George Stephanopoulos Touts Democratic Talking Points, Urges Pawlenty to Denounce Tea Party Candidate

Good Morning America’s George Stephanopoulos on Friday parroted Democratic talking points while interviewing Governor Tim Pawlenty about the tea party movement. The potential presidential candidate mentioned the victory of several GOP women on Tuesday and Stephanopoulos pounced: ” You didn’t mention Sharron Angle, who’s going to be the Senate candidate up against Harry Reid. ” After playing a clip of the Nevada Republican candidate saying there’s “no such thing” as too conservative, Stephanopoulos listed off several of Angle’s positions and derided, “Are you concerned that some of your new candidates, especially those who have been backed by the Tea Party, may make it harder to win those seats in November?” According to Stephanopoulos’ spin, Democrats are “licking their chops” at the opportunity to run against Angle. Stephanopoulos must have ignored a new Rasmussen poll showing the Republican up 11 over Reid. The journalist’s critique followed closely to talking points released by the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee on Tuesday: “[Angle] cares more about promoting a strict social doctrine than helping grow the state’s economy. Sharron Angle’s rigid social agenda may generate national headlines, but Nevadans cannot afford it.” Considering the host’s past as a Democratic operative, this shouldn’t be too surprising. Twice this week, Stephanopoulos highlighted rumors against another Republican, Nikki Haley of South Carolina. Pressing the gubernatorial candidate on allegations of infidelity, the ex-Clinton aide brazenly demanded, “Can you assure South Carolina voters that they’re not going to be embarrassed if they elect you?” A transcript of the June 11 segment, which aired at 7:35am EDT, follows: GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: It was a big political week with the continuing fallout from the oil spill for President Obama. And a fresh batch of potential Republican stars, mostly women, coming out of Tuesday night’s primary elections across the country, which makes it a perfect week to kick off our series of conversations with the men and women who have their eyes on the biggest political prize of all, the White House. GOP Governor Tim Pawlenty of Minnesota, of course, has not announced yet. But, he’s a rising star in the party. And he’s starting to put in his time in places like Iowa. We’re so glad to see you hear this morning. MINNESOTA GOVERNOR TIM PAWLENTY: Good morning, George. Thanks for having me. STEPHANOPOULOS: So, let’s start out talking about the oil spill. You’ve been pretty tough on President Obama, saying the rig explosion happened on his watch. But, do you really think he could have done anything to prevent it? PAWLENTY: Well, we know a number of things. First of all, we have to get all the facts. But, one fact that’s important, in April of 2009, under this administration’s watch, the relevant federal agencies approved categorical waivers for environmental review for this operation. You know, that’s a significant decision. STEPHANOPOULOS: That was following the practice of past administrations. PAWLENTY: Yeah, we should be fair and say the notion that all administrations had these kind of operations going and they had no plan for really responding to this kind of disaster is horribly disappointing. A significant failure of government, broadly. But, we also know during this administration’s watch, they had the final say up or down on this operation. STEPHANOPOULOS: And does it make you rethink your support for oil drilling? Do you support, for example, the pause until we’re sure all of the rigs are safe? PAWLENTY: I do support the pause. We also need to make sure- this is an industry that’s operated 40 or 50 years, mostly without incident. But, you can’t have these things pumping oil on the bottom of the ocean floor without a plan and capacity to respond to a crisis like that. It’s pretty clear, they had no plan for what happens if a blowout preventer fails. STEPHANOPOULOS: Who should pay for all of this now? The Chamber of Commerce has said that it shouldn’t be all BP’s responsibility, that the federal government should pick up part of the tab. Do you agree with that? PAWLENTY: No. I mean, on what theory would the for be responsible for BP’s failure? The facts are still coming in. But, there were news reports coming in that there was a test for the blowout preventer. And it was delayed at BPs request. Now, what was behind that? Were they concerned because there was a malady or failure in the system? Why didn’t that come to the surface of the discussion earlier? There’s going to be questions and hopefully answers along those lines. STEPHANOPOULOS: Let’s talk about election night, Tuesday. Who was the big winner? PAWLENTY: Women. This is going to be, I think, in part, the year of woman. That’s a great thing. Particularly for my party, our party. My party needs to have more faces and voices that aren’t just middle-aged men. And so, I really applaud and celebrate the success of our women candidates. Susana Martinez down in New Mexico is going to be a fantastic candidate. Of course, you have got Meg Whitman and Carly Fiorina and others in California. I think it’s going to be terrific and I think, of course, the pendulum, we believe, is swinging back the other wary. STEPHANOPOULOS: You didn’t mention Sharron Angle, who’s going to be the Senate candidate up against Harry Reid. And I want to show you something she said on election night. SHARRON ANGLE: They said that Reagan was too conservative to win. There’s no such thing. STEPHANOPOULOS: Now, you know Democrats are licking their chops. They look at Sharron Angle’s record. They say she wants to do away with Social Security, the Department of Education, the Environmental Protection Agency, the IRS, make alcohol illegal. And they say that sure is too conservative. Are you concerned that some of your new candidates, especially those who have been backed by the Tea Party, may make it harder to win those seats in November? PAWLENTY: Well, each state is different. Each race is different. I don’t think you want to make a broad generalization that somebody is too conservative. What works in Nevada may be different than what works in Vermont. As a general rule, the Republican Party is a conservative party. The values and traditions that we have- STEPHANOPOULOS: Doing away with Social Security? PAWLENTY: Well, I’m not familiar with all of her record. But, you know, doing away with Social Security is not something I think most Republicans would support. We want to reform it and fix it and try to move it in a market direction. But I think most Republicans would say Social Security needs to be reformed, not abolished. STEPHANOPOULOS: So, I know, if you want to, you can tell us you’re going to run for President, if you want to take the opportunity. PAWLENTY: I’m going to, George. President of my hockey association. STEPHANOPOULOS: I knew- very good pause. Okay. Give us a window in how you’re thinking about it. How you’re thinking about looking at the race. And what would tip your decision one way or another? PAWLENTY: Well, a number of things. I’m very concerned about the direction of the country. I think I have ideas and experience, based on my time in Minnesota, a blue state. Conservative governor, reducing spending, holding line on taxes, reforming schools and public pensions and many other things. So, first of all, there’s a concern. I want to contribute to it and improve the outlook for the country in 2010. As to 2012, the way I look at it, if I can add value to the debate and be the one that delivers the message, I’d at least be open to continuing to public life in some fashion. But, maybe not. So, part of it is, is the message needed? Am I the one who should help deliver it? Or can I help in other ways? STEPHANOPOULOS: When you were thinking of running for governor of Minnesota, your wife Mary grabbed you by the lapels and said, “We need you. Minnesota needs you. You’ve got to do it.” What is she saying now?” PAWLENTY: [Laughs] My wife Mary, who I hope is watching this morning is wonderful. I hope you have a chance to meet her sometime. She has got great advice. But, she is very supportive to me continuing to play a role in public service, but is open to what that may be. You know, mostly to run for president these days, you have to be famous, have a lot of money or have novelty. I don’t have anything of that. But I have some good ideas and some good experience.

ABC’s Terry Moran Frets that ‘Republican Reformist’ Schwarzenegger Is Being ‘Squeezed Out’ of GOP

Nightline’s Terry Moran on Wednesday profiled Arnold Schwarzenegger as a “Republican reformist” and never once referred to him as a liberal. Instead, the co-anchor tagged the California Governor as a “lonely figure” in the GOP. Moran sympathized, “When you look at the way the Republican Party is going, here in California and around the country, rise of the tea party, candidates like Rand Paul, do you think there’s still room in the Republican Party for someone like you?” He then prompted, ” Or are you being squeezed out? ” Of course, most Republicans in California and nationwide would say that Schwarzenegger’s embrace of liberalism indicates someone who left the party, rather than being “forced out.” Although Moran noted the Governor’s massive unpopularity (his approval rating hovers around 23 percent), he never really explained why. The host also noted the state’s $19 billion deficit, but not the excessive spending. Instead, Moran spun, ” He sounds pragmatic, though many of his reform efforts have failed .” Throughout his two terms, journalists have often favored Schwarzenegger as an example of the ideal Republican. On November 20, 2006, CNN’s Bill Schneider enthused, “In California, Schwarzenegger carried independent voters handily. He reclaimed the center. Schwarzenegger did two things President Bush has never done. He flatly acknowledged his mistakes, and he changed course.” A transcript of the June 9 segment, which aired at 11:45pm EDT, follows: TERRY MORAN: Arnold Schwarzenegger. He rose from big screen action hero to Republican reformist in charge of governing California. But this real-life script hasn’t exactly enjoyed a Hollywood happy ending. Now he’s staring down his final months in office, and he’s going to end his term on something of a down note. So, what has he learned about politics and what’s next? I spent the day with Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger. On primary night in California last night, the big political stars of the state took center stage. But the guy who once dominated California politics, who seemed poised a few years back to usher in a new era in the Golden State, like Ronald Reagan before him, he was out of the limelight, strangely muted. These are difficult days for Arnold Schwarzenegger, and for a guy who has lived his life in the limelight, from his championship body building days immortalized in the documentary Pumping Iron, to his Hollywood career, built on indomitable action roles like The Terminator and Conan the Barbarian. [Clips from Schwarzenegger’s movies.] SCHWARZENEGGER: You see capital gains taxes going up. MORAN: The real world of politics has not been easy for California’s Governor, and for all his relentless self-confidence, he knows it. You’ve become a very unpopular governor. SCHWARZENEGGER: You know something, it’s perfectly fine. I understand the mood. I don’t blame the people for being upset about what’s going on. MORAN: What’s going on in California is a colossal grinding fiscal and political crisis with no end in sight. A $19 billion deficit in the state’s budget. A political system in such deep partisan gridlock it makes Washington look almost functional. It’s all a recipe for deep voter disgust. And a lot of that anger is aimed right at Schwarzenegger, who has seen his approval rating collapse to 23 percent, with seven in ten saying they disapprove with the way he’s done his job. But he is determined to keep pushing. We caught up with Schwarzenegger last week aboard the USS Midway Museum in San Diego, where he was unveiling Operation Welcome Home. It’s an ambitious effort to help returning veterans in the state. SCHWARZENEGGER: We want them to move smoothly from the battlefront to the home front. MORAN: The goal? Streamline the sometimes confusing process of coming home. SCHWARZENEGGER: We are saying to the veterans, you don’t have to run around anymore. You don’t have to get the runaround. No, you just go to one place, you call and we will pay attention. MORAN: It’s the kind of program tailor made for Schwarzenegger right now. It’s got bipartisan support. It doesn’t cost much. It’s doable. Because the last thing Schwarzenegger wants to talk about, even think about now, is the end of his career as governor. And this is really a major initiative of what are your last months in office, yeah? SCHWARZENEGGER: Well, it doesn’t matter if it is my last months in office, which it’s not. It’s my last year in office. But you know, this is irrelevant. I mean we continue on until the last. We sprint to the finish line. MORAN: Schwarzenegger, though, is sprinting on his own, a lonely figure on the state’s political landscape, and in the national GOP. When you look at the way the Republican Party is going, here in California and around the country, rise of the tea party, candidates like Rand Paul, do you think there’s still room in the Republican Party for someone like you? Or are you being squeezed out? SCHWARZENEGGER: I don’t feel like I’m getting squeezed out. I feel like I need reforms. It’s not the Republican Party. It’s not the Democratic Party. It’s the system that is wrong. What we want to do is create a system where you get rewarded for compromise, rather than get punished for compromise and rewarded for getting stuck in the ideological corners. CAMPAIGN AD: After Arnold, don’t we deserve a Republican? MORAN: Schwarzenegger was hammered this primary season by Republicans running away from him and Democrats trashing him. But, Arnold Schwarzenegger is far from the only incumbent politician getting trashed these days. [Video of tea partiers.] As President Obama struggles with a stumbling economic recovery and an environmental disaster in the gulf, Arnold sounds like he’s got some sympathy for him. As a governor, how do you rate President Obama and his administration’s response to the oil spill in the gulf? SCHWARZENEGGER: Well, I mean, I think that he’s doing everything that he can. And everything that he’s doing to his knowledge. There is no one in the political arena that is an expert it in, so we all rely on experts to tell us, you know, what is the thing to do. MORAN: As the oil continues to gush into the waters of the gulf, Schwarzenegger is blunt about the blame. SCHWARZENEGGER: I think one should not lose sight of one thing. Why do we have this problem? The problem is because we failed as a country to force the oil companies to have a safety device, which, European countries have. What’s the safety feature? What device do you have? Nothing, because they lobbied and Congress voted against it. MORAN: There are people who say that because of the scale of this catastrophe, BP should, essentially, be put out of business. SCHWARZENEGGER: Well, you know, that’s all easier said than done. You can’t go just now and say this is the worst company, let’s put them out of business when the fact is that 95 percent of our, you know, energy comes from fossil fuels. I mean it’s, I think, crazy talk. MORAN: He sounds pragmatic, though many of his reform efforts have failed . But yesterday, primary day, a triumph. A Schwarzenegger-backed ballot measure that would do away with party-controlled primaries in favor of open primaries, passed handily. SCHWARZENEGGER: You will see extraordinary change in a direction that California will be going and the kind of decisions that will be made here. MORAN: And then there are programs like Operation Welcome home, something that can get done for returning soldiers like Lance Yonker. LANCE YONKER (RETURNING SOLDER): Plastic surgeon put this ear back on and put my head together with 70 staples. And, you know, I had to learn how to walk again and do all that, and, you know, I’ve seen the worst of it, and Operation Welcome Home and everything that’s going on here has really helped me. MORAN: So, as the race to succeed him revs up, Arnold Schwarzenegger is looking to make a mark where he can. And given the state’s deep and intractable problems, a question, did California terminate the governator? The old body building competitor just won’t have it. SCHWARZENEGGER: You never have the surrender kind of attitude. I remember Munich, trying to break a record, I couldn’t. It was 500 pounds on the bench press. And I tried it many times after that, but the 11th time, I did it. So, people fail in sports, people fail all the time in many other things. That doesn’t mean that you give up. It means that you continue on and you keep saying, “I’ll be back.” That is the important thing. MORAN: He’ll be back. And Schwarzenegger told me he won’t think about what he’ll do next until the day he leaves office.

ABC Gives Jerry Brown Platform to Declare Whitman Dangerous, ‘Soul of California is at Stake’

ABC anchor Diane Sawyer greeted Meg Whitman’s victory in California’s Republican gubernatorial primary by putting forward Democrat Jerry Brown as the savior protecting the nation against Whitman becoming Governor. “Jerry Brown told us today, he wants the country to know that he sees this as an epic duel in California between the politics of ideas and the power of money,” Sawyer warned from Los Angeles in setting up an interview with Brown aired on Wednesday’s World News. Sawyer later relayed how Brown “believes the soul of California is at stake.” Condemning Whitman’s spending on ads, Brown charged “it’s almost like a ministry of information in a totalitarian country,” before he offered up pablum, unchallenged by Sawyer, about how he’ll solve the Golden State’s $20 billion shortfall by telling “legislators you have to get did of your cars, get rid of your perks.” Sawyer fondly recalled: “For 40 years we watched him – the son of a political family who studied to be a Jesuit priest, then turned Buddhist seeker. When he became governor, he lived in one room, bed on the floor, and rode around in his own Plymouth.” Now, “he says it’s a singular time for a man who believes the soul of California is at stake. He remembers studying Buddhism in Japan.” Brown got the last word in ABC’s infomercial for him: “‘Life and death is a serious matter. Time waits for no man. Do your best.’ And that, I think, could be the spirit of this campaign.” From the Wednesday, June 9 World News, transcript provided by the MRC’s Brad Wilmouth: DIANE SAWYER: And, as you know, we are here in California, a state reeling from debt, with no easy solution in sight. And come November, former Democratic Governor Jerry Brown has decided to ride into the race for governor again. For the Republicans, as we said, the head of eBay, the former head of eBay, Meg Whitman, who spent $80 million of her own money and has plenty more to spend. She won a decisive primary victory last night. Well, Jerry Brown told us today, he wants the country to know that he sees this as an epic duel in California between the politics of ideas and the power of money. SAWYER TO BROWN: You say we’re talking about a “billionaire’s demolition derby”? FORMER GOVERNOR JERRY BROWN (D-CA), SPEAKING TO CROWD: A billionaire’s demolition derby. BROWN: Well, the ads. I think each day there are 500, 600 commercials throughout the state. It’s almost like a ministry of information in a totalitarian country. SAWYER: Do you really feel that this is changing us fundamentally in some big brother way? BROWN: No, what I, I didn’t mean, it’s not big brother, it’s that when you can dominate the airwaves, radio and television, and in the mail, just by buying it, not just for a few weeks, but for months on end, that is unprecedented. It’s an unprecedented control of the channels of communication in a free society. And, yes, that is different. And it is ominous. SAWYER: So far Meg Whitman spent about $80 million of her own money. How much money do you have to spend on ads? BROWN: Well, I have $22 million in the bank, and I’m saving my pennies so hopefully we’ll have more by the time we get to September. SAWYER: 12.6 percent unemployment rate, $20 billion deficit in California. And California, as we know, drives a lot of the national economy. BROWN: No, we’re in trouble, and the country’s in trouble. SAWYER: But she has said specifically she’s going to do it, she’s going to give tax breaks to corporations and get them in by the boatloads into California to get the jobs back. BROWN: She also said she’s going to cut all the taxes on the rich. That will increase and exacerbate the gap. We got to cut that budget. We have to do it in a way that will bring the legislators on board. SAWYER: But how can you cut it to $20 billion deficit? Are there enough cuts in the- BROWN: You have to start. I’m going to start with the governor’s office cutting. I’m going to tell those legislators you have to get did of your cars, get rid of your perks. MEG WHITMAN, CALIFORNIA REPUBLICAN GUBERNATORIAL NOMINEE, SPEAKING TO CROWD: And I’m ready to give Jerry Brown the toughest election fight he’s faced in his 40 years of politics! SAWYER: Meg Whitman has said – in fact, she said last night, “I’m ready to give Jerry Brown the toughest election fight he’s faced in his 40 years of politics.” BROWN: Well, I like the compliment that she notices that I have been around for awhile. SAWYER: For 40 years we watched him – the son of a political family who studied to be a Jesuit priest, then turned Buddhist seeker. When he became governor, he lived in one room, bed on the floor, and rode around in his own Plymouth. BROWN: I am frugal. I take care of my money very carefully. And I think people can understand, I’ll take care of their money the same way. SAWYER: And it’s hard to believe that if he’s elected, Jerry Brown will be the oldest governor in the nation, 72. You’re up this morning already, you ran a mile? BROWN: I’ve already run, yeah, did some chin-ups. I’m trying to, you know, keep in shape here. I’ve got a very tough competitor. SAWYER: But he says it’s a singular time for a man who believes the soul of California is at stake. He remembers studying Buddhism in Japan. BROWN: Someone would intone, “Life and death is a serious matter. Time waits for no man. Do your best.” And that, I think, could be the spirit of this campaign. SAWYER: And, as we said, a critical election for California coming up. We asked Meg Whitman, by the way, for an interview today as well. She declined our request. We hope to speak to her soon.

Liberal Website Starts Rumor Sarah Palin Has Breast Implants

The most recent symptom of Palin Derangement Syndrome has now been discovered in media members: speculating on whether or not the former Alaska governor has purchased breast implants. The rumor started Tuesday on the liberal website Wonkette in a posting entitled, “Did Sarah Palin Buy Herself a Couple of Luxury Items?” “We got a political news tip on our Facebook page from Wonkette operative ‘Laura,'” the piece began. “And, having just now checked our tipster’s hunch with another woman (also, coincidentally, named ‘Laura’), we can report with confidence that at least two people with experience in having breasts say that Sarah Palin sure looks like she was trotting out some new work at the horse races on Sunday.” Taking the bait was the Boston Herald Wednesday (h/t NBer Rusty Weiss, photo courtesy Reuters): Hey Sarah Palin, I can see your cleavage from my house! Alaska’s former governor sported more Northern Exposure than usual at the Belmont Stakes race this weekend, sending the blogosphere into a tizzy, wondering whether Palin is exercising a woman’s right to (bigger) boobs. The Toronto Sun also swallowed the hook:  Has Sarah Palin added to her assets? Rumours are swirling on the Internet that the former U.S. vice president candidate and Alaska governor has gotten breast implants recently. Numerous websites have of course followed suit. So what got all this started? The following picture taken by a Reuters photographer on Saturday: So some Wonkette reader sees a picture of Palin, sends a tip to that website’s Facebook page saying it looks like the former Governor has gotten breast implants, and the rest is history. The only question remaining is when the rest of the Palin haters in the media will jump on this story. Stay tuned.

Sarah Palin wants Obama to call her

(CNN) – Sarah Palin says its time for President Barack Obama to pick up the phone and make some calls – maybe even to her. In her latest post on Facebook, the former Alaska governor takes aim at the president for not speaking directly with BP CEO Tony Hayward during the ongoing Gulf Coast crisis. Obama told NBC Tuesday that he has not spoken with Hayward because “when you talk to a guy like a BP CEO, he's gonna say all the right things to me – I'm not interested in words, I'm interested in actions.” Palin wrote that Obama's comments amount to “further proof that it bodes well to have some sort of executive experience before occupying the Oval Office,” and added that the president should call experts who lived through the 1989 Exxon-Valdez oil spill in Alaska – including herself. “We've all lived and worked through the Exxon-Valdez spill,” she wrote. “They can help you. Give them a call. Or, what the heck, give me a call.” “Based on my experience working with oil execs as an oil regulator and then as a Governor, you must verify what the oil companies claim – because their perception of circumstances and situations dealing with public resources and public trust is not necessarily shared by those who own America's public resources and trust,” Palin added. In the lengthy Facebook post, the former vice presidential nominee also revives battles of the 2008 presidential campaign while targeting Obama's lack of executive experience. “My experience (though, granted, I got the message loud and clear during the campaign that my executive experience managing the fastest growing community in the state, and then running the largest state in the union, was nothing compared to the experiences of a community organizer) showed me how government officials and oil execs could scratch each others' backs to the detriment of the public, and it made me ill,” she said. added by: TimALoftis

Kelly Brook Models Her Little Lingerie

I can’t think of a better way to finish off the day than with some incredibly hot pictures of Kelly Brook in various bra and panty combinations. Heavenly. The girl is just hot and she seems to be everywhere these days, not that I’m complaining, hot chicks should be required to leave their houses and get out their in public for us to look at. It would make everyone’s day seem that much brighter. Call your Governor.

Pennsylvania

We spent today in Pennsylvania, joined by former Governor Tom Ridge. We started off by touring General Electric Transportation’s Erie plant and hybrid locomotive production line. We met many of the employees and were able to see the new hybrid locomotive they designed. I met Jeff Immelt, GE Chairman and CEO, and watched Dad conduct an employee town hall at the facility. From there we flew to Harrisburg where he participated in some local interviews and attended a finance event. It was another great day on the trail!

Daughters

The first political convention I ever attended was when my mom was pregnant with me in 1984 and the Republican Party nominated Ronald Reagan for a second term as President. I have been on political stages and in campaigns since before I could walk or talk. If there is one thing I have learned, it is that it is difficult to establish your identity and independence as the son or daughter of a politician. When I was 14 years old, a reporter questioned my father about me having a hypothetical abortion, had I been pregnant at 14. This reporter’s question single-handedly changed my life. This story comes up in almost every profile written about me and in almost every interview. It’s a rough go being the son or daughter of a politician. I have not known Bristol Palin very long, but there is a certain kinship I feel to her as I do other political daughters such as Chelsea Clinton, Jenna and Barbara Bush and Mary Cheney. You can’t fully understand it unless you have lived it. So I just wanted to let it be known that I support Bristol and the entire Palin family.
