Ah hah - Jared Bernstein doesn't fall for Andrea Mitchell's bullcaca.

[jillan]

Jared was on to discuss Obama's plan to close down tax loopholes, and to respond to the RW talking points about how Obama is raising taxes .....

She let Jared speak for a couple of minutes then she started asking him about some ad Las Vegas put out in the Times...VP if you said it in Vegas, it would have stayed in Vegas....

Jared's response? Andrea, you asked me to come here to discuss Obama's plan, and continued to discuss exactly that.

At the end of the segment, Andrea said thank you to Jared and to forgive her sense of humor.


:rofl:

1. Hope we see more of this sort of thing

The Dems are in charge, yet the media treats them so differently than Bush & Co.

[Jennicut]

2. The media treats Dems like they are still in the minority party

Its infuriating.

[jillan]

3. It is very infuriating - I was so proud of Jared for not taking the bait.

He was on Ed's show too, but of course Big Ed didn't even bring it up :loveya:

[Debi]

4. So there ARE some adults in the room

YAY :bounce:

[PatSeg]

5. The republicans got away with EVERYTHING

and Dems get accused of things they don't even do! Definitely different standards.
