Full. Blown Panic.
As the polls showing a Hillary Clinton lead narrow, democrats are now in full blown panic mode. Barack Obama is book ending his Presidency with another apology tour in Laos in which he painted Americans as “lazy” and “racist.” As Clinton continues to dissemble about her emails FBI Director James Comey informed the country that more Clinton documents are on the way. The left went postal about Matt Lauer’s daring to ask Clinton pointed questions about her emails.
It was a high-stakes political moment, far from the chummier confines of the “Today” show and, for Matt Lauer, NBC’s stalwart of the morning, a chance to prove his broadcasting mettle on the presidential stage.
The consensus afterward was not kind.
Charged with overseeing a live prime-time forum with Donald J. Trumpand Hillary Clinton — widely seen as a dry run of sorts for the coming presidential debates — Mr. Lauer found himself besieged on Wednesday evening by critics of all political stripes, who accused the anchor of unfairness, sloppiness and even sexism in his handling of the event.
And then the obvious bias spills out:
Mr. Trump stormed onstage in his familiar motor-mouth style
That’s editorializing, not reporting. But then, it’s the NY Slimes.
For more left wing outrage, you can visit here.
Matt Lauer has been labeled a ‘morning show lightweight’ by furious political pundits after he failed to grill Donald Trump on his claim he never supported the Iraq War during a Commander in Chief Forum on Wednesday night – but relentlessly questioned Hillary over her private email scandal.
Never mind that she’s lied through her teeth with her ever changing stories. Now let’s pile on.
Confidence in Donald Trump is growing on the Hill:
“Trump is getting better,” Graham told reporters Tuesday pointing to the recent polling. “You can see a more disciplined message. If he can hold it together for another 8 weeks.”
Graham, who ran against Trump in the primary and doubted that the New York billionaire could beat Clinton, appeared impressed that Trump could withstand the amount of political attacks he had taken so far.
“He’s had massive political body blows that would knock anybody else out. If he can cross the lines in the eyes of the public and be ready for the job, then I think you’re gonna have one hell of a race,” Graham added.
Uh oh.
Hollywood is peeing in its collective pants:
Hollywood Democrats are getting nervous about recent polls that show the race between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump tightening.
“I’m freaked out,” David Schneiderman, co-owner and founder of Seismic Productions and prominent Clinton supporter, told TheWrap. “I now post stuff on Facebook every day bugging all my friends to do something. No one wants to wake up to Donald Trump on November 8.”
A Tuesday CNN/ORC poll showing Trump leading Clinton in a head-to-head match for the first time in six weeks caught some of Clinton’s staunchest industry supporters and donors by surprise. It is one of the “big five” polls widely considered the most reliable — though some journalists questioned its methodology.
A number of celebrities are threatening to leave the country if Trump wins the election- perhaps blissfully ignorant of the fact that that is likely to be a incentive to vote for Trump.
Clinton henchman James Carville, who famously browbeat sexual assault victims, is already ranting about the election.
Bubba is raging about Trump.
Former President Bill Clinton ridiculed Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump for his slogan “Make America Great Again” suggesting that it was a false promise to American voters and racially motivated.
Senility must be setting in, because back in 2008 Bubba said Hillary would make America great again.
I saved the best for last. I thought I was somehow on The Onion website when I caught this article:
WASHINGTON — Nancy Pelosi, the House minority leader, sent a letter on Tuesday to Speaker Paul D. Ryan urging him to bar Republicans from using hacked documents in the campaign, arguing that “defending our democracy is more important than any advantage or disadvantage in this election.”
Did she really write that? apparently so.
Ms. Pelosi, calling the hack into Democratic servers, apparently by Russians, “an unprecedented assault on the sanctity of our democratic process,” said Mr. Ryan should not condone either party using materials originating from the cybercrime.
“Democrats and Republicans must present a united front in the face of Russia’s attempts to tamper with the will of the American people,” Ms. Pelosi wrote.
No sane person would expect Pelosi to honor a similar request were the shoe on the other foot. Pelosi knows something is coming in the air tonight. It’s panic in Clinton Park.
Oh Lord.

Trey Gowdy GRILLS James Comey On Hillary Clinton Emails 7/7/16
She has no credibility when it comes to classified information…..
Trey Gowdy exposed her congressional testimony contridictions with testimony from FBI director Comey
Jonathon Chait had a revelation because of last night.
Remember how often the ”rabble” Trump supporters write about the GOPe?
Chait writes:

http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2016/09/lauers-pathetic-interview-made-me-think-trump-can-win.html
So, Chait digests whole the MSMe while the ”rabble” look at all of it with very jaded eyes…..if they look at it at all.
See, it’s true: If all you do is read the NYTimes, WaPo and other such elite news outlets, you’d never even know Hillary had an email problem at all! And she’d be winning by a landslide!
I watched the entire Clinton interview.
Now I am really scared.
She is completely clueless (or her handlers are clueless).
Classification is not a mystery. Various items of information are determined to put our nation at risk, if those items fall into the hands of our enemies. Depending on the seriousness of the risk, they are assigned different classification levels. This has NOTHING to do with the header or the cover sheet. It is the information itself which is classified. To hold classified information in an insecure way is ESPIONAGE. There is no need to prove intent; this is a prima facie felony.
Take the information (either in print or in electronic form) from a secure facility and you have committed the crime. No evidence is needed that the information fell into someone else’s hands.
Had a fellow 2nd Lt (Signal Corps) in 1963 in my unit. First day in service, he was assigned custodian of the Signals Vault. One TS document came up missing, when he finally had the opportunity to do the inventory. He stayed a 2nd Lt for 3 years.
Anybody else would be in jail and permanently barred from public service for what Clinton did.
But not Clinton. She has lots of FBI files on lots of people.
Some in Government are primary classification authorities: these individuals can declare an item classified. Their permission is needed to release the classification hold.
As Sec State, Hillary lacked the ability to declassify information which was previously classified by others, such as drone strike information. Yet she put it on her private insecure server anyway. Again, that is ESPIONAGE.
And then she was asked about the use of the military. OMG. She seemed to have no notion whatever of operational security: one does NOT want one’s opponent to know what one is planning, lest they counter-plan. That is about as new as Sun Tzu. To say “no boots” is to tell in advance what her plans are. A worse disaster, if possible, than Obama’s unilateral surrender in in Iraq.
She is not just wrong. She is SCARY wrong.
Or her handlers are scary wrong.
BTW, did you see the earbud? She is a humaniform robot.
I hope Trump hires some techies to jam the transmission to that earbud. That ought to bring on some major coughing.
The Left is desperate, as evidenced by their very old, and very white cloud of candidates back in the primaries. That Clinton is the best they can do shows that they are a party on the brink of collapse.
Only an idiot would vote for Hillary. She’s obviously not qualified on just about every level.
At least Trump has a proven track record of helping minorities in real ways, rather than exploiting their hope and taking every thing from them…
Going to fun to watch the left squirm, though…it’s Trumps election to lose…and he won’t.
Yes! Let’s make a list! I’ll begin:
1.
Uh…can I get some help with this?
The status quo power structure in both major parties is fighting for Hillary. Media is on board.
Globalism vs Nationalism.
A time for choosing.
@Greg:
How about …..
1. Over two decades ago, 50 percent of the people in his business inner circle were women.
Or, maybe….
1. Donated $25,000 to a mostly black women’s basketball league after the founder was killed in the 9/11 attack. http://www.slamjamwbc.org/
Perhaps…..
1. Trump’s Mar-a-Lago’s open door policy for people of all races in the 1990s.
Or, maybe…..
1. Donald Trump worked with the Rainbow-PUSH coalition to bring blacks and minorities into corporate America. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=3d2_1451242991#XIfETKQXKv1Qgfwl.99
Who could forget….
1. Trump helped Jennifer Hudson after her family members was killed
http://www.ijreview.com/2015/11/461306-these-5-acts-of-kindness-reveal-theres-more-to-donald-trump-than-just-his-celebrity-persona/
Or…..
1. Trump gave $10,000 to a black bus driver who gained worldwide fame after rescuing a “suicidal” woman from a freeway bridge. http://news.sky.com/story/1162957/donald-trump-gives-hero-bus-driver-10000
You are willfully ignorant, Greg.
@Greg: Not even worth bothering with, Greg. You can do your own research. The vast majority of Americans are with me on this one.
Besides, you’d just lie or ignore any facts that go against your propaganda.
Hillary’s toast. Get over it.
@Nanny G: My hope is that Greg realizes just how much the Dems have done to destroy and sabotage the black community…unless he already knows, and is all for it…
You racist, Greg?
That’s not cool, man.
I thought perhaps #1 on the list might be protecting minority casino employees from bigoted patrons. You know, by moving them out of sight when such patrons complained.
What I genuinely appreciate is Donald’s enthusiastic outreach to stupid people. Of course, it’s not yet clear whether or not they’re actually a minority.
@Nanny G: You are hopelessly in the TANK FOR TRUMP.
Thought— Bill O’Reilly is clearly the best commentator on T.V. Hacks like Hannity and Maddow could learn much from him.
Donald Trump, today, on RT News, interviewed by Larry King.
And Ann Coulter, today, on RT News, expounding on the wonderfulness of Donald Trump.
RT, of course, being Vladimir Putin’s state-funded global propaganda outlet, Russian Television. Which proves, beyond any shadow of a doubt, that no degree of obvious is sufficiently obvious to make those who do not wish to see the obvious ever see the obvious.
Move over, FOX News. Your days are numbered.
( Должен сделать план убить лося и Белку. )
@Richard Wheeler: I thought using the old songs was my gig???
@kitt:It is— Phil Collins circa 86—what ya got??
What do you think of this Trump/Putin bromance?? I hope Trump doesn’t start posing with his shirt off..
@Richard Wheeler: Trump flauntin’ his man boobs would make me hurl, I could only see him on a clydesdale for a pose.
The Bromance is over-rated and pushed by propaganda, to not piss off another world power not a bad policy with the shape the military is in after 8 years of slow methodical destruction.
The Dems warning Russia against mucking with the election (ha) I guess they really hate competition.
check this funny out http://www.newyorker.com/humor/borowitz-report/g20-ends-abruptly-as-obama-calls-putin-a-jackass

http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2016-09-04/after-snubbing-obama-china-gives-putin-red-carpet-treatmen
He could have just sung to the commies…
@kitt: Thought—“I know more than the Generals” Trump had a “secret plan” to defeat ISIS. Now he says he’s gonna give said Generals 30 days to come up with a plan, WTF
Love the song
@Richard Wheeler:
Sounds pretty wise, no?
@Richard Wheeler: Many of his 11 months of off script will come back to bite him but if he does have a plan at least he isn’t advertising on MSLSD or emailing it to the enemy.
Gotta luv Jimmy Buffet
@DrJohn: HUH? If he knows more than the Generals why is he asking them for a plan?
Kitt Long live Jimmy Buffett and his Parrot Heads
@Nanny G: Greg would have to be intelligent enough to find the sources you have. Obviously, he didn’t find them. He also failed to understand that his party prides themselves on helping minorities yet, minorities continue to lose ground in almost all phases of the economy except the unemployment ranks.
@Richard Wheeler: Actually Rich, a good leader has his ideas, but he would encourage his staff to develop a plan or strategy. Then the good leader leader would take the best of both ideas. I realize you can not understand leadership principles after supporting democrats for most of your life. hence the WTF comment you made..
Remember, back in 2008, Hillary and Bill were racist haters, according to the Obama disciples. Now, of course, the entire left pivots and Hillary is the only person that is NOT racist.
Just like in 2008, Hillary was a shoe-in. Now, as then, it begins to slip away. Far to early to pop the cork, but I have a feeling more of Hillary’s failures and corruption is yet to be revealed.
The media is trying to promote and protect Hillary, but she is her own worst enemy. Lauer made an attempt at fair and balanced and is finding out, as women and minorities do, what happens to someone when they stray off the liberal plantation. No doubt subsequent debate moderators will take heed and play their part in the liberal farce of journalism properly.
Though this is no done deal by any means, I am LOVING the cold panic exhibited my liberals now. No doubt, this will only make them nastier.
@Greg: Right after you list any positive accomplishment of hilldabeast!!
@Richard Wheeler: Rich, that is a good plan!! Who knows better than those in military leadership. Sadly Obola failed to listen to military leadership unless he told them what to say. The others he got rid off!! Reagan was our best President in my 67 years of life and he achieved that by listening and hiring the right people for the job!! It’s called being a head coach which he was!! Carrying 49-50 states is proof positive that he was correct!!
@Greg:
Since the “stupid” people were effectively exploited in 2008 and 2012 for Obama, I’m sure a liberal would know.
And it’s not cool to call non-whites “stupid”, Greg. That’s racist.
Keep it up and I might have to report you for hate speech.
@Greg: Actually, it’s obvious that the state-run liberal US media is much like the Russian media. FOX helps the left far more than the right; FOX merely obscures the truth for those already indoctrinated by liberalism. Getting a leftist is admit that the media/cultural complex is unilaterally left-leaning is like getting a holocaust denier to fess up. Hate-mongers, all around.
From NYT to SNL, the info is both corrupt and erroneous, meant to influence people into believing in racist doctrines, like you do.
@Richard Wheeler:
Pretty sure that anything Trump says, no matter how reasonable or wise, would get a “WTF” out of you…because you’re liberal/democrat, and you simply want the Dems to win.
What’s the contribution to the discussion, if you’re merely pulling for your sports team, Clinton?
Are you that stupid that you don’t understand what executive leadership does, what the President does? Didn’t Obama hire a bunch of “Czars” to do his job for him, right away? Did you have an issue with that?
All rhetorical questions. You’re just parroting lib talking points, and you only embolden people here at FA to vote Trump. The Trump campaign needs to send you a thank you.
@Nathan Blue, #25:
Minorities, unfortunately, just aren’t as well informed as white folks. Only a bit over 1 percent of the FOX News audience is black, for example, and hardly any watch Vladimir Putin’s RT state-funded channel. White folks avail themselves of these wonderful educational opportunities, and consequently know what’s really going on in the world. They understand, for example, that Donald has a plan to Win and Win Big Against ISIS, but can’t reveal the details until after he’s figured them out, or had somebody figure them out for him.
Donald Trump’s praise of Vladimir Putin gets thumbs-up from Navy SEAL congressman
Does this guy even have a clue about the current state of the Russian economy? Russia’s per capita income, measured in U.S. dollars, has declined from $9,054 in 2015 to an estimated $7,742 in 2016. For the average Russian the economy is a genuine disaster—not a made-up disaster like republicans claim we have here.
Shall we talk about human rights? Try this article: Vladimir Putin’s Russia is no longer just an authoritarian state; it is a dictatorship. Of course, you can always get your news from Putin’s RT network. Trump has led people down the garden path and straight out the back gate—destination unknown.
@Greg: Greg why was it okie dokie to be his best bud for the democrats?? But now that Vladd has no use for the Prez and is showing his colors, suddenly they are the evil empire again.
Your amnesia is amazing!!
Yes Putin has wonderful amazing popularity numbers as anyone reporting otherwise has a mysterious fall out a window.
Romney thinks we are still having a cold war har har har, how is that joke aging? is it funny now?
The Russians hacking the DNC, that has not been proven, it is as true as an internet video caused Bengahzi.
The excessive printing of dollars has a global economic effect. Destabilizing the middle east has a global peace effect.
The pen and phone are a dictatorship, using agencies as weapons or shields is a dictatorship.
If Trump backs us away from the bananna republic we have become…GREAT.
The United States of America is no banana republic. America doesn’t need to be made great again. It already is. I grow weary of hearing my nation constantly demeaned by a clueless snake oil salesman who ought to be guest hosting a Reality TV program—preferably not Russian—or pitching a miracle waterproofing product or non-stick frying pan on late-night cable. People should begin listening very closely to what this guy is saying and start asking themselves exactly what it means.
I just watched Hillary Clinton’s televised comments immediately following today’s security conference. I understood very clearly what she was saying about ISIS and North Korea. I fully understand her intentions and the careful reasoning behind them. Her demeanor and grasp of the situation are that of a president.
@Greg:
Now you partially understand why people that love this country are disgusted with a half-assed community organizer turning the country into a banana republic, using government agencies to attack political opposition and a former Secretary of State, Presidential candidate and corrupt liar making a mockery of the Constitution and rule of law.
America IS great… the greatest nation on earth. Now, thanks to 8 years of liberal degradation, it needs to be restored before it is unrestorable; it absolutely has to be protected from the likes of Obama, an ideologue that wants to reduce the nation to a servant of others and Hillary, who would pillage what she can to enrich herself.
@Greg: Your ignorance is even worse than I thought!! You voted for Obola and Slick and you talk crap about Trump as he tells America the truth rather than the BS that these two did. Reality escapes what brain you may have had!! It’s neither hate nor racism to put America and Americans first!!
Do you really think so? Compare Clinton’s comments with Donald Trump’s North Korea solution, as revealed last night during a campaign event in Virginia Beach, Virginia, and then tell me again who’s clueless. Mr. Trump:
Yeah. China can fix it. They also make these really excellent and totally indestructible no-stick frying pans. Alternately, we could build a West Coast Wall too high for an ICBM to fly over, and make the North Koreans pay for it. (Note to Donald Trump: North Korea’s Taepodong-3 ballistic missile has an estimated range up to 13,000 kilometers. Please have somebody show you what that means on a globe of the Earth.)
@Greg: North Korea?? let me tell you Ron R would have blasted any rockets off the pad, they are breaking a treaty. China is feeding the population of Korea, and they could very well starve that nation into behaving itself. Notice the only one fat in that country is Kim?
Love the frypan sentence it made me laugh.
Why isn’t hardening the grid on the Dem platform? You dems really are clueless about what would happen if Iran or N.Korea exploded a nuke in the upper atmosphere above the mid-west, or if there was a Carrington event, that is not a matter of if, its when. No one but the Amish know how to live likes its 1859.
@Greg:
Like her “grasp of the situation” when she told Lauer no Americans died in Libya?
As usual, others are criticized when they can’t readily develop a solution for the massive messes liberals leave.
@Greg: Here’s a solution you are sure to agree with: let’s pay them a ransom to not attack us! Obama has revived the practice of paying tribute to pirates.
@kitt, #35:
I’m not sure China can do all that much, given North Korea is sitting directly on their border with nukes, a standing army of over a million active soldiers, and another 7 million in reserve. North Korea is already hostile toward China. They could overrun their neighbor to the north with a wave of starving refugees, if nothing else. It would be an invasion like something out of a zombie apocalypse movie.
North Korea needs an internal uprising, but the the populace is so oppressed and brainwashed it’s hard to see that happening.
@Nathan Blue: You wanna buy into this egomaniacs B.S.have at it. You.ve got plenty of lemmings for company.
I’ve been watching him come and go for 40 years–I’ll pass once again. If you think I’m pulling for Clinton you haven’t actually read my posts. I’d never vote for either of them
.
@Greg:
Yet yesterday on CBS This Morning Tim Kaine was blathering on about how much China was going to to help contain NK!
Charlie Rose and the two dimwit sidekicks gushed over how smart that was.
@Greg:
Damn, Greg, the US absolutely is a banana republic . This administration is utterly corrupt. D’s would already have impeached a Republican for doing what this a**hole has done. 33 billion to Iran without Congressional approval?
AYFKM?
@Richard Wheeler: You don’t seem to have a problem with egomaniacs when they are liberals. Obama is a supreme egomaniac, and his ego is driven solely by his ego. He believes his magical charisma will solve all problems, foreign and domestic, with sadly pitiful results. Remember the “Seal of the President-Elect of the United States”? How egotistical was THAT?
Trump’s ego is driven my his substantial and substantive accomplishments. Obama’s… not so much.
@DrJohn: Isn’t it strange that the asshole could find 33 Billion laying around to illegally transfer to a terrorist funding crazyland but not a dime to protect our population from Zika, unless we fund abortionists of course. The Dems have put their love of murdering innocents above everything.
@Richard Wheeler: A vote for anyone but Trump puts hilldabeast a known treasonous liar in the Whitehouse!! To think NOT voting is the nobel thing to do is misguided!! Tump tells America the truth and puts America and Americans first!! That’s not being egomaniacal, a hater, or racist!!
@DrJohn, #41:
Republicans have had majority control of both the House and the Senate for nearly 2 years now. In fact, the current 114th Congress began with the largest controlling Republican majority since the 71st Congress of 1929–1931. If there were real evidence supporting any impeachable offence on the part of Barack Obama, they would have begun proceedings long before now.
The fact is that there have been NO impeachable offences. Congress is presently in the hands of a party that have spent their time engaging in cheap political theater instead of doing their actual job of legislating. They haven’t addressed one serious problem facing the nation with genuinely meaningful legislative action, despite the fact that they have the majorities necessary to do so. Instead, they’ve defamed our nation’s president, monkey-wrenched his every effort when at all possible, and abused their investigative powers in repeated attempts to preemptively destroy the reputation of his likely successor.
Now they’re attempting to see elected a “Republican” candidate who is so obviously unqualified for the job and so devoid of their own avowed conservative core principles that they’re backing him with clothespins on their noses. They’re backing a candidate that most of them have no use for or confidence in. There’s no sincerity in their backing him. What they’re doing is another political maneuver, and one that could have extremely dangerous unforeseen consequences. They can’t control this guy. I honestly don’t know how people like Paul Ryan are able to stand it.
Hillary Clinton might not have been my first choice. That said, when she’s running against Donald Trump, for myself she becomes the only choice.
@Greg: Unfortunately the race card wasn’t quite maxed out, the republicans did not want his impeachment on their record. He has broken his oath to defend and protect the constitution and uphold the laws many many times. the last ransom paid is enough. Releasing the prisoners from Cuba without the proper notification was enough, was the trade for the deserter approved? Would he sign any meaningful legislation? How qualified is a person that has been in the system for over 30years and unable to determine a classified document or proper behavior with government materials, that lying about an attack on a consulate to both the public and families of the dead ethical? She even had to have the primaries fixed cause she is such a wreck.
Her pal Assange has more, what would it take for you to go third party Greg?
Well, my opinion of Putin went up after his response to President Obama’s oh, so Presidential stompy-foot hissy fit:
“I should be afraid of this skinny man? I wrestle bears.”
Gotta love it.
@kitt, #46:
I don’t consider a third-party vote to be an option when the result could be to put a fraud like Donald Trump in the White House. I have no serious problem voting for Hillary Clinton. She just wasn’t my first choice. I don’t believe she is any less ethical than most people who have been selected for the presidency. I have very serious questions along those lines concerning Donald Trump. I think his entire candidacy has been a deception. He’s been truthful about nothing. Changing your position statements constantly depending on which way the wind is blowing or what audience you’re standing in front of at the moment is not an indication of truthfulness.
Trump is an opportunist in every sense of the word. He works each and every angle the instant it appears to gain advantage. His entire focus is on winning. For Trump, winning is more important than the thing that is won. He has likely given very little thought to the complexities and responsibilities of the office he seeks. It’s all about getting it as an ultimate trophy.
@Greg:
The fact is that there have been NO impeachable offences.
The list is a bakers dozen. Take out you pocket US Constitution and read through it. You should be able to find at least one. If unable to do so, ask your minder to assist you.
Kitt has it exactly right:
Admittedly, the current Congress lacks the spine necessary to be an opposition party. I am no fan of the current Republican leadership and for that the People are looking for a leader albeit not the democrat nominee, she is no leader. She never has been, never demonstrated to be and if elected will only further the downfall of this country continued by the current resident of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.
It would appear you are “all in for hillary”. Interesting that you say she was not your first choice. That begs the question, who was your first choice, Bernie?
@Greg:
Has there ever been a candidate that, prior to being the candidate, lied, on video, to Congress? Has any candidate ever been investigated by the FBI AND found to be grossly negligent? Has any other candidate taken millions of dollars from foreign donors? Has any other candidate ever lied to grieving loved ones about her responsibility for getting their loved ones killed? You think EVERYONE does this?
Your description of Trump does not describe him so much as it precisely describes Hillary… it is difficult to imagine a person so blind as yourself.
@July 4th American:
Probably making Obama Emperor for Life.
