MEDIA FRAUD– More Proof That the Leftist Media Lied About Racist Attacks On Black Reps While They Ignored Vulgar Attacks By Lib Politicians
Posted by Jim Hoft on Tuesday, March 23, 2010, 11:23 PM
On Saturday the leftist media reported on a horrible story from their sources at the anti-military Jew-hating conservative-hating Huffington Post. The media claimed that members of the Congressional Black Caucus were called n*ggers and spat on by tea party protesters as they walked from the Longworth office building to the Rayburn office building. At least one report said that it was “a chorus” of racist hatred. Reporters from ABC, CBS, CNN, FOX News, (including Bill O’Reilly), MSNBC, etc. reported on this horrible story.
Unfortunately, it was a fake. They had no evidence… Nothing. It was totally made up.
In fact, a video was later released that proved that there was no “chorus” of racist hatred and no one screamed the n-word. It was all a lie.
Now here is more proof.
There were several cameras filming the democratic representatives as they walked to the Rayburn Office Building. And, the representatives had at least two cameras filming the entire event. (It was almost as if they were expecting something to happen?)
A black woman with the tea party crowd filmed the event.
Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. (D-IL) filmed the entire episode.
He found nothing.
Socialist Democrat Maxine Waters was with the representatives. The next day she went on TV and called the protesters “teabaggers.”
This man who was walking with the representatives also filmed the entire episode.
Obviously, there were no racist attacks on the Democratic Representatives on Saturday. Not one of these protesters, not one of these representatives, have any video proof that anything happened. But, that didn’t stop the media from promoting this bogus story.
Meanwhile, the media did miss several vulgar attacks by Democratic Politicians on the protesters. On Monday Rep. Maxine Waters called the protesters “teabaggers.” It wasn’t the first time. Jesse Jackson Sr. actually taunted tea party protesters and grabbed at their signs on Sunday night in Washington DC. And, on Monday, hateful Rep. Barney Frank (D-MA) said that Republicans and tea party protesters drive teens to suicide.
Of course, the state-run media ignored all of these awful attacks.
Brent Bozell from the Media Research Center released this statement following the latest leftist media antics.
“What an exercise in hypocrisy. Some of you in the left-wing so-called ‘news’ media have actively participated in insulting conservatives with vulgar ‘tea bagging’ jokes. You’ve done it on live national television, snickering at your own snarky gay sense of humor. And if you haven’t done that, you have been a coward, doing nothing to condemn your colleagues for their disgusting behavior.
“Don’t you dare give us any more lectures on civility. You hypocrites disgust me.”
Hypocrites and liars, Brent. Don’t forget that these leftists are liars.
UPDATE: Two new videos of the incident show no racial slurs.

Its shameful that instead of

FNC has already decided without any reporting
If FNC has any sense of shame, they’ll retract their implications and accusations against the teapartiers and show these pics over and over again to debunk the racist hatemongering by these whitehating thugs .

OFF TOPIC
http://www.kwtx.com/localnews/headlines/88903897.html
STEPHENVILLE [TX] March 23, 2010)-A controversial theatrical production depicting a homosexual Jesus Christ is set to open Saturday at Tarleton State University in Stephenville.
The play “Corpus Christi” is under the direction of Tarleton student John Jordan Ottee, who says he wants to offer a performance that portrays tolerance and unconditional love.
The play depicts Jesus with his 12 apostles living in the Texas town of the same name in the 1950s.
“Corpus Christi,” written by Terrence McNally, features a scene in which Jesus performs a marriage ceremony between two of the apostles.
Critics have denounced the play as blasphemous.
In preparation of the play the school administration is increasing security.
Tarleton State University Police Chief Justin Williams says Stephenville police officers will assist the department during the production.
The university is committed to solidarity during the controversy.
Tarleton President F. Dominic Dottavio said Monday the play would be staged because the school is committed to protecting and preserving freedom of thought, speech and expression.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Dallas Morning News has put lipstick on this pig. In an attempt to diminish the offense that the play is to Christians, they’ve written that the story depicts “a Christ-like figure.” http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/dn/religion/stories/032310dnmettsuplay.1d7c7e555.html
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Can you imagine the outcry if this play was about a gay MooHamHead, resurrected in 1950s Texas? The same libtarded punks who are currently defending this play would be denouncing it if it were about the prophet of Islam. With or without the help of the lefturded students, CAIR would have the play shut down before it was ever presented in front of an audience. PuffHo and MSNBC would report the story in Islam’s favor, shaming the college and its students. But since it insults Christ and is offensive to Christians, well, then, the libtards are okay with it, even if they are a little disappointed that it’s not Jews, instead, who are insulted and offended.
Opaobie commented:
Gee, I wonder how it would be received in Ottawa…
Sandy commented:
The looks on the faces of these African American Congressmen says it all. They were spoiling for a fight.
Christopher Kairnes commented:
It is no surprise to me and shouldn’t be to any of you that this whole episode went down the way it did. This is to create and image of all of us as unruly and racists. I know that most of you are some of the sweetest and kindest people I have ever met. Don’t let them get to you. Your not wrong and will win in the end. When those who fear the truth are confronted with reason and intellect, their reaction will always be one of anger self-pitty and shame and they will most likely be their most vicious.
Bill O’Reilly, I just don’t get. He should stick to running after judges and perverts. At least he was good at that. He should be ashamed. Ha journalist!
Opaobie commented:
We’ve all had a chance to vent, but “at the end of the day”, as the saying goes, we are faced with the sobering reality that these United States Congressional Representatives have disgraced themselves and their public offices by conspiring to commit a slanderous fraud against the American people. They should be asked why they did it. They won’t be.
K~Bob commented:
Excellent post, Jim. Everyone should film every minute. Someone needs to spec up a great portable kit anyone can put together for getting good audio with decent video at such events.
Cell-phones are better than nothing, but we need to do better. This isn’t 2006 anymore, and it IS war.
Ian Christopher commented:
Doesn’t anyone think that is possible that a few of the “several cameras” were just taking photographs?
LaFong commented:
Compare this incident to 1970: http://www.californiapioneers.com/NixonStoningbyPhilp.pdf
Now that was a serious case of protesters gone wild.
These congressmen obviously hoped to provoke something, failed and lied about it. Their leftwing liar (I repeat myself) fell for it and have as so often after a day or two of debunking covered themselves in discredit.
K~Bob commented:
Jim, I forgot to ask, and did not yet visit BigGovernment or BigJournalism, but will you make these available to Mr. Breitbart so he can demand retraction from these phony journalists?
He’s just gotten so good at that, and also gets on the teevee a lot.

I knew it was a lie when the representative who claimed he was spit on said he wouldn’t press charges. If anyone spit on anyone, they would have had someone arrested immediately.

In another comments section here, someone pointed out that law enforcement officers were standing there, looking on, when the alleged spitting was supposed to have taken place. Had it really happened, the officers would have arrested the spitter without any prompting necessary by the spittee because spitting on another person is, under law, assault due to the diseases that can be spread in that way.
Militant Conservative commented:
this is why the rep’s stay in D.C. You don’t like that everywhere else the “public” could be armed. Did you notice the armed AR-15 toting guards? Saw them on the FOX news. Tired of telling ya’ll to prepare.
sgi commented:
Mr. Hoft:
It’s late, I’m up sick with a very bad cold, and I may be dense, but I had to read your post twice to get the point.
Which is, that if indeed this swearing and spitting had happened, that someone would have produced a video because it is now clear from these still pictures that many people filmed this event, including members of the black caucus, who should produce it to prove that it happened. Alas, the media does not require proof of anything much these days, especially when it concerns accusations of racism against tea partiers.
Charges of racism are very serious and should never be repeated without proof. But they’re everywhere now. I am not prone to conspiracy theories at all, but there does seem to be a concerted effort on the net at least, to brand all tea partiers, conservatives, and Republicans as racists. On all the blogs to the right of progressives there are people taunting and harassing the owner of the blog and the regular commenters. It’s really quite bizarre.
By the way, where exactly did Barney Frank say he was when someone called him a bad word? For a clue, read tpm…I think they know, at least that’s the impression I got when I read their postings about the incident.
Anyway, good luck. I’m a reader from Canada, so I have no skin in this game, and a game it is. I’m also a former lefty, now a libertarian/conservative. The left, frankly, has gone batsh-t crazy. Years ago, being on the left meant something quite different than it does today. No one on the left wanted to deprive any one of their freedoms; in fact, we wanted more freedom, more freedom from authority, more freedom from government, from organized religion, even freedom to educate ourselves and our children.
Now it’s morphed into something quite ugly and vicious, monstrous actually, and stupid. I sometimes read the blogs on the left and I am horrified by what I read there. The hate is simply breath-taking. Not to say there isn’t some on the right, but it’s generally found on the extreme right. No, I’m talking about main-stream blogs/news sites like the Huffington Post and Think Progress. Both of which are nothing but propaganda.
Oh, and did I mention that they lie…a lot? And it’s so easy to prove but they count on their readers to take them at their word and not to question their authority. What has happened to children in the last decades that they have grown up to be nothing more than silly sheep?
It’s all very depressing.
Andreas K. commented:
Actually, racism and “extreme right” can’t really go together. Because, by definition, the “extreme right” is the opposite of the “extreme left”.
The extreme left is what?
Dictatorship, oppression, secret police, death camps, mass murder, and yes, racism (look at North Korea.)
The opposite of that can’t be exactly the same.
And well, Hitler, who is always called “extreme right”, wasn’t even right wing. That guy was so far left it’s not even remotely funny. That the Nazis were “right wing” is the biggest lie of the 20th century. And, this it the interesting point, the distinction of the Nazis being “right wing” happens the first time AFTER WW2.
Marx wrote that “inferior classes and races” must be wiped out.
Hitler took care of the races.
Lenin, Stalin and Mao took care of the classes.
Both sides belong to the same coin: socialism. The left wing.
If someone was “right wing” under the Nazis, it’s the military resistance in Germany. men like Stauffenberg, they were “right wing”.

you may have a situation of a draw – no proof it happened and none that it didn’t. when the msm and others find the teaparty guility by nothing more than wishful thinking on their part……..much like dan rather and the “absolute proof” that didn’t have to exist to exist. the teaparty “guilt” will live on as a talking point no matter how thoroughly charges are proven to be false. and besides how is it that one individual is symbolic of an entire group while another is just a nut case and does’nt represent another group? remember john mc cain’s rally when a charge was made that someone yelled “kill him” when hussain’s name was spoken? didn’t happen……

I still think he is trying to play both sides so he is left standing no matter which way things go. I can’t respect that.

It’s cute how you feel you have to give special mention that even Bill O’Reilly took the bait. It’s not like he’s otherwise credible. His current schtick is as supreme straddler of fences. Even prior to Obama’s inauguration, he’ll side with many if not most statist ideas. He’s as much of a control freak as the rest of the statists. Cuz, ya know, he’s looking out for the folks just like the 111th Congress and Obama are.
Claire Solt commented:
Charges of racism are what holds the black community together and gives “black leaders” their power. If many did not believe they would be persecuted, they would abandon the rat and roach motels of the inner city ghettos and head for the suburbs.
The Dems rely on the black vote to win. If blacks became tea partiers in any great numbers, Dems would be sunk. Hence their fear of the Tea Party and slander thereof.

O’reilly is just a tool. Cannot watch him anymore. I tried, last night, saw all the nonsense about how conservatives have to be respectful, restrained, good manners, yada, yada.
Being respectful, restrained, polite, etc., is how conservatives, along with the rest of the US, ended up in this piss-poor situation to start with. If, for example, McCain and Palin hadn’t “taken the high road” as McCain claimed his campaign was doing, but instead jumped on all of Obamao’s ugly associations/associates, the discrepancies between his autobiographies and reality, the gaps in is past, etc., that jackass wouldn’t be in the White House today.
The left wants the right to revert to it’s genteel ways so that they can continue to effectively use Alinsky tactics against us. To hell with that noise. No more Mr Nice Guy (or Ms Nice Chick). Use their tactics against them. “Get in their faces.” Hold them to their own ideals (or, since they have no ideals, hold them to the ideals they claim they have). The same for holding them to their rules (or the rules they claim to live by).
Use some Cloward Piven on them, too, not by trying to break their system financially, but by soaking up all of their time and efforts. Ever notice how some of the lefturded trolls that land here will keep on and on and on, posting the same few comments over and over and over as rebuttals, even posting the same talking points again in response to comments that blew those talking points out of the water? They’ll keep on and on and on until those they’re arguing with simply tell them to screw off and stop responding to them. Then, they post one last time to claim their victory and move on. When they wore all opposition down to the point that they were conceded the last word, in their warped minds, they won. Well, that’s what we have to do to them, too. Use up their time and energy; wear ‘em down and then claim victory.
Then he had his two legal experts on saying this abomination bill, healthcare, cannot be cancelled, shake heads ruefully, and then look perky. O’reilly has descended into the circus quality of entertainment, but I am not entertained. Bye bye bill.
I’m already damned tired of talking heads and their guest “experts” on tv pulling Eeyores on us. They don’t know how the judges and courts will rule because, in many ways, this is a first. If there were a precedence and it lost, do you think all of these state AGs would file these suits? Hell, no, they wouldn’t. If the state AGs thought they’d lose, would they file the suits? Hell, no, they wouldn’t. Do those supposed experts, attys so busy with clients that they have time to fly to NY to do Fox News or CNN, know more than the state AGs? Hell, no, they don’t. The libtarded media pukes are doing all they can to discourage us, to get us to roll over and take it. Again, I say to hell with that noise.
That they don’t share and express our dismay and outrage really pisses me off and has me looking at them as “one of them,” the socialists, the enemy…every damned one of them from every news station, including – yes, the “fair and balanced” and “most trusted name in news” – Fox News.
AuntieMadder commented:

owl commented:
It was all a lie although they deliberately tried to provoke the crowd. Several times that day. They wanted this to be the headline. They got it. O’Reilly and Kelly set the lie in concrete.
The clip that could have taken me over the edge was of Jesse J taunting the crowd. Please keep that one posted at the top. Anyone see that hate provoking on O’Reilly? Nope.
#16 said O’Reilly should stick to running after judges and perverts. Yep, but even then he is wrong half the time and too dumb to know it. Here’s a newsflash for O’Reilly: DA’s are usually the little kings that preside over their kingdoms.
#39 said O’Reilly doubled down on stupid over the email. Always. He walks on that water behind Obama.
The funniest thing I have seen on him was after all the azzz-kissing he has done for Obama with trying to get his interviews (and that azzz-kissing interview he got), Breit B mopped the floor with him.
Thank you for keeping on this story Jim. Why don’t we have Repub Congressmen with the guts to call that CBC organization racist by their very name? What do we expect when we allow them do it on a Congressional level in our faces. We allow this crap. The O’Reilly’s of this world also allow this to go unquestioned while promoting it. Yep, they were all worried about Repubs yesterday.
AuntieMadder commented:
Oh, and if someone did shout the “n” word or call Bawney Fwank a faggot, so what? When you get 50,000 or so pissed off people in one place for the express purpose of protesting you because it’s you who’s angered them so much, you can pretty much count on at least one of them calling you an ugly name or swearing at you. When only one, or even four or five, out of the 50,000 are shouting it, you don’t get to pin in on all 50,000 of them. (If the other 50,000 were in agreement with those few, they’d join in and it would become a repeated chant that no one could miss. Until, say, 30,000 of the 50,000 say it with them, it still belongs to just that one or those few who did say it.)
So, Bawney and Jesse, someone called you an ugly name? How freakin’ old are you? You’ve been called names before and you’ve called others names before. Grow up and get over it. The rest of us aren’t going to take responsibility for or feel guilty over something a few dumbasses among us shouted at you. If that’s what you’re waiting for, you’re going to be waiting a very, very long time. Idiots.

The racial taunts occurred when the representatives were walking OUT of the capitol building, not in. All of this videotape is not during the time in question.
Which just goes to show that when life hands Gateway Pundit failure, you guys make failuraid.
MGB commented:
It’s now noon on March 24, and KMOX is still reporting this fraud. IF a person shouted racial epithets at a black Member of Congress, at a widely covered event, why was NOBODY charged with a hate crime? Where’s the investigation into this hate crime, which might also arguably be called an assault upon a representative of The People? There’s no investigation because it DIDN’T happen. And even if it did happen, there would be no investigation OR charges because only a leftist PLANT would stage this. There ARE documented cases of leftist PLANTS who show up at Tea Party events and on conservative blogs to wave racists signs or post racist comments, in an Alinsky-like attempt to discredit their political opponents. Where’s the outrage about what happened to Mr. Gladney? Nowhere.
MGB commented:

Chisum commented:
Joseph Nobles,
So, where’s YOUR proof, cupcake?
Zuzu commented:
So, just curious.
Why are none of the videos showing the congressmembers walking OUT of the Cannon building, where they had claimed the n-word was yelled?
Or in the case of Mr. Cleaver, why no videos of him walking INTO the Capitol, where he had claimed to have been spit at?
Zuzu commented:
Sorry, didn’t notice Joseph Nobles also commented on this or I would have framed my comment as agreeing with his.
Of course, there are places on the tea party videos where it sure sounds like someone yelling the n-word. (IIRC, at 3:31 and 3:34 on the longer video, at 0:44 on the shorter one).
Zuzu commented:
“Doesn’t anyone think that is possible that a few of the ‘several cameras’ were just taking photographs?”
————————————–
Yep. In fact most of ‘em look like regular old digital (still) cameras. WRT Jesse Jackson Jr., only the newest iPhones have video capability.
Joseph Nobles commented:
Chisum:
My proof is the statements of U.S. Representatives. Direct testimony is still admissible in a court of law.
Your evidence to the contrary is a videotape of a different point in time completely. In other words, they were there and you’re impeaching their testimony based on a videotape that was not recorded during the actual taunting.
AuntieMadder commented:
So what if someone did yell out some ugly slurs, FruFru and Joseph Goebbels? As I commented upstream, there were 50,000 Tea Partiers there protesting that day. If out of the 50,000 there was one bigoted jackass, then I say the Tea Partiers are, some damn fine American patriots and upstanding citizen…well, except for 0.00002% of the Tea Partiers, the percentage that that one person out of 50,000 makes.
Think about it, numbnuts. If only 0.00002% of Democrats were libtarded idiots like you, well, I wouldn’t call the whole lot of you libtards and idiots. Idiots.
Disclaimer: As of right now, no one can present any video with audio of anyone calling the congressional Demonrats any names at all. But if it’ll shut you up, I’ll give you the 0.00002%. Idiots.

Not only that, they were made BEFORE any of the tea party videos started showing up on YouTube etc.
Zuzu commented:
“Whomever brings the charge brings the proof.”
Whomever? Uh, okay.
At any rate, the point is you are trying to disprove someone’s statement with irrelevant data, ie, videos of different incidents.
Chisum commented:
So, cupcake 2, these Reps filmed themselves going in but not leaving. Careless of them. Where were the police?
Zuzu commented:
By the way, Chisum, the testimony of eyewitnesses IS considered proof here in the good ol’ US of A.
Of course it can be rebutted with videotaped evidence, but so far no one has brought forth any. Why not, if so many tea parties supposedly had video cameras?

AuntieMadder:
I had replied to you, but Gateway Pundit very thoughtfully spared your eyes my reply. Suffice it to say that “So What?” is not very on-message of you.
Chisum commented:
Good question, cupcake2. Where’s the proof?
Keep plucking that racist chicken. It’s a very old and tired democrat talking point.
Zuzu commented:
“So, cupcake 2, these Reps filmed themselves going in but not leaving. ”
How do you know that was the sequence in question?
owl commented:
Anyone else find all this crap nuts? Just imagine……….someone or a couple? shouted ugly names. They were standing in a crowd of thousands. They shouted (probably not) at people belonging to an organization with a racist name. Nuts?
I tell ya what………..when they go arrest Wright for screaming obscenities against ‘whitey’ to hundreds, about millions, I will try to get excited.
Go clean up your own nest.
Chisum commented:
I’m responding to your comment #72, racemonger.
———————————————————————————————-
So, just curious.
Why are none of the videos showing the congressmembers walking OUT of the Cannon building, where they had claimed the n-word was yelled?
Or in the case of Mr. Cleaver, why no videos of him walking INTO the Capitol, where he had claimed to have been spit at?</i>
————————————————
Everyone here recognizes your utter desperation to paint ANYONE who disagrees with Obama, especially the Tea Party protesters, as RACISTS. Keep lifting those rocks, troll.
Sojourner commented:
… well done, Jim….security all over the place and no arrests, cell phones, video cameras, tape rolling, but not one picture of ‘it.’..no proof, just the same race baiting statist drones drooling for someone to make them ‘victims’ and coming up with none, make themselves to be victims anyway…and the msm can’t cover this tripe enough.
Remember this from Clinton/2000/ NY?
(NewsMax):
..’Mrs. Clinton was on the hot seat after an American-flag-carrying honor guard of Albany police was spit upon at her May 2000 Senate nominating convention. Afterward, her then-opponent, New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, complained that Clinton’s supporters were guilty of assault. He called for an investigation.
After a smattering of reports [Giuliani's comments rated just a single story] news editors quickly deep-sixed the story. But police union officials in Albany continued to complain.
After nine embarrassing days of stonewalling, Hillary decided to apologize to Albany Police Chief John Neilsen.’
..Press coverage of Hillary’s police apology? Zilch…
It’s far passed time to start calling these press goons on this garbage.
Bob Grant commented:
Hey ZuZU & Ignoble the Oldest Saul Alynsky trick in the book is to PLANT someone in the crowd who then says something objectionable to help create a negative narrative to defame the opposition.
I know it’s several bong hits ago but Remember “Go back in the Kitchen” w/Hillary Clinton during the NH primary?
Or
Dressing up as Klansmen & cheering during a Nixon era speech given by Bush the Elder.
Also how come you 2 “informed” trolls don’t mention that it’s Lyndon LaRouche DEMOCRATS who are bringing those Obama with the Hitler moustache posters to the Tea Party events. Um perhaps B-cuz it doesn’t help your silly pathetic narrative.
Of course no one can blame you 2 LYING Sacs-O-Poo Poo when Fox News has allowed that lie to continue unchallenged for several months.
All that being said perhaps you 2 should crawl back to the slimy rock in Liberal Land you came out from under; because no one drinks your Flava of Kool Aid here.
Kevin P commented:
We conservatives should respond to any accusation of racists with the following question:
“Do the members of the Congressional Black Caucus vote to fund Planned Parenthood?”
Margaret Sanger’s Planned Parenthood performs three times as many abortions on “African-Americans” as a percentage of the population as they do on any other segment of the population.
Worried about name-calling – when they’re actively funding an organization that has killed far more “African-Americans” than the KKK (Democrat Party founded, funded and run) ever dreamed of lynching.
See – liberalism really is a mental disorder.

To Chisum and Bob Grant:
Sequential reasoning not your strong point, eh?

Ace of Spades Exclusive: Yesterday Representatives Lewis and Clyburn Followed Me Into a Pathmark and Started Calling Me a Wog

Elly commented:
There’s a whole plethora of dirty, hateful insults none of which are acceptable – include tea bagger.
You know none of the good folks I know would ever stoop to the level of name calling. There is shame in associating with people of that lesser character.
And so I ask – where is the shame in all those in the media, the politicians and democrats and mean spirited individuals in calling people who stand up to coerced reform, teabaggers?
EVERY SINGLE time someone is called that there ought to be a hailstorm of complaints made, interviews should stop, and the insultee needs to demand right there and then if the insulter knows what it means. If they don’t call them on it and if they do let them know it’s absolutely not acceptable.
I mean really – what does the term mean? Most people have no idea until they look it up and that’ goes for the idiots who use the term.
It’s actually quite low class for anyone of any standing to go around calling people that and acting proud of it.
We should be showing a bit of rightful indignation ourselves.
Luckily, it’s abosolutely easy to find instances of this behavior all you have to do is turn on the tv, listen to the democrats, or read a newspaper to find examples (proof) of people’s insulting behavior, right there for the world to see.
designczar commented:
I love how they’re whining loudly now in the media about death threats. No one condones death threats – I certainly do not – but they can just get back to me when someone treats them to what the left treated President Bush to – a full-length film depicting his murder, putting his image in crosshairs on national television, and on and on.
All the streets in Leftyland are one-way.
They are trying to blow all of this out of proportion to discredit their opposition, because they’ve tried every other way to win the public over, and it didn’t work.
designczar commented:
Anybody remember what they put Palin through, incidentally? Think she never got a death threat? They burned her church down, did they not?
Bob Grant commented:
Response to Zuzu
–”Sequential reasoning not your strong point, eh?”–
So crickets on the 3 valid counter points I proffered huh?
1.I guess you’re admitting that if it did happen it was done by a plant in the crowd?
2. Why did no one marching to the Capitol get this sound bite?
3.They had enough video cameras. If there was video it (sh)would have surfaced by now.
4. Video’s come a loooooong way since Rodney King & someone managed to capture that moment.
5. The entire purpose of walking through that crowd was to get that sound bite & when it didn’t happen they just lied.
6. Who am I going to believe them or my lying ears? (He!! Alcee Hastings says they make it up as they go along) & now I’m supposed to trust their word.
7.I think not
Is that sequential enuff 4 ya Zuzu ;>}
Chisum commented:
Bob, bless you for responding to the race baiter.
I can’t stop laughing at him.
Zuzu commented:
Bob Grant -
It would have been a counter point if you were actually responding to my initial point. You weren’t.
You are perfectly welcome to claim they are liars if you wish. What you cannot do is show that videos of a different event prove them to be liars.
Zuzu commented:
“They burned her church down, did they not?”
Links please?
Amen commented:
Barney and Joe can sling the F-word and Maxine can use the sexual slur, but that’s just OK I guess.
SEIU can beat up a black man and use the N word, but the press ignores it.
Bob Grant commented:
Zuzu Please prove that I’m not typing this with my Johnson whilst standing on my head.
What I’m not?
Point made DH
Bob Grant commented:
BTW Thank you Chisum…
There are days when giving an intellectual beat down to a troll is the only thing that makes it all worthwhile.
Zuzu is a Big Fish in a very small barrel.

Beth commented:
Let’s get serious, here. Obama is taking the economy apart beam by beam, and the press is helping the Democrats to create a “racial discord” narrative based on nothing.
Because when election times come, the tinderbox needs to be really hot. Really, really hot. So that a state of emergency can be declared.
The democrats are not worried about the elections in november, for a very good reason.
Zuzu's Petals commented:
“giving an intellectual beat down ”
Yeah, that last comment was genuine Einstein quality stuff.
AuntieMadder commented:
Hey, trolls. Whatever happened to “innocent until proven guilty?” The Tea Partiers are innocent until proven guilty. Produce some proof or stfu.
LarryG commented:
As far as I am concerned, accusations of racial hate speech and accusations of rape should be in the same category as “yelling fire in a crowded theater” which is illegal. Such accusations are damning and nearly impossible to get rid of. Perpetrators of such iniquity should be jailed with the rest of the street thugs.
BBQ commented:
Im not sure if this post will go through or not but I fear marshall law as the government expnds with its hot air. I beieve we the people need to come together and like in the 1700S take this county back. Our constitution is gone and will eventually be taken out of childrens text books. The future is what we the people will make of it. Take it back . Repo the white house . repo the offices of every state head who had partisipated in this crime against he people
LillyWhite commented:
Wow you have pretty low standards of “proof.” None of what you allege to be “proof” would stand up in court. In news reports Rep. Lewis said the remark came as he was leaving the office building. Clearly the above images are well after the incident is alleged to have happened, so theri probative value is zero. Try again f_tards.
