I don’t begrudge Glenn Beck or any other television personality for wanting high ratings. The problem is that Glenn Beck has spent at least the past year trying to project the image that he’s above it all. When he apologized to his viewers last night he was doing so in order to protect that image from the charade that he just aired.
Beck has on more than one occasion stated that the Tea Party is not a Republican or Conservative movement, but rather an Independent movement. Really now! Does he mean the same independents who voted for Obama in 2008? The fact of the matter is that the Tea Party movement is a Conservative movement, and the vast majority of its members are in fact members of the Republican Party.
Not wanting to be left out, Meghan McCain joined the rest of the geniuses in blasting the Tea Party and Sarah Palin.
Olbermann is truly the poster boy for the hateful left. I think it’s safe to say that he and his ilk would love to put certain people into political reeducation camps and gulags if they had the total power that they so crave.
Newsflash!!! We already have a fairness doctrine in place on most radio programs. It’s called the network news break.
While flipping through the channels today, I briefly stopped on one of the local network news affiliates. The reporter was in shopping mall parking lot doing the same ole predictable holiday season story. But this time with a slight twist. The moron went up to a couple to ask the usual ‘are you going to spend more or less on this year’s holiday shopping as opposed to last year.’
As it turns out, the Sgt. Hunley story was also falsely reported. This story however, took a lot longer to correct than the rest of the misreporting. It took seven days for the media to finally get it right. The New York Times reported in its November12th issue that Sgt. Hunley wasn’t the police officer who stopped Hasan’s rampage. In fact, Sgt. Hunley didn’t even get off a shot! The police officer who finally put an end to the mass murder was Sgt. Mark Todd.
You see, yesterday they tried to explain excuse Hasan’s murderous rampage by claiming that he suffered from Post-Traumatic-Stress-Disorder. There was only one small problem; Hasan has never been deployed overseas, and he has never been in a war zone. (Baltimore doesn’t count)
