Geraldo Rivera complains: Obamacare is coming apart
Fox Morning News

Posted on 08/07/2009 6:46:16 AM PDT by pabianice
This morning Geraldo Rivera had a small tantrum on the Fox Morning Show as he tried to defend Obamacare to the rest of the guests who weren't having any of it. I was surprised and disappointed to hear Rivera say that he believes in Obamacare and that opposition to it in town hall meetings is being organized by Obama-hating professional right-wing goons. He then raised eyebrows by offering that Obamacare is disintegrating before the Dems' eyes (despite the Libs' bussing-in violent union thugs, whom Obama describes as "grass roots supporters" of Obama).

My congressweasel, Richard Neal, had a closed door "town meeting" at UMass Medical Center, in which opponents were locked out so he could give a pep talk to Obama supporters. Neal is the prototypical Massachusetts Liberal.

The only reason geraldo believes in obamacare is because it covers illegals.

Why does this vaginal wuss get so much airtime? Oh well, his meltdowns are good for ratings, I guess. It is hilarious when the host self-destructs.

Jerry Rivers is a gringo-hating Hispano-Racist. Like another FReeper said....he likes Obamascare because it covers illegals

Geraldo was at his peak during “The Mystery of Al Capone’s Vaults”.
That showed his true abilities.

Once zero beat Hillary, Geraldo started drinking the obama kool aid by the gallon. O’Reilly has been hitting the jug lately too. All these rich guys digging socialism - I just don’t get it.
To: pabianice
Jerrialdo, refuses to use the mass between his ears.
The surprised safe cracker, like he did this AM will soon be leading the “racist” banter that is starting to creep into the scene. When ever a lib is backed into a corner....scream and shout,dance about, Scream racism!

I solved my Geraldo problem years ago. When he comes on, I change the channel or turn of the TV. Does wonders for my serenity. A Congressvermin who holds closed-door “town meetings” need to be reminded of that often next year when he’s up for re-election. Not that it will do much good in Massachusetts, but it’s worth a try.

The real only reason this airbag supports the deathcare bill is because he is an ultra left-wing fascist douchbag.

Geraldo knows that his illegal alien buddies will gain EVERYTHING with this bill, while the American taxpayer will lose income and their current healthcare plans.
Fox should give him MORE air time so he can showcase his asshat ideas.

That's like being surprised to find out that Nancy Pelosi has had plastic surgery.

Fox has GOT to get rid of Gerry Rivers. He is a pathetic leftist that cuts everyone off and harshly pushes his leftist agenda.
To: F15Eagle
Actually his peak came when he did the news in Philly. Was all down the socialist/statist side after that.

Maybe he should be searching Obama's vault for the birth certificate and all his other missing records.

O’Reilly really seemed spacy on his show this week, giggly and weird. Geraldo is always focused, but weird.

During the OK City bombing story, Obama dressed up in cammies so he could gain access to the triage.
He thought he was smart.
Actually, people were DYING and security and credentials were not all that important.
I know people in OKC that still hate this guy!

It’s not going to happen, IMHO, because FOX needs this weasel on to be fair and balanced. He makes my stomach turn and he is a racist!

Rivera’s rant didn’t seem to be that well-received. The whole thing turned into a shouting match, and despite the fact that F&F said he’d be back after the commercial break, Judge Napolitano appeared instead. No Geraldo. So either he walked off in a snit, or he was asked NOT to return after the break. I’m betting on the first option—he was furious that the others didn’t agree with him.
