Highlights in M$M hilarity: Last night's "secret" meeting between Obama and Clinton.

Of course, I'd been watching "Countdown" but didn't change when Abrams came on yet.

With utter sincerity and appreciation of the importance of the event, Abrams trumpeted the "breaking" news: a "secret" meeting between the two (it ain't secret if you KNOW ABOUT IT, morons).

Cut to video and Andrea Mitchell voiceover: A home several hundred feet from the street, lights on, otherwise shuttered, and Mitchell's breathless PURE SPECULATION.

That being said--appreciation for both parties for managing to neutralize the m$m regarding what was going on. The m$m wanted shouting, shots, and maybe even blood; instead they got a darkened street, warm light from distant windows--and a shining example of their own sad desperation.

need be. It was hysterical and they couldn't find out what was going on. They had Hillary's house covered. MSNBC are getting to be a bunch of feaks. You would have thought that a mass murder was loose and holed up in the house. I went to sleep laughing

7. I've never liked Mitchell, but she has gone really low in the past couple of weeks
She takes every little tabloid rumor and reports it. I think even nuts like Drudge do a better job at filtering bullshit.

9. Actually the funniest part was watching the cameras outside the Clinton home
when the meeting was at DiFis. M$M always gets it wrong...secret meeting - it was only a secret to M$M.

10. Oh, shit--I didn't even realize that! Even more hysterical--oh, wow.
Too damn funny; all that time, they were stalking a completely empty house. :rofl:
