CNN reporter Don Lemon had some shockingly revealing things to say when asked about the criticism the President has received. He shared with his audience that journalists actually take into account his race before criticizing his policies.

However, as a fellow Black homosexual with a cushy affirmative action job, it’s not really necessary, right, Don?

[Sacajaweau]

Why not weigh how much you should criticize citizens for the belief that “gay” is another name for perversion. In other words, we’re not homophobes...there is no such thing...you made it up.

[T-Bird45]

Coulda knocked me over with a feather...

THE REAL DEAL:

[canuck_conservative]

Did they take Bush’s race into account before criticising his policies?

Of course not.

So what we have here, then, is good ol’ fashioned racial discrimination, different treatment for blacks and whites. And Big Leftist Media wonders why they get no respect.

[dainbramaged]

Donny, you are not a “journalist” - you are a clown.

[drypowder]

if skin color trumps truth in the MSM, then could there be a better reason to never again allow a black president?

[lesko]

Oh geez Don, you poor kid. Grow some balls.

What happened to “report the facts”
Who, what, where, when, why
I learnt that in third grade

[Verginius Rufus]

OK, if you weigh 200 pounds, you can criticize the President 200 times, but if you weigh only 160, you can only criticize him 160 times?

[andyk]

Whoa, did he really start off by saying Obama has been criticized more than other presidents?

[DeFault User]

As a journOlist, you should never criticize the president.

[Cementjungle]

What "criticism"????

Did some journolist forget to begin his broadcast with the required "All hail Obama" or something?

[null and void]

Thank you,

Captain 'O'blivious...

[ozzymandus]

What would Lemon know about being a journalist?

[PATRIOT1876]

‘As A Journalist, You Weigh How Much You Should Criticize The President’ unless it's George Bush. Then you could make any slander, every false innuendo, and unleash all your hatred because he's not socialist enough for you.

It's a shame that so many people calling themselves journalists are so strong in their support of anti-Free speech.

[Old Sarge]

CNN is on the government payroll. They are paid taxpayer dollars to spike or manipulate the news at the discretion of their paymasters.

CNN, NPR and PBS are government news organs. I will never trust them again.

[SaxxonWoods]

If Lemon wasn’t a racist he would not feel the need to avoid criticizing black people.

All people would be equal in his eyes.

[PATRIOT1876]

*OK, if you weigh 200 pounds, you can criticize the President 200 times, but if you weigh only 160, you can only criticize him 160 times?*

If we start using metric more, does that mean that we can multiply our weight by 2,2 or do we have to criticize less and multiply by 0.45?

Does that change with barometric pressure or elevation?
