Lou Dobbs & Dan Lothian spoke after the Crowley speech, and Dobbs praised Sgt. Crowley, saying whatever was accomplished today, Sgt. Crowley proved himself to be a “first-class professional police sergeant.” And what was Lothian’s response?
That Crowley was either well rehearsed from spending time in front of the cameras at the Cambridge “crime scene,” or he had been coached prior to the presser.
Come on, Lothian. Are you really saying Sgt. Crowley isn’t educated? Your only two suppositions are either camera face-time experience or being coached? Can’t you just agree the man is well educated? After all, if you read his police report, you would KNOW this man is HIGHLY educated. It’s one of the most well-written police reports I’ve ever read.
Can’t even stand to give the guy one compliment. Wow. Shallow fellow you are.
Today Cambridge Police Sgt. James Crowley and Professor Henry Gates met with Obama and Biden at the White House in the Rose Garden, ostensibly to have a “teachable moment.”
Sgt. Crowley’s presser was very illuminating, and he said something I was PRAYING we would find out; that neither he nor anybody else apologized to anybody. He said they “agreed to disagree.”
I think if anyone is owed an apology, it’s Sgt. Crowley, the original 911 caller, and cops all over the U.S.A., whose characters were incorrectly maligned.
So for this teachable moment…who’s doing the teaching, what’s being taught, and who’s being taught?
Final question: Who in the hell invited Plugs Biden?
Is CNN serious? Wolf Blitzer and the CNN crew waited with baited breath for the fresh just-released pool video of the Beer Summit, and announces the upcoming video as it goes out “to the entire world!”
Calm down, Wolf…the “entire world” is not interested in this. Perhaps the entire CNN family might be, but not so much in Iraq, Iran, Syria, Cuba, Honduras, or any other country. I was embarassed FOR you.
Oh, and thanks so much for adding to the massive ego that Pres. B-HO has. Just what we all needed.
Beck breaks it down for us, association by association, on what is actually behind the political machine that is Barack Obama. Involved parties & causes include the Apollo Alliance, Wade Rathke, ACORN, SEIU, Social Justice Engineering, Communists, the Green Movement, Labor Movement, Van Jones (Obama’s “Green Jobs” Czar), John Podesta, the Center for American Progress, the Tides Foundation, community organizer groups, green-collar jobs, and the hits just keep on comin’.
Phil Kerpen of Americans for Prosperity was on the show to discuss this research with Glenn, and makes me wonder aloud: Why aren’t we paying attention? It’s all staring us straight in the face, yet most of us fail to even recognize what’s happening. Wake up, America!
Yesterday on Beck’s show, he outlined clearly for us that Barack and Michelle have been telling us all along what their plan was for this country, and he backs it up with their own words. The saddest part? A lot of Americans didn’t pay attention and dismissed it as political-speak.
Shame on us for ignoring it. He was telling us EXACTLY what his plans were, and yet 52% of us elected him anyway? Talk about a teaching moment! Yet this comes at a very heavy price…hopefully one that we will be able to reverse before we lose our Republic.
Hi… please forgive the appearance of my site. I have a tag somewhere in the code that is wreaking havoc, and until I can find it, my site is all caddywampus on me. Please bear with me as I work to correct it.
Listen…I’m no fan of Obama, and like Mark Levin, I’d vote for a can of orange juice before I’d vote for Obama in 2012. Somewhere along the way, just because our president is black, videos like this are becoming more mainstream and more acceptable on YouTube and other sites, and it should not be.
This is tastleless to the n’th degree, but if it’s okay for black people to do this, how is anything ANY of the Republican candidates do remotely deemed racist at all?
If this country ever truly wants to progress and become a more civilized nation, why is trash like this even tolerated? I’m not asking for this garbage to be censored, but I’d love to see at least SOME condemnation of things like this to be more prevalent. Can we please all agree this is unacceptable in a civilized world? You cannot condemn one group of people for being allegedly “racist” while simultaneously approving of another group of people for creating videos such as this, villifying a single race of people in the process of glorifying the creators of these videos? One need only search certain terms on YouTube to find thousands of videos like this one. And they’re all equally disgusting.
What say you, Eugene Robinson, Goldie Taylor, Donna Brazile, Marc Lamont Hill, etc., etc.? I’m waiting for you all to openly condemn videos like this on YouTube. If you don’t, then I have no reason to listen to your small and petty complaints of racism from Fox News, Republicans as a whole, and GOP candidates in the 2012 primary. Your silence about videos like this are tacit approval of them.
As is said in many places, “hilarity ensues” (h/t Mediaite):
Frances Martel does a fabulous write-up about it, and I couldn’t have said it any better, so here it is direct from the Mediaite post:
“Are you offended?” O’Reilly asked Harpootlian, who replied that he was not, but that he found the fact that Republicans had “no outreach to African Americans” a problem “in a state where we have an African-American Republican Congressman.” “Adding insult to injury, this debate ignoring Martin Luther King’s birthday!” he added, which made O’Reilly ask who was ignoring the debate and why. The Republicans, Harpootlian replied, because “no one has raised any issue with Fox about it being appropriate or inappropriate.”
O’Reilly then asked whether there was a reason for this– namely, something that happened in 2008. Harpootlian did not remember what happened in 2008 (a Democratic primary debate on Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day) and who sponsored it (the Congressional Black Caucus), which prompted several awkward seconds where Harpootlian was obviously caught flat-footed. With this development, O’Reilly then told him that, “by injecting race into this, you do a disservice.” Harpootlian finally replied, blaming Republicans for injecting race into the matter by calling this “the most important election since 1860.” “We in the South have a little different version of that election,” he noted, suggesting that talking to Southerners in such a way was a sort of dog whistle. O’Reilly disagreed and just asked Harpootlian to give it up, adding, “you’re getting killed here!”
Today on Neil Cavuto, radio talk show host and constitutional scholar, Mark Levin was on to discuss his new book, “Ameritopia.”
Levin’s previous book, “Liberty and Tyranny” was a best-seller, as was another book before that titled, “Men in Black.” “Liberty and Tyranny” is a must-read for anybody who wants to know how we got to the point where we are in America today.
I’ve been stewing on this and stewing on this figuring out the right way to convey how I feel about it, and I’ve been struggling with just the right words to describe my sentiment. I read a fabulous screed by Deebow over at BlackFive, but it wasn’t until I saw the headline in a Weekly Standard piece today that quoted Lt. Col. Allen West (R-FL) on this matter. I couldn’t have said it better myself:
‘Shut Your Mouth, War Is Hell’
Yes, you got that right. Congressman West has weighed in on this flap over the Marines taking a piss on dead Taliban terrorists, sending an email to the Weekly Standard, who got his permission to print what he said. Here’s a portion of his commentary:
“All these over-emotional pundits and armchair quarterbacks need to chill. Does anyone remember the two Soldiers from the 101st Airborne Division who were beheaded and gutted in Iraq?
“The Marines were wrong. Give them a maximum punishment under field grade level Article 15 (non-judicial punishment), place a General Officer level letter of reprimand in their personnel file, and have them in full dress uniform stand before their Battalion, each personally apologize to God, Country, and Corps videotaped and conclude by singing the full US Marine Corps Hymn without a teleprompter.
“As for everyone else, unless you have been shot at by the Taliban, shut your mouth, war is hell.”
I’m not even quite sure that what the Marines did was wrong, but since when in the hell did we become so indignant and self-righteously outraged about treating killers like they deserve to be treated? Sure, they probably shouldn’t have videotaped what they did, but who the hell cares? And don’t give me this “don’t stoop to their level” B.S. either. Until you have been in the shoes of our warriors, or our first responders (cops, firefighters, etc.), or, heck, even ever been a crime victim yourself, you have no idea what you would do, given the same circumstances.
