IRONY: Pompous Presumptuous Pundits Point their Pretentious fingers and make Pronouncements

[FrenchieCat]

So it appears that the Pundits who like to slash and dice have spoken. They have, all by their lonesome, determined that Barack Obama is too uppity, doesn't know his place, and acts like a prom king. He is simply too full of himself, they announce. The man is already acting like a President, they write indignantly.

These are the folks that decide for viewers what parts of any candidate's appearance they will show us, based on what they have determined might be considered news.

These are the same pundits who clearly believe themselves to be superior experts on issues such as War, Economics, politics, energy and whatever else there is to discuss, and feel certain that they know what most American thinks before Americans even know it. Hell, they usually just talk to each other while talking over the candidates. They talk for hours on in, never questioning just how wise or unwise they themselves are about anything.

Hell, they even tell us on a daily basis that they are "the best Political Team on Television", are "Fair and Balanced", etc..., etc....

Have you ever really wondered how the likes of Wolf Blitzer, Rick Sanchez, Anderson Cooper, Candy Crowley, Tom Brokaw, Joe Scarborough, Andrea Mitchell, or any of the rest of them could even believe that the sun might set without their dose of daily wisdom? Which is why it is really rather unbelievable that these same folks would pronounce Barack Obama has being arrogant.

I am absolutely NOT stunned at their audacity, but I must say, this is truly more than just a little bit ironic. In addition, it is more than even I can take. :puke:

1. Where have you been? I felt a vacuum. nt.

[FrenchieCat]

4. I was in the South of France for 3 weeks,

and in Boston for a week. I took a vacation and then celebrated my daughter's Marriage. I had a blast. Being away from too much politics did me a world of good. :)

[babylonsister]

21. Brat.

I'm SOOO jealous! Sounds loverly. Congrats to your daughter, son-in-law, and all the parents!

We missed you...

[FrenchieCat]

23. So sweet.....you are!

:blush:

I had a really great time! :)

[CitizenLeft]

36. ugh! jealous as hell! glad to have you back!

Did you hear Rachel Maddow on this tonight on that stupid Race to the White House? She was fabulous - I thought Buchanan was going to drop a cow, he sputtered so much. You say "racist" around him and he has a conniption fit.

[FrenchieCat]

41. Yes. She was that one bright spot till KO came on.

I Love her dearly!

[Kahuna]

51. I missed you too. I wondered..

Where's my FrenchieCat? :cry:

Glad you're back.

[FrenchieCat]

56. Hi Kahuna!

I missed you as well! :hi:

[NYC_SKP]

2. Precisely!

Welcome back FrenchieCat
Nice to see ya!

:hi:

[FrenchieCat]

5. Nice to be back. I had a lovely time.

I am now mellow. :rofl:

[ErinBerin84]

3. where have you been? I've missed your posts.

K & R (though I was slightly impressed that Andrea Mitchell dispelled the McCain troop ad on Obama, but she generally falls right in line).


I remember reading reading a quote from Jason Linkins of the Huffington Post after bitter-gate something like "So now, because Obama just can't come up with a better thesis for What's The Matter With Kansas, the Sunday talk shows will NOT be all about how utterly, well, RIDICULOUS those Petraeus hearings were, and we are instead subjected to a discussion on Elitism from Beltway people who are so out of touch that they are practically toffee encrusted."

[FrenchieCat]

8. That one percent of good she may have done in that one instance

doesn't even begin to account for the damage she does on a daily basis.

[ErinBerin84]

13. yup, and she was extra, extra bad the week before

going on about Obama "fake interviews" overseas and how she couldn't judge "military coverage", that its completely negated.

[grantcart]

17. no but some DUer captured it perfectly

"Oh today Bad Andrea must be tired, she let Good Andrea out for a few minutes"

[Egnever]

6. Welcome back!

How was the trip?

Did you miss the fray here?

[FrenchieCat]

22. My trip was excellent.......and restful (for the most part)

I missed Barack in France by a hair. I was mainly in Nice, and barely watched any television while there. The withdrawal from DU was harsh initially, but I got used to it.

I left for Boston before Barack arrived in Paris.

My lovely daughter and my son-in-law had a glorious 3 day wedding party out in Pembroke, MA.

I just got home late last night. We were supposed to get back on Monday,
but our flight was cancelled.

[babylonsister]

7. All hail Frenchie is back, but I've got a gripe. As bad as

Andrea Mitchell was, she also set the lie to the lie, i.e., Obama in Germany.

I heard her two days prior, and she was the prissy, put-out reporter because she wasn't 'involved', but she did get over it.

Anyway, nice to see you!

[FrenchieCat]

10. Hey....Nice to see you too!

[cliffordu]

9. WELCOME HOME, FRENCHIECAT!!!!!

Missed you madly...

:hi:

[FrenchieCat]

12. Hi!

Missed you too. :hi:

[grantcart]

11. You forgot the leader of the pack

Pretender to Princeton Pomposity but really just a Shell of Affectation

finds a single word in a 3 month old speech that Obama already changed

and then asks "rookie mistake Senator?"

You only went to Princeton asshole you didn't actually get anything out of the experience.

Estimated earnings $ 8,000,000

[FrenchieCat]

15. You don't have a pic of him wearing his pompous eyewear?

[grantcart]

19. of course but its not a close up

Note how he angles back so that he can peer down at his subject in a condescending manner.


His Wikipedia article states that in his spare time he likes to watch Brit Hume.

[FrenchieCat]

24. He so impresses himself.

And don't forget about his little sidekick, the Arrogant little fool--

[Cha]

35. That looks like the rethug

fred thompson he's schoomzing in a condescending kinda way.

[FrenchieCat]

37. Yes....Notice for Fred, he smiles.....

For Obama, he only has a scowl!

[Cha]

38. Oh yeah, and I admire Obama so much for

doing what he has to do in spite of the fascists' receptions he gets from the mainstream media.

[davidpdx]

43. Well and the sad thing is I acutally use to like Gibson

When he was on GMA. I grew up watching that every morning at home (all the way back when Joan Lunden and David Hartman). It's pretty disgusting what is going on right now.

[Kahuna]

52. DING DING DING DING DING!!! He wins hands down! nt

[SwampG8r]

14. welcome back frenchie

[FrenchieCat]

16. Thanks!

I appreciate your greeting! :pals:

[thewiseguy]

18. She is back!

:evilgrin:

Too bad the forum is much more peaceful now.

[FrenchieCat]

25. Well, it's time to stir up big time shit with those Rethuglicans......

and their pretentious bought and paid for media operatives.

[grantcart]

20. I suggest that you check their wikipedia article and edit in their estimated

salaries as I have done for Gibson

[FrenchieCat]

26. I know that they make more than me and Barack put together......

that's all I need to know. They are a sad, sad lot.

Their collective arrogance could fuel the world for 100 years; hot air and all.

[FrenchieCat]

27. And let us not forget this fella,

This agonizing piece of work

[NanceGreggs]

28. Welcome home, FrenchieCat!

You have been missed!

[FrenchieCat]

30. I've missed you!

I have to catch up on all of your rants! :)

[eridani]

47. Psst! No DUzys until September!

JeffR is taking a vacation too. At least we have you back.

[BrklynLiberal]

29. One of the best subject lines, EVER!!!!!!

[FrenchieCat]

32. You like all them "Ps" hey?

In reference to those Preposterous Pieces of Pompous Pundit Poops! :)

[BrklynLiberal]

34. Yepppppp I do!

:thumbsup:

[Cha]

39. Agree! 'Cause the Pompous Presumptious Pretentious Pundits are the reason for

the State of our Union.

[FrenchieCat]

40. You've got that right.....my dear zidzi......

This country would make a whole lot more sense if they didn't exist at all.

[Cha]

31. Glad you're back Frenchie and we got you!

I was just asking babylonsister earlier today if she knew where you were:)

South France did you good..this is excellent work! Rec'd for our Greatest.

[FrenchieCat]

33. I was watching television today fuming!

But I had a lot of work waiting for me, so I couldn't blog my outrage till now. :(

[pansypoo53219]

42. they ain't the cool kids anymore.

obama is the guy everybody likes.

[FrenchieCat]

46. Yes....They are mad at the Internets!

They can prop up a dumbass President like George Bush for 8 long years, but oh, No......Obama appears simply too presidential; OMG! :eyes:

[Blue_Roses]

44. sounds like you had an awesome trip!

glad to see you back safe and sound:hi:

[FrenchieCat]

45. I'm glad to be back.

Although I'm going to attempt at not becoming addicted once again. I can't afford to fall off the wagon (my husband said). :)

[PerpetuallyDazed]

48. NOT COOPER ANDERSON!

NooooooOOOOOoooooooOooooooo.......... :wow:

Is he really on a tirade against Obama, too?

[Skidmore]

49. Let it all out, FrenchieCat!!!

Welcome back! Good to see you again.

Seriously, there are many more to add to your list.

Howard Fineman (Pretentious Bore)
Mike Barnicle (Pretentious Benchwarming Carbuncle on the Tush of Life)
Chris Matthews (Pretentious Navelgazing Kingmaker Wannabe)
Tucker Carlson (Asshole with Amoebic Level IQ)
Wolf Blitzer (Neocon Waterboy)

[FrenchieCat]

57. And there are oh...so many more.

None humble from what I have witnessed.

[Kahuna]

50. Exactly. It's just like when the media "elites" charged Obama as being elite..

That died like a lead balloon. Now these arrogant jerks have the nerve to call Obama arrogant.

[Vinca]

53. It's so stupid. They complain that Barack is acting like a president.

Well, knock me over with a spoon, that's what he's running for . . . right? If he was running for dogcatcher I imagine he'd be acting like a dogcatcher. What a bunch of idiots. They're trying to keep their seats safe on the Double Talk Express.

[opihimoimoi]

54. Obama should counter:::: "I might be ...so I practice to be ready before Day 1

[nc4bo]

55. Weeeeeeeeee - they been outed!! Should be on America's 10 Most Wanted! nt
