"Meet the Press" to Be Reimagined as Garbage Dump
Hamilton Nolan · 09/04/14 08:52AMRepublicans Start to Give Up as Obama Clowns Them on Meet The Press
MTanzer · 12/30/12 11:11AMPresident Obama appeared on Meet The Press this morning to talk about the ongoing fiscal cliff negotiations. His 30 minute conversation with host David Gregory was pretty cordial and never really got heated at any point. Those looking for Obama to show anger at Republicans were probably disappointed, but he dug into them at several moments for their inability to take any of the deals that he offered over the past month.

Robert Kessler · 12/26/12 12:45PMBachmann Dodges Questions About Gay Rights
Max Read · 08/14/11 10:30AMWhat is Michele Bachmann running for, again? "I'm running for the presidency of the United States," the Iowa straw poll winner helpfully clarified to Meet the Press host David Gregory on Sunday morning. "I'm not running to be anyone's judge." Except for, apparently, gay couples with kids, whom the congresswoman refused to describe as "families." But stop asking Michele Bachmann about that! This isn't "what people are concerned about right now"! Even though it is, according to Michele Bachmann, "the defining political issue of our time."
