Just imagine how the media would have been all over this if it had been a tea party gathering? Since it was a leftist gathering, there's nothing to see here folks.

 
It's so awesome, isn't it? Ex hippies, flashbacks of acid and fire hoses, trippin grannies and geezers whose true colors are white sheets.
 
"the left" calls for the lynching...

So for you does that mean all liberals in America?

He was saying that if any one of those statements had been uttered at a tea party rally the media would be all over it like stink on ****.

He has a point, being that the media has been pushing accusations of racism and hatred against the tea party without any such statements being made at all.

Shows a definite bias.

Ok...

So youre saying that all liberals indirectly support this?

And he would be the first to bitch about some one making the claim that Tea Partiers are racist...

By the way, the guy in the video is an asshole, but that is about as much of a point as can be made.

Not at all... Just the liberals who don't denounce groups like this.

If that happens to be the overwhelming majority of liberals... Oh well.

is this on FOX?
 
As I said in another thread when Conservative posted this - there is no excuse for the people on this video advocating violence. They are idiots.

I do wonder how many others they had to through to find these nuts.
 
It just seems like you have some sort of victim mentality Grim...

Must be awful being persecuted for you beliefs all the time...

I mean, one Sherrif in Tuscon and "CONSERVATIVES ARE UNDER ATTACK!!!!!!"

Where do you get such an idea? Conservatives have always been under attack from the left. The difference is, the left has the help of the main stream media, that's why groups like this are ignored, while groups like the tea party, who have never hurt a fly or made threats, get persecuted by the media.

It's no complex pal... It's just the way things are. I accepted this reality long ago, but it still doesn't make it right.

But you also claim that fox news had the highest ratings...

Therefore that would make fox mainstream...
 
I have to say out of the few protestors or whatever they were that he interviewed some of them sucked. I doubt the represented the majority though that attended the rally.

It'd be nice of people gave the T party this kind of the benefit of the doubt.

Let's just say that Fox did report this on Special Report.

That would mean maybe 3 million people hear about it... Of course, the 20 - 30 million others who get their news from NBC, CBS, ABC, PBS and CNN are all clueless. Then of course there's the rest of the people who get their news from newspapers and other sources...

Good job... Thanks for bringing that up.

This is bull****. It wasn't just "one sheriff". It was nearly every left wing pundit out there, not to mention some here.

I am always careful about saying stuff I just see clips of and wasn't there in person. And whenever I talk about things at the Tea Parties I tend to start with At the Tea Party rallies I was at... in hope that the reader will pick up on the fact I am talking about the few that I have personally been to and not the movement as a whole.

Jesus Christ, do you really want a media that does nothing but hunt down stupid youtube videos that make the other side look bad?

Grow up and quit whining.

excellent point. Since only 3 million people watch FOX from you own admission, that is really small potatoes and is only a pimple on the ass of the larger media.

Because you know what, this isn't important news. What some idiot shouts at a camera at some rally has no real effect on people, and shouldn't be newsworthy.
