Ashley Banfield Scolds and Warns Obama Spokesman

[DemocracyInaction]

Saw on Politico .... the man was LaBolt. She yelled at him outraged by the new Obama ad attacking Mitt and Bain .. She told him to watch it and not talk about that "crap" on her show because people don't like it. (Apparently they are okay with vicious lying repuke shit) !!! Note: outrage over the ad was carried forward by Andrea Mitchell on MSNBC later in the day. Gee..me thinks Mittens is scared crapless over this ad and "calls " were made to the media whores brigade! ... and they dutifully obeyed...

1. I like the new ads!

I do not like Ashley Banfield.

2. Is there a new rule that you're not allowed to talk about something that some people don't like?

[gratuitous]

3. People don't like it?

Which people? Who? What did they say they didn't like? Why is Romney's record at Bain Capital deem to be "crap"? I think we all remember the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth in 2004, and the credence the popular media lent to one lying malcontent over the other three dozen men who served with John Kerry in Vietnam, as well as the military citations, and the contemporaneous record? THAT was crap, Ms. Banfield.

4. Ashleigh Banfield? Where? She's not on MSNBC, but rather some court show (what used to be courttv)

Unless I missed something...

5. The more they whimper & squeal, the more currency they give the charges.

There is no effective answer for them. They can say whatever they want and the hopeless wingnuts will buy it, but everyone else with 9 or more functioning cortical cells knows it's true.

6. Equal time for the Tamron Hall Smackdown. n/t

16. That makes sense.

The Conservative News Network strikes again.

7. I'm watching, it's atrocious

she's challenging him hard but it's clear she knows nothing about it, other than the Romney campaign's response,and a fact-checking article in the Washington Post. She comes off looking foolish.

10. Wasn't she someone who was about to be kind of famous at one point?

And then something happened to knock her down a few notches?

Wasn't she the war correspondent that was outspoken and then got taken down a few pegs by the establishment for saying something provacative? And also having that Tina Fey look with the glasses and all?

Or am I thinking of someone else?

[Drunken Irishman]

11. No. You're right. Ashley Banfield criticized the media's handling of the Iraq War...

Saying they didn't question enough prior to the war. It was during a speech at Kansas State, I believe, and she was let go from MSNBC shortly after because of it.

So, go figure. Maybe she just has a thing against the authority power.

[Drunken Irishman]

12. It'd be nice if the media put this much effort into criticizing the Swift Boaters in '04...

Oh, but Kerry was a Democrat, so it was okay.

[Rosa Luxemburg]

13. Did Ashley have a brain transplant?

doesn't sound like the same Ashley?

[laundry_queen]

14. You should see Anderson Cooper recently.

The overlords have spoken. Someone has decided they want Romney in office. They aren't even pretending anymore.

[Rosa Luxemburg]

23. CNN - I guess Romney must be paying them?

[butterfly77]

17. I said the same

But she tears into the President every chance she gets and always adds her little commentary as she is supposedly interviewing the Democrats I have been wanting to jump through the television and smack the shit out of her.

If the Republicon isn't winning the argument she has to get the last word in for them.

[Dawson Leery]

18. Agreed on all points!

[Dawson Leery]

15. Here is the link to the video from Fox "News" Jr.

The little peroxide Murdoch bimbo and the rest of her Republican tools cannot stand that a Democrat is fighting back.

19. Who is Ashley Banfield?

[EFerrari]

22. MSNBC talking head that was fired for criticizing Iraq war coverage.

Looks like she learned her lesson.

[Iggo]

20. Oh, Ash.

[Thrill]

21. They all have their orders

Its okay for Mittens to lie every time he opens his mouth. And not be challenged
