A couple of thoughts come immediately to mind...
WHEN will the American people start demanding that the use of taxpayer funds for NPR STOP? I have been asking this question for a long time...
When will we start horse-laffin’ the use of “McCarthyism” as a slur? McCarthy was his own worst enemy and self-destructed while actually doing a GOOD thing.
Also note the hurt feelings of some groups matter. Christians, who are murdered throughout the globe solely because of their faith, well leftists say they can lump it.
Juan should know the Muslims on 9/11 all wore suit and ties. They’ll dress to fit in if they mean to do something.
And Left Wing McCarthyism is the reverse of that.
"Cast aside" occurs when the freebies are curtailed. Best I can tell, the government is working to expand the dependent class, not contract it.
Yes, Islam is much more useful in bringing down the United States than the Black New Panther Party.
Sounds like ol' Juan is starting to see the light.
Firing Juan Williams is an affront to the first amendment. Mr. Williams didn't make the comment on your station. Soros' millions has entered your veins. I will be contacting the new congress to urge that they stop funding npr. People will be enraged when they wake up to this news.
Muslims have learned victimism, the political philosophy of always being a victim. This is somewhat laughable, since muslims are victimizing other groups all over the World, sometimes to the point of killing them. But once you embrace victimism, you’re entitled to special privileges. No one can point out the truth or facts to you.
Unlikely. Just like with Lieberman, it is less emotionally painful for those on the Left to accept the intolerance of the Left than it would be to join the evil (hateful/homophobic/sexist/islamophobic ... choose your favorite invective) Right.
Probably right!!
> And Left Wing McCarthyism is the reverse of that.
I think it’s playing into the Leftist’s game plan by allowing the name of an American patriot to be so besmirched.
Why not call it what it really is? Maoism. The shaming and marginalizing of people who don’t parrot the politically correct line.
Mao Zedong invented the term, “political correctness”. He stole the idea from Antonio Gramsci, but he crystalized it in his “Thoughts of Chairman Mao”, also known affectionately as “The Little Red Book” by the SDS and Weathermen.
We use the term derisively, but it is a highly sought goal among the Maoists.
Kind of like “newspeak” in 1984.
> Who was the AA activist who said that if he saw a group
> of black men on a dark street he would be nervous?
That was Jesse Jackson himself.
You know, the guy that used to spit on white people’s food when he was a waiter.
That was Jesse Jackson.
The first thing the Pubs should do upon winning the House is to defund NPR, immediately. A first act. It will deal a mortal mental blow to the Leftist Socialist Libs. Their darling pet will be instantly defanged. Oh the angst! A small initial flexing of the Pub muscle to let the old guard know that there is a new Sheriff and posse in town that will no longer let the Libs get away with anything. Come on Pubs, I know you’ve got it in you. DO IT!
How does it feel to be labeled a bigot Juan? Do you feel like a bigot? Do you still think anything negative said about black people even if it’s about their policy is bigoted? Huh?
NPR plays political-correctness card.Going out of business sale to ensue.
