Geraldo Rivera: Town Hall Death Threat 'Ironically Came From a Hard-core Liberal'
Newsbusters ^ | 1/16/11 | Noel Sheppard

Posted on 01/16/2011 4:10:49 AM PST by markomalley

On the evening of the tragic shootings in Tucson, Fox News's Geraldo Rivera, like so many other liberal media members, went out of his way to connect the event to the Tea Party.

Seven days later, the host of "Geraldo at Large" told his viewers, "There was a very public death threat today in Tucson that prompted police action. Ironically, it came from a hard-core liberal" (video follows with transcript and commentary):

There is no irony in a liberal being threatening. It’s what they do.

There is poetic justice in Geraldo’s faux pas.

Nothing ironic about it. The left actively encourages and enables psychosis.

I see that all our complaints to Roger Ailes about Whorealdo did a lot of good.

The real irony is Geraldo thinking it ironic that a liberal was making the death threats. I mean...that’s a real knee slapper.

An Obamabot BIT OFF a TEA Partier’s finger yet Geraldo still finds the threat ironic. I’m sensing a disconnect.

Not ironic; expected and predictable.

Exactly, and I’m surprised Geraldo didn’t say it first.

Yep....Geraldo: It’s not what you say, it’s what you do.
Liberals “preach” non-violence but it’s always liberals who riot and burn down their own neighborhods (VERY stupid liberals), liberals who bite off fingers, liberals who attack vendors outside political events..just to site a few examples. And now liberals who make death threats while being filmed for a national news program.

Talk about stupid

Geraldo got “Moronic” and “Ironic” confused.

Tell it like it is Mark. This has been going on since the Clinton era begin.I predict the only way you see and hear any of this on the MSM will be to place blame somewhere else or to try and give this liberal idiot and excuse. You wont see Chriisy Matthews,Amanpour,Schultz,Olberman or any of their ilk running it for what they represent.

Jerry Rivers is shocked something happened outside his liberal media template ?

Wake up Jerry, a large part of the hard left is seriously deranged and dangerous

After suffering another hysterical event with Shemp Smith and Whorealdo, we have given up on Fox News for the present. They need up upgrade their on-air personnel by deleting a number of their predictable, tired personalities.

Let me track this- the shooter was a loony lefty—and the Fuller guy is a looney lefty— and the mere politicians who want to destroy the Constitution and Bill of Rights over this are -for the most part “progressives” but even the well intentioned Republicrats seem disassociated with the people.
Yep seems like when we allowed Obama get elected the nuts been let out of the nuthouse.
