MSNBC Idiot Dylan Ratigan Unwisely Admits The Truth

Hypocrisy and racial get-out-of-jail-free cards.

Thanks to MiltonS.

Oh, Speaking of Failed Stars and Brown Dwarfs: Coldest, lamest brown dwarf discovered, less than 200 degrees F.

13 How is getting up at 5 am abuse? And guess what: I don't get to sleep between 5am and 8pm, either. And how is one hour of exercise a day abuse? What Manning is not being allowed is to make his own choices. Well what the fuck did he expect? He's in custody awaiting trial. This is not a game.

Have sympathy for me, I actually had to watch this live.

Had to ask the folks who were watching it because they wanted to, what would the the reaction be if they put an accused traitor in a general population setting and he was shived.

Hell forget shived - if somebody called him a pussy they would be outraged.

Posted by: Have Blue at March 11, 2011 02:09 PM (mV+es)

20 Why the hell is the left and media (redundant I know) always so overly concerned with the imprisonment of traitors and enemies of the US?

Also, is he in solitary or does he have a single occupancy cell? He can talk to toerh inmates in cells near him, he has visitors, he can make phone calls, he is taken out and given one hour to exercise, he is provided reading material. It doesn't sound like solitary to me.

22 Don't we already have enough on Manning to shoot the SOB? Why are we dicking around?

The fight the video is about is the loyal machine/race-bating Democrats vs. the anti-war/homosexual issue/Wired magazine Democrats.

What Manning did wasn't free speech, it was espionage and probably treason. Democrats don't get this because they don't think of America as their country, sadly enough.

I know there are people who would disagree with that characterization, but to convince me that Democrats do think of themselves as Americans, they're going to have to ACT LIKE IT.

This isn't about "my country right or wrong" or any of that shit, but if you think Manning was a "whistleblower" you have crap in your head. He wasn't exposing a malfeasance, he was having a fucking temper-tantrum and lashing out by giving secret intel to foreigners expressly opposed to US interests.

Ever notice how amazing it is when the leftist media does the same thing most of us do constantly every day without even thinking about it, because it is right - simply tells the truth?

It is difficult not to wish that ill befall these people who have done nothing to deserve the power and influence that they have, and who in a just world would not only not have power, but be considered unclean.

      I was doing some work for Hyatt and stayed in their  Atlanta hotel for a few days. Every employee including the General Manager was black.  After awhile I noticed all the front desk people and outside sales employees were light skinned with 'good hair', while the housekeeping  and maintenence staff were of much darker complexon with the more common texture of hair found in black people. I was offended seriously!

So the new standard is to only say things that can't possibly be twisted or edited into an embarassment by KOS, HuffPo, or DU?

What's the new word for "Black Hole" going to be? How about "Mellow Yellow" soda? Is "Testarossa" offensive to gingers?

Seriously, the path you lay down is literally impossible to follow - "never give offense."

"If it can be misinterpreted don't say it" means "duct-tape your mouth shut."

Shhh  if I were you I'd plead the fifth on the hobo thing I really don't know what you're talking about. I have been reading/commenting here for about four years. lately as Krazy Kat I think the hobo meme is hillarious. I was pointing out if you were concerened about appearances here then telling me to get maimed with a garden weasel, which is offensive crossed your imaginary PC line as well. I think I made my point with some amount of finesse. Not to mention that others here as well got my meaning. I say lighten up and you reply with a garden weasel? I thing that was WAY overreacting .
