politico, ailes, o'reilly, christie out--Hillary Clinton in the White House 2016

Please...O'Reilly and Ailes are exposed on this one...right, it's a scary thought but Piers Morgan already called it on his show last week when he noted the big "O" neglected to report on bridge-o-rama.  

Obviously, Christie is fox man for the position in the White House.  

As a dem, I liked Christie, too.  He was an exciting force on the political scene for 2016 but now that ship has sailed and the repubs will lose again. 

Between Bob Filner and Chris Christie my feelings have been hurt.  

It takes a woman to do the real big jobs and my girl Hillary will be ready to clean up the mess O'Reilly, Ailes and Christie left behind.  

Hillary Clinton--2016


Chloe Louise--Hillary girl forever

Bill O’Reilly comes to Chris Christie’s defense

Fox News’s Bill O’Reilly defended Republican Gov. Chris Christie in the wake of his administration’s bridge scandal, saying the New Jersey governor should be believed and he is being made a target for 2016.
“He says he didn’t know about it, fair-minded people should believe him, until there’s evidence to the contrary,” O’Reilly said Monday on “The O’Reilly Factor.”

In a segment he called “The Politics of Destruction,” O’Reilly said the flap over the lane closures is a way for Democrats to paint Christie as a bully and take him down as the strongest threat to Hillary Clinton if both decide to run in 2016.
O’Reilly called the scandal “pretty bad” but supported Christie’s defense that he was unaware of the situation.
O’Reilly said that unlike earlier GOP presidential candidates — specifically, Mitt Romney and Sen. John McCain of Arizona — Christie would have been aggressive enough to take on issues like Benghazi and the Rev. Jeremiah Wright. He added that Christie’s appeal also separates him from the potential 2016 pool, as well.
“The Democratic Party does not fear hard-right conservatives like Sen. [Ted] Cruz and Sen. [Rand]Paul. The left believes there are not enough committed conservative voters to elect those men,” O’Reilly said.
Although he said Cruz and Paul will be factors in the primaries, he maintained Christie is the top target of the Democrats.
“Christie is the biggest threat to the Democratic Party. We are seeing a personal campaign lodged against him that will not calm down any time soon,” O’Reilly said.
“They have got to destroy Christie before he can get to the primaries,” he added.

Geraldo Rivera, NPR reporter stir up old feud

A long standing feud between Fox News host Geraldo Rivera and NPR Media Reporter David Folkenflik was brought back to the surface Monday evening as the two engaged on Twitter over a 2001 report Rivera did from Afghanistan.

Folkenflik is a lying leech paid by taxpayers


While reporting from Tora Bora in 2001 for Fox News, Rivera described on air an incident of friendly fire, claiming he had been on the scene where three Americans had died. Reporting then for the Baltimore Sun, Folkenflik found that Rivera was actually 300 miles from the site he described and that no Americans had died there that day. Rivera blamed his mistake on the “fog of war” and said he had confused the event near Kandahar with one where he actually was in Tora Bora — but the Tora Bora incident occurred three days after Rivera’s report.
This all came back up on Twitter when a man tweeted at Rivera while watching Folkenflik on CSPAN talking about his recent book "Murdoch's World" about Fox News where he details the Tora Bora incident. 
Rivera shot back: As I proved years ago, Folkenflik's story was dead wrong-a grossly unfair anti-Fox hatchet job" and that he is "pulling documents (and) will soon prove how he lied (and) how his (mainstream media) pals willfully ignored truth."
When asked by a follower why Rivera was just now pulling documents on a more than decade-old report, Rivera said he "proved it (in) 2002 but my facts didn't fit anti-Fox anti-war narrative so he skated."
"His premise-that there was no friendly fire in Tora Bora-is a provable lie," Rivera continued. "This skunk has been hiding at NPR for a decade cashing in on his anti Fox bias."
Rivera then promised to produce the documents proving his side of the story by 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday. 
Over a series of more than 15 tweets, Folkenflik responded to Rivera, outlining his original reporting and noting "I'd be very interested in hearing from @geraldorivera what proof he has now that he could not offer in the years since."
Stay tuned....

Geraldo Rivera Lays Out Bernie Kerik Lawyer Joe Tacopina: Geraldo Rivera Radio Round-Up Jan 14 2014

Geraldo Rivera Lays Out Bernie Kerik Lawyer Joe Tacopina


Right, and the headline reads:

And Keeps His Cool........


Well, Geraldo often says Bernard Kerik, former NYPD big man is his friend, in fact, he has him on his show each Monday for a very interesting take on police and New York City current events.

Well, this morning on Geraldo Radio, WABC New York, Geraldo just could not resist asking Joe Tac about his poor representation of Bernie during his recent big trial in NYC resulting in a sentence.

Obviously, Geraldo was offended by Joe's treatment of his friend--he was scheduled to talk about his client A-Rod.

Geraldo nailed him down fast and Joe Tac did the sidestep dance.

Joe Tacopina would not really answer the questions on Bernard Kerik--he did go on very well about A-Rod as touted.

Geraldo Rivera reminded Mr. Joe T. that he was influential in his career during the OJ Simpson period when Geraldo had his very successful CNBC show featuring the trial of OJ Simpson and very well-spoken attorneys from the area.

I well remember that show--It was one of the best OJ shows on television.

Good job, Geraldo and Noam for creating a heated--lively discussion without losing your cool.  It's a good story and it would be so fun to see this continuing saga.

Now we have Alan Dershowitz and Ann Coulter......regular Tuesday guests.

Will Alan discuss the legacy of Ariel Sharon......

Alan says Chris Christie is a classic case of willful blindness--"You mess with Christie and this is what you get."

Ann does not care for Christie as she feels he screwed up on amnesty but does not feel bridge-o-rama has anything to do with politics.

Alan Dershowitz--agree or disagree--is always an amazing guest.

Alan is sad about the whole thing because he liked Gov Christie--Christie and Bob Filner hurt my feelings too

Dershowitz said Christie's actions were reckless, thoughtless and stupid and it is completely inappropriate in the oval office.

Ann very shrilly stated it does not make sense to say it was politically motivated.  Geraldo very softly lays out Ann, too.  "In your view as long as your against undocumented illegal immigrants you're okay."

Alan says illegals have contributed to our society not to mention fleeing the holocaust.

Thank you, Alan, for your insightful statements.

Good show, Geraldo

Elvis Presley Biographer Alan Hanson on Elvis and the Everly Brothers

So honored to have Elvis Presley biographer, Alan Hanson on my blog--I could not resist asking him about Phil Everly and his possible influence on Elvis.


Alan:

The Everly Brothers couldn't have been an early influence on Elvis, since Elvis already was a huge star by the spring of 1957, when the Everlys had their first hit, "Bye Bye Love." I've never heard of Elvis saying anything, positive or negative, about them. Both sang a mix of rock songs and ballads, although I'd say Don and Phil are best known today for their ballads, while Elvis is best known for his rock 'n' roll stuff. Their singing styles were quite different, of course. The Everly Brothers used two-person harmonies, while Elvis was primarily a lead vocalist. Occasionally, Elvis would sing duets that can be seen as similar to the Everly Brothers style, such as on "All Shook Up" and "Good Luck Charm," on both of which he sang with Gordon Stoker of the Jordanaires

My mother was only 19 when I was born, so she was young enough to enjoy pop music in the mid-1950s. I distinctly remember that "Bye Bye Love" was one of the 45 rpm records she had and played on her portable stereo. She never bought an Elvis record, though. Once I became an Elvis fan in 1962, I made sure she, and everyone else in the family, heard a steady diet of Elvis music until I went away to college. I also enjoyed the Everly Brothers when I was a teenager, and I still do today. I think I have about a dozen of their songs on my iPod today.

Thank you, Alan, for telling us about Elvis and the Everlys.
