Coming Up on ‘This Week’
EmailWhat a week. Join us this Sunday when we speak with Rahm Emanuel, President-elect Barack Obama’s newly named White House Chief of Staff. He’s our headliner on This Week with George Stephanopoulos. We’ll talk to him about the challenges facing the Obama administration and what its priorities will be. Then, join us for our extended roundtable with Newsweek’s Fareed Zakaria, Harvard University’s David Gergen, Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Cynthia Tucker and ABC News’ George Will. See you Sunday morning. –George Stephanopoulos
Newt Gingrich's Full Speech at CPAC 2012

What? No Oprah? No Gayle King? Who else do you have to fill in so the Obama love fest can continue?
Hey, I got a great idea … why don’t you go find those ‘anonymous’ sources from the McCain campaign so you can continue to trash Palin with some legitimacy?
(Yes, I saw Oprah today, and no, I was not impressed. You’re a sad excuse for a reporter.)

I wish more news people were like George Stephanopoulos. He states the facts and let the bloggers form their opinions. That’s what media/news is supposed to be about. Too many right-wingers have gotten into the shaping of our opinions. That’s why we voted against them. It may just represent that we want to be free from propaganda style news (like they promote in the U.K.).
That being said.. George Stephanopoulos (if you read here), please ask him about his view of H1B expansion or if he sees H1Bs finally being limited. In my view, the expansion of the program has contributed to our economic downfall by displacing American workers.
If he sides with big businesses that *claim they can’t find Americans with skills, please ask him why he hasn’t looked into the training of Americans.
Obama/Biden 08!
We Can/We Did!!! :-)

please be sure to give us a link to the transcript, not just the video. This is an important service for Americans abroad like myself who do not have the internet access for viewing video content. thanks.

Stephanopoulos,
I want you to ask hard questions, but I can’t imagine you will!
So, I won’t watch!
I thought you were supposed to investigate people and find new things we don’t know.
As we found through the election campaign no one investigated Obama, why would you investigate Rahm Emanuel!
Investigative reporting is gone.
You just listen to what they tell you and believe it.
I don’t believe what my children say,
I investigate what I want to know.
I guess a question on fannie and freddie will be left out? His fathers radical views will not be questioned.
No need to work hard he will give you his play book before the show starts.
Palin’s clothes were an issue, but
Aires dedicating his book to the killer
of Bobby Kennedy was not in there.
Why haven’t any of you interviewed the Kennedy family to ask them how they
feel about the relationship?
I expect nothing from the interview!

Would not miss this one.
This will be a man to be reconed with in 8 years. Bet on it.

Why don’t you report on Obama’s aunt who has been in the country illegally and how U.S. citizens have been paying her welfare tab? Of course, I am sure that you along with all the other newscasters who made sure Obama wase elected let the story die as you did all the others about Obama’s “friends” and she will remain in the U.S. forever.

Points to Fareed Zakaria: He summed up precisely what Obama’s supporters really want:
Smart government that isn’t predatory or corrupt.

Why are you all talking about appointing Republicans to Cabinet posts? How many Democrats has George Bush appointed to anything. I’m tired of our kow-towing to the Republicans. You’d think there weren’t enough Dems to fill these posts. Wrong. there are plenty of us. F the Republicans.

Lucy – you aren’t going to get that if they insist on going the way of the socialists, because that isn’t smart, non-predatory or non-corrupt.
