'Do You Have Any Tissues?' CNN Tears Up Over Walz's Son
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 08/22/2024 10:55:10 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

At least seven times today in the show's opening minutes, CNN This Morning ran the clip from last night's DNC of Tim Walz's son Gus getting emotional and pointing to his father as he spoke: "That's my dad!"

The panel collectively teared up, with Mark McKinnon saying "I've teared up every time I've seen the clip. I tear up thinking about the clip. I mean, talking right now about it I'm tearing up. Do you have any tissues?" McKinnon also swooned over Walz's speech, declaring, "I'm telling you, in all my experience, I have never seen anything as authentic as that speech."

Biden's former comms director Kate Bedingfield chimed in, saying "if you aren't moved by that, I don't know. You got a heart of stone." Bedingfield also referred to Gus's emotion for his father as "winning." Whether she meant that in political terms, or in the sense of winning as a family matter, wasn't clear.

Gus Walz has a really dumb look. The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.

He’s an IVF baby. Parents seriously wanted kids. Clearly must to spend tens of thousands to have children.

Remind Mark that Tim has a few tampons hanging around if they can’t find any tissues.

He's not an IVF baby - another one of Walz’s lies. They used something called IUI - Intrauterine insemination. Where the sperm is “cleaned and concentrated” and placed into the woman's uterus when she is naturally ovulating. The son is autistic or something.

He is not an IVF baby. That was another lie of Tim Walz. When called on it, someone speaking for Walz said that IVF is a commonly used term for fertility treatments in general. No one with any knowledge of it thinks that.

He is an artificial insemination baby which now has a new three letter name and acronym . IVF babies are fertilized in a test tube outside of a human body. Artificial insemination is fertilization inside of a human body, but without person to person contact. Both have helped couples to conceive. Only IVF can freeze embryos, which may be used or destroyed later.

I don’t know why anyone outside of your immediate circle should know how one’s children are conceived.

He’s an IVF baby.

That was established to be false well before today.

"...I have never seen anything as authentic as that speech."

"Authentic, did you say? I think we are all indebted to Gabby Walz for clearly stating what needed to be said. Not only was it authentic Democrat gibberish, it expressed a courage little seen in this day and age."

“I don’t know why anyone outside of your immediate circle should know how one’s children are conceived.”

A friend of mine had their first-born child go to classes and stuff so he could be there for the birth of the new baby sister. I suppose he was 3 or 4!

I asked my friend “Hey - did he watch the conception too?”

After the sister’s birth I asked his boy how it was.

“It took a long time. And you know what Uncle 21Twelve? She was born BARE-NAKED!” (Hmm, I guess those classes missed some steps.)
