****************************
Gregory: it’s great to have you here Marco

Rubio: thanks Fluffy

Gregory: should Arizona police demand
the papers of suspiciously
brown-skinned people

Rubio: yes because Obama is weak

Gregory: should all 11 million
undocumented people go home

Rubio: did you know one million people
come here legally every year?

Gregory: answer the question Marco

Rubio: Obama keeps letting illegal people in

Gregory: he’s deporting more people
than anyone ever has!

Rubio: yes but we need a really big fence!

Gregory: I see

Rubio: after that we can talk about
those 11 million losers

Gregory: I’d like to talk about them right now

Rubio: a few months ago I invented
the idea of letting kids stay here

Gregory: you mean the DREAM Act

Rubio: oh no I hate that law -
mine is called the BAD DREAM Act

Gregory: what’s in it?

Rubio: Obama won’t shoot people
crossing the border!

Gregory: you haven’t said one thing
of substance since you sat down

Rubio: the DREAM Act would encourage
illegal immigration

Gregory: do you agree with the President’s order?

Rubio: no because it was all political
which has no place in legislation or regulation

Gregory: why are you so sad

Rubio: the President never came
to me to endorse my law before
he took my idea away

Gregory: you never even introduced
a bill in Congress

Rubio: that was my tactic to expose
the hypocrisy of Democrats

Gregory: how clever of you

Rubio: look you don’t just rush out a
piece of legislation you own party despises

Gregory: Mitt Romney spent all
spring bashing illegal immigrations

Rubio: what all those people waiting
to come here legally - no one ever
talks about them

Gregory: Does the GOP have
a problem with Latinos?

Rubio: Most Republicans love immigrants

Gregory: ha ha

Rubio: it’s not fair because most Latinos
vote for Democrats because of their
policies on the economy and foreign policy

Gregory: so the GOP is not hated
just because of immigration

Rubio: that’s right - there are so
many other reasons

Gregory: what about the Supreme Court?

Rubio: Obamacare caused the recession

Gregory: what is the solution to the
national health care problem?

Rubio: all individuals should just
go out and buy health insurance

Gregory: good idea but what
about free riders?

Rubio: perhaps we could have some
kind of requirement

Gregory: should we raise taxes
and pay down the debt?

Rubio: I reject the premise - we must
cut taxes to grow the economy and
then we will have more money which
let us cut more taxes until we are all rich

Gregory: you said you would
never ever run for Vice President

Rubio: yes but that was before I
knew how much Romney would need me

Gregory: have you ever made a
bad decision that would disqualify
from ever being President

Rubio: making politics a career

Gregory: why did you leave the Mormon church

Rubio: I’m a politician - no one’s going
to vote for a freaking Mormon in Florida!

Gregory: you’re young and
vaguely ethnic like Obama

Rubio: he is so fucking cool

Gregory: indeed

Rubio: its so sad - Obama could have
elevated America and instead became just
another politician letting people heckle him

Gregory: when will you run for President?

Rubio: In six years

Gregory: Biggie Smalls or Tupac?

Rubio: I’m West Coast all the way baby

Gregory: who is more popular Romney
Obama or Lebron James

Rubio: are those my only choices

Gregory: yes

Rubio: the black guy

Gregory: thanks for coming

[ break ]

Gregory: welcome Darrell - you want to hold
Eric Holder in contempt

Issa: I need Holder’s e-mails to prove
he engaged in a cover-up

Gregory: the Bush administration
started a gun sharing program

Issa: Bush shut it down

Gregory: because there were indictments!

Issa: see how honorable they were!

Gregory: the documents you want
aren’t about the program - they are
about how they reacted to your investigation

Issa: we need answers

Gregory: to what?

Issa: to our questions!

Gregory: about what?

Issa: the cover-up!

Gregory: what cover-up?

Issa: of their plan to send guns to
criminals to make the NRA look bad!

Richardson: it seems like this is all political

Issa: Obama is just like Nixon!

Martin: Boehner doesn’t like this but
he always folds to the Tea Party

Issa: I didn’t want this fight - I really
wanted to impeach Obama over
his birth certificate

Mitchell: politics in Washington -
who would ever have thought?

Gregory: what about immigration?

Richardson: Obama created
two million Hispanic jobs

Gregory: wow

Richardson: and not just in landscaping!

Gregory: that’s amazing

Martin: are we going to mass deport
eleven million people?

Issa: sadly probably not

Gregory: so then what should we do

Issa: border control must have real teeth

Gregory: meaning what

Issa: Vampire Border Guards

Mitchell: Marco Rubio is whining but
he still won’t say what his plan is or
might be or could be

Gregory: Romney is vetting
potential Vice Presidents

[ Romney on tape: ]
even that Cuban guy what’s
his name Margeaux

Martin: Romney is determined not
to repeat the mistake that rhymes
with Sarah Palin

Gregory: who should he choose?

Richardson: why not Rubio - at least
he’s interesting and the others are boring

Mitchell: what about choosing
the most qualified person

Issa: that’s crazy enough to work

Martin: Romney will make a
Management Consult decision

Issa: that will optimize the
platform going forward

Martin: I hear buzz about Condi Rice!

Issa: she was a disaster!

Martin: or also Rubio

Issa: Jack Kemp was going to
be chosen and then he wasn’t

Audience: and then he was

Gregory: Is Paul Ryan radioactive?

Issa: President Obama said
Paul Ryan had great budget ideas

Gregory: he did?

Issa: I have a subpoena out to prove it!

Richardson: he will choose the
person who will help him win - period

Issa: well then who will Obama choose ha ha ha

Biden, bursts into studio:
Hey Darrell - you know what’s a really
big fucking deal? My fist!
[ punches Darrell Issa ]

Issa: ow Joe you broke my nose

Biden: don’t cross me car-stealing motherfucker!

Mitchell: the possibility overturning
the health care law is a huge
defeat for Barack Obama

Gregory: what about will happen

Issa: Republicans will have to quickly
scramble to put the popular things in
Obamacare back into law

Gregory: you people like the benefits of
health insurance without having to buy it

Issa: yes - who knew?

Martin: progressive hate Obama
but if the court strikes the health care law
they may rally around him

Gregory: what a denoument

Martin: but of course it would be another
rebuke for Obama just like when he ruined
America’s credit rating

Gregory: Romney is raising a hella lot of cash

Mitchell: Mitt knows how to raise money
for doing nothing - it’s what he does

Issa: so we should elect him President -
Romney will get bankers and corporations
to pay America’s bills

Gregory: in exchange for what?

Issa: we can let them own Washington DC

Richardson: that ship has sailed

Gregory: and that’s another episode
of Meet The Press

**********************************

This Week with George Stephanopoulos - June 24, 2012

Guests:
Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA)

Tapper: this morning we will ask - sending guns to
Mexican drug cartels - what could go wrong?

Tapper: Darrell what the hell happened
and what do you want?

Issa: I want documents that are not blacked out

Tapper: maybe those are pictures of Mexico at night

Issa: the Department of Justice tried to get us
to drop contempt proceedings in exchange for
autographed pictures of Justin Bieber we considered it and so no

Tapper: Bush started Operation Wide Receiver

Issa: you forgot Operation I’m Gonna Git You Sucka

Tapper: you have not subpoened a single Republican
or someone from the Bush administration

Issa: we’re past all that now

Tapper: what does that even mean

Issa: look I need documents to catch someone
from the Obama administration in a lie - our
border patrol agents deserve that much!

Issa: you once walked out of the House in a
big huff when Democrats were mad when
Bush invoked Executive Privilege

Tapper: that was different because Bush
was covering up mistakes he made
instead of his Attorney General

Tapper: I see

Issa: Executive Privilege doesn’t apply when
Congress is setting up a perjury trap

Tapper: that makes sense

Issa: what we want is very narrow -
a fake impeachment

Tapper: you think Obama sent guns to
Mexico as a plan to take away guns

Issa: it makes perfect sense - hand out guns
to prove that guns are very dangerous
and kill people

Tapper: do they?

Issa: no - guns save lives!

Tapper: so should we send more guns to
Mexico to stop crime there?

Issa: exactly!

Tapper: thanks for coming Darrell

***********************

Gregory: Welcome Dave P

Plouffe: yo Dave G

Gregory: what is more important -
Greece or Ohio?

Plouffe: I’m curious - is it possible for you
to ask a question without a shit-eating
grin on your face?

Gregory: so I hear you saying Europe
will doom the President’s chances in the fall?

Plouffe: that’s actually not what I said at all

Gregory: Obama is clearly playing
politics with immigrants’ lives

Plouffe: fuck you Fluffy

Gregory: but the politics Pluffy

Plouffe: He’ll sign a DREAM Act tomorrow
- send it on down Congress!

Gregory: President McCain says Obama
is grabbing power like grabby
power-grabbing guy

Plouffe: Congress won’t act on immigration
just like they won’t fix the economy

Gregory: Obama promised to enact
immigration reform -- why is he is such a failure?

Plouffe: We’re closed that motherfucking border!

Gregory: you’re just trying to win Latino voters

Plouffe: did you know Mitt Romney
would veto the DREAM Act and
deport 11 million people

Gregory: yeah that’s awesome

Plouffe: no isn’t!

Gregory: Obama wants to raise my taxes

Plouffe: yes - but he wants to cut taxes
for middle-income people

Gregory: who cares - you’re going raise
my taxes aren’t you - you bastard

Plouffe: tax cuts for the rich caused
the recession in the first place!

Gregory: but the Grand Bargain!

Plouffe: trickle-down didn’t work
in the past and it won’t work in the future

Gregory: in 2010 Bill Clinton said we
should vote against the guy who
defeated his wife

Plouffe: that didn’t happen and
who gives a fuck

Gregory: it could be true

Plouffe: Mitt Romney didn’t create jobs
in Massachusetts and that’s not surprising
because GOP policies wreck the economy

Gregory: Obama got a trillion dollar
stimulus, health care reform and
Dodd-Frank which didn’t cause
 an economic recovery!

Plouffe: Mitt Romney’s policies
would cause another Depression!

Gregory: Clinton Democrats are very
concerned that it may not be too
early to utterly panic

Plouffe: Clinton also said Romney
would a total calamity for America

Gregory: Hispanics will decide this
election won’t they

Plouffe: si

Gregory: what about these horrible
leaks of bin Laden being killed and
other state secrets

Plouffe: it’s so sad tales of Obama’s
toughness on terrorists keeps getting out

Gregory: thanks for coming

[ break ]

Gregory: President McCain what about
Obama’s plan to let smart young
immigrants stay in America

McCain: this abuse of power has
never happened in American history

Gregory: so you will overturn it?

McCain: no because it’s a good idea

Gregory: um I’m confused

McCain: Obama won’t even call
Marco Rubio and make reform happen

Gregory: but you know that the GOP
is totally against immigration reform

McCain: that is also Obama’s fault

Gregory: are you kidding

McCain: we all have sympathy for these kids
who sadly must be deported so I can
be reelected by wackos

McCain: Obama is just doing the right
thing to divert attention from the
dropping price of gas

Gregory: Mitt Romney wants 11 million
people to self-deport

McCain: that’s not fair - he’s flip flopping
on this like everything else

Gregory: ok

McCain: Obama killed immigration reform

Gregory: are you fucking kidding

McCain: labor unions was what killed the Dream

Gregory: what about Mitt Romney

McCain: Romney is ready and willing
to change his position as a moment’s notice

Gregory: good to know

McCain: but also Romney would never
change federal policy as President

Gregory: really?

McCain: well he might I mean I’m
sure he would consider it

Gregory: Obama said the private sector
is doing fine - isn’t that just like when you
defended the economy in 2008?

McCain: no its different because when I
said that we had just entered a Depression
and Obama  has only added 4 million jobs

Gregory: I see

McCain: why won’t Obama bring back
a trillion dollars from overseas -
he just wants to tax that poor money

Gregory: it’s so unfair

McCain: Steve Jobs! Facebook!

Gregory: in 2008 you said Romney was evil
and didn’t create jobs

McCain: yes but I only said that to get elected

Gregory: oh that’s ok then

McCain: Dodd-Frank caused the recession 2008

Gregory: Sheldon Adelson plans on
donating $100 million to defeat Mitt Romney

McCain: I agree that labor unions are evil

Gregory: um ok

McCain: Obama goes to all these fundraisers
when he should be finding bin Laden

Gregory: he got bin Laden

McCain: what?!

Gregory: what about campaign finance abuse?

McCain: I have a crush on Sandra Day O’Connor

Gregory: are you concerned that Adelson
will have undue influence on policy

McCain: No because Richard Trumka is worse

Gregory: what about Syria

McCain: Obama should make their civil war
a fair fight by sending  whichever group
is less armed guns until it’s a tie

Gregory: I see

McCain: Obama doesn’t believe in American
leadership or exceptionalism

Gregory: getting involved in a
middle east civil war prove you believe
in U.S. leadership and exceptionalism?

McCain: women are being raped!

Gregory: that happens in Darfur too

McCain: who gives a fuck -
the important thing is Iran is bad!

Gregory: wait what?

McCain: where is my pudding?!
[ break ]

Gregory: wow Obama is talking about
the economy and our new Latino Overlords!

Halperin: Mitt Romney is awesome
and Obama an unsettled weenie

Gregory: you are so awesome

Strassel: Obama is a terrible President

Gregory: I love you

Ford: I disagree with both of you -
Obama is a loser and I should have
been the first black President

Gregory: what an interesting perspective

Ford: Greece should embrace the
austerity investment banks want

Gregory: don’t you work on Wall Street now?

Ford: that’s a coincidence

Gregory: Obama is so cautious

Maraniss: right Obama never takes
risks until he does

Gregory: that is so insightful

Maraniss: Obama is a dullard who
always misses the zeitgeist unlike
that awesome Bill Clinton

Goodwin: Obama needs to be like
Teddy Roosevelt and double
down on regulation

Gregory: ooh

Goodwin: he should say we need more stimulus!

Gregory: that’s a nice idea Doris but
Republicans are right most of the
time aren’t they

Strassel: Obama doesn’t want to talk
about the past he just talks about the
recession of 2008

Gregory: you are so smart

Strassel: Obama has a problem with
white people so he keeps reaching out to
women Hispanics and other assorted weirdos

Halperin: Obama is cheating by being popular

Gregory: how can we all elect Mitt Romney

Ford: Obama must stop attacking
Mitt Romney because fracking is awesome

Gregory: frack yeah!

Goodwin: Obama was only elected
President once - what a loser!

Strassel: America is broke!

Gregory: amazingly you discovered that
Bill Clinton and Barack Obama are
both smart and successful

Maraniss: Clinton had affairs and gets
out of them and Obama likewise is Kenyan
and got out of that

Gregory: wow

Maraniss: Once he got to the
White House Clinton got in trouble with
Monica Lewsinsky and Obama is the same
since after he was elected he became black

Gregory: Harold Ford you must ask yourself -
how did Obama pulls this off?

Ford:
[ stares daggers are Gregory ]

Gregory:  Harold?

Ford: Obama is a loser who won’t fight for Simpson-Bowles

Gregory: Romney was raised politicians

Halperin: Romney doesn’t think of himself
as a politician - after all he was elected
once and then fired

Gregory: what does he seem himself as?

Halperin: as a robot sent from the future
to help America’s billionaires

Gregory: and that’s another episode
of Meet the Press

Stephanopoulos: Jeff Sessions says
Obama is a big mean dictator

Plouffe: He’s the damn President fuckers!

bypassing our wonderful Congress

deliberately hurting America

a very nice thing to say

published a traitorous editorial in Germany
bashing the President

Stephanopoulos: you thought that was uncalled for

Plouffe: it’s unbelieveable!

the ObamaCare decision will be divisive

Plouffe: that is so surprising

Stephanopoulos: what’s your Plan B
when the mandate is overturned

Plouffe: the health care law is helping millions of people

Stephanopoulos: then it’s doomed

Plouffe:  I know I know

[ break ]

Stephanopoulos: I love undecided voters
because they don’t like either candidate
proving they’re so skeptical and principled!

Will: I’m going to write-in Ronald Reagan
- he’s better-looking than Obama and
more life-like than Romney

Goolsbee: Is it a referendum on Obama or
Republican policies that caused the
recession in the first place

Pawlenty: Obama has no good ideas on
how to fix the recession caused by Republicans
therefore we should elect Republican Mitt Romney

vanden Heuvel: Republicans in Congress
are preventing creation of more jobs!

Mitt Romney instead of letting Mitt
do it all himself

very scary which will be hard because
he is nice white man

Stephanopoulos: he’s so nice he doesn’t
want to cut spending for the poor

Goolsbee: but he has to keep his promises

Stephanopoulos: no one expects him to do that

Pawlenty: Obama is shrinking like a little boy
demanding a blue ribbon for showing up

Stephanopoulos: good analogy

Pawlenty: we must fix the economy
which was by wrecked by cutting
taxes by cutting taxes!

vanden Heuvel: idiot

Pawlenty: Obama caused the recession in 2007!

vanden Heuvel: Did he save the auto industry?
Did he?

Pawlenty: Romney will take credit for that!

Will: We must not tax our talented
genius job creators!

vanden Heuvel: consumers create jobs!

Dowd: both sides don’t the truth
unlike I brave truth-teller Matthew Dowd

Stephanopoulos: what is the truth?

Dowd: I see we’re out of time

Will: Mitt Romney is very funny because
he made stuff up about how Obama is corrupt

Goolsbee: yes that lie was hilarious

Dowd: If democrats really want to cut
the budget they would cut the budget!

vanden Heuvel: or we could invest in America!

Axelrod: that could be true

Stephanopoulos: Romney has a new ad out
blaming Obama for the 2007 recession

Axelrod: Obama but he wants to cut
taxes for small businesses and hire

that prudish wacko Rick Santorum

Stephanopoulos: I intend to

Axelrod: we need an economy built to last
- until November anyway

Stephanopoulos: you think that’s a winning message?

Axelrod: Mitt is not a liberator of companies
- he is a destroyer of them!

Stephanopoulos: Is Michele Bachmann right
that Obama is cheating by killing terrorists?

Axelrod: I wish the right would decide
whether he’s an America-hating Kenyan or
he's killing too many American enemies

Stephanopoulos: thanks for coming David

[ break ]

Stephanopoulos: Rick should we fire
firefighters and teachers?

Santorum: Obama is crushing the free
enterprise system! We need George W. Bush back!

Stephanopoulos: you called Mitt Romney
a mustache-twirling Wall Street financier

Stephanopoulos: that sounds worse

Santorum: Teachers are single-handedly
ruining America

Stephanopoulos: I didn’t know that

Stephanopoulos: please bash Obama for me

Huckabee: the private sector is not fine!

Jones: losing in Wisconsin is good because
it gave Obama a wake-up call

Coulter: the entire country is enraged against
public school teachers!
[ psychotic laugh ]

Rendell: bashing firefighters? really?

Huckabee: I love firemen but first we must
fire teachers who make $100,000 if you include
all benefits which is outrageous

Jones: Republicans won’t pass their own
bills so they can blame Obama for failing

Stephanopoulos: are you saying they
are rooting for failure?

Jones: no I’m not - I’m saying they
are creating failure!

Coulter: firefighters have huge pensions!

Rendell: would you fire firefighters?

Coulter: [ lunatic chortle ]

Stephanopoulos: Should Obama
attack Bain Capital?

Rendell: first Mitt says he created
10,000 jobs and then it was 100,000 - which is it?

Huckabee: Romney was not supposed
to create any jobs at all and he was
successful at that

Coulter: Mitt Romney has the Midas touch!

Jones: didn’t Midas destroy everything eventually

Coulter: [ sociopathic chuckle ]

Stephanopoulos: let’s use Bill Clinton
to bash Obama!

Stephanopoulos: you tried to impeach
Clinton and called him a murderer

Huckabee: I miss Bill !!

Rendell: the GOP only wants to destroy Obama

Jones: Republicans lawmakers -
are so insane they are almost as
crazy Ann Coulter

Coulter: Bill Clinton was wonderful!
[ demented giggle ]

Huckabee: Clinton is right - Mitt Romney
should be President!

Stephanopoulos: who should be Vice President?

Huckabee: Romney will choose carefully
unlike John McCain who picked a unqualified ditz

Coulter: I have not been asked to be Vice President

Stephanopoulos: what a surprise

Coulter: he should choose Chris Christie
because has ethnic appeal and hates public unions

Stephanopoulos: Marco Rubio could
help the GOP win Hispanics in Florida

Jones: Obama wants to help homeowners
in Florida and of course the GOP won’t do it

Stephanopoulos: OMG  the guy Obama
defeated in 2008 attacked him!

Huckabee: Obama is killing terrorists and
it is terrible that we know that!

Jones: He’s killing people! That’s also bad!

Rendell: to leak information about our
deadly viruses against al qaeda or Iran
or whatever is terrible

Coulter: leaks show Obama is being
tough on terrorism which means
Barack Obama hates America
[ hysterical laughter ]

Jones: I don’t have to support
everything Obama does

Coulter: Conservative don’t blindly support
Republicans - also Mitt Romney is the
greatest thing ever!

Stephanopoulos: people think the Supreme
Court has become entirely political

Huckabee: therefore the Supreme Court
should look at the polls and overturn Obamacare

Stephanopoulos: they should ignore the
law and only apply politics?

Huckabee: yes - following popular opinion
in required by the Constitution!

Jones: like they did in Bush v Gore

Coulter: Bush v Gore was a great decision!

Huckabee: the mandate is evil and unconstitutional

Jones: holy fuck the individual mandate
was an idea from the Heritage Foundation

Stephanopoulos: and yet polls say it
is wildly unpopular

Jones: what a fucking coincidence


Coulter: [ disturbing howl ]

Stephanopoulos: and that’s another episode
of This Week with George Stephanopoulos
