Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake offered up regrets on “Meet The Press” Sunday for saying space was given to protesters in Baltimore who “wished to destroy.”

Rawlings-Blake told host Chuck Todd that she “certainly used the wrong phrase,” of which she received roundabout criticism as the riots escalated Monday.

“My bad for saying something that the media still twisted.”

She won’t get fired. The city deserves the moronette. I’m surprised she’s not in President Valerie Jarrett’s cabinet already.

It is not the “word”, it was the Order
to stand down, to encourage mayhem, assualts
and batteries, and property destruction.

It is that it was an Order by the corrupt,
for the corrupt, and THAT ... is conspiracy.

NO she didn’t. She got caught because she forgot she was talking to more people that the black rioters. That’s all. Got caught now and had to walk it back, because she finally realized her ‘constituency’ don’t really give her the campaign cash to run.

It rolled off of her tongue like velvet. She meant it then, she means it now.

All those business owners whose livelihoods were destroyed should get CVS to lead a class action suit for them. And sue the pants off that stupid mayor.

Every picture of her henceforth should have the caption ‘it’s only property’.

Reportedly the mayor was on the phone with the WH when the stand down order was given. WH of course wants riots, burning, looting. They are happy.

This WH seems to be good at “stand down” orders and let the rioting commence....even when an ambassador’s life is at stake.

I turned off FOX and all their ridiculous coverage, especially Geraldo!, I refuse to help the ratings of this rioting for the cameras. Have to wonder if no cameras showed up how long the rioting would last.

She was recently promoted to Secretary of the DNC, a position of significant party power.

Rawlings-Blake told host Chuck Todd that she “certainly used the wrong phrase,”

Then why did she accuse the media of "twisting" her words? And why is she not apologizing for not owning up to what she accused?

Silly us.

Republicans, not Democrats, get ravaged by errors like this in the media, labeled for the rest of their career.

It’s the RULES!

She was told by the White House what to do. They didn’t expect her to be stupid enough to actually say it.

I don't even get Fox anymore. I had my Direct TV disconnected. It's great. I am $95 a month richer and free from it all.

This is all going according to plan.

Ayers and the rest of the radicals from the time (and remember 0 was fermented by this group) wanted a race war to kick start the revolution.

Now, ofcourse, if you told me ten years ago they hadn't updated the plan, I would have laughed and said, "Yeah good luck pulling that off with 10% of the population". But, here there are and here it is--
