CNN: Town Hall Protesters, Like the Founders, are White Supremacists 2009 August 22 Leave a comment tags: CNN, Don Lemon, Media Bias, News, Obamacare, Politics, race, Tim Wise, Town Hall by davidforsmark

Remember this? It was an iconic symbol of the media’s contempt for the Tea Party protesters, a CNN reporter arguing the Obama viewpoint in an extremely condescending and confrontational way. Even some mainstream media commentators and former CNN reporters expressed embarassment at Susan Roesgen’s unprofessionalism.

But if CNN thought this kind of thing was inappropriate, then their newest airhead Don Lemon didn’t get the memo. While he didn’t get caught on anyone’s amateur video (that we know of yet), he felt compelled to brag in an interview with Tim Wise, the self -described “anti-racist essayist” and author of “White Like Me,” that he too, took ignorant demonstrators “to task.”

So weird that I was just thinking about Susan’s little thing she did just yesterday and Don Lemon this morning because I was reading something on Newsbusters that reminded me of what he said and did one day when watching CNN. There was all of this good news coming out one day on the stock market and good economic news a few years back and he tried no less than 5 times to make the business reporter blame Bush for something. It was the most pathetic display of journalism I had ever seen until Susan’s biased rant/line of questioning.

If the Tim Wise mentioned above is a fat white guy with a skimpy beard, I saw part of this. Don Lemon is even stupider than that Rick Sanchez clown CNN has. Where do they get the nerve to foist such morons on their viewers if they want to be a major news network? these idiots make Shemp Smith look almost normal.

CNN Uses Pro-Communist American to Tout Cuban Health Care
NewsBusters.org ^ | August 8, 2009 | Rich Noyes


Gail Reed

There’s something deeply wrong with journalism that scrutinizes and criticizes the institutions of free and successful nations, but produces puff pieces on the supposed achievements of totalitarian dictatorships. On Thursday, CNN aired a piece of Communist Party propaganda about how Cuba could serve as “a model for health care reform” in the United States, complete with an authoritative sound bite from an American medical expert, identified only as someone “who’s lived and worked in Cuba for decades.”

But the expert, Gail Reed, is a longtime admirer of the Cuban revolution, married to the Cuban official who served as ambassador to Grenada in the early 1980s when U.S. troops liberated the island from hardline communists who had executed the leftist Prime Minister Maurice Bishop. She's also worked at Granma, Cuba’s official communist party newspaper.

[snip]

As for Reed, she was profiled in the Miami Herald back in 1983 after she and her husband returned to Cuba after American forces liberated Grenada. She talked about the fear she felt at seeing U.S. Marines surrounding the Cuban embassy, and told the newspaper, “I feel I have a very strong identification with the Cuban revolution.”

“When I first came to Cuba in the ’70s, I was very impressed with their efforts in building a new kind of society,” Reed explained.

Probably the only thing that “townhaller” and white supremacists have in common is that neither demographic watch CNN ~ and from what I can see of their ratings, not many others do, as well.

My Vote's for Obama (if I could vote) ...by Michael Moore

Friends,

I don't get to vote for President this primary season. I live in Michigan. The party leaders (both here and in D.C.) couldn't get their act together, and thus our votes will not be counted.

So, if you live in Pennsylvania, can you do me a favor? Will you please cast my vote -- and yours -- on Tuesday for Senator Barack Obama?

Tim Wise calling the Founders white supremacists is one of the dumbest things I've ever heard. Wise is feeding the fires of racism, while setting the stage for future reparations.

Slavery was dead wrong and Obama's push for socialism based on Marxism and the teachings of Black Liberation Theology, is just as wrong. With the “Community Organizer in Chief” being the most powerful social engineer of our time, he's doing what comes naturally.

Town Hall Protesters are not White Supremacists but they should be proud to be linked to the Founders. CNN, on the other hand, has jointed the ranks of Government Supremacists while the Town Hall Protesters, with superior intellect and virtue, oppose them.

Don Lemon, an obvious affirmative action hire, identifies strongly with BO, our first a-a president.

What does it say about your argument when you constantly have to make things up to support your side? It’s becoming a joke. I don’t want socialized medicine so I’m a racist. It really makes them sound silly. I didn’t want socialized medicine when Hillary was pushing it. Was I a racist back then too?

Poor Don Lemon - his rich white bosses must have had a talk with him and told him to get back on the plantation. Especially after he did the WRONG interview:

Don Lemon may or may not support Obama - but one thing’s for sure - he got his a$$ kicked after he did the wrong video interview. See post #19.
