I don't know if this has been posted or not. I apologize if it's already been posted. This bitch reporter from CNN really lost her cool with a guy at a Tea Party rally in Chicago. She labeled the crowd as anti-government and anti-CNN. She also said is was organized by the right wing FOX News. What a bitch! She interrupts him once then lets him speak again but walks away from him. You stay classy, bitchy CNN reporter.

Another anti-CNN thread!
It's not an anti-CNN thread. The woman reporter was a bitch. She would still be a bitch if she was on FOX News and had done the same thing.
Sure, why not.Quote:

Faux has pushed and orchestrated the teabagging, circle-jerking bullshit, which signified nothing, elected nobody, changed no platform or govt action, totally innocuous.
The point was to distract the heat from the banks and financial sector, the real villains well-loved by the right-wing.
How many of you right-wing assholes think McLiar and the Repugs would have let all the big banks go into bankruptcy, would have not bailed them out?
The Repugs are trying to trash Obama for doing exactly what the Repugs would have done, and were doing until 20 Jan.
Hundreds in Austin?
Anything that gets people up off the couch is at least moderately salubrious. More power to em.

I hate republicans which are the same as conservatives which are the same as libertarians which are the same as christian devil nutjobs. I love the left-right paradigm because it makes me feel intelligent in the political scene. It's not hypocrisy when I side with one team and completely tear apart anyone who isn't with me regardless of any logical or common sense approach to each situation.
You go girl *snap* *snap* *snap*

Who do you think is paying for it.
The man in that video was on the Mark Levin show this afternoon. He wasn't as inarticulate as that video made him out to be. It was interesting to hear what he had to say.
CNN sees itself as a competing brand at a Fox-themed event. It's unusual to see it spelled out so clearly, but really it's not so surprising. The correspondent does come off as snotty and biased, and I agree she was inappropriately argumentative, but maybe that was the whole point.Quote:

They asked the same question at the Fort Worth rally and it was about 2/3 of the crowd.Quote:

when's the next party?
It is hillarious that the same people who promoted these rallies are complaining about the lack of coverage... when less than 100th of a percent of the poulation does something it is a non story...:lmao
And yet there were 60 reporters covering the introduction of the "First Dog". They even did background "interviews" with other dogs! It's reported that Bo even has a book deal already. But in that instance, he's much like his master - he hasn't accomplished anything of substance, but they're already writing his life story!! :lolQuote:

How many former presidents do you happen to know personally?
But you're forgetting one important fact. BOTH of Obama's "life stories" were written BEFORE he was elected President!Quote:

also that bristol was the same age and had the same marital status and obama's open drug use.Quote:

Due to this rule and other cultural effects, it is common to consider a half-black person "black". Heck, if you want, call him mulatto, though I believe that's offensive to some. One way or another, he's not 100% white. :)
Can someone not write a mid-life story?

In fact, you could even consider writing a best-selling book as "doing something". Or making a few millions as "achieving something". Or becoming a United States Senator. Or any number of things he's done.
Was Obama's grandmother running for vice president at the time?Quote:

That is when he wrote them yes. Rest assured many more books will be written by and about him.Quote:

I like the way you can't explain yourself and the way you try to weasel out of it by making it about me.

Not to long ago a reporter would go up to someone and ask a question then listen to the answer then say "ok back to you ........"Quote:

Good lord. What is wrong with Chumpy, he is so angry all the time. He is the democratic police here on ST and the grammar police as well. I could not live my life like that. I will get some insults thrown at me for this.:lolQuote:

If that woman reporter had been rude to say a black man, there would have been an uproar possibly an Al Sharpton sighting. And if that woman had talked shit about the crowd if say the crowd was at a protest for gay marriage, against the war in Iraq, against global warming, or against Bush, that woman would have been fired from CNN ASAP. Double standard!
Probably not.
Poor, oppressed minicon victims. I pity their wounded majesty. They've been denied their rightful hagiography as martyrs of an unjust, elitist society. Boo hoo!
