Brian Williams holds puppy, hopes world forgets he’s a liar

Disgraced NBC News anchor Brian Williams emerged from hiding this week with a feel-good prop: an adorable pup.
The truth-challenged newsman — who had been mostly out of sight since being suspended in February for a raft of lies — was photographed hugging daughter Allison’s pooch on the street in Manhattan on Monday.
Williams, 55, posed as just another seemingly carefree guy out for a walk with his family — all while readily smiling for the camera, cuddling his starlet daughter’s young golden retriever, Moxie.
He was joined by his wife, Jane Stoddard Williams, to celebrate his “Girls’’ actress daughter’s 27th birthday near her Chelsea apartment. The sappy, made-for-TV moment prompted speculation that he’s ready to return to the public eye and try to reclaim his chair behind the network’s news desk.~snip~

I suppose if Hillary Clinton can try and pass herself off as "just regular folk" then Brian can deflect the public with a puppy.
Just how little do the elites respect the intelligence of the average person?

Move Over Kermit

Well lo and behold, after the drubbing of abortion by coverage of the grisly Gosnell trial it seems that the leftists are in a rush to find a new face to clean up their belief in murder on demand.

Fortunately for them the recent controversy over reasonable restrictions to abortion in Texas has generated a new, more media friendly face.

Wendy Davis in heels and in Vogue

State Sen. Wendy Davis is getting the Vogue treatment.
The magazine’s upcoming September issue, known for being chock-full of fall fashion, features a glowing profile and a glamorous picture of Davis, a Democratic lawmaker from Fort Worth, Texas, who may be mounting a bid for governor. The piece offers a revealing look at Davis’s personal journey: how a struggling single mother went on to graduate from Harvard Law School and become a leading figure in the state’s Democratic politics, and recently garnering national attention.~snip~

Basically a puff piece celebrating a woman's refusal to allow even the most basic protections for women and the unborn.

No doubt on the outside Wendy Davis is a very attractive woman and the media of course jumped all over this in order to get the image of Gosnell and his horrific crimes out of the consciousness of the public and put what abortion is all about far behind an attractive woman who advocates the woman's "right" to choose to kill her baby right up to birth.

But never mind that, look new shoes!!!

I really don't understand why the liberal/commie media believes they can manipulate womens attitudes on these issues by throwing fashion at them. Do they really believe that the female mind is so easily manipulated that all it takes is a makeover and a glamour shot to get them to forget all about an issue?

Who is really waging a war on women?
