Mr. Jones and the MSM

I did not know the Boston Globe was listening.

"Grayson apologizes for insulting Fed adviser

WASHINGTON - The Florida Democrat who said Republicans want sick people to “die quickly’’ apologized yesterday for his latest inflammatory rhetoric, this time for insulting a senior Federal Reserve adviser using a derogatory term for women.

Amid growing criticism from across the political spectrum, Representative Alan Grayson said it was inappropriate for him to call Fed adviser Linda Robertson a “K Street whore’’ during an interview last month on the “Alex Jones Show,’’ a syndicated talk radio program....

Lst month? So that is the SECOND TIME AJ has made the BG? I know they don't love him, but I know people who NEVER MAKE the PAPERS so WHAT GIVES?

Robertson is a former Enron lobbyist and Clinton administration adviser who was hired by Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke this summer to help with congressional relations. Washington’s K Street is where many lobbyists, trade associations, and law firms have their offices.

“Here I am the only member of Congress who actually worked as an economist, and this lobbyist, this K Street whore, is trying to teach me about economics,’’ Grayson said in the radio interview while discussing the Fed’s resistance to stronger congressional oversight.

Erin Matson, a vice president at the National Organization for Women, called the slur “absolutely inappropriate.’’

“Would he have singled out a male lobbyist and said the same thing?’’ she asked.

They are ALL the SAME TO ME!

So NOW is just ANOTHER DIVISIVE AGENDA-PUSHING OUTFIT, 'eh?

Grayson, a liberal firebrand, drew strong criticism last month for saying that the GOP health care plan amounted to wanting people to “die quickly’’ when they get sick. He stood by the comments, leveraging the attention to do a series of national television appearances in which he ridiculed Republicans as “knuckle-dragging Neanderthals.’’

Just wondering WHO gave him that attention, MSM?

Andy Sere, a spokesman for the National Republican Congressional Committee, called Grayson “a vile and vulgar man.’’ And the Republican National Committee tried to tie the uproar to President Obama, noting that Obama, at a Democratic fund-raiser in Miami Monday night, lumped Grayson in with other members of Congress as “outstanding.’’

Obama does MORE FUND-RAISERS than GEORGE BUSH!!!!

"New Orleans is the only stop on Obama’s schedule before a quick hop to San Francisco for a DNC fund-raiser."

Why the Liberal Jewish MSM Hates Republicans

Yeah, when liberals mouth off it doesn't seem to provoke the same type of reaction, does it? Unless you cross a bank.
