 ratilfar says: About this latest hiring by NBC, Atrios observed: "if only the Villager values of nepotism and torture could be combined somehow." The American Prospect's Adam Serwer quicky noted that they already have been: "Liz Cheney." Liz Cheney is really the perfect face of Washington's political culture, a perfect manifestation of all the rotting diseases that define it and a pure expression of what our country has become and the reasons for its virtual ruin. She should really be on every political TV show all day every day. It's almost as though things can't really be expressed thoroughly without including her. Jenna Bush as a new NBC "reporter" on The Today Show -- at a time when every media outlet is firing and laying off real reporters -- is a very nice addition though. Cont... Just to underscore a very important, related point: all of the above-listed people are examples of America's Great Meritocracy, having achieved what they have solely on the basis of their talent, skill and hard work -- The American Way. By contrast, Sonia Sotomayor -- who grew up in a Puerto Rican family in Bronx housing projects; whose father had a third-grade education, did not speak English and died when she was 9; whose mother worked as a telephone operator and a nurse; and who then became valedictorian of her high school, summa cum laude at Princeton, a graduate of Yale Law School, and ultimately a Supreme Court Justice -- is someone who had a whole litany of unfair ad... Amazing he could write that whole thing without so much as mentioning the word Kennedy. Or Gore Or Clinton Clicking links is not your forte, is it? Or logic, or reading comprehension for that matter. I get it, but it seems you don't. I do get it, which makes your point, if there was one, moot. No, n2; you missed it again. All of the political dynasties need to die; but first and foremost the hypocritical right-wing, power-hungry, violence-loving Bushes, Cheneys, Rockefellers, etc. Nepotism doesn't do anyone any good. Does anyone else think its funny how the very outspoken critic of Affirmative Action Clarence Thomas thinks he landed his SCOTUS job by his merit alone? I'm quite sure he was the single most qualified person for the job, and not just a "token" I read many of his decisions, when he actually writes them. Complete crap, through and through. Yeah, because "I know you are but what am I" is a great way to prove a point. And no neither the people you linked to or you actually get it. All of of these are wrong and if they actually read the article with all the updates they would see that. Besides, what skill set, other than her family name, does Jenna Bush bring to the Today Shown when real reporters are being fired left and right? That's the point, that moronic pundits who only go their jobs by who their daddy/mommy was spew all kinds of stupidity and their taken seriously by the so called liberal media. There I spelled it out for you. Ah, but I see why this irks you so much n2, it's the Bush part of it, isn't it. See that's the problem with royalty (besides the in-breeding), you always end up with the inbreed moron sitting in the throne, as America and the world, learned the hard way oh so recently. LOL, now dat' was funny!  Besides, what skill set, other than her family name, does Jenna Bush bring to the Today Shown when real reporters are being fired left and right?And what about Mika Brzezinski, Zbigniew Brzezinski's daughter, the co-host of MSNBC's weekday morning program, Morning Joe, where she reads the news headlines for the program? So-called real TV Reporters are nothing more than Talking Heads reading approved Associated Press Scripts. If that's all they're good for, why not give us something really hot to look at, like Bianna Golddryga, instead of menopausal old bags and frumpy antidotes for Viagra. Bianna Golddryga http://www.facebook.com/Bianna?v=info You're right about her. She does sport some killer boots. But her fawning over her father (hello, Afghanistan anyone?) can get sickening at times, especially when she allows him to talk down to her on live TV. Might as well take her boots and tell her to get back to the kitchen. Goodness, n2! You certainly have the links to some of the scummiest, sleaziest people in the US, don't you? You seem to know more UnAmerican people than actual Americans. — Comment removed by moderator — |
