Video: Andrea Mitchell Yammers that Obama Treated like a 'Schoolboy' by Netanyahu

Ahem (cough, cough). Excuse me, I'm choking on the double standard that rammed itself down my throat while watching this clip of liberal media whack job Andrea Mitchell yammer about how Netanyahu treated Barack Obama in the Oval office. Watch as she blows right past WHY Netanyahu spanked Obama and asserts that he went too far in doing so. She then warns of possible 'blowback' against Israel. The pro-Obama, liberal media bias doesn't get more obvious than this.

Lost on Mitchell - wilfully so - is that we have every indication that Netanyahu objected to the language in Obama's May 19th speech before it was given. Obama was very likely warned NOT to use it. He did so anyway. Furthermore, why wasn't it disrespectful of Obama to go to AIPAC and reiterate what he said that so angered Netanyahu?

Video: Paul Ryan on Meet the Press

Last week, Newt Gingrich appeared on Meet the Press and basically pointed to Paul Ryan's budget solution as 'right wing social engineering, ' regardless of his denials in the face of Tea Party outrage at such a charge. Yesterday, it was Ryan's turn. We are watching a changing of the guard right before our eyes. Gingrich is the face of the 1994 Contract with America that fell apart a decade later when a Republican Congress spent like drunken sailors and paved the way for Barack Obama.

Newt's time is over and the juxtaposition of his appearance with David Gregory with Ryan's appearance one week later demonstrates it perfectly.

The quote of the exchange comes when Gregory challenges Ryan on polls that show a lack of support for his plan. After pointing to a need to lead rather than follow polls, Ryan delivers a smackdown:

"The Senate Democrats haven't even proposed or passed a budget for 753 days and we have a budget crisis."

Ryan made Newt look even more sophomoric.

Compare that with Newt one week earlier:

Gunwalker Informant: U.S. Government 'More Corrupt' than Mexican Government

We can officially count Fox News' William La Jeunesse among mainstream media reporters who are actually covering the Project Gunwalker scandal; Sharyl Attkisson was the first. The Fox News website has posted his entire raw interview with a confidential informant about what our government has been engaged in relative to an operation that allowed guns to 'walk' into Mexico. These guns and this operation - Fast and Furious - are responsible for the deaths of countless Mexicans and two federal U.S. Agents - Brian Terry and Jaime Zapata.

Fast forward to the 4:00 mark if pressed for time. These are incredibly explosive revelations that could lead directly to the White House. Perhaps one of this informant's many bombshells is his claim that the U.S. Government is actually MORE CORRUPT than Mexico's government.
