CNN contributor Roland Martin made light of Glenn Beck’s emergency appendectomy in a post on his Twitter account late Wednesday night/early Thursday Morning: “Glenn Beck had an appendectomy today. He must have blown a gasket after Hoffman lost the NY-23. Keep crying, Glenn!”
Martin’s lack of sympathy for the conservative talk show host is more than apparent in this first post, but it was further compounded after another Twitter user called him out on it. Jtlol wrote, “Must be part of your ‘fresh perspective for the 21st Century.’ I hope you never need emergency surgery.” The CNN contributor replied, “I had an appendectomy in 2000. Your point?”
So Martin clearly knows the pain of an ailing appendix, but cannot sympathize with Beck because he’s on the opposite side of the political spectrum. Stay classy, Roland!

Being thin skinned won’t help us. Beck is a tough guy, he can take it. We’ll dish it out in 2010 when we win more.
Who is Roland Martin? One more lefty nobody.
He’s all atwitter about another man’s suffering.
And yet there are some who’ve said that Chris Matthews’ call for the murder of Rush Limbaugh was mere hyperbole and analogy (to a James Bond villain who had his head blown up).
The hate filled rhetoric from the Left is real.
he always looks like he’s ready to explode.. Roland. not Glenn. 8-]
I used to LIKE Rowan n' Martin. < /nevermind >
I thought Roland Martin was, like, a fishing guy...back in the day
To me fair, I laugh at the epidemic of cranial rectal inversion on the left all the time.
Roland Martin looks like a... never mind.
Did anybody Tweet him back to let him know Glenn wasn’t upset? He was actually excited about the race, even though Hoffman lost. Regardless of the results, it sent a message — we will keep coming for their seats!
Apparently Roland doesn’t listen to Glenn, either — but he somehow knows what he’s (not) saying or feeling. And they accuse us of being ignorant...
Rollie, I’d say I hope your significant other, whatever he or she may be, is feeding you a lot of heavy, fatty food...but it looks like he or she already is.
Very true. I understand Beck’s mattress at the hospital is stuffed with hundreds. If I were him, I’d be flying in the Dahm triplets to care for me. Wearing Saran Wrap uniforms, of course.
What was Beck’s last surgery that he detailed on his CNN show? Let us pray this one went much easier!
Black Racist Hate Crimes.
Will O’s new cheer leader O’Reilly stand up & call for his firing?
Martin is a perpetual whiner.
I could see how his stupid joke would make sense if Glenn had had a heart attack, but appendicitis? How could bad news trigger that?
Not just that.
Even among a lot of liberals...this kind of thing is bad Karma. Really... bad... Karma.
I would not want to be around Roland if something were to blow in his universe.
Wrong Roland Martin. This one rather resembles the large-mouth bass.
Tsk, tsk...his parents, who are both “community organizers” in Houston as he proudly informed the world after Sarah’s little acceptance speech joke about same, certainly didn’t bring him up to be a gentleman.
Why in the world does anyone watch the freak show at CNN any way?
Hey Roland, Carnac The Magnificent said it best.... “May you be forced to visit a near-sighted proctologist”
And here I thought Roland Martin was a bass fisherman.......
Maybe you can find a conservative in a wheelchair to make fun of next, jerk.
So he is not unsympathetic due to ignorance. That just makes him a low class A$$.
Well, I guess a blown appendix isn’t as bad as a brain aneurism. Roland seems to keep functioning after his fatal brain aneurism.
"..Martin was born in Houston, Texas where he attended Jack Yates High School. In 1987, he entered Texas A&M University on an academic scholarship, where he received his bachelor's degree in 1991.[4] In May 2008, he earned a master's degree in Christian Communications at Louisiana Baptist University, a primarily religious, non-accredited institution.[5] He is a member of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, the first intercollegiate Greek-letter fraternity established for Black Americans.[6].."
He should have gone to Clown college, but I guess he could not meet the prerequisites.
Hey Roland Martin; Whats the difference between Simba the Lion and Obama? One`s an African Lion and the other`s a lyin African.
