SCOTUS has been the bastion of liberals for how long? You lefties sure liked them when they were advancing your causes. Now that they are slightly to the right and you drag out stale conspiracy theories.

Yeah, I thought she did pretty well too...... for a girl.
She is a girl is she not. You PC folks sure imagine a lot into statements.

How is it "attempting to shake her up" to point out that "Obama's CBO" is actually part of the Legislative Branch and not the Executive? "The girl" just kept on going though, repeating and repeating the same mendacious talking point, never answering a totally legitimate question. I suppose I have to give her credit for being pretty tenacious though.
Isn't that what an interviewer is supposed to do? The best way is to be like Obama and minimize the taking of questions.

Her use of the possessive pronoun, apart from being simply wrong, was calculated to reinforce the talking point that Obama "lied" when the CBO predicted that unemployment would be around 6%. The definite article wouldn't have been effective.

And the remarks about Axelrod are uncalled for,even if they're completely to be expected.

No, but I thought everyone was bitching because she said his CBO.

Fuck Axelrod. As a political hack, why the hell is he out there making comments on policy anyway?
