If you can, watch the split screen reaction on Juan's face as his eyes widen when Moran says this -- it's just priceless.
Moran: On kos they talk about the Israelis. The Jewish people in general, gassing Joe Lieberman you can't say that kind of stuff and expect to be taken seriously in politics.
Let's again point out that the Moran is the moderator on Malkin's website and it should be noted that in Malkin's illustrious career as a "voice of moderation" she has ...
Repeatedly claimed she doesn't believe in "Hate Crimes" because they "punish thought" (unless I guess those thoughts are about Joe Lieberman?)
Defended Don Imus when she called the flap over his "Nappy Headed Hos" comment an attempt to "Blame Whitey"
Compared Latinos protesting a House bill aimed at cracking down on illegal immigration to "white supremacists and neo-Nazis." (But they didn't commit a Hate crime or nothin')
Stated that the proper reaction to suicides occurring at Guantanamo - despite reports that many of those held there are innocent of any terrorist activity - should be "Boo-freakin-hoo.'"
This person has standing to criticize Markos for dropping the F-Bomb? And dropping it on a Democrat no less, I'm surprised she didn't jump up and cheer in a ecstatic fit of shadenfreude.
Anyway, Williams summed it up perfectly.
Williams: I think if you're listening to Michael Savage, Glenn Beck, I mean these guys - these guys use outrageous language and I think what you're seeing there is that people are trying to match it in terms of intensity on the left, given the intensity and the success that we've seen on the right for that kind of language and that kind of rhetoric. I don't think there's any question where that language and rhetoric started - it started on the Right.
No Shit.
Next time some Right-Wing says we're "mean and foul-mouthed" let just say politely - "And you can thank Mr. Cheney and Mr. Savage for setting the standards for political discourse in this country at the absolute Rock Bottom!"
And just for the record Michelle, let me quote one of my favorite comments in this entire O'Reilly/Kos Fued after Dennis Miller came on as BillO's fluffer to revive him after Dodd KO'd him last week.
Fuck Dennis Miller in the ear (8+ / 0-)
Fuck Bill O'Reilly in the other ear
Fuck Fuckity Fuck Fuck Fuck
Daily Kos
Fuck

Yeah, I think it's safe to say that your guys little "Ms Manner's spiel" is really making us re-think our approach. Er, not so much. Because for starers - we made you look!
Born and Bred in South Central LA. I spent 12 years working in the IT Dept. for federal contractor Northrop-Grumman on classified and high security projects such as the B2 Bomber. After Northrop I became an IT consultant with the state of California in Sacramento and worked on projects with the Dept of Consumer Affairs and CalTrans, as well as projects for Kaiser Permanente in Oakland. Now living in Los Angeles with my own independant web design company where I operate the Truth 2 Power Online Radio Station.
1. Juan Williams is a hired Republican operative or at least a "Republican Apologist" ( as well a classic Uncle Tom! )
2. Shame on you for even tuning into FOX! Even if you aren't watching the sewage they spew - by tuning your set to their channel you add to their viewer stats.
Educate yourself about how TV programming works: the business model is designed to deliver viewers (you) TO the advertisers, all that crap (any crap, they don't care) between commercial blocks is the "bait." The more sets they have tuned to, nibbling at, their "bait" - the more they can charge for delivering viewers to the advertiser's messages.
There is a huge business keeping track (search Nielsen or Arbitron for example) of what your TV or radio is tuned to - even if you're not watching or paying attention to it.
You want to hurt FOX? Block them.

Juan Williams works at Fox News; therefore he receives a paycheck from them. Nothing wrong with that. I supposedly could sneer at Keith Olbermann, "well' you're just on the MSNBC payroll!" . (Actually, I will never have the chance to sneer at him, because Olbermann never allows criticism on his show.) But such a sneer would make no sense. Olbermann receives a paycheck from MSNBC; that's the free market at work. Side note: Kudos to Michelle Malkin for keeping the flashlight on hate sites like Daily Kos and Democratic Underground.

But Juan Williams at least offers a different opinion from the usual neoclowns on "False Noise Sunday", and he sometimes wins. Better than these Rethugs going completely unchallenged! That's why it and "False Noise Watch" are the only shows I watch on that network.
