Print Larry O'Connor Follow Read Full Bio MSNBC Analyst: Breitbart Sets GOP Agenda "I think what you're seeing is right wing media, that has taken hold among the base. Whether it's conservative talk radio, whether it's Breitbart.com online, all now fused together as the Republican agenda on Capitol Hill. Right now this is not about legislating anymore, this is about John Boehner, who was seen as an outsider to the tea party movement within the party, now bringing together all the conspiracy theories, all of the fear of the Obama Administration, under one umbrella. So now we see the right wing media agenda, which we used to see as outside the purvue of Washington, brought inside." 17 May 2013 Rubio Blames Obama's 'Culture of Intimidation' for IRS Scandal “This is not in isolation. This is a string of events where you see an administration and federal government under this administration that’s willing to use its power to muscle and to hardball people who don’t agree with them,. And now it appears to include The Associated Press. There’s a problem here. One thing is politics as you’ve outlined and another thing is full time, 24/7, 365-day-a-year political effort where everything is about politics. Everything is about destroying your opponent, and everything is about dividing the American people for your electoral gain.” 16 May 2013 Ari Fleischer: White House Claim Of 'One Word Change' To Talking Points Not True "I look at these emails and I say, 'you know what, that's just simply not true,'" Wilson said, regarding the assertion that only one word was changed in the talking points. "On that issue, I think you're entirely right about that. And, I think the emails show that's right," Fleischer responded. 16 May 2013 'Morning Joe' Worries IRS Scandal Will Lead To 'More Extremist Candidates' "Basically what it is going to do, it’s going to force, in the primaries, to galvanize the Tea Party. You’re going to get more extremist candidates. They’ll lose in general election. Come general election time, if somebody voted against background checks for guns, if somebody is still doing the crazy, crazy, crazy social issues, I disagree with you." 16 May 2013 O'Donnell: IRS Did Nothing Wrong "I do not believe what the IRS was reported to have been doing is an outrage. I believe that the IRS agents in this case did nothing wrong. Let me say it again, you won’t hear it anywhere else: the IRS agents did nothing wrong. They were simply trying to enforce the law as the IRS has understood it since 1959." 16 May 2013 NBC News Hosts: White Supremacy Motivates Obama's Critics They can't stand the idea that he's president. And a piece of it is racism. Not that somebody in one racial group doesnt like someone in another racial group, so what? It's the sense that the white race must rule. That's what racism is. And they can't stand the idea that a man who's not white is president. That is real. That sense of racial superiority and rule is in the hearts of some people in this country. 16 May 2013 NBC News Reporter: AP Scandal Angers One Of Obama's 'Most Important Constituencies - The Press' NBC News Senior Investigative Correspondent Lisa Myers appeared on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" to discuss the growing AP scandal involving the Dept. of Justice secretly obtaining phone records of reporters with the Associated Press. 15 May 2013 Axelrod Tries to Shift DOJ/AP Blame to Media "Last summer, I appeared with you, and you challenged me with the same tone, actually, on these leaks and said, ‘When is the president going to send a strong signal to people that leaking classified information won’t be tolerated?’ ‘When is he going to make people accountable for these leaks?’ They’ve apparently interviewed 550 people and went to court and got a subpoena to do what they did. In order to do what you and others said should be done." 15 May 2013 Stewart Nails Obama's Claim He Learned of Scandals from Media One common thread in the multiple scandals hammering the Obama White House is the president's claim that he first heard of the stories from news reports. Many find this claim to be unbelievable and are beginning to echo Sen. Howard Baker's famous inquiry from the Watergate era: "What did the President know, and when did he know it?" 15 May 2013 Politico Absolves IRS: Actions Were Not Partisan Politico reported on the IRS Inspector General report on the systematic targeting of grassroots conservative groups for extra scrutiny. And, ultimately, in its article Politico has done what it does best: Pretend to report on a story but ultimately give Democrats cover by declaring the story a non-story. 15 May 2013 Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Next
