ABC's George Stephanopoulos Spins for Obama: 'Set Aside' Last Two Terror Attacks
2010-07-20
Good Morning America's George Stephanopoulos on Monday lobbied that if one were to "set aside" the Fort Hood terror attack and the botched Christmas bombing, there haven't been successful attacks on America in the last few years.

Stephanopoulos was talking to William Arkin, the co-author of a new Washington Post investigation into the top secret agencies created in the wake of 9/11. The GMA host began by asserting, "I spoke with an administration official early this morning."

Putting a positive spin on Obama's first 18 months, he trumpeted, "And that if you set aside the Fort Hood bombing in Texas and the failed Christmas bomber, there has not been a major attack that's been anything close to successful on American soil."

#3  If you "set aside" those two banks I robbed last month then I haven't committed any crimes.

#2  "Good Morning America", eh? Is that network still alive? What are the audience trends for legacy network shows like this? Who, if anyone, still watches it?
