A partial transcript of Olbermann’s moronic ramblings.
When contacted for a response to the Gutfeld, Levy, Coulter commentary, Olberman could not be reached. He is away on a lengthy overdue sabbatical at his rubber room time share condo.
Not tea baggers anymore, not demagogic commentators, an actual congresswoman inciting a hateful rebellion against the rule of law and order. Her name is Michele Bachmann.
This orgy of veiled threat and not so veiled racism of white power minority rule now fully the province of the Republican Party. Welcome to the coup!
…not just their misunderstanding of health care reform but also their hatred of President Obama, as well as pure hatred, period.
We had better get somehow, even if we‘ll have to pay them to show up, some black faces, some brown faces, some Asian people, or somebody in this crowd, other than the crowd that we‘ve seen at every piece of videotape that looked like—that looked exactly the same. This is otherwise going to look like a pro-apartheid rally in South Africa 35 or 40 years ago.
It has come to this. Criminals are victims and those who speak out against criminals are the bad guy. Lou Dobbs a United States citizen who fights for the rule of law and American sovereignty has a shot fired into his home. Free speech is all but dead. Embedded video
A few quotes:
“But I want to tell you, when you talk about what they’ve done – they’ve created an atmosphere and they’ve been unrelenting in their propaganda,” Dobbs said. “Three weeks ago this morning, a shot was fired at my house where I live. My wife was standing out and that followed weeks and weeks of threatening phone calls.”
“And, as I told the state patrol, and by the way, the New Jersey State Patrol is absolutely terrific – they responded instantly. But this shot was fired with my wife not, I don’t know, 15 feet away and we had threatening phone calls that I decided not to report because I get threatening phone calls,” Dobbs continued. “I now – it’s become a way of life – the anger, the hate, the vitriol, but it’s taken a different tone where they’ve threatened my wife. They’ve now fired a shot at my house while my wife was standing next to the car. It’s become something else.”
“But we’ve got to start being honest, instead, the national liberal media has chosen sides and they’ve decided that they’re going to focus on the liberal view, which is that they will embrace illegal immigration – no matter who is harmed, no matter how many laws are broken or how few consequences there are for breaking those laws.”
Portion of the info posted on the video’s YouTube page:
Pro-Illegal alien Amnesty supporting groups have been spreading lies about Lou Dobbs of CNN, trying to get him fired to censor his free speech, and foment hatred towards him because he stands against illegal immigration and Amnesty. Now, those lies and hatred have manifested in gunfire into the home of Lou Dobbs near his Hispanic wife!
The Southern Poverty Law Center, the Anti Defamation League, the National Council of La Raza, Media Matters, and Geraldo Rivera of Fox News are using false information to foment hatred towards Lou Dobbs or any American who speaks out against Amnesty or illegal immigration.
They could not get CNN to fire Lou Dobbs, so now their buddies in the drug and illegal alien importing gangs are likely stepping up…[...]

Newsbusters commentary and partial transcript from the video above:
Geraldo: One of the aspects of our reality in the United States now is the defamatory tone of the immigration debate and how that immigration debate has slandered an entire race of people. It has been reckless beyond imagining, it has been reckless in a way that is beyond precedent.
Noel Sheppard – Newsbusters: Wait a minute. Beyond precedent? Does Rivera have no recollection of slavery in America or the Holocaust in Germany? But I digress:
Geraldo: Lou Dobbs, a man who was an accomplished journalist, and who left to go and start his own venture in the digital media, having to do with space, I believe, and then came back to CNN, and nobody was watching his program. He discovered that one of the way to get people to watch was to make of the image of a young [ILLEGAL] Latino trying to get into this country a profoundly negative icon. (Since when are criminals not a negative icon?) Lou Dobbs is almost single-handedly responsible for creating, for being the architect of the young-Latino-as-scapegoat for everything that ails this country. [...]
Geraldo: It has been one of the most frustrating experiences of my professional life to watch as a good portion of the American people began to listen and believe that immigrants were responsible for crime in this country, responsible for bringing terror to this country, responsible for stealing jobs, responsible for effecting in a very negative way the American way of life. [...]
No Geraldo “a good portion of the American people began to listen and believe that (ILLEGAL) immigrants [are] responsible for crime in this country, responsible for bringing terror to this country, responsible for stealing jobs, responsible for effecting in a very negative way the American way of life.” A fact no matter how much you try and deny remains a –fact.
For an educated man Geraldo is a blithering fool who can not understand a simple concept. Such as the huge distinction between legal and illegal. No scratch that. The truth of the matter is as glaring as the distinction may be, he chooses not to understand nor admit the distinction. He prefers race baiting instead. More his style…
The weasel Geraldo should open his home to all of the poor mistreated illegal aliens WITHOUT any back ground checks and have them live among his family. I wonder how comfortable would he feel doing that. Does he leave his doors unlocked at night? Of course he doesn’t. What is going on with the millions of illegal aliens swarming across the US border is the same thing but on a much broader scale. Good God, does someone in his family have to be harmed by an illegal alien before he realizes the stark reality of illegal aliens coming in the US without background checks. Including hardened criminals? Such as vicious gang members (MS-13), rapists, child molesters, drug runners and sex slave traders. Anyone who defends illegal aliens across the board is defending the thousands of criminals who come in alongside the decent ones. I don’t suppose he considers that at all while he is going around spouting over exaggerated slanderous rhetoric and falsehoods. And when using his logic may of led to the gun shot fired at Lou Dobb’s home. Which was almost fatal.
Bottom line: Lou Dobbs defends US law and free speech. Geraldo defends criminals and censorship of those who do not tow the politically correct line.
One cares about America and the safety of American citizens, the other does not.
As they try and fight back from the defensive position they find them selves in –up against the wall.
The title says it all.
“Rise Of The Conservative Media”
No, no, no we can’t abide a conservative media in the land of Hopey-Changey. That just will not do. If they had it their way, (what they see as) blaspheming the Obama would be against the law.
Not worth taking the time to fisk. Typical progressive left whine fest, from beginning to end. Media Matters should get on the horn to the ‘other’ news networks and inform them they are not holding up their end of the bargain. And while they are at it they should think long and hard and try to figure out why Fox is so successful and the ‘others’ aren’t. Why when compared to Fox News, they languish in the ratings basement.
I plucked some juicy tid-bits from the accompanying post.
Unlike the Clinton and Bush years, the right-wing echo chamber is now aided by a network that has thrown any remaining shred of journalistic credibility out the window, ” said Eric Burns, President of Media Matters. “The modern conservative movement has gained an enormous megaphone in Fox News that they are using to impact legislation and shape public opinion.”
Burns added: “People need to decide how long they will allow the policies of their country to be dictated by a media outlet accountable not to voters or constituents but to ratings.”
Fawning over a sitting POTUS is hardly a credible journalistic stance to take. The MSM threw objectivity out the window long ago.
Hold on folks, more inanity to come.
SUMMARY: Since Barack Obama’s inauguration, Fox News has frequently engaged in political advocacy against the Democratic Congress and White House. Specifically, Fox News personalities have promoted and encouraged viewers to “join” tea party protests, Glenn Beck’s organization The 9-12 Project and its September 12 “March on Washington,” and town hall meetings; engaged in a witch hunt seeking to “get rid of” Obama administration officials and nominees; implored viewers to call Congress and the White House to protest Democratic policies; and celebrated “victor[ies]” when Democratic legislation has been stalled.
Aw…the bitter smell of desperation on an opponent is the sweet smell of victory.
The money line? “We’re going to speak truth to power.” The ultimate expression of self-righteous victimhood, offered here by … a senior advisor to the most powerful man on earth.
Conservative girl next door. I am a pissed off red head.
Fear my wrath, or come along for the ride. Choose your side.
Free will, truth and the freedom of speech are my weapons of choice.
"...But if a believer demands that I, as a nonbeliever, observe his taboos in the public domain, he is not asking for my respect, but for my submission. And that is incompatible with a secular democracy."
