Not letting libs get away with it anymore
The American Thinker ^ | April 11, 2010 | Thomas Lifson

Evidence accumulates that the left isn't getting away with as much media malice as it used to. Twice on recent television shows, liberal poppycock has been corrected, and even laughed at on talking head shows.

Newsbusters, which was knocked off the net for 36 hours by an attack, brings us two TV stories. In the first, Nora O'Donnell was laughed at by colleagues on MSNBC's Morning Joe, which she guest-hosted:

"MSNBC's Norah O'Donnell on Friday went too far for even her colleagues at the liberal cable channel, receiving mockery for her assertion that Newt Gingrich made racially charged remarks about Barack Obama. At the Southern Republican Leadership Conference, Thursday, the former House Speaker commented that 'shooting three-point shots may be clever, but it doesn't put anybody to work.'

Speaking of the President's basketball skills, Gingrich continued: 'What we need is a President, not an athlete. We need somebody who actually focuses on getting people back to work'..."

Whenever Nora O’Donnell speaks, something is subtracted from the sum total of human knowledge.

I used to think Norah was cute, till I noticed that she never smiles.

Did you watch the clip? O’Donnell looked stunned that her point was being dismissed and laughed at.

Most libs are not accustomed to having to defend their idiotic beliefs and can’t do so when challenged.

Libs are typically a mile wide and an inche deep.

Beauty yes, but brains and common sense seem to be lacking.

It’s an Olympic-sized jump to a conclusion to construe his remark as some sort of “racial slur.” Norah looks foolish even mentioning it. She has probably gotten by all her life on what she perceives as good looks. Women don’t pose like that unless they DO think they’re hot and want everyone else to know it. But eventually, the lack of brains becomes apparent.

Many chronic alcoholics living in homeless shelters attribute their condition to the popular Norah O’Donnell drinking game of pounding a shot whenever she says “of course”. Its the new “You know”.
