Wasn’t she the twit that worked for NPR that smeared or fired somebody? I want to say Juan Williams, but my memory is foggy.

I think Juan is forgetting who saved his a$$ too...

it was CONSERVATIVES who allow alternate viewpoints to exist, not the loving, caring, liberals who FIRED him for it.

Yes, she was the one behind the firing of Juan Williams.

She said Juan needed a psychiatrist to talk about Juan’s allegedly illogical fear of Islamic terror.

That incident speaks volumes of the mindset of liberals. To the liberal, if you disagree with the liberal theology on an issue, you are mentally Ill.

illthis is right out of the old Soviet Union. People like this should never have any position of power

“Also a former tour guide in the collapsed Soviet Union...”

Which is equivalent to saying she was a KGB operative.
