MSNBC to Cover Pulled Free Republic Thread on Monday's David Shuster Show
Twitter and Daily Kos | Saturday, July 11, 2009 | Kristinn

Posted on 07/11/2009 4:53:55 PM PDT by kristinn

The Daily Kos has a post up quoting MSNBC personality David Shuster's Twitter page stating his show will be covering the controversy over Free Republic and comments about Malia Obama:

@mikelord @thejoshuablog. We will cover this monday: http://bit.ly/3pqS7M. But follow @joetrippi for what can be done on-line. about 2 hours ago from web

The embedded link goes to the Vancouver Sun hit piece posted earlier to FR

Over at Twitter, the leftists are all in a hypocritical lather over FR.

David Shuster is on sometime mid-afternoon East Coast time Monday-Friday.

You don’t get out much. It’s regular fare over at the Leftwingtard boards to refer to the Palin family as “Alaskan Hillbillies”.

It’s quite possible. Unfortunately, these are the pitfalls associated with online message boards. It’s nearly impossible to correlate one poster with another with any real certainty.

We’ve always known they were here, obviously - they practically flooded the place prior to the election. I think now they’re becoming more and more obvious and I’ve long suspected that there are “sleepers” who registered long ago for whatever reason and are now abusing their perceived seniority.

No but in the 0media world, we’re the bad guys.
It’s that Alinsky thing again.

Most people are aware of their tactics now.

Have you heard? More people are identifying themselves as conservative now.

People here are much better than that.

There's a new and original comment. Rip Van Winkle?

I say to David Shuster and Keith Olbermann, bring it on. Many of us here on freerepublic are not a bunch of racist and bigot. Many of us just happen to have a different point of view then PMSNBC. As for Barrack Obama, he shouldn't be in office either, we should call him Unqualified-in-Chief. So here is the message for PMSNBC: Tell your buddy Barrack Obama show his birth certificate or get lost. If you want to cover freerepublic and what being post on this website, then bring it on.

How long have you been here? Do you remember what FR was like back in, say, 1998? (Have you gotten that far in my history yet?) Do you know what it’s like to see a great site crumble before your eyes? Do you know what it’s like to care enough to try to fix it?

Every thread about trivialities (”OMG! The Obamas put a swingset on the WH lawn! How classless!... PS - does it have monkeybars? LOL”) and outright falsehoods and hateful, racist comments is yet another demerit against this site that takes it further away from true conservatism. Some of us care enough to push back against that. I’ve nearly given up and many times over the past 6 months or so I have contemplated just walking away, and I still may do that (do I hear cheers?) but I thought I’d give it the ol’ college try and try to keep this site on a more productive path. If it’s too late, and this is how you all like it now, more power to ya. But it will get us nowhere electorally or politically and I hope you realize that.

What desperate bitch Sally !Quinn is!

The msm/dbm can't get a solid thing wrong of consequence with Palin so they cry baby about every little tiny detail they can make up like going after a bunch of made up misdeeds that have little if anything to do with Sarah's values. Just shows how desperate the queen of the drive-bys truly is.

Agreed. We MUST fight back from every turret we can man .. and it’s also got to be local. What a week for both Rush and Glenn to be gone.

~~~~

The comments on Quinn’s article about Palin’s resignation are mixed,

http://newsweek.washingtonpost.com/onfaith/panelists/sally_quinn/2009/07/palins_peculiar_family_values.html

but some are really scathing.

~~~

For Sally Quinn to be lecturing anyone on marital morality is just ridiculous. Where was her morality when she started having an affair with Ben Bradlee, then married with two children? Was the pain he caused his family “incalculable?” Did she at the time chastise him for betraying his family, as she chastises Ensign, Sanford, Clinton and Spitzer?

As a person of faith (supposedly), she might want to read that bit in the New Testament about “Let him who is without sin among you throw the first stone.” That one certainly would not be Ms. Quinn.

~~~~

Sally, Sally, Sally. You’ve got yourself tied up in a snit and can’t loosen the knot. Please, Sally, Tell me, what is it about Sarah Palin that make you liberals come unglued, unhinged, rabid, foaming at the mouth, etc., etc.?

~~~~

Dearest Sally-Are you not delighted that you do not have to pass any sort of integrity test, ie a family values test, before tearing apart, in print, another’s family values.

For example, Sally, methinks you and most would immediately kill a little baby growing in your womb if it were less than perfect and you knew it. So it is HARD to understand why someone like Sarah would consider then decide to keep and love her little one.

I sense a deep jealously on liberal women’s part regarding Sarah.

What is this jealously about? That Sarah is accomplished as a Governor ?(I am sure you have written about the amazing projects she has accomplished for her State in just over 2 years, right?)

Or is the jealousy stemming from the fact that Sarah is beautiful, bright, draws huge crowds because she is the real deal and speaks to the heart?

Or,Sally, is it more than jealousy, is it HATRED because Sarah is about everything you are not.

She does not appear to be cynical, elitist, snobbish, smallish in world outlook, un-patriotic and definitely not cruel. Liberals seem to have the big pile when it comes to cruelty.

Sarah is a force for good, Sally. Live with it. I am going to enjoy the show and Thank God there are people with Sarah’s depth and heart out here in America causing folks like you heartburn.

~~~

Sally Quinn seduced her boss and broke up his second marriage. They had a son who has special needs, but Ms. Quinn didn’t notice until he was 14. She is a pot attempting to call the kettle a kettle of color. Put a sock in it, you old blue blood elitist windbag.

My ancestors came over in 1620 as well; but I think Sarah Palin is a genuine person who connects to the vast majority of people who matter in this country. Just because you have a platform doesn’t give you the right to look down on others, oh tolerant liberal. And certainly not if the topic is “faith.”

Most of the racial and other stupid comments on here don’t come from legitimate FReepers. There are quite a few posers on here on an obvious mission to make the entire group look bad. These frauds are probably left-wing low lives.

Say what?

I didn’t say ALL of these types of comments are made by leftists posing as FReepers. Many are made by people who are simply too dumb to be members of this site. People who don’t really have an intelligent concept of politics. In any case, I would bet that there are LOT more people here who object strongly to such comments than LOL along with them. They just need to find the courage to say so openly.

Your complete and utter lack of understanding of human psychology is startling. I’m not sure why I find that surprising. Perhaps you should try to figure out why like-minded people discuss relatively unimportant topics and don’t mention them. (I believe the technical term is “small talk.”) You may also want to look up the term “gossip” as well its general relation to the objective truth of a matter.

Making a statement like “it doesn’t get us anywhere electorally or politically,” while true, is totally irrelevant. Nobody will campaign on the fact that they’ve put a swingset on the lawn. You don’t understand this because you’re too busy playing Message Board Cop (or whatever the hell you want to call yourself) to realize that you no longer fit in here. That’s fine, of course - we do support freedom of expression here at FR.
