The Hypocrisy...Is U N B E L I E V A B L E

[Firebrand Gary]

A few observances.

Tell me what the MSM would have done to President Obama for appointing a Muslim to the Supreme Court? Chris Christie did it and the Tea Party and the entire Republican party was absolutely silent about it. Why did the MSM not call out the GOP for it glaring hypocrisy on this issue. Ground zero mosque was all but hung around President Obama's neck by Palin, Bachman, Romney and especially Newt. Yet not one debate has asked why Governor Christie received no criticism for appointing a muslim justice in New Jersey?

Why have these debates and the MSM in general given a free pass to the fake GOP presidential candidates? Half of these jerks are not even running campaigns. No ground staff, no organizations, pollsters, etc. They are clearly there to fill up debate seats.

Please add to the list, I am going to email it to all of our favorite commentators today.

1. Republican is just another way to say hypocrite

[lunatica]

2. Yup. Them's the facts.

The teabaggeratti love Christy.

3. Newt Gingrich US Rep from GA-06 Depository Institutions Deregulation and Monetary Control Act 1980

Debate moderaters? Media?

[Firebrand Gary]

4. Newt Gingrich GA-06 Garn–St. Germain Depository Institutions Act of 1982

Newspapers? Media? Anybody?

[Firebrand Gary]

6. Newt Gingrich GA-06 Gramm–Leach–Bliley Act of 1999

Really?

5. They are much better at the game than we are...

Of course that means we think about policy, productivity and how to better the country while they are focused on nothing more than winning elections...

17. Yes, Democrats want to insist on using Marquis of Queensbury rules in the game

while Republicans employ street fighting tactics.

While Democrats nobly comfort themselves on how they lost fair and square, Republicans laugh because they don't give a shit about fair and square--winning is the only thing that counts for them, anything that gives them more power.

7. Sadly, the hypocrisy is routine, and expected. n/t

[Firebrand Gary]

15. Then we should do a better job of making noise.

[babylonsister]

8. He shouldn't be criticized for appointing a Muslim, but

you're right, there is such a double standard. Maybe more Dems need to make noise and point out the hypocrisy. Seems noisy people get more air time.

[Firebrand Gary]

13. I agree, he should be praised for it. Christie appoints a Muslim, no news. NY builds a mosque, Obama

is a terrorist sympathizer as the media reports it for two strait weeks with headlines in every major newspaper.

9. Here is Byron Dorgan advising against what Gingrich voted for. Media for debate consideration.

10. Herman Cain wants to raise taxes! Where is Grover and his little fucking paper pledge?

Media? Really?

999 Will raise taxes on 99% of Americans SO WHERE IS THE OUTRAGE FROM THE GOD DAMN TEA PARTY OVER RAISING TAXES???

[Firebrand Gary]

11. Sorry my friends, I am HOT over this.

For three years we have listened to the media legitimize the Tea Party and bastardize the Obama administration, where is the outrage?

[pintobean]

12. I don't understand why that would come up at a presidential debate.

Christie isn't running. :shrug:

[Firebrand Gary]

14. The double standard is a question for the debates. Along with the false candidates.

[Firebrand Gary]

16. FYI I asked two questions, the first referred to Christie, the second to debates.

18. he actually did get shit from hard-core haters

here's video of him defending himself and his appointee:

[Firebrand Gary]

19. Highlights my point about the media.

I saw him defend his appointee as well, but the media did not trash him for weeks on end the way they did the President for GZ Mosque of which the President HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH.

[Enthusiast]

20. The media is

completely unfair. <understatement alert> The playing field is unequal.

[hifiguy]

22. Much to Christie's credit

he basically said that the person was qualified and the haters could kiss his ass. Too bad no Dems seem to understand that slapping down idiots is the best way to deal with them.

21. "Half of These Jerks...

are not even running campaigns. No ground staff, no organizations, pollsters, etc."

Is that right? That is unbelievable. Do Perry, Bachmann, or Cain fall into that category?
