Did Laura Ingraham Mean to Make This Gesture? (Warped & Twisted Media Minds)
Esquire ^ | July 20, 2016 | John Hendrickson

CLEVELAND, OHIO—Laura Ingraham electrified the Q more than any speaker of the convention thus far. She shamed flag-burners. She hated on man buns and skinny jeans. She threw shade at Ted Cruz, implying he didn't have the stones to formally endorse Trump tonight.

Ingraham, a conservative talk radio host who quite literally makes her living in media, chastised "the media" for being wrong—wrong all along!—about The Donald. She had the crowd roaring, even more jazzed than in the 7 o'clock hour when G.E. Smith and the house band cruised through a nifty mash-up of "My Sharona" and "Gimme Some Lovin'."

But then Ingraham did this:

Now I see how the media can say “the convention has no mentions of policy, or conservative values, or foreign relations or supreme court or anything important.”

They’re too busy looking for imaginary signs and trying to figure out how to defend the attacks on Hillary.

Ya gotta admit though that the MSM picked our candidate again.

That may not have been the result they wanted, but too bad.

Had it not been for the MSM constantly publicizing Mr. Trump’s non-PC message, most of the country would still think of him as just a reality game show host and not as the next President of the United States of America.

Ya gotta love it when the MSM kicks itself in the ass!

They truly are useful idiots.

We disagree. I think Marcus Luttrel was the best.

She probably plagiarized something in her speech as well. I coulda sworn she used some of the same words that moochie used. Like “the” and “and”. These assclowns are really reaching. But not in a nazeeee salute kinda way. Guess their pissed she called them out.

So odd how the left is so obsessed with labeling rivals “Nazis” when the Nazis were Socialist Leftists with a political agenda that mirrors the DNC to the letter.

Sad is that they get away with it because America’s voters are so ignorant of history and reality. Symbolism over substance, every time.

Message boards and the media are using the still image to further condition the ignorant masses as well as obfuscate Laura’s message. Unfortunately this will resonate once again.

She forgot to hold her other finger over her lip (moustache style). Zeek Hile.

I’m surprised they didn’t accuse her of plagerizing the gesture from Hitler.

The loony left media tries to stretch it again. What next, a warning about campaign buttons? Oh, wait .... never mind.

Laura was addressing the press. Her 'salute' is mocking the "media-Nazis." Just like "femi-Nazis."

She gave one of the best speeches of the entire convention.

The only hope the Libs have is to try to discredit the speakers and distract from what they’re saying.

Alinsky on steroids.
