Jesse Watters Hits One Out of the Park
americanthinker.com ^ | Peter Barry Chowka

Posted on 08/15/2017 6:45:43 AM PDT by RoosterRedux

About ten minutes into the “A block” of The Five on Monday, Watters had his first shot:

I just want to make it clear that Trump is not the villain. The racist killer is the villain. . . Let’s look at the facts about the whole “many sides” debate. You had both sides coming into the town armed to the teeth – with clubs, shields, mace – the Antifa people, the Black Lives Matter people, the white supremacists, the Neo-Nazis – they wanted to rumble.

*snip*

Using every moment of his time to maximum effect, Watters continued his monologue, glancing down occasionally at notes:

We can armchair President Trump’s responses all we want, but there’s a lot of hypocrisy going on here. Hillary Clinton waited two weeks after Benghazi to call that terrorism. If Trump had blamed Charlottesville on a video, maybe he would have gotten a free pass. President Obama waited four days during Ferguson while that city burned. And he was in Martha’s Vineyard having dinner, and when he came out then he blamed both sides, the looters and the police. When Black Lives Matter activists executed NYPD people and shot cops cold dead in the streets in Dallas, what did the president do? He didn’t condemn Black Lives Matter. Black Lives Matter got invited to the White House. And when he did speak about it, he goes, “It’s hard to untangle the motivations of the shooter, and we don’t want to assign blame from one kook to a larger national movement.”

Obama called terrorism “workplace violence.” So it’s hard to be lectured about word games from the left.

Watters was terrific. Then the racist Juan Williams and the idiot GOPe *itch Dana Perino opened their mouths and I changed channels.

Outstanding!

As lame as the Five is, Watters has been a much more effective panelist than Bolling was. I love how he toys with Juan Williams or whoever the other idiot liberals are on the panel.

Bravo! The Democrats are counting on people to forget that Obama NEVER blamed rioters on the Left. Jesse is one who hasn’t forgotten.

Yep, Watters is a real treasure. Don’t otherwise watch the Vapid 5.

Watters should replace the vile Shepard Smith or the God-awful “The Five”. He’s the most conservative commentator on Fox. Hannity and Watters are conservative. The rest are liberals.

Watters is in the catbirds position on Fox since both O’Reilly and Bolling have been executed by the left. Either Jesse is next or he will inherit the earth.

Jesse is great. I like him but I hope he is not forced out in the future due to his opinions.

America seems to be undergoing several simultaneous FRENZIES OF HATRED. We are rushing our destruction, blaming our leaders, disrespecting each other.

Please get a grip. Slow down.

FRENZIES OF HATRED

That's the end game for community organizers and their backers.

Sorry I missed it - not really....I can’t stand the voices of Perino or Gilfoyle so I have to avoid the show.

I did tune Hannity in at 10 pm but not for long as he started out with a “right wing extremists” rally - that was enough for me. We are all doomed if we can’t count on ANYONE to tell the truth about the weekend incidents.

As I’ve been asking for 4 days now - SOMEONE, ANYONE PLEASE TELL US WHAT THE “RIGHT WING EXTREMISTS” DID other than show
up for their rally? Doesn’t anyone have any clue or are they all programmed to spout what the last person said?

The day of the inauguration we saw idiots screaming their ignorance over microphones to huge crowds and we could SEE what took place. Did anyone spout that same kind of nonsense over microphones on Saturday? What set it off?
Does ANYONE know? HOW DID THIS MESS GET STARTED?

One group had a permit for a rally and I guess one didn’t but the one that didn’t weren’t run off - allowed to stay and then WHAT????????

I read that more rallies are planned nationwide but without permits given out by cities, that shouldn’t be happening.

Can’t it be stopped right there? NO PERMITS. We don’t care where you exercise your RIGHT TO FREE SPEECH, you’re not going to do it in our cities! Take it to the middle of the NM or AZ or CA deserts - JUST NOT HERE!
There will be no emergency services so have fun - beat yourselves bloody for all we care. Bodies will be left for the coyotes to carry away!

“This is something with which we will not put”.....have to find some humor somewhere before we all go nuts....another way is to avoid the news... By last night I’d had it..

Correction: Jesse Watters has made it a habit of knocking it out of the park.

I wonder when the Leftist asshole go after him? And make no mistake about it, they will.

Glad Waters is making the case on national TV. The nation needs a constant reminder that Obama started it all.

And now, in addition to his legacy of division and a racialized politic, is the movement to use it all as an excuse to cripple the First Amendment.

Perino ticked me off, too. I was going to change the channel, but I wanted to hear Greg Gutfeld. Except for Jesse..they were all walking on eggshells last night. It was an uncomfortable show to watch.

I don't remember the who the blond bimbo on the 5 was, but she kept berating Trump for not jumping to conclusions.

Sheriff Clarke and I are on the same wavelength here:
