Leftist Gets Slammed On Foxnews. Pays For Mistake.

Posted on 04/18/2004 7:05:15 AM PDT by ConservativeMan55

Foxnews anchor Julian Phillips interviewed POW Matt Maupins mother along with the mother of another soldier who is currently serving in Iraq. Both were very upbeat, and very positive. Despite the situations that there sons are currently in.

Now lets flashback for a second. Earlier in the week, Jesse Jackson offered to intervene in Thomas Hamil's case. Hamil's wife said that she approved and that she hoped Jackson was successful. Phillips apparently did not read his facts correctly.

He thought that Maupin's mother was the one that had said she approved of Jesse Jackson's involvement. So he asked a question that in essence he thought he already knew. Imagine that..a leftist asking a question that he already knew the answer to? Why would he do that? Because he expected the woman to praise Jackson. He thought he was asking a loaded question. Little did he know.

But that didn't happen. Here now is the exchange between the two.

Phillips: Jesse Jackson has offered to negotiate in order to release your son. What do yo..

Maupin's Mother: Uh. I don't think so.

Phillips: Uh yes but you said..

Maupin's Mother: NO. I don't want this to become political. Why would I want Jesse Jackson involved in this?

Phillips: Oh. I thought you had said...

At this point Mike steps in and tells Julian that it was Thomas Hamil's wife who had said it was ok for Jesse Jackson to negotiate.

This woman was obviously NO FAN of Jesse Jackson. The tone of voice she used and her facial expressions were of disgust. And I don't blame her. This mother just b&**slapped a leftist who was attempting to politicize her sons situation.

This is just a small example in a long line of leftist crap eminating from Phillips mouth.

Julian Phillips is a left leaning moron. He's constantly ranting about topics of which he is ignorant and ruins their weekend show, IMO.

Julian Phillips should be b*tch slapped everytime he opens his vile lunatic lib mouth.

I will not watch FNC if he is on. He is the black male version of Ms Z, who now works for CNN hating GW on live tv.

She is your typical mid-westerner. We know BS when we hear it. I thought it was great how she turned it around on Julian-left-wing-Phillips and told him how she felt about the Rearend Jesse Jackass getting involved.

I agree. She knows that Jackson could care less about her or her son. He only wants publicity.

He is continuously lying about the wall as well.
Juliet Huddy and Mike Jerrick are good, but Julian is either ignorant or a sly liar - I can't say which.

I agree. Julian Phillips brings the show WAY DOWN. If they need a "token liberal", they should at least try to find a more likeable one.

I don't even think he's a token liberal. He disguises his questions as to appear not liberal.

Disgusting how Jesse Jackson is always polticizing things and attempting to put himself in the forefront. God bless that mother and pray for the safe return of her son.

Well, on the other hand the tremedously good thing is that the rest of America actually gets to see leftists getting b1tch slapped, and this may put a seed in some of the viewer's liberalized punkin heads that libs are idiots.

I like this proof by example.

I don't see him fooling anyone. They always give themselves away when they open their mouth and insert their foot. Thank GOD for Juliet and Mike!
