"I keep thinking back to a moment in 2006 when Halperin, while promoting The Way to Win, a book he wrote with John Harris, appeared on Hugh Hewitt's radio show and attempted to ingratiate himself with Hewitt and his audience by denouncing mainstream journalism as infested with liberal bias and proclaiming himself unbiased. Near the end of the interview, there was this exchange:
HH: ... The media keeps hiring from the Harvard Crimson. It keeps self-perpetuating from self-elected elites.
MH: Can I introduce you to my interns from Bob Jones University?
HH: Im glad that you have one. They must feel like a stranger in a strange world.
MH: No, because within my unit, were all about being fair and non-partisan. "

Mika Brzezinski called Mark Halperin "our friend" but she was sure Hillary Clinton knew about Harvey Weinstein. Weird how that works out.

That purported that President Clinton was responsible for the 9/11 attacks (during W's first term) plus he called President Obama a "dick" live on Morning Joe abt 6 years ago...

Not too long ago he had three jobs on Cable TV. Today he's lucky if he has any job. I'm sure if Obama had time to watch TV he'd be laughing all the way to the bank. Revenge is a dish best served cold.
