz doesn't get that the families WANTED this. They wanted this. This is called honoring your dead. To hide them in the dark and ignore them and not allowing cameras to show the public. That is wrong and disrespectful.

[bigbengamer]

or sending them to their deaths while joking about the war at a press dinner

[maskedphrogg]

TPMtories?

see logo in lower lefthand corner thru about the 1st min.

Is it revealing, worrying, or both?

Brings to mind supporters of British domination back in the 1700's. They also were called tories.

[hold fast yer flames, I fully realize it was the TPM logo overshadowing a logo from the original content - Stories, and the S got covered up](couldn't resist the easy dig on these so often contradictory journo's at tpmtv)

[vidann1]

Liz Cheney is a liar. Bush or her daddy Dick in the 7 years of the war NEVER went to Dover AFB to meet any bodies of our fallen soldiers. There was no press because Bush banned camera coverage of the coffins. The last of the 5 (why so damn many?) deferments Dick Cheney got to dodge the war came because his wife was pregnant with Liz, too bad others don't get the same soft treatment.

[DixieDale]

Liz is trying to salvge her father's legacy, but no way can Cheney ever be considered a heroic figure.

Give it up Liz - we hate your father for the damage he did to our country. Now I hate you, too, for trying to smear Obama like this.

Disgusting group, the Republicans of today.

[greatbroad]

Sounds to me like daddy wrote those words for his daughter.

If the press always goes along with the US President, then Cheney says otherwise, who is trying to fool who, here?

[wmg111]

What is this "Bush often went without photographers"?

That's bloody convenient isn't it?

He never went because he really didn't care.

See how they try to sanitize the legacy of the worst administration in recent memory.

Don't buy it for a minute.

[COM0fAek]

Draft Deferment Dick never served one day in the military, never spent a day in harm's way, and to his everlasting shame, never spent one second at Dover to witness just a small sampling of the death and carnage wrought by his jingoistic polices.  Draft Deferment Dick has the blood of tens of thousands of dead, maimed, and wounded on his hands.

Draft Deferment Dick is the very personification of evil, and now his daughter has willingly joined him in that special, private hell.

[Philinspaces]

Liz should be muzzled.

[k166a]

+1 to that

[mrbhave]

I say, give her a bigger podium, along with the likes of Sarah Palin and Michelle Bachman. That gives us three times the amusement.

[KosmicCitizen]

Liz Cheney is a horrible person.

[KataVideo]

don't insult horrible persons by comparing them to liz cheney

[tommyd110]

Cunt

[hellshade2]

other than being dick cheneys daughter why exactly is liz cheney even on the news being intervirewed all the time? this womans opinions mean nothing to me at all

[TrollBuster9090]

"Other than being Dick Cheney's daughter, why exactly is Liz Cheney even on the news?"

Because she was the Assistant Secretary of State! A job which she obviously earned on merit...oh wait. Well...because she supervised people while she had that job! True she only had one employee, but she was Shaha Riza, a bigshot in the World Bank until Paul Wolfowitz...oh, wait.

Okay, forget I said anything. She's on TV because she's Dick Cheney's daughter. End of story.

[GreenEnergy2112]

Liz Cheney is from BIZARRO WORLD

[junkforkaryn]

liz cheney is the right winger's shameless sticky-bottomed crack whore.

[RobertSeattle]

I wish Liz Cheney would just DITHER away.

[whoo689]

One of the experts at the Independent Institute just wrote an excellent article on our ridiculous overadoration and adulation of military service and war. You guys might wanna check it out.

[RZetlin]

Who gives about Liz Cheney.

She has no credibility on this subject.

[TrollBuster9090]

I can only conclude that the PNAC neo-cons figured Dick "Dead Wrong" Cheney would have more credibility in the public mind if he had tits.

It makes about as much sense as all of their other theories.

[whoo689]

"No greater sacrifice to the nation" than dying in some bogus foreign war that doesn't increase our freedom and is a waste of money?? Yeah, sure, Liz. Dream on

[doink1422]

Lez Cheney is a bitch begging for daddy's attention.

[Eldrad235]

Liz cheney is just a loud mouth... simple as that

[sleonardelli]

Let me guess, Liz Cheney made this statement on Faux "News". Did anyone agree with her or try to correct her?

[ETericET]

Republicans are very sick people.

[pewpewmigoo]

Liz cheney will say anything to bad mouth Obama. On another point God Christina Bellantoni is hot .
