The indifference shown by Breitbart News disgusts me…
Pat Caddell, the Fox News Contributor and Democrat pollster who engineered Jimmy Carter’s 1976 Presidential victory, blew the lid off CPAC on Thursday with a blistering attack on “racketeering” Republican consultants who play wealthy donors like “marks.”
“I blame the donors who allow themselves to be played for marks. I blame the people in the grassroots for allowing themselves to be played for suckers….It’s time to stop being marks. It’s time to stop being suckers. It’s time for you people to get real,” he told the audience that included two top Republican consultants.
Caddell stole the show as a panelist in the breakout session titled “Should We Shoot All the Consultants Now?” He spoke with a fire and passion that electrified the room. When the session began the large room was half filled, but as word spread of the fireworks going on inside, the audience streamed in. By the end, it was standing room only.
Breitbart News spoke with Caddell prior to his talk, and he promised he would deliver a “brutal critique” of the Republican establishment and its political consulting class. He did not disappoint, pulling no punches with an unyielding evisceration of a small group of Republican consultants, the Romney campaign, the Republican National Committee, and Karl Rove’s Crossroads GPS Super PAC.
“When you have the Chief of Staff of the Republican National Committee and the political director of the Romney campaign, and their two companies get $150 million at the end of the campaign for the ‘fantastic’ get-out-the-vote program…some of this borders on RICO [the 1970 Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act] violations,” Caddell told the crowd. “It’s all self dealing going on. I think it works on the RICO thing. They’re in the business of lining their pockets.”

The reporter who says he inadvertently started the bogus “Friends of Hamas” rumor about Chuck Hagel has some advice for conservatives in the media: try using Google.
Dan Friedman, who covers Congress for the New York Daily News, joined HuffPostLive host Ahmed Shihab-Eldin Wednesday to talk about how he thinks a couple of jokes he sent to a Republican senator’s aide wound up fueling the false rumor that Hagel might have received money from the Hamas-loving association. Most notably, the rumor wound up in a piece on Breitbart News, and rocketed around conservative media circles. The problem? “Friends of Hamas” doesn’t even exist, something Slate’s Dave Weigel showed was pretty easy to figure out.
After Friedman’s piece was published on Wednesday morning, Breitbart’s Ben Shapiro, who wrote the original Hagel story, posted a follow-up defending himself:
