“Gaining 7,000,000 jobs begins with letting Nancy Pelosi keep hers.” No. Really. That’s what obtuse Congresswoman Rosa DeLauro (D-Conn) told Greta Van Susteren.
The Confucians say, “A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.”
The Democrats say, “Gaining 7,000,000 jobs begins with letting Nancy Pelosi keep hers.”
No. Really. That’s what obtuse Congresswoman Rosa DeLauro (D-Conn) told Greta Van Susteren in this Fox News interview.
It’s almost zenlike, isn’t it?

After getting slapped around a few days ago, Gloria Allred decided – incorrectly, as it turned out – that it would be a good idea to go back on Greta Van Susteren’s Fox News show.
Far as we can tell, the phrase “bitch slap” was created with Gloria Allred in mind. It’s not easy to degrade the legal and media professions any further, but she is able to accomplish both tasks singlehandedly.
After getting slapped around a few days ago, Allred decided – incorrectly, as it turned out – that it would be a good idea to go back on Greta Van Susteren’s Fox News show.
There are a lot of great moments in this clip, but our favorite is Greta saying, “I think she would have been a lot smarter to talk to a lawyer who worried about whether she would be deported than some sort of public statement on someone running for office … You know what, Gloria? The first thing for a lawyer to do is to protect the client, not throw the client out to the wolves. If you can’t protect the client you shouldn’t do the job….”
Anyone think Gloria will stagger back into the studio for round three?

Is Gloria Allred a camera whore? Most assuredly. Is Gloria Allred a leftist hack who’s trying to destroy Meg Whitman’s campaign with some trumped up charges? Most definitely. Is Gloria Allred one of the most annoying people in America. Yes.
It doesn’t take a Magic 8-Ball to answer the following questions:
Is Gloria Allred a camera whore? Most assuredly. Is Gloria Allred a leftist hack who’s trying to destroy Meg Whitman’s campaign with some trumped up charges? Most definitely. Is Gloria Allred one of the most annoying people in America. Yes. And finally, did Greta Van Susteren make a fool of Gloria Allred on Friday night? Friggin’ A, Ray.
The interview just didn’t go the way Allred expected. Watch the way her smile slowly disappears as the interview progresses. But the highlight is when Greta looks her in the face and says, “Gloria, this is almost delusional.”
Why so understated, Greta?
Beck’s ratings are higher than ever. Remarkably, his show doesn’t run during primetime, yet his audience is larger than every prime time on every cable news network except Fox News’ O’Reilly-Hannity tandem. How long until Fox moves him into a more prominent time slot? And who will go to make room for him?
If President Obama’s henchmen are organizing a boycott of Glenn Beck, the ratings show that no one’s paying attention.

MSNBC and CNN have all but ceded primetime to Fox News, which racks up more total viewers and more younger viewers than the two runner up cable news networks combined.
You probably won’t find the following list taped on the refrigerator in the employee lounge at either MSNBC or CNN. It shows that Fox News has all ten of the most watched programs on cable news:

| CNN | Blitzer | 1,246,000 |
