Why does Don Lemon on CNN work so hard to protect... |
|
the republiCONS? Every time a Dem comes on he always ask leading questions and insinuates that they should give in to the republicons.
Earlier when the republiCONS were on he hardly questioned their motives and agreed with Mitch McConnell he said that Mitch McConnell said Obama needs to be in the game or should be making the deal and he ended with how much he agreed with that. Is he a log cabin republiCON.

2. Anderson Cooper is wayy worse |
|
Every time the right wing does something boneheaded, Cooper insists the Dems are doing it too.
They have lost site of what 'News' is.

18. Anderson Cooper actually donates to the Republican party. |
|
Didn't Olbermann get canned for doing the same thing?

6. Management has told them all to kiss Republican hiney |
|
so they can preserve their access to that much insanity.
Personally, I think they'd be doing a great public service if they'd ask tough questions, lose that access, and delegitimize the anti American fuckwits, although I'm sure some of them would still want their kissers all over the airwaves no matter how they're abused.

8. I saw him ask Sen. Ben Cardin |
|
something like: "Isn't what the Tea Party has done pretty impressive? Don't they deserve respect for backing the Democrats and Republicans into a corner..."
Some people naively respect raw power no matter how or for what cause it is wielded. I think some Germans made that mistake in the 1930s.

though I haven't been watching today so I can't say how he has been covering the poltical "theater" that's going on. I know that usually he's a real pro.

11. Because he has a mortgage. |

and a credit rating to protect. No job, no mortgage payment.
Nice second effort to bring his sexuality into it.
Gay people becoming out and visible in the mainstream of society means they don't have to obey, or dummy up, when YOU snap your fingers. You will find some disagree with you and DON'T ask permission. Get used to it.

17. If he was straight would you have brought his sexuality into it? |
|
Gay people don't automatically have to agree with you. Black people don't have to automatically agree with you.
Keep your biased shit to yourself from now on.

12. After the GOP voted to raise the debt ceiling my elderly mother said to me "Now I get my SS check." |
|
She had been watching CNN all day.

14. He does what he is told. That is how you get your paycheck. |
|
If he asked the questions you wanted, he would be fired in a second and a new head would take his place.

16. both Anderson Cooper and Don Lemon try too hard to try to prove they are not biased |
|
if they cover a story on some republican which is negative they find anything to cover on the dems just to try to make it seem like they aren't taking sides.
