The Huffington Post, 13-09-09

NBC has replaced this woman's comment about Muslims with a less inflammatory comment: "I'm scared to death for my country. I believe Obama is running this country into the ground."

This appears to be the only edit made to this online video. Footage of her previous comment does not appear to be posted. The original video was broadcast Saturday evening, Sept. 12, 2009, on NBC Nightly News.

-------------------------------

A protester at Saturday's Tea Party on the National Mall in Washington, D.C. made clear that she was afraid, saying "We are losing our country, we think the Muslims are moving in and taking over."

NBC Nightly News interviewed the woman, who was surrounded by fellow protesters as she made the remarks. Her name was not used.

Participants at the event, billed "March on Washington" by its organizers, rallied against President Obama's health care plan and what they say is out-of-control spending.

Can you imagine how it would sound if NBC cherry picked interviews at a peace protest? Holy cow, we have seen em but America hasn’t.

I fail to see the controversy in her statement. See Great Britain, Scandanavia and the Netherlands for further details.

Muslims have no respect for the host culture and are looking to takeover the world.

She was simply stating the obvious. Unfortunately, she stated it to a SIMPLE-MINDED LAMESTREAM MEDIA IDIOT.

I thought this woman was a plant.
No one was at the rally to protest
jihad. It’s good they removed
that part of the woman’s comments.

Even if they edited and/or cherry picked it -- I don't care! I am worried, too.

And I'm especially worried for Rifqa Barry.

I don't want her killed as an apostate for converting to Christianity from Islam. It looks like are PC culture via the drive by media and the courts are trying to do just that. Maybe they're doing it to flip the bird to Christianity. I wouldn't be suprised.

They need to have their license pulled if they are doing creative editing that endangers real Americans (Democrats are NOT Americans) and our landmarks.
