Michael Chapman at our sister site CNSNews.com reported that Hollywood director Rob Reiner unleashed another anti-Tea Party rant in an interview with Larry King. He compared the Tea Party to the terrorist group Hamas, because apparently both groups are extreme and cannot be negotiated with, and the only solution is to make them go away or eliminate them.
In Israel, [Y]ou cant negotiate with that, you have to say either Hamas goes away and the Palestinian authority takes over all that region and deal with some kind of honest broker here, and create the two-state solution, said Reiner.
The Palestinians turned down the ability to have their own state in 1948 when Israel was formed, so clearly, Hamas, and again, the virulent faction of a, really, uh, group can control everything, said the Academy Award nominee.
Reiner continued, You look at the Congress right now in the United States, youve got a strong Tea Party group controlling the whole country, because they have a gridlock, they have a gridlock, stranglehold on Boehner. Boehner cant make a move, and so for that reason, nothing gets brought up in the Congress.
So anytime youre dealing with an extreme group, you cannot negotiate with them, and they way to do it is to eliminate it, said Reiner. With the Tea Party, you have to go through a political thing, you have to wait till 2020 to redistrict, but, uh, that is really tough stuff.
A few days before the 2010 midterm elections, Reiner compared the Tea Party to Hitler on Bill Mahers HBO show: "My fear is that the Tea Party gets a charismatic leader, because all they're selling is fear and anger and that's all Hitler sold. 'Im angry and Im frightened and you should hate that guy over there.'
And the terrorist deeds of the Tea Party, Meathead er Rob Reiner? Have they slaughtered innocents. Attacked a foreign government? Killed anybody? No. So what have they done? Oh, they got in the way of King Barack implementing his socialist agenda? Okay, I guess that makes them terrorists. (snicker)
Chill out, Ron. You’re sounding a bit over the top to the extreme yourself. Your rantings don’t sound much like reaching across the aisle.
Well, on the bright side, at least he’s making a strong statement against Hamas . . . . .
Lol
Laura Petrie.....early stirring of gonadal effervescence
A warm fuzzy feeling which gained real traction with Samantha Stephens a few years later...in color too eventually..
And he was a snappy dresser...
Dead from the neck up
Deadhead and Lard Ass!
Someone commented, earlier, about the difference between the Bundy Ranch protesters and the Ferguson protesters. How the *aftermath* is so strikingly different.
Similar to the TEA Party protests vs the SEIU “Paid” protests. Spotless grounds vs trash (from their free, boxed lunches, preprinted signs etc.), everywhere.
I have seen several TV specials on Heydrich, and how his POS a$$ assumed room temperature. If I remember right, that is the exact corner where they done him in. I think the Germans killed hundreds over it, so I will leave the discussion on whether it was worth it or not, for another day.
Yipes!
I love that!
Felt secure, or maybe more accurately, arrogantly untouchable .
After Archie found a box of poems Mike had written to Gloria, he said he was “a regular Edgar Allen Pollack.”
Yeah. You’d think he’d know better.
Blame that clogged assh*le Harry Reid, liberal mormon moron Democrat. He has let over 230 bills passed by the House sit on his desk without action.
LOL! Good line.
Great minds think alike. ;)
Cheers
The GOPE finds his thoughts insightful and hopeful.
Still a meathead 40 yrs. later just like the GOPE.
