CNN anchor blames vets for Baltimore's rioting, apologizes
New York Daily News ^ | April 29, 2015 | NINA GOLGOWSKI

CNN's Brooke Baldwin is hoping to return to the good graces of U.S. veterans with an apology after suggesting that some of them are to blame for Baltimore's rioting.

The cable news anchor issued a humbling on-air mea culpa Wednesday after making her incriminating statement the day before on live TV but without offering a single scrap of evidence to support such a claim.

"A lot of these young people, and I love our nation's veterans, but some of them are coming back from war, they don't know the communities, and they're ready to do battle," she told Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-Md.).

Between the young Democrats urinating on flags in Panama City and this, the Obamaite Democrats are getting bolder and bolder in their trashing of veterans.

I bet this is just a trial run, to see how much blowback they get. If she isn't fired, it'll be open season on veterans, most of whom won't be crippled like the Wounded Warriors in Panama City.

Some here find her attractive. I find abject stupidity to be incredibly unattractive.

To each his own.

I love our nation's veterans, but ...

Evidently, “Dumb Blonde” is NOT a stereotype.

They are afraid of our vets. And rightly so.

She said she was just repeating something she heard ... probably from a DHS honcho who was only one illogical step from blaming the tea party.

Are those young guys driving crazy to be seen by the Veterans or the Press?

I’m a dog and find just about any women of a certain age who breathes attractive and i don’t find her attractive at all.
But she’s right about the veterans. Always taking. Having a free vacation in Iraq, the tourist destination of the rich and famous, stopping off in that cutting edge arena full of night life, Afghanistan, and now flying missions over God knows what exotic and tantalizing country of the day in the Mideast.
IMMENSE s/
What an idiot.

She gave a rather strange ‘apology’ on the air while never saying exactly what she was apologizing for. It was sort of a ‘one size fits all ocassions fauxpology popular with Libs.” Not an easy stunt to pull off.

She must have pulled the talking points list for next week. Don’t worry though, vets, Christians, conservatives and gun owners will be blamed for something else soon.

This woman has to be incredibly dumb.

The thugs who are rioting could never pass the IQ exam to be eligible for the military.

Very true. But I can sleep tonight because my once liberal 23 year old niece just called the rioters animals.
MLK’s dream is dead. His granddaughter said as much.

Somebody should tell this stupid c#nt that if it were veterans doing the violence, there wouldn’t be any Baltimore left.
