Where are the calls for Breitbart's and Faux Noises' heads on a pike? |
|
I woke up this morning to Joe Scarboro doing backflips to blame Barack Obama for Breitbart's and Faux Noises' fraud. It's hardly the first example of this, as Rachel pointed out last night. "Conservatives" do violence to the truth and cause tremendous damage and they will keep doing this as long as WE, THE PEOPLE sit back and let them do it.
I'm sick of it. I'm sick of their smears. I'm sick of their swiftboat liars. I'm sick of Sean Hannity, Glenn Beck, and Rush Limbaugh.
They have no First Amendment right to disinform and lie. They are abusing our airwaves and our good nature. If they can't have a relationship with the truth they shouldn't be allowed the privilege of having their forums.
I see Vilsack and the Obama administration, victims of this fraud, apologizing and offering restitution to Shirley Sharrod. Where is Breitbart's apology? Where is Faux Noise's apology?
I paused breifly on Faux Noise last night and I see Dick Morris' oily face gleaming, saying something about how he has so much more dirt on Shirley Sharrod and how the Obama administration now owns this "tar baby".
These people have no right to do this crap. None. Zero.

2. The friggin' M4M reports of this ... |
|
don't even mention Faux or Breitfart. It's amazing - these "news" reports talk about this Sherrod tale like it dropped out of the sky. No mention of the illicit, race-baiting, mendacious perpretrators AT ALL.

Their claims to that effect are just another example of their many frauds.
These people and their disinformation are dangerous and we need to tell them we aren't going to put up with this tabloid crap any more.

8. Subdivision, this is funny but I'm sorry. . . |
|
I'm not in a laughing mood about the lies and the frauds.
These people are trying to roll back civil rights, for fuck's sake.

Sometimes we gotta laugh to keep from crying.

6. K&R #1 and add a new Eternal (unanswerable) Question to the list |
|
Edited on Thu Jul-22-10 09:42 AM by UTUSN
Eternal/unanswerable questions are those that confound our understanding. For example, Why do a few minority members become traitors to their home group and become Rethugs?!1 And, Can a DECENT human be a Rethug?!1
Well, I K&R-ed this thread and the result was still zero, meaning that it has been UnreKKKed, the recurring/unanswerable question being, Why are threads that are perfectly appropriate for discussion or agreement in a forum for Democratic members continually UnReKKKed?!1 The possibilities that come to mind are: 1) Maliciousness. 2) Disruption, presumably by wingnuts. 3) Personal vendetta.
On Edit: Well, glory to Zeus, while I was composing my peeve, the Recs went up to 4. This means the one or two negatives have been broken.

14. If it were me, I'd have the petition for defamation and tortious interference filed |
|
And summons placed with the process server.

11. Sorry, Even Among Liberals, We Give Republicans and Right Wingers A Free Pass, Blame Our Allies |
|
Heck, even Mr. Oil Drilling, Bobby Jindal, was praised for his actions following the BP oil disaster, when the truth is that he was the sponsor of the 2006 DOER Act that lead to the disaster.

16. I feel like this was a fraud on the public--possible criminal charges? |
|
I feel like America was the victim of hate crime. I am still very angry about this.

It's time for a severe backlash.
