Wolf Blitzer = Groucho Marx with his frantic running around the newsroom and hammy overacting.  

we should have had that windfall profits tax ages ago...

Or maybe we DID..didn't we?

Blitzer always reminds me of one of those pure bred poodles that always seem on the brink of pissing themselves.

CNN really deserves a big, boisterous demonstration outside their offices, between Wolf Blitzer's lies and the Fatal Attraction remarks they are going into the gutter for BO.

Blitzer is right on the money.  Hillary is just trying to get votes with a cheap gimick.  To me she is being very irresponsible to senior citizens who will need the gas taxes to help suplement their heating and air conditioning bills.

This is it.  I'm tired of them playing the Axe for Camp Obama and distorting and  lying about Senator Clinton.

I hope everyone writes and NOW demanding an apology on the air from Blitzer.

But Hillary wants to suspend the gas tax for THIS SUMMER, yet there won't be any windfall profits tax then.

So sayeth Krugman and other economists. The gas prices would shoot right back up because demand would increase.

Blitzer is pretty fair - contact CNN and they will issue a correction.  This was probably a (serious) oversight on his part.

Blitzer is an idiot, but both Clinton and McCain's "plans" are little more than transparent pandering.  Didn't we already send out untargeted, regressive, free money with the "stimuls" package?  I don't think an extra $30 is really going to make much of a difference.  Especially since HRC's "plan" has a 0% chance of passing before summer.

to Hillary supporters, was the most 'fair and balanced?'

I didn't watch the clip so I can't comment on it specifically. It maybe that he and anyone with half a brain realizes that the idea that you're going to get a windfalls tax passed is beyond the realm of possibility. This entire discussion is a farce. A cheap political stunt designed to play on the very real damage that high gas prices have caused to working class Americans. Everyone sees right through it.

"It is becoming harder and harder to see difference between CNN and Fox News."

Not really.

One sucks (Fox News), one doesn't (CNN).  Not at all hard to distinguish between the two.

I guess Fox News will be our official new fav channel.

Seems in alot of other threads that people like Bill Oreilly more than Keith Olberman.

With these attacks on CNN,  I guess Fox is the only channel we can turn to.

I mean, the only thing Fox did was let Bill O Reilly buy himself out of a sexual harassment lawsuit.

Um, but the windfall profit thing wouldn't come in this summer so isn't the report correct, I mean the profit bit will have to wait until January or so right?

when it comes to coverage of Hillary.  They are a bunch of misogynists pontificating from their privileged position there in front of the American people.  I stopped watching Wolf Blitzer and crew (including world's biggest a**hole, Jack Cafferty) over a month ago.  

Clinton's plan amounts to about $30 in the pocket of the average gas customer. She says she'll implement a windfall profits tax, but the gas holiday would be "this" summer, and there is zero chance of her getting a windfall profits tax passed at the very least until she's President (sometime in another lifetime, but let's be kind). Which means that she's advocating taking all that money out of the highway trust fund at the time our highways, bridges, and other infrastructure is falling apart. Sounds like pandering anything to get elected to me.

Just like the rest of the TV schlockmeisters.
