yep- i thought so....

“In addition, Rep. Emanuel Cleaver, a black congressman from Missouri, said he was spit on by someone in the crowd who was later detained.”

>snip<

“Asked about such claims, Emanuel spokeswoman Mary Petrovic noted that the online videos of the incident are under a minute — and so don’t show the entire encounter. She and stood by her boss’ account.

“He heard slurs,” she said.

There’s another oddity about that incident. Cleaver’s office initially claimed that a protester was arrested after spitting on him, but that the congressman decided not to press charges.

However, U.S. Capitol Police said the protester was never arrested. He was only detained and put in handcuffs, then released.”

You cannot tell me that if in fact we were talking about Mitt Romney saying a line like that…that people would not be going crazy and crying about race-baiting and talking about tone and tenor and coded language. I think we would, wouldn’t we?

I'm speechless - the above could have been said by any freeper...and we'd be right. Not what I'd expect to hear on CNN... WOW!

I still can’t get over one thing, what if a Republican had said what Plugs said.

I wonder if my lengthy message to CNN on Tuesday had anything to do with Soledad’s change of heart? She was the main focus of my wrath. I wonder if maybe they received a flood of distressed viewers?

Hmmm... Things that make you go hmmm....

Cleaver is just another socialist racist hiding behind black skin.

Meaning that only he can be the final arbitrator of what speech is racist.

His statement that Biden was “off prompter” is not a defense, it is a rank indictment. Biden *needs* a teleprompter to keep him from saying what he really means?

Obviously they took your threat to stop watching them to heart.

The next time they piss me off I'll tell them I'm reporting them to you.

If CNN would challenege the left instead of defending them I’d watch CNN much more.
FOX has become triesome wth their establishment guests and having one from each side talking over each other.
OR , ARF, Hanity coward on social issues especially about the homostapo, FOX and friends has Kilmeade and Gretchen who have an IQ of 1 and have become boring.
The five show is just down right awful why anyone gives them ratings astounds me.

Biden said “BACK” in chains. What group in American history has ever been put in chains? Amish? Italians? Eastern Europeans?
