Sounding more like MSNBC's Countdown with Keith Olbermann than impartial newscasts, ABC, CBS and NBC all led Wednesday night by legitimizing Democratic talking points meant to discredit critics of the just-passed health care bill. “Opposition to health care turns menacing,” ABC’s Diane Sawyer warned. CBS teased with audio clips -- “Baby-murdering scumbag,”“You are a dirtbag” and “I hope you die” -- as fill-in anchor Maggie Rodriguez cited “threats of violence against Democrats who voted for health care reform, even as public support for the plan is growing.”
On NBC, Brian Williams teased: “It's getting ugly as anger over health care reform erupts into some over-the-top rhetoric, including threats now against members of Congress.” He opened by declaring: “It can now be said that the debate over health care reform has gone too far. It's now veered into threats of violence.” Reporter Kelly O’Donnell relayed how “Democrats accuse Republicans of stirring a hostile mood” before Savannah Guthrie rued “Washington's epic 14-month battle over health care has exposed an angry side of America.” She recounted:
Wrapped around the brick that smashed the door of Democratic party headquarters in Rochester, New York, a note with the Barry Goldwater quote: ‘Extremism in defense of liberty is no vice.’ On Twitter, former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin told followers, ‘Don't retreat, reload.’ While an Alabama man advocated armed uprising....At a conservative Tea Party protest at the Capitol this weekend, some demonstrators hurled racially and sexually-charged insults at members of the Congress.
CBS’s Nancy Cordes dutifully reported “Democrats accuse their GOP colleagues of inciting such acts with inflammatory rhetoric” as “Democrats complain Sarah Palin is also using violent words and imagery. On Twitter, she urges conservatives: ‘Don't retreat. Instead, reload.’ And the Web site of her political action committee posts bull's-eyes on districts of vulnerable Democrats.”

The problem for RATs is that the majority of the country now agrees that the RATs are traitors. They’re not playing to an open-mindless crowd.
Their only allies now are the SEIU thugs, ACORN, and useful idiots. These groups don’t make up the majority of voting Americans in this country.
These traitors can play whatever games they want with their accomplices in the MSM. They won’t be changing our minds. We know who and what they are.
Let their games begin. They’re falling on deaf ears.
Who gives a damn what they say about anything. They’re proven liars and traitors.
But they never mention the SHOTS fired at Cantors Office (Jewish BTW). Or the filth ridden call to the other Repub WOMEN. OH no. Because the DUMS actually BELIEVE they DESERVE it.
If you scum politicians thought we would just lay down, you were mistaken.
You started this fight.
What was really shameless was the CNN story that led with the report that a congressional campaign headquarters had been hit by gunfire. They neglected to mention that it was a Republican headquarters.
Huh? Good little propogandists... aren't they
Fits obama and his minions to a tee.
My Democrat neighbor is convinced it is Democrat union thugs pretending to be Republicans doing the work of the Dems so they can blame Republicans. She was the last person I would have thought would have said that.
There are no Edward R. Murrows anymore...just a legion of parroting drama queens.
They succeeded during the 2006 and 2008 elections.
This will only peak the viewers’ curiosity.
People generally don’t like “Baby-murdering scumbag”s.
Ann Curry this AM incorrectly said a gas line “to the house” of a Congressman’s brother had been cut. It was a line to a frikkin’ BBQ grill, was it not?
by gunfire. They neglected to mention that it was a Republican headquarters.

Well, they came out with a ‘disclaimer’ on that, saying it was just a stray bullet that had a downward trajectory, so they are saying it was nothing but a shot fired in the air and ‘the bullet had to come down somewhere’.
THE SARCASTIC REMARK AT THE END IS MINE, but guarantee it has probably been used in an ‘official type report’.
What with the MSM behind them, the useful idiots on MSNBC, CNN etc, the Libs have been able to take the high ground on this issue, naturally blaming us etc.
Where was all this rhetoric when “THE ONE” told his ‘faithful’ to ‘get in our face’ back during the campaign (BEFORE the election—I know, he is still campaigning).
And just today he basically told the “R’s” to “Bring it on” when it comes to the November elections.
Wasn’t G Bush labeled an OUT OF CONTROL COWBOY when he told the ‘Terrorists’ to “Bring it on”????
Bingo. I have a friend who voted for bambi and gets all his news from the fascists and he is now 100 percent anti bambi anti odorkocare. Its a new ballgame now, the MSM will be showing their bias clearly to all.
Is this true?
“Sounding more like MSNBC’s Countdown with Keith Olbermann than impartial newscasts, ABC, CBS and NBC all led Wednesday night by legitimizing Democratic talking points”
Is this Obama’s “Reichstag Fire”?
Somebody here once showed a collage of all the “Bush-Hitler” crap we put up with for eight years. Does anyone have the URL of the image (or any similar one) so I direct my libtard friends to it?
History tells us that those who are promoting violence will not remain exempt from violence. The propaganda press is playing a very dangerous game. But I think they’re too stupid to realize it.
Did they forget?.......
“If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun,” -Senator Obama
