Ford, Jr.: Letterman Wrong, But Palins 'Unique'
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 06/11/2009 5:26:07 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

Harold Ford, Jr. is the epitome of the equivocating politician who tries to play things both ways. But that strategy came a cropper for the MSNBC contributor on Morning Joe today.

Ford claimed that though Letterman was wrong to make sexual jokes about Sarah Palin's teenage daughter, somehow the Palins are "unique," and thus presumably an understandable target. Mika Brzezinski came down on him. A clearly uncomfortable Ford was soon seeking cover.

SP is not “unique”, but she is “called”.

And that’s why Satan’s minions are so bothered by her.

So Ford has his own pedophilic thoughts about Palin's 14 year old?!

Not surprising at all.

Statutory rape is not a joke.

Wow, what a POS. I’d like to know what family is not “unique” when their child gets in trouble, whether it be pregnancy or drugs. Each situation is different and should be handled as a family matter.

I think Harold Ford owes the Palins an apology too.

Unbelievable.

Do any of these “souless” people have kids? These liberals keep hiding behind the “he’s a comedian” defense. Shove it Ford.

SP is PRECISELY the reform leadership needed by the GOP.

Naturally they have to go after her, HER FAMILY, in any way possible.

A few more SP’s and the Dhimmocrats are DEAD.

Even though now the child is much older, there was a very powerful Democrat who everybody knew in Washington, their child had gotten in trouble with drugs --

Who were they talking about?

Mathew 3:12
“His winnowing fork is in His hand, and He will thoroughly clear His threshing floor; and He will gather His wheat into the barn, but He will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.”

Ford just identified which he is.

We need Sarah and Todd all over the media. They, somehow, bring out the truth in liberals, which is mean-spirited-hate-filled-evil.

Let’s cut the pretense. Letterman is just another far left political hack who went too far in this particular attack.

Gee, Michelle and her daughters are kind of unique, too. Let’s hear some jokes about them.

There are disturbing signs of trouble looming in liberal paradise.

Since the Obama Coronation Mika has shown occasional and startling flashes of normality.
Can it be the the foaming-at-the-mouth excesses of the Obama era leftists have become too much even for this stalwart lefty?

Yes, they tend to do that.

You’re right, she need to get out and tell a single truth about liberals and liberalism every other day.

Their screaming and gnashing will identify them, and they won’t be able to help it.
