When will these people understand that he’s a Republican operative (a smart one) who plays the name game and will never be fair and will always slant his opinions towards Republicans.
And once again C&L’s incredible archives gives us this great segment about Luntz’s signature efforts to fake out Americans on important issues as you’ll see from The Daily Show with Samantha Bee back on 04/19/05.
Bee: Luntz has made a brilliant career..spraying perfume on dog turds…

Another Turd!
the supremes are repig tools !
What does Jon Stewart think of Cheney’s overthrowing our government?
Samantha Bee…. she is one brilliant comedian. That was classic.
foolme1ns @ 3:
We’ll probably have to watch the show this evening to get an answer to that question.
Luke: I’m not afraid.
Yoda: You will be…You will be.
“All anal gangbangs”
LOL!
Sooo much truth to the humor.
Sorry for this being off topic but I had to post something somewhere when I saw this:
on CNN’s website they have a (bogus) poll question that asks “Should schools be allowed to censor students?” The available answers are yes and no and if you can believe this, in America, home of the Free Speech 66% think it’s OK for schools to cencor students…should the student be an example of the schools success and shouldn’t for good or ill that students public statements be left to his/her discression (not to mention this wasn’t even anything done on school grounds) why should any school be allowed to censor any student no matter what they are saying, shouldn’t the student be able to make his/her own statements and be responsible for their own actions? what is happening to America? man, Reagan screwed everyone up and they have never recovered…c-mon people at least lets give Al Quieda something to hate us for…let us have our freedoms!!!
I do realize that these polls are total crap but it seems like more and more we are looking less like America (this sentence brought to you by an American public school)
I told them if they have Luntz on they have to give equal billing to their correspondent Geoffrey Nunburg, author of “Talking Right” to offer an alternate perspective. I also mentioned that Luntz is only a couple of steps from Karl Rove in influence on conservatives.
Like give me a break. That’s like inviting the marquis de Sade to the Pope’s birthday party.
I’d marry Samantha Bee (if I didn’t already have a ring on my finger) just for this clip.
kgp
I see. They are going to let him discuss Thursday’s Democratic Presidential Forum. So he will say things like “Why didn’t they ask Hilary when she is going to stop killing little Christian babies.” Or ask Obama when he joined Al Qaeda.
She’s already married, Romeo! ;-)
I think we should help out old Luntz with his inability to think of a massaged synonym for Orwellian. “American Language Reinforcement” comes to my mind.
What say you?
PS: Kudos for the new format C & L! It’s great to able to refer back to the story without having to flip-flop between windows. Thank you!
xoites had a pretty good idea the other day. To get it started we set up a blog. Please click on my name to visit and read all about it. xoites is there now. go visit.
Brilliant segment, as always. Wow.
Frank Luntz is the lowest form of pond scum. We don’t need people in our political system manipulating the talking points. If the candidates can’t speak from their heart, they shouldn’t be elected. This is what our democracy has come to. We really need to change it.
The trolls and all the brain dead, God fearing 26% lock step marching sheep eat this crap up. It’s better than the good old movies to them. It’s “God Bless America” all over again!!
We are truly a sick and screwed up country under this f*cked up administration. We don’t know the difference between bull shit and truth any longer. We can take a hero and make him into a traitor, a whimp and make him into a “mountain man”, a sneaky low-down blood sucker and make him second in command of the once greatest country in the world, a world power military and drain them dry and useless, etc, etc.
Thanks george. You have really brought God into our life. Such a shame…..
TDS… absolutely brilliant!!
What Luntz does is against the law. A Republican operative propagandizing to Americans.
Some people work for a living. Luntz lies for a living. How does this sack of shit sleep at night.
Ohh, thanks for this! I remember when this video came out… the only people more stupid than Luntz are those that signed up for those “fake town hall meetings” and signed a “pledge of alliance” to the GOP before they could actually go in.
Speak double you will.
He’s a professional liar and he’s proud of it. Notice the smug smirk when he twists words, lies and acts like he’s done something to be proud of. Nothing is real to these people, it’s all fake. They lie to each other to reinforce there own lies then by some osmosis the lies become reality in their twisted sick minds.
Perfume on dog turds. Brilliant!
War is Peace.
Samantha Bee is my Yoda!
Forget about sacking him. He should just be fired.
Once again, a comedy show cuts thru all of the bs.
Orwellian / The War on Resistance.
If these bastards told the truth there would be no need for VIOLENCE. His entire life is an abortion.
Luntz is still a putz… (or should that be puntz—better aliteration)
With a very few exceptions political coverage on PBS should be called for what it is,Propagandistic Bull Shit. Despite Thomlinson’s leaving PBS he has had a dramatic impact on their political coverage. This can be seen in the rather narrow coverage on Jim Leher’s News Hour. Rarely if ever do you see/hear real progressive voices on his program. If it wasn’t for David Branchio, Bill Moyers and occasionally Frontline, PBS could be a Republican publicity machine.
Been a long time since PBS/NPR has any credibility. The CPB has long since turned to the dark side. PBS/NPR are just GOPer propganda organs at this point, undeserving of any respect. I no longer listen to public radio or watch PBS programing. and I no longer support local stations. If they are going to insult me by indulging in propaganda, if they are going to attempt to violate me with manipulative lies, they in turn deserve nothing but my contempt. If all they are going to do is betray the public’s trust, I’m for shutting them down.
Oh man, that was hilarious! Because it had a heavy dose of truth.
Sam Bee. The best and funniest lady on the box, today. Everybody associated with The Daily Show and The Colbert Report are ” hands down ” Geniuses.
When Vice president Cheney acquires items which require security does he require them in his position as President of the senate ? Action required by and utilized in the performance of his Senate duties probably should be covered. (in a legal sense an area of distinction can and probably FOR FUTURE VPs should be made)
That picture makes me expect to see Kermit the Frog (oui, oui) plunkin’ on his banjo singing, It’s Not Easy Being Green.

Here’s a real popular song from 70’s radio you won’t hear on any nostalgia stations.

I loved that she held auditions for the “average American in the town hall.”
That piece was brilliant!
ubblue @ 31:
So true. I think we need to get the word out about how compromised PBS has become. They tip-toe around the real issues, and pay lip service to what should be obviously corrupt scandals as though this were just another side of an opinion. I don’t know if I’ve tuned in at the wrong times, but I’ve heard; “The good side of Global Warming.” Concepts on economic issues from the Heritage Foundation (in a Democracy, these shills would be in prison), and various pieces supporting things like Government spying and how Ohio in 2006 was “controversial.” Yeah, a few people in prison which inlucdes people who were in CHARGE of the election, and it’s “controversial.” Used to be you could report on something, and that would LEAD the conviction. Now, you have to find the one non-crony judge who will actually convict a Republican crook. It’s a hard path to get someone to pay for their treason — not for lack of suspects.
Luntz’s rug should have a chinstrap.
