Bastards Don’t Blush, Do They?

Since Chuck Todd has declared that anything that gets blurted out of a Republican’s mouth must be reported, verbatim, by him, and then his job is to report when Obama “messages” against it, here are two lies that are truths until Obama says they aren’t:

1.
Bill Clinton disarmed guards at military bases, which made the Navy Yard a gun-free zone. (This lie references a Washington Times editorial about an Army regulation that keeps soldiers from bringing their personal guns on base. That regulation was put into place in 1992 by the George HW Bush administration. Not to mention that the one of the questions rolling around about the shooter is whether he killed a guard and took that guard’s pistol.)

2.
Warren Buffett opposes Obamacare. (This is based on a quote during the Obamacare debate where Buffet was advocating for changes to the bill, “reported” by the Daily Caller, unsurprisingly. Buffet has issued a statement saying he supports Obamacare today.)

Obama’s going to be very busy man, at least in Chuck Todd’s fantasyland.

is HEAVILY armed, and they were HEAVILY armed when Clinton was President.

Latrobe Gate is the ceremonial entrance to the Navy Yard, Chuckie should waddle over there and LOOK sometime--you can see the Marines, in their uniforms, with their weapons, from M Street.

Chuck Todd is a nitwit. He's also inaccurate and incomplete in his ramblings.

I think actions should have consequences. Chuck Todd, making shit up, acting like an ass, inventing stories, should be mocked for his stupidity and inaccuracies--mercilessly.
