Shock: Media Circling the Wagons Around Jon Gruber, Obama, Obamacare

I'm beginning to become very, very angry.

A WaPo blogger Jose DelReal attempted to lie on behalf of Gruber's admission of a lie, thus now making the Washington Post itself part of the lie.



Charles C.W. Cooke note that they started lying, they continued lying, and they'll die with fresh lies on their lips.

And why is Washington Post blogger Jose Del Real so invested in Obamacare?

Well, he's the original model for Pajama Boy, that's why.

42 Washington Post blogger Jose Del Real

I know this for a fact because I know people who personally benefit from it:

All MSM outlets are DESPERATE to hire minorities -- in particular blacks and Hispanics -- because they are stung by the criticism of their all-white newsrooms.

Problem is, they can't find any semi-qualified minority applicants. Solution:

Hire any and every white person who happens to have an Hispanic-sounding name.

Doesn't matter is they are wealthy Spaniards or the scions of aristocratic Central American land-barons or the descendants of genocidal conquistadors. Hispanic last name = OPPRESSED MINORITY.

And that is how Jose Del Real has a more prestigious and higher-paying job than you.

122 Son, we live in a world that has walls. And those walls have to be guarded by men with guns. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Del Real? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Santiago and you curse the Marines. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know: that Santiago's death, while tragic, probably saved lives. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives...You don't want the truth. Because deep down, in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that wall. You need me on that wall.

We use words like honor, code, loyalty...we use these words as the backbone to a life spent defending something. You use 'em as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom I provide, then questions the manner in which I provide it! I'd rather you just said thank you and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon and stand a post. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you're entitled to!


Yeah, I know Jessup is a bad guy, and this is kind of counter to what I really mean.

156 So at about the end of Jose DelReal's blog at WaPo again they go to this crapola--


Although Gruber apologized for the language he used, Gruber said that the larger point he was trying to make centered on the political pressures that shaped the law. He added that those pressures ""ed to an incomplete law with some typos."


To that I'll just repost Michael F. Cannon at The SCOTUS blog--


Myth #3: King is based on "a drafting error".

The requirement that tax-credit recipients enroll in coverage "through an Exchange established by the State" appears twice explicitly in the tax-credit eligibility rules, and a further seven times by cross-reference. It was added to the text at multiple stages of the legislative process, including under the supervision of Senate leaders and White House staff.

That's not a drafting error. Not even the Obama administration argues it was.

A guy who dug for facts and then reported them. I studied at the Edward R. Murrow School of Journalism. I studied hard. I went on to a career in the intelligence world and did very well, relying on the basics I'd learned as a budding journalist. These included ethics, integrity, truth.

But today I hate the media with a hatred that burns hotter than a thousands suns.

I'm not grasping the reference to Steiner. I've seen it several times but I don't recognize it.


In the movie Downfall (Untergang)Hitler is in his bunker mapping out how to defend Berlin as the Russians envelope it. He's counting on Steiner's army to cut them off.

When his staff informs him that Steiner's attack will not be coming he flips out. People have used comic subtitles on that clip to have him spewing about nearly every subject.

232 Jose Del Real should be shamed out of the journalism business by a concerted, coordinated and sustained campaign of ridicule. However, that isn't going to happen. All he has to do is lay low for a few days. It will all pass. We don't do sustained very well. Liberals can go months on something as stupid as "maccaca" or a lane closure on a bridge. They know how to do hours of programing and they never tire of writing about it in blogs. We will see something shiny tomorrow and forget all about this.

A wrapper whirled inside the capricious embrace of a dust devil in the parking lot. A young boy stepped into a windowless panel van, his childlike curiosity at the offered candy taking back through memory's sepia-toned alleys, as the sky outside faded from shale to umber.

Turning back to my computer as I took a leisurely sip of penis, I noticed something in one of the browser windows I had open. No, not Andrew's profile on HIVlounge, "Where the H is for HOTT."

Something dark. Something evil.

"I don't have to tell you things are bad. Everybody knows things are bad. It's a depression. Everybody's out of work or scared of losing their job. The dollar buys a nickel's worth, banks are going bust, shopkeepers keep a gun under the counter. Punks are running wild in the street and there's nobody anywhere who seems to know what to do, and there's no end to it. We know the air is unfit to breathe and our food is unfit to eat, and we sit watching our TV's while some local newscaster tells us that today we had fifteen homicides and sixty-three violent crimes, as if that's the way it's supposed to be.

"We know things are bad - worse than bad. They're crazy. It's like everything everywhere is going crazy, so we don't go out anymore. We sit in the house, and slowly the world we are living in is getting smaller, and all we say is, 'Please, at least leave us alone in our living rooms. Let me have my toaster and my TV and my steel-belted radials and I won't say anything. Just leave us alone.'

"Well, I'm not gonna leave you alone. I want you to get mad! I don't want you to protest. I don't want you to riot - I don't want you to write to your congressman because I wouldn't know what to tell you to write. I don't know what to do about the depression and the inflation and the Russians and the crime in the street. All I know is that first you've got to get mad. You've got to say, 'I'm a HUMAN BEING, God damn it! My life has VALUE!'

"So I want you to get up now. I want all of you to get up out of your chairs. I want you to get up right now and go to the window. Open it, and stick your head out, and yell, 'I'M AS MAD AS HELL, AND I'M NOT GOING TO TAKE THIS ANYMORE!' I want you to get up right now, sit up, go to your windows, open them and stick your head out and yell - 'I'm as mad as hell and I'm not going to take this anymore!' Things have got to change. But first, you've gotta get mad!... You've got to say, 'I'm as mad as hell, and I'm not going to take this anymore!' Then we'll figure out what to do about the depression and the inflation and the oil crisis. But first get up out of your chairs, open the window, stick your head out, and yell, and say it: "I'M AS MAD AS HELL, AND I'M NOT GOING TO TAKE THIS ANYMORE!" "

322 284 "I'm beginning to become very, very angry"

This isn't something Ace should be saying out loud, unless he's trying to get the liberals at the Washington Post to piss themselves laughing.

First, this isn't the hill to fight for. There are many other things far more egregious than this.

Second, unless the right wing blogging community and our supporters in radio and FOX get together on a "JournoList" style backroom conversation forum and decide what is and isn't important, we've got no chance at any change.

Third, someone like Ace does have the power (or would influence be the better word) to help lead the blogging community and our media in focusing on one or two media figures who truly deserve to be ridiculed out of existence, but until it happens, we're just pissing in the wind.

No, it is from the movie Downfall, where the much loved progressive, democratic post-racial leader of the country is contemplating his final hours in his bunker as all his dubious accomplishments fall apart when the real world intrudes upon his fantasies.

It does not end well for him, or his cronies. Many of them take their own lives, rather than admit their mad schemes were wrong and brought ruin upon the country.

If we pick our battles, with a core group of influential right wing bloggers (of which Ace is an important voice), a few causes can be given enough traction to make it on the national stage.

Without a concerted effort, it's just a bunch of different voices going off on their pet projects.

*********

Without a concerted effort, it's just a bunch of different voices going off on their pet projects.

That goes against the very nature of most Conservatives.

I think the reason we won this last election is because we didn't go national--I know there are people out there trying to minimize the win by saying it was about nothing--but the idea was to work around the national media.

That idea had been brewing with some campaign people for years--looks like they finally went with it.

Some people want to say the campaigns were not giving people something to vote for--well


sometimes in the face of huge government, ObamaCare and looming socialism--

being Anti-Government is way more than you think--and to belittle the voters by saying they didn't vote for anything--is aiding and abetting--Bigger Government.

The win was significant because it happened despite the Liberal media, and despite the extremely bad polling. Polling that all went to falsely bolstering Democrats--when it all leans one way--that isn't random.

412 It was about context. (No, really). Some people heard him saying that primitive superstitions were making ebola worse in Africa. Ace heard him saying that Africans are savages.

And Ace was in one of *those* moods.

Posted by: Bandersnatch at November 11, 2014 04:52 PM (JtwS4)


That sounds right. I was actually on that thread when it happened. EOJ was talking about their insistence on touching and kissing dead bodies and how their folk customs were making the problem worse.


I think he also posted a video about how horrible and primitive was Liberia's response to Ebola. It was an odd juxtaposition of Ace arguing with Baldilocks about African superstition and accusing her and EOJ of racism.



It was strange.

418 Washington Post blogger Jose Del Real

I know this for a fact because I know people who personally benefit from it:

All MSM outlets are DESPERATE to hire minorities -- in particular blacks and Hispanics -- because they are stung by the criticism of their all-white newsrooms.

Problem is, they can't find any semi-qualified minority applicants. Solution:

Hire any and every white person who happens to have an Hispanic-sounding name.

Doesn't matter is they are wealthy Spaniards or the scions of aristocratic Central American land-barons or the descendants of genocidal conquistadors. Hispanic last name = OPPRESSED MINORITY.

And that is how Jose Del Real has a more prestigious and higher-paying job than you.

The grizzled veterans cost too much. They keep a few around for "gravitas." And hire a bunch of idiots that are cheap. They used to keep the grizzled vets around as editors, those much vaunted layers of fact checkers. Until they cost too much. Now they are trying to out-source the news gathering and story production to India and any place else that works for less.

True fact, I checked into working as a news producer when I realized any idiot can do better than these clowns. My frat big brother was a news producer in a small market city in IA for 5 years. He made less than I did waiting tables part-time.

Money. The old grizzled veteran reporters were getting paid two to three times what a cub reporter would get paid, and because most papers have become cutnpaste operations, they don't need as many reporters anymore.

Plus, the newspapers don't want to go after the "powerful" (government) anymore, so they don't want the old guys that made their bones going after those in power.
