If you are going to call someone racist, you’d better have your facts straight.
If you are going to call someone a bigot, you’d better have your facts straight.
If you are going to claim moral superiority over a man, you’d better have your facts straight.
Napolitano showed a reckless disregard for the facts before he wrote this screed.
If I were Bundy, I’d sue him for libel. This is such an egregious mischaracterization of what Bundy said, that I am pretty sure he could prevail in a libel suit.
I am sick to death of the media playing the race card. And when previously respectable conservatives like Hannity and Napolitano do it, it is really disconcerting.
Hannity and Napolitano are people that I tune in to listen to. Not always, but they’ve been respectfully truthful about so many things that I give them a fair hearing.
I’m seriously disappointed with both on the Bundy case. If Napolitano reads legal text as recklessly as he failed to review Bundy’s actual words, then he must go to the stack that Reagan spoke of “trust but verify.”
Ann Coulter made it all the way to “don’t trust, verify”. This craven boot-licking for media approval might just land Napolitano in “don’t trust, verify” land along with mood-swing-Annie.
