Parsed, Stilted and Unconvincing
Mon, 18 Jun 2012|
White House senior adviser David Plouffe ran the Sunday news shiow gamet for the White House this weekend with disastrous results. His answers on the administration's handling of leaks of national security information were so rehearsed, clumsy and full of forced distractions and faux frustration. Plouffe could not have been more parsed, poorly prepared or unconvincing. Howie wondered if this was indicative of how the Presidents campaign is going.

I thought surely that though on Friday afternoon when Obama came out said that he was going to. Going to. Allow these the sport freeloaders to stay in the country. That Mitt Romney would come out with a statement I thought Mitt Romney learned enough to war actually say something. Meaningful. And in matters like this especially when it when. It's such a dreadfully unpopular thing that that Obama did don't tell me how how much she did with the idea. With the illegal alien communities among among my guests spilled and a lot of illegal aliens are gonna hope I'm gonna guess it's like being meaningful. India overall election compared to how many people were PO -- US citizens not to mention legal or illegal aliens. Were -- -- -- Angry about this. But them at them from currency and the easiest kind of -- he was on the Sunday shows and he just kind of -- him and talk about the whole thing and he really didn't say very much and it was rather disappointing. Until sanity get in the stuff we can -- will find some wiggle long I'm sure you heard some of it he's just the you know. It's it comes down to what. -- -- paraphrase it for what Harry Truman said but. If you give people a choice between a Democrat. And a Democrat -- -- Democrat. And Perry says Republicans but it's the same thing. Mean if you give people he would why would why wouldn't he say this is -- this is outraged congress didn't want this the guy said. You know why what just -- in October which is eight months 878 months ago. That that that today he it was not proper for him to war 211 and all these foreign freeloaders. And and yet then he goes ahead and does it. Especially when the when the that the unemployment rate is is. High as it is and how. Win so many people have left but were left the workforce and recruit or even trying to get jobs and almost and you have 800000 more you haven't. And you have all these people -- he's he's running around that Democrats are -- about how impossible it is to go to college and because of the high rates. But we shouldn't and now you have more people applying for a free sites and of course that's the only kind of write an illegal alien noses a free ride one. 8774694318774694322. 978 his fiancee was a juror on a civil -- Can't. You know I Q I save it -- it's probably -- can I just can't read anything about Rodney King. 71 -- Bunker Hill was yesterday. Technically of course it was yesterday. But the parade by the way it was last week because they didn't want the per did it's such -- it. -- my cap one now that's the the the congressman from Somerville says. We need to make Memorial Day and now we already have the fourth of July which should be a national holiday we already have a state holiday in a main holiday patriots today. Which is battles of Lexington and Concord now they want another holiday for the revolutionary war because of course it would just be a holiday for half. But it's such an important holiday. -- the parade was postponed from yesterday when it should have been held on the actual day that June 17 two to June -- so wouldn't interfere with. Others that. And it's but tick but actually as far as the what's left -- holiday -- today is holiday. Because. It's your holiday has been well again the holiday is it's art it's still holiday in the sits atop floating holiday for acts. But. As far as Boston goes you don't have to put money in the -- and that's that's that's it's that's ball. So my guests. I guess it's better than not that although if we can get those taxes actually day's -- -- tax. I'd rather pay money into the meters -- I don't ever pay meters and toll in that machine into the machines in Boston. Because I don't trust the machines and I don't wanna get it. Tech get. And then I have somebody some bomb scare off the ticket. Because he needs it wipes on what -- weapon that the mean I'll find out about it until it gets popped one might get pulled over for not paying the ticket and getting handcuffed and targets total way. So might my feeling is a -- even a twenty or which is better them. The chance. Of getting a ticket. In having these problems. I've also been known to get tickets when I didn't even when I haven't even been in the communities because they they -- notices. It's mostly computers now wants got a ticket for Wilbur and I had been the Woburn and in the years. They got they mixed up three and -- -- Europe mine and past seven or something like that and and maybe I should -- -- -- the -- in the -- -- -- in the downtown. Now I've been a Woburn a bit warmer because I've been Alton Cadillac but do you think that men did downtown. -- What do you think I'm visiting in downtown.

Now he also he also money. So why that's every doesn't -- money in this country that's odd package. Jim your next with how we cargo had jumped. They kept them. You know -- Unexpectedly was aware. Headwinds but -- it was seemed to be no cover I was third partner it seems that the you know catch up. Well yeah he gave that it won't get -- win the presidency uses the words had winds you know he could say it's it's it's considered bad for me even for. A guy who gets a permanent free ride like obamas say unexpectedly you know we supposed to know. He's supposed to have the intelligence that now right head Winslow. Headwinds though it has sir that that mother nature aspect to you know like there's nothing you can dual right. Right rumor has it there are certain cohorts of the Afghan American experience some -- a major cities with a surprising number of stop baby children now they've had -- Focused and stop did you stop at 1877469432218774694322.

He should be able to put it I people should be able the put that one together now. 18774694322. I know I know I I know I'm teasing him by. By not telling you right now but it's it's easy to figure out I mean I I figured out before people talk I just read in the papers who went. Most likely ones to -- about it. 18774694322. -- wary of the geography. -- go back and Google and look at the geography of the case. And they have the whole thing and two NC hole he was sees background. Senator chart you -- Dave your next with Howie Carr -- that day. Now. But that I get a little job search stories -- is that viable economy according to our president to get -- -- the -- I know I'll tell my story and it's going to be able situation -- well I'm not crying but. Our first six months for the job of the local paper. Minimum wage no bet it's the only event which again is -- -- is -- you all about -- well -- I applied.

Just leveled another 800000 people scum and that the country and they can have -- the run -- points. You know I just actually a little on this I mean. In the Leno -- -- that -- so I don't think this guy is connected with what's going on the bottom of the -- Again you know maybe -- -- -- dates you doesn't that but he doesn't think that the he doesn't think about the private sector he just thinks about the public's. You know all that's I don't think it I don't think it matters to him as the public sector in the public sector. You know is that when there's more people in the public sector now at least a federal level there ever has been before that make available on more money. I just I just got his wife and all of that and maybe not quite as good as your if you by the -- why now. Maybe it's gotten -- quite. -- -- and hit thanks for the call 1877469432. To all of the story of Michelle lot. Michelle Obama was speaking at the graduating class -- -- state that were her brother is the ask your question. All of this part. Talk about -- her -- We saw them out all the traditional markers of success but fat -- the fancy office the impressive lines are ressam. But the truth is. Neither of us was that -- Shoes. A successful life a successful career. Does not alone make for a rich life -- ritual. So she's so I guess you know virtually -- 3161000. Dollars -- that private hospital in Chicago when her husband was the senator. So she so that that's -- -- it was more fulfilling but she wasn't making the big money she was only making 3161000. Dollars. For a job that was. -- a jewel what's so -- and consuming that wind she gave it up after the election. Doctors president. The hospital. Never -- which. 3161000. Dollars in the the have to fill the job. And she's telling other people oh don't worry don't worry about your salaries. Everything will be taken things will take care of themselves go for the rewarding job. 3161004.

Our gonna comment about -- -- first I'm disappointed in you I didn't think that you all people -- ego so fragile as to be needed. Propped up by such -- -- people marketing.

I thought it was an he was an invite for people to watch give me a slap up the side. Well that's -- that's why I'm calling but anyway after out you've been up upside and I do think.

You're expected to Mitt Romney this is the way he's going to fight and from November -- -- milk -- he's an MB and -- -- postpone this is what he's got. Yeah but. He has and you are the last and I mean you don't may be in the past you know you couldn't you could make that -- claim and it would be legitimate but I mean hasn't learned anything from John McCain you don't you don't win by being mr. nice nice guys finish last. He was another great quote from Leo this one from Leo Durocher. You would hope that he -- the EU would hope that he -- powered by 11 last comment I know that. That that headwinds we you know we know how that went like blow and we also learned recently that the first but he doesn't go down all the way to go to everything -- Good bye good bye thanks for the call bill 18774694322. All of those are markets demand that -- and Cindy that that we do we think he thinks we owe it to the audience to play -- -- pool -- In honor of the pass her or him. In memorial. To the passing may -- letter of Rodney King will look will look for it officer mark that's what that means that we don't know if it's still exists or not someone. Someone cleaned out to somewhat cleaned out the the -- files so that we can of one more clips of people -- about a great Tom Brady's. -- next with how we cargo ahead bill. -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- don't look good shots. All we almost anybody -- -- -- -- presidential -- ball yes but -- at the end of the day. We put in their short of Japan and maybe Tom Tancredo. All is at the end of four years and -- the borders closed -- really important some decisions made. Well he'll do so it but I guarantee a dual edged the borders dual six a lot of things that go along get along. Built some stops and all it is deep this economy to ultimately collapsed. Onto our we saw long at all. We all all of the conservative side just get a -- I'm not gonna say vote for Obama or upload them to play it really is where. It's now. No we are we are in a pickle as they say but you know while -- what are you gonna do mean you have to have at least somebody who understand what the problem is. Mean the fact that -- the fact that -- -- now it's now more than a week ago that the private sector is doing fine I mean that -- that tells you. But that. You're dealing with a guy who does not have -- I agree I I agree it's it's Pearl Harbor a whole bunch of other things right now we don't really it's all legal. Our best -- is that unfortunately it. And he started -- -- fire that prediction. I like I like them. Okay like I think we -- where we are right now all we're all in particular on the -- in it's been an -- -- -- it's well. Thanks for the call will spotlight 1877469432. Don't know if you've been reading your -- Britney stories about but the battle of midway. We're just it seventy that anniversary was just up earlier this month and about ten days ago. There -- a lot of good stories about it and various places and you know speed of Nimitz and -- calls like that to the two great animals. There was a there was a pilot accuracy was squadron leader of some dive bombers and a they they thought they knew where the Japanese. Our merchant that where the Japanese aircraft carriers were and they they but they wouldn't. It they. -- the orders were to stay in this certain area and and everybody could figure out just from -- the weather and everything else where the where they were they weren't in the area where they were being assigned to work so this one squadron leader. Set I know where they heartened to hell with you that's reset to to the commanding officer of the guys on the to hell with you so committed. An active in subordination. He took his whole squadron. Right in the in the direction of the the plains of the of where the carriers were. And -- these were real old fashioned but -- bombers -- torpedo bombers forget which one was. But they went there and they had to scramble all the -- opted to to meet them. And they shot down all the points only and out of the thirty guys and that's want to point one of them survived one of wasn't the guy committed and subordination. But. The fact is that -- the pilots. The zeros had to go back down and were being refueled when the next round of Americans -- And the idea that global -- care they blocked two or three carriers and apartments. And just because this guy had disobeyed orders and would have been. Court martial if he had survived which he didn't because he wasn't one out of thirty who survived the mean. Any -- you re that's going to think to yourself new were -- like -- now. Who's who's want to commit it you know we in subordination. Or you know and I know we're technically not a warm really warm but. Who who's willing to -- to say. The president has the emperor has no clothes were doing everything wrong and we've got to do things different now there isn't anybody like that right now and if fact I haven't done. If fact they hadn't done that I'd never heard of this -- until two weeks ago. If he ever done that I mean who knows how the battle of midway -- turned down in the battle of midway it was really -- beat turning point. -- the world in the Pacific 1877469432218774694322. -- -- -- -- 1877469432218774694322. So it's called free number but now we. -- six point seven months a few of the store wrongful fuel planes through the -- down minutes later dive bombers arrived zeroes too -- to stop them going into the dive. They scored direct threats OK what are the short ones but anyway it was. Because the guy a again a guy disobeyed orders and a and had the audacity to tell the in Columbia brass. That he was going to disobeying orders and -- the again if it is survive it cost him his life he quoted the rest of them the rest of the planes. Just I mean -- -- you know how they lived through worried that they didn't get killed that day because they were just. The writing around. Over -- open ocean because there was nobody there. 187 did they had winds pushed Rodney into the pool. I don't know the answer -- Question 18774694322187746943. 22. Now Sam Donaldson to -- them on this many on right oppose Obama because he's all right share. 1877469432218774694322. Is a great that they don't have the power though that they used to. We people -- vaults and like one or of America used to get it's it's -- news or 13 of the people or pay him attention got their news from Sam Donaldson because he. He was a White House correspondent for one of the three networks. Does anyone even though little White House correspondent for AB CTV news now I know no quote no one I don't think. Wooten because no one no one -- watches at 187746943221877. The Q Russ was the big thing. The guy from the daily caller that I was -- it that was bigger than that then Obama. Deciding to -- basically usurped the constitution that was that was bigger news on the Sunday weekend shows it was. It was this guy in erupted Obama. When he was when he was making his statement and not taking any questions. The sort of been the biggest story of George Bush had been interrupted. The don't think they -- said that the media is out of control. I don't think so Tim you're next with how we cargo ahead them. I -- disagree on our response to Obama I I think the whole issue is. Obama's gonna throw up piece outside issues that he wants to get Romney gave him. Romney yes -- stay on course to beat him where the economy. Joseph. That get. You don't don't get off the beaten tractors. That's where the it's going to be won or lost on those it's aside issues and not gonna -- that there. -- That's the seems to me to be more than sight issue you know when the -- like totally yeah open borders and let them let all these people go to probable line warrior legally. You know again they're gonna all be taking either jobs or places and American universities away from Americans. War and -- likely going to be on welfare. Extent Obama wants them to get into these discussions with them so -- -- proper -- real problem is that the economy and jobs. And if I mean you can take their. They're young a couple of vote nick and Terry. The Eric -- issue and your name issues so I additions to the main issue wonderful. Romney gets caught up. And of fear in part that's what some -- these side issues. Let's cross issue I mean -- icici the argument you make -- but I mean that's like the issue of the the gay gay marriage and gay marriages never prevailed in a single state right. So so Obama is on the wrong side of that issue -- -- There are sure that so I get a truck aren't just. No woman but it's just like the Catholic thing I mean the more more people with the Catholic Church whether they're Catholic -- -- dinner with Obama right. I I understand that but. In -- they're wrong. The people that support those issues are accountable for all the way to go though which is going to be will -- well probably anyway I think. But let me ask another question this is that -- -- there. Why aren't they count the number of people unemployed or -- -- either count the number of people employed. It. He hit it. It would be would that Adam Barrett. I mean I I heard that there -- five million less people. Working today than when Obama Terkel. Obama's suburbs suffers just a rude I mean they can make and figure out they want to -- Who didn't sign up which -- concession only the little work. You watch out for -- network but you know with spoke of what the point is that you know. I mean you're paying attention I'm pay -- attention. Again most people were paying attention -- Romney. The fact is most people a lot of huge number of people some of whom unfortunately gonna come up a vote on the -- but the sex are not pay attention. That's what they changed those numbers every week with the you know the first time -- point right. Every every weekday at just the previous weeks from the week before because they don't let that because they know what's gonna be buried deep in the story and it won't get the headlines right. And then they revise them to and you know I mean it's it's ridiculous. They never -- how hard they're never revised -- never have been revised downward and while this guy that was president. -- the vote revised works like these two are 55 reports of so. Right right -- the gets like 66 out of 67. Thank you thank you them 1877469432218774694322. It's people -- meet these Rodney King chip that million Rodney King jokes was Rodney at the wheel of the -- mobile month. Ted Kennedy's. Let's see. I didn't. All of them. A lot of the people voted for a bomb in a way because he was black this is 603 now -- CM is trying to have it both ways of it wasn't racism and why was -- not why is it now. Because because he's trying to have it both ways obviously. To a seven says on the pole by a mortgage chip talk -- Romney needs to talk about the Keystone Pipeline jobs and cheap oil yet he does need to talk about that I mean that's it. Jobs are the number one issue but I I just think that. You you know you have to have some kind of backbone here and say that guy is wrong and he shouldn't -- And you know he he shouldn't have. Usurped his powers under the constitution we should've done something that. Obviously most Americans are opposed to because the fact is that the the -- then that supermajority. In congress the Democrat congress would not pass the DREAM Act and twenty tan so away. This is this this is a slap in the face to the American people whether they have a job they don't have a job when they have kids in college -- -- kids in college. Diane your -- were powered car or have Diane. -- I and the private sector is doing great I mean -- the last two years we got a 1% raise. The and I believe everybody aren't so -- and they get 8% year. I don't I don't know what they get on I know that the universal was in a couple weeks ago on the show dog -- Will get raises and you know it's stroke or whatever few races in the private sector. There are no Christmas parties know Christmas bonuses bonuses of pretty much on -- thing of the past. You know like the people's commissioned sales people's commissions are getting. You know you have to -- health insurance. Costs have gone up. Now while whereas illegal aliens it's still as free for an illegal alien is -- once. Four years ago. Yeah I now it's infuriating and I don't. I don't understand what -- -- more outrage about bench. Yeah I I think people -- just are resign I mean look at look at the polls mean people -- -- People more depressed than they've been a very long time according to polls -- -- the futures even is even worse than the the immediate past which has been program. Thanks for the call by hand -- 18774694322. I'm now car. 1877469432. To a Rodney King was not in the -- -- in which one was -- and 603 how many more Rodney King jokes we have that's. Bob your next with how -- cargo ahead Bob. I don't. LSI's electric chair mr. open it up this gentleman you're talking about is -- commander of torpedo squadron eight. Are the players lieutenant commander John called. Yeah she actually didn't disobeyed orders as much as we have. But this agreement on the launch time he was chomping at the bit with the rest of the pilots they want to relaunch. And they actually. Got news of the battle of midway. Taking place as. Read a quote he said you could go to hell he told the guy you can go to hell. Well I have the book in front of me -- ever -- in years but it's written by mr. And some George K yeah and its intention get a was the sole survivor of that told the -- or -- I met him in Florida here in fact I have assigned -- you're probably -- -- -- Now I gotta gotta sort of it's got to stuck to their bases I was -- I'm Howard car.
