I heard her say it. The tone of her voice sounded like she was mocking political correctness — maybe mocking NPR.
How would, “Nina, I was at, pardon the expression, a bar mitzvah.” fly on NPR.
Liberals are always begging forgiveness for “offending” somebody. They ain’t right in the head. It comes from doing too many recreational drugs.
The fact the Juan Williams was fired and this douchebag still is with NPR tells all you need to know about NPR.
A non-specific winter holiday gathering.
The problem with all these 'commentators', 'newsreaders' and 'pundits' is that no one gets to ask them about themselves. They are not subject to the rules governing normal people. Just what the hell did she mean by that remark? Will anyone get to ask her? Did she misspeak? Was she trying to be funny? These, and many other questions will never be answered for the edification of the little people.
“Believe me, I’m no fan of Nina or her network. But this was an official Obama DOJ event. You know and she knows there is no way that it was officially called a ‘Christmas party’. So I actually took this as her own small commitment to truth and rebellion against PC-speak to call it what it was, rather than what the hosting governmental organization would have wanted her to call it.”
That is an interesting take on the incident and one I had not thought of.
However, wouldn’t such a meaning placed on her words be totally out of character for someone as PC as Totenberg?
She is an evil, vindictive, Marxist tool.
I think he ought to be worried about what’s going on in the Good Lord’s mind, because if there is retributive justice, he’ll get AIDS from a transfusion, or one of his grandchildren will. – Nina Totenburg on Jesse Helms
You mean THAT Nina Totenburg? Nothing to see here, just some more air leaking into that evacuated cavity between her ears.
The NappyOne
I would think at the holidays it might finally wear down even the most PC of us.
On the air, she publicly stated that she wished AIDS on Jesse Helms’ grandchildren and on Jesse Helms.
wonder what she would have said if she had gone to an orgy?
And I apologize for going to a Chanukah party when I was a youth 50 years ago.
What a bunch of crappola,
Nina. F.U.

somebody needs to apologize for having Nina at the party...talk about a snooze/loser fest. You know it’s going to be an awful party when the NPR crowd is there.
Howie Carr talking about it at this time.
Even if you’re of another faith or are agnostic or atheist,
the fact is that Dec 25 has been accepted to be the birthday of Jesus Christ. You may or may not accept Christ’s divinity,
but that is the name of the holiday, a federally recognized one. It is called Christmas.
She didn’t feel the need to apologize, she went out of her way to bring it up so she could demean Christians. She could have just said, “I was at a party...”
I saw that. How stupid, she’s an embarrassment. I was waiting for her head to start spinning around.
The Night Before Christmas, Legally Speaking
Whereas, on or about the night prior to Christmas, there did occur at a certain improved piece of real property (hereinafter “the House”) a general lack of stirring by all creatures therein, including, but not limited to a mouse.
A variety of foot apparel, e.g. stocking, socks, etc., had been affixed by and around the emission system of the wood-burning heating unit, hereinafter “the Chimney” in said House in the hope and/or belief that St. Nick a/k/a/ St. Nicholas a/k/a/ Santa Claus (hereinafter “Claus”) would arrive at sometime thereafter.
The minor residents, i.e. the children, of the aforementioned House were located in their individual beds and were engaged in nocturnal hallucinations, i.e. dreams, wherein vision of confectionery treats, including, but not limited to, candies, nuts and/or sugar plums, did dance, cavort and otherwise appear in said dreams.
Whereupon the party of the first part (sometimes hereinafter referred to as “I”), being the joint-owner in fee simple of the House with the party of the second part (hereinafter “Mamma”), and said Mamma had retired for a sustained period of sleep. (At such time, the parties were clad in various forms of headgear, e.g. kerchief and cap.)
Suddenly, and without prior notice or warning, there did occur upon the unimproved real property adjacent and appurtenant to said House, i.e. the lawn, a certain disruption of unknown nature, cause and/or circumstance. The party of the first part did immediately rush to a window in the House to investigate the cause of such disturbance.
At that time, the party of the first part did observe, with some degree of wonder and/or disbelief, a miniature sleigh (hereinafter “the Vehicle”) being pulled and/or drawn very rapidly through the air by approximately eight (8) reindeer. The driver of the Vehicle appeared to be and in fact was, the previously referenced Claus.
Said Claus was providing specific direction, instruction and guidance to the approximately eight (8) reindeer and specifically identified the animal co-conspirators by name: Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner and Blitzen (hereinafter “the Deer”). (Upon information and belief, it is further asserted that an additional co-conspirator named “Rudolph” may have been involved.)
The party of the first part witnessed Claus, the Vehicle and the Deer intentionally and willfully trespass upon the roofs of several residences located adjacent to and in the vicinity of the House, and noted that the Vehicle was heavily laden with packages, toys and other items of unknown origin or nature. Suddenly, without prior invitation or permission, either express or implied, the Vehicle arrived at the House, and Claus entered said House via the Chimney.
Said Claus was clad in a red fur suit, which was partially covered with residue from the Chimney, and he carried a large sack containing a portion of the aforementioned packages, toys, and other unknown items. He was smoking what appeared to be tobacco in a small pipe in blatant violation of local ordinances and health regulations.
Claus did not speak, but immediately began to fill the stocking of the minor children, which hung adjacent to the Chimney, with toys and other small gifts. (Said items did not, however, constitute “gifts” to said minor pursuant to the applicable provisions of the U.S. Tax Code.)
Upon completion of such task, Claus touched the side of his nose and flew, rose and/or ascended up the Chimney of the House to the roof where the Vehicle and Deer waited and/or served as “lookouts.” Claus immediately departed for an unknown destination.
However, prior to the departure of the Vehicle, Deer and Claus from said House, the party of the first part did hear Claus state and/or exclaim: “Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!” or words to that general effect.
