The Face of the Democratic Party

The neo-communist Left takes control.

This Week Mainstreams Al Sharpton: David Brinkley, Call Your Office

I like Jake Tapper.  I think Tapper is one of the few MSM big time TV people who don’t engage in what Bernie Goldberg dubbed the “Slobbering Love Affair” with Barack Obama.  There is no doubt that Jake Tapper is a huge improvement over Clinton Administration hack George Stephanopoulos on ABC’s This Week.
