Burris Won’t Talk to the Media

By Jay Newton-Small | @JNSmall | February 18, 2009 | +

Because that‘s what really caused the newest Illinois senator’s problems, though probably smart if he’s the subject of an investigation, er, “review.”

    Mitt Romney’s Sweet Spot: Just Conservative Enough

    Why is Mitt Romney having trouble winning over the conservative Republican base? One reason is his lack of political finesse, an air of dorky rich-guy aloofness that reminds some people of John Kerry. More important, however, is his ideological profile. In almost every important way, Romney’s policy platform is more moderate than those of Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum. Gingrich  offers a much more conservative tax plan, along with crowd-pleasing ideas like his plan to sic federal marshals on “radical” liberal judges. Santorum carries a blazing social-conservative torch, championing ideas like a constitutional ban on abortion. Both Gingrich and Santorum talk quite openly about the virtues of bombing Iran. Romney’s temperature runs cooler in all these areas. Not to mention his past record of pro-choice, pro-gay rights positions. As Jon Chait notes today, the GOP establishment is defending Romney but also working hard to push him to the right.

    Conflict Over Obama’s Contraception Rule Intensifies

    The Administration’s decision to require Catholic charities and universities to provide free birth control through employee health coverage is several weeks old, but the maelstrom of dissent it’s created is widening. Republicans, who charge that the measure violates such organizations’ religious freedoms, have allied with Catholic groups in opposition, and in recent days a handful of high-profile Democrats have joined their ranks in calling on the Administration to broaden exemptions from the rule.

    JNS – I’m going to comment on your post because I don’t want to give Scherer the satisfaction of an extra comment on his.
    .
    But really, can’t you people drop drop all this Burris bullsh!t?
    .
    Look at Klein’s post at the top of the page about how dire things are, and then think about this constant trickle of Burris news you feed us.

  • jarais

    I just want him to shut up and go away. Although, Burris on Twitter might be fun to follow.

    With a RACIST running the DOJ, why should Burris even worry?

    Oh, right.

    On the breitbart article: So?

  • Paul-no not that one

    QH and Drudge are the only two who I ever see link to breibart. I never follow the link but I know Drudge likes eggs and QH writes cookbooks so I assume that it is a food site.

    Burris vs Holder?

    The biggest black on black crime since the Grammies.

  • http://www.hulagate.org hulagate

    Holder belongs to the Original White Sin cult that thinks you’re automatically a racist from the womb if your skin happens to be any lighter than his.

    Not exactly the self-loathing levels of say a Klein or Clixon, but close.

    So?

    The first to chime in on race:
    .
    None other than Hulagate!
    .
    I’ve noticed lately that hulu’s been in a snit because there are so many of those darned Black Americans around!
    .
    Just how many Black Americans would Hulagate be comfortable around, anyway…

    I think it depends on when hula’s momma tells him about his real daddy. Poor old hula’s been telling people he was just really sun-tanned at birth….

    Holder?

    He’s David Duke in reverse, with a badge.

  • http://www.hulagate.org hulagate

    53ish thinks the only good black Americans are the ranting black Americans?

    Not news.

  • http://www.hulagate.org hulagate

    53 was going to ask Holder to start a White History Month, but since Obama blew the decade’s budget on bailouts for Billary slackers they’ll have to cut it back to Horny Honky Weekend.

  • http://www.hulagate.org hulagate

    Holder brings up race, so obviously this is the GOP’s fault.

    Same logic the loon Obama voters used to raise The One from mad ice cream cone clerk to madder czar of the Blame America 1st Committee.

  • http://www.hulagate.org hulagate

    Did I mention that Holder’s a bigot?

    I may have.

  • themaverickformerlyknownasbasilbrush

    Hula, you really are Roland Burris’ love-child, aren’t you?

  • http://www.hulagate.org hulagate

    “Hula, you really are Roland Burris’ love-child, aren’t you?”
    … … …
    Roland’s related to Uncle Jesse?

    I thought he look more like Martin.

  • themaverickformerlyknownasbasilbrush

    Well, now you know, Hula. A little less racial self-hatred would do you good.

  • http://www.hulagate.org hulagate

    Burris and Holder and Wright house boy Obama are as close to black comedy as they come, or at least since way back when Jesse Jackson was busy expanding the brood on the Rainbow shakedown dime.

    Holder having no sense of history would not be a major concern, except that he’s the nation’s law enforcement lead.

    His stupid, stunted, slanted comments today were so beyond the pale (so to speech) that it IS almost dumbfounding, and to realize what a pack of sheer amateurs now occupies the reigns of power — until you consider their voting block (tenured union hacks, welfare estate queen bees, and the friggin AARP).

    We’ve got a fat idiot in a pants suit running around Asia threatening people she’s never met, a prima facie racist running the Justice Department, a socialist running the Exec, and a gay guy running Wall Street.

    “His stupid, stunted, slanted comments today were so beyond the pale”

    For a moment, Hula, I thought you’d begun to develop some self-awareness. And your grasp of English remains truly astoundingly bad. Are you sure you aren’t Sarah Palin in disguise?
