Why do liberals, er, sorry, I mean progressives always use terms like “take back” or “win back” a seat, as if it were theirs to begin with? It’s like the Republican or conservative candidate “stole” it from the Democrat and they have to take it back from those evil Republicans!!

Tommy, the regressive, also says Coakley “handed” Brown the seat, as if he didn’t win it fair and square. Liberal logic, it hurts your hair every time!

A sea of white people

Old Lizzie Warren is one ugly hag. She has a face like John Kerry, and hair like Barney Frank.

That seat is not the Ted Kennedy seat, nor is it the Scott Brown seat or the Elizabeth Warren seat. No one person owns that seat. It belongs to the state and people of Massachusetts, with a representative fulfilling the office of Senator for that state.

Maybe it’s similar to conservatives always planning to “take back” the country, when it was never exclusively theirs, and when it’s still just as much theirs as it ever has been.

You lack Grace.

“Why do liberals, er, sorry, I mean progressives always use terms like “take back” or “win back” a seat, as if it were theirs to begin with? It’s like the Republican or conservative candidate “stole” it…”

We’ll remember you said that the next time we hear one of a few thousand GOPers claim we have “to take back the country”

Um, 500 people in a state that’s sooooo Democratic? First, let’s see how many of these people show up to the second event. Second, if she couldn’t draw 500 people to a volunteer event (especially considering how the media appears to be doing Warren’s advertising for her), THAT would be a story.

Is anyone else getting a little tired of this? I used to like coming to Mediaite, as it used to have some balance. Now, if there’s a story about a Democrat (like this one), it all advocacy, all the time. If it’s a Republican, it’s some kind of slam, or they’re on the defensive, or they have to “explain” their nonsensical position on something.

It’s cliche to claim liberal media bias, but as a former fan of this site, the cheerleading on one side is getting a little unnerving.

Common political phraseology and hence a shallow critique.

Yeah for a moment there I thought Tommy accidentally embedded a Klan Rally photo.  I always heard Boston was one of the most racist cities in America.  Cain’s rise in the polls have brought these people out in force.

I can’t decide if I want to go out celebrating the night of the election in 2012 or stay in and watch MSNBC meltdown and read Mediaite waiting for Tommy to comment on what went wrong as each result comes in.  It’s truly a tough decision.

all i see are old white ladies

Warren will never get away with murder like Teddy did.

I can’t wait.. people start archiving all the posts from Obama water carrying pseudo journalist like Tommy boy and read on the night of November 2012. 

Funny how all these lefty loons like Tommy Christopher absolutely hated the Tea Party and said they were irrelevant are now trying to feebly compare this OWS mod with them.

I noticed that the site has taken a turn to the left of recent. It’ll get worse as the elections approach

They’re already creating their excuse story, i.e., the Democrats are too dumb to get an ID so they can vote and it’s all the bad, bad Republicans fault.

Hard to believe that she is doing so well with all the negative press she gets from the media. Like this hard-hitting piece about a picture she took making her into the re-birth of JFK, Ghandi, jesus, bambi and the person who discovered chocolate.

It is sad to see her have to run for office to get back to DC after Obama directly snubbed her after she created the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau- putting in charge the man she hired, talk about a blow. BTW- no one handed scott brown the seat except the voters. 

I love trolling, but that was pretty weak.

Did you notice they are all white

Yep, it looks like a pretty racist group to me, if you apply the Liberal Logic that loons like Tommy did when discussing the Tea Party.

Humanity was saved when she kept her clothes on… lol

Tea Party worked within the system to effect change in the US Federal, State and Local governments; Shellacked
OWS have their skulls fractured and Lord Vader was a liberal.
LOL

Weak? do you have eyes or even a brain?

Must be a Tea Party rally. 

“Common political phraseology”
When used by a liberal but racist when used by a conservative

I’ll try better next time.

She might not, by her own words, she’s now the Dalai Lama of OWS. 

Some hurp for your durp?

God you are pathetic, Tommy. It’s afucking picture… recent polls show the race is merely competitive, that’s it.

Win back a seat is not racist. Take the country back from the foreign born socialist dictator dedicated to perpetuating the democratic plantation state that starves “real” Americans… An argument exists on that one.

This is what the freeloaders look like. Warren promises the young ones other peoples wealth. “Socialism”

Wow, I don’t even have to comment, you all said it so well.
Nice to see there are still some sane people around.
I am so sick of this Warren being pushed on us like Obama was!
For Chrissakes, when I see that picture it scares me…they all look slightly loony, don’t they? A little Children of the Corn-ish.

Tommy drools over any Democrat.

…not all of ‘em.

If anything, it looks like the same general demographic comprising the Tea Party, a bunch of old white people that are probably retired, and then “other” in single digit percentages (other meaning races and college/yuppie aged folks). Unless of course the handful of people of color I see in that one crappy photo are indeed self-loathing members of the Aryan Resistance.

One thing I don’t see are any images of Cain with a bone through his nose, so that’s at least a slight plus.

pre-journalism days……now that was a funny line, are you in your post-journalism life now? because we missed your journalism life here at mediaite

“Take the country back from the foreign born socialist dictator dedicated to perpetuating the democratic plantation state that starves “real” Americans… An argument exists on that one.”

I’m guessing that you are referring to President Obozo

Born in America but spent his formative years in a foreign country.
Wrote in his book that he palled with Marxists in school (just like George Washington and every President before him did). 
Ask the blacks in Detroit who have been under the Democratic party’s rule for over 50 years if they feel like they’ve been living in a plantation and if Obozo’s policies have not worsened their situation.

Still arguing?

But don’t you always complain when the other side does it??????????????????????????

Interesting photo. Typo in graf 2: should be “horde,” not “hoard.”

I always argue… it’s a sacred art.  You?  Sloppy confirmation.  ”Birthers” are a right wing faction.  The right wing attack Obama’s policies as socialist without merit.  African American’s are savvy enough to understand which party aligns with their interests, hence the elevated level of party loyalty.  Elements on the right falsely portray the President as “other” and his parties constituents as dull and greedy slaves… assumptions with both explicit and implicit racial implications.  In effect, the modern Republican party has adopted the same racist perspective once mastered by post Reconstruction confederate sympathizers.

You freeking live in Florida.  Leave the people in Mass alone.  Not your business.

Tommy trying to gin up the lefty vote. Ill make ya a bet Tommy, once the blue collar workers of Mass learn how far to the left Warren is, Sen Brown will win by at least 5 pts in 2012. Alot of people think Mass is some radical left state like Warren’s views, but in realty alot of the blue collar dems are much more moderate in the same mold as Brown.

actually, town names in Massachusetts all sound like joke names from England which they are, blame it on the English, not the Simpsons

Brown won’t have it much longer!!

I just hope the liberal media does the same background checks that they did on Sen Brown. For some reason though my guess is they will do what they did with Obama, aka treat him like a messiah and not look into anything negative in his background.

Not a single black person ion the crowd. Tommy, get your whistle.

thanks for the reminder, the regressives are trying  ”to take back the country” to the racist past

Never, its only the Tea Party that is racist. I mean look at ows its , um, oops, nevermind. I just noticed its like 95% young white kids.

heh

Maybe you should return to the Drudge site where you belong.

Conservatives really are terrible people who like to pretend they’re not terrible people.

I guess you haven’t been to New England. That’s what it looks like mostly. 

Hahaha. Keep laughing. Brown won’t be around much longer. Hahaha. 

Didn’t Elizabeth Warren say something along the lines that if you are a successful business person you really didn’t make it on your own…you did it on the backs of others?  Does that mean Steve Jobs wasn’t a self-made successful person?  Does that mean he did it on the backs of other people?  Does that mean his wealth of over 8 billion dollars wasn’t really his?

Now I see why they’ve been holding zombie apocalypse drills.

Yeah that’s what it looks like if you forget the black people.

Wake up idiots. This is a photo of a few hundred very enthusiastic volunteers for Eliz Warren, who according to friends in Boston is a shoe-in for the senatorial seat. All your comments are stupid and misogynist. The reason she’s allied with OWS who already represent the majority of Americans, is that she should have been appointed by Obama to bring about reform of Wall Street. Eventually, Obama will have to act to reign in the crazy excesses that are still going on. What the right isn’t getting is that we’re witnessing a sea change in the political process. The Tea Party and the 2008 election was an abberation and an overreaction to the financial mess exacerbated by Murdoch and FOX. The right is going down simply because they have zero to offer as is seen in the farce to find the ‘ideal’ rightwing candidate. There is no and can’t be any ideal candidate, or they would have found the ‘perfect’ one already, etc. What’s even worse about your comments is the hatred for women that comes across. You only seem to be able to tolerate women like Palin, Bachmann, Phyllis Shafly, Ann Coulter,. Michelle Malkin and other lovely creatures such as these.

Scary (For Brown People) Photo Of Elizabeth Warren Volunteer Meeting Goes Viral

FIFY

According to my friends in Boston she has no chance.

You’re obviously a racist by the way.

Mediaite it’s not Ted Kennedy’s and never was, it’s the people’s seat.

Oh those people would walk off a bridge if that fat bitch told them to.  Liberals have no brains of their own. Look at the empty stares in those beady little eyes. Also, why are liberals always so freaking ugly? Not one decent looking being in that photo. It looks like Olan Mills vomited in 1987 and took a picture of it.

Ya, this site is basically useless these days. I called it a few months back. It’s probably going to be media matters’ish in a month or so. They’re ramping up the Obama bootlicking hard and fast… pun intended.

You understand that drudge just links to other websites of varying ideologies, right? 

Also, do you really need an echo chamber of far left idiocy to make yourself feel like you’re not alone in the world? Only nutcases want to live in a world where everyone thinks and acts the same. Are you a nutjob?

Sadly I’ve come to believe that the flooding of the market support Obama has from the media in general will assure that he gets re-elected in 2012. I Don’t think it matters who the Republicans pick. Studies done by liberals have shown that the media gives Democrats about a 6% point advantage in every election, and that’s just an average.

Clearly you’ve never seen The Pirates of Silicone Valley.

Another thing; you should look into the context and breadth of that comment and it makes total sense, not the FOX news SOUNDBITE version of the comment

Sounds like your friends are on the pulse of Boston

BAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

TOTALLY AWESOME

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

ENJOY IT CONS

You can see ions?!? And black people ions too !?!

Let’s look at the real facts.  the republicans have blocked any nomination to that position and the president knew that they would definitely block the nomination if he nominated Elizabeth Warren.  Anybody with a  mind would know that Elizabeth can better serve her country at this time in the US Senate.  And she doesn’t have to have a pickup to travel around Massachusetts to get the support of voters in the commonwealth.  After all, Scott Brown has walked in line behind Mitch McConnell on every bill.  And that includes the JOBS BILL.
We need good strong, smart women like Elizabeth Warren making decisons for our country.,

Thanks Elizabeth and Good Luck to you and the people in Massachusetts.

If you haven’t noticed, New England largely forgets black people. I’m not a conservative whack job, but I’m also not a huge fan of certain aspects of New England, including the fact that it’s very segregated. If you’ve ever been to Cape Cod, for example, you likely won’t see a single black person. Cambridge is pretty integrated but the average Boston street is either mostly white (most of the city) or entirely black (the poorest parts of Dorchester, etc). Personally, I prefer NYC, which is more integrated and more open minded than anywhere else on the East Coast I know of. 

Video was posted on Mediaite September 22, 2011 by Colby Hall…not Fox News

And she was absolutely right.  Steve Jobs had people helping him along the way too.  Maybe you should get down to the local book store and pick up a copy of the book on his life.  In fact, he walked 7 miles each Sunday so he could get a free meal. 

No one is saying that the $8 billion wasn’t his, but when Steve himself supported paying higher taxes, who are you to argue?  In fact, steve was a big supporter of Barack Obama. 

68% of the 1% richest in the US agree they should be paying higher taxes.  who are you to argue against it?

foreign born??  trash

ass

I love all the bitter comments from the conservatives here! Haha! Elizabeth Warren is going to kick Scott Brown’s ass!

Read again.

The real Bill Hicks would laugh at some ahole using his name on anykind of message board you loser.

Liberal darling Warren will have no trouble getting SEIU, Acorn, and UAW paid volunteers.

Liberals “always” use the term Take Back? Neocons love to be victims, especially when they hear their own words used by their nemesis, the “Libs”. You jokers have been using “Take back the country” since Nov. 2008. Grow up.

Wow. They are all posing. Every single one of them looks like a teacher or ex-teacher. Singing to the choir. Pandering to the union.

That was easy.

I still can’t wrap my head around a Bill Hicks fan that is a modern day liberal.  WTF???

Framingham is about 80% white, so stop blowing your dog whistle.

“And she was absolutely right.  Steve Jobs had people helping him along the way too.”

Yes, and he PAID THEM. That’s not “help”, that’s employment.

That’s why people like you and Elizabeth Warren sound sofucking stupid when you mindlessly bark out these claims.

“68% of the 1% richest in the US agree they should be paying higher taxes.  who are you to argue against it?”

68% of the 1% don’t want anyone else getting rich.

I live and work in Boston and for the most part nobody know who the hell she is. They do know who Scott Brown is because of his historic win of the Chappaquiddick Murderer’s senate seat.

I hate Scott Brown, and any vote I cast for him would make me feel dirty. But I can’t stand Socialists like Elizabeth Warren; she in particular is absolutely worthless. She’s never accomplished anything in life except kissing politician ass, so to rationalize her worthless existence she tries to leach off of actual success people by saying that they couldn’t have done it without her and that they owe her something.

wow, seriously, is this all you people have? Scream Faux talking point “socialist” because it’s been drilled into your brains? Then this comment above from a 7 yr old?

The cons who live on this site wreak of loserism.

No matter what, that pic in one town is very impressive. Berate it or embrace it at your own peril.

Wrong.  I said you should read his book.  I haven’t read it yet, but I do know a lot about Steve Jobs life.  Steve attended Reed College in Portland but after the first term, he decided he didn’t want his parents having to pay for his education when he really didn’t know what he wanted to do.  So, for the next year or so, he stayed in the rooms of various friends and attended classes he chose auditing them.  One of those classes turned out to be important when it came to the type faces for the Mac and he kept in touch with the professor of that class.  He had help from friends for food as well – collecting bottles and cans to get money also for food.  And every Sunday, he would walk to downtown Portland for a free meal at a religious center. 

Yes, Steve Jobs had a lot of help from his friends.  And he especially had a lot of help from his friend Steve Wozniak.

Maybe, Maybe not. We’ll see i guess.

Who made you the authority on what I can talk about? Piss off.

He outright exploited Steve Wozniak. Shows how much you know about Steve Jobs’ life.

And those people gave him a place to stay, they didn’t come up with the iPhone for him. They’re not entitled to a penny from him.

What’s really scary is for some reason, all my neighbors here in CT have republican signs on their lawns for the board of education election in November.  Typically, no one cares, and CT is very democratic.  I feel like I’m suddenly in Texas.  Our state is a huge backlash on the huge tax hikes with only moderate spending decreases.  Turning many independents here into hard-core republicans at local, state and national levels.  Unprecedented in my life.  

My advice to democrats in new england is that independents here are nearly half of voters and very energized (angry with taxes). Mobilize all the base, or the northeast is going to be very red for the first time in ages.    

The senate seat has NEVER been Kennedy’s seat.  Always been Massachusetts voters’ seat.  Crony politics is just as bad as crony capitalism. Or worse.  

>> LkvwLiberal: “Um, 500 people in a state that’s sooooo Democratic? First, let’s see how many of these people show up to the second event. Second, if she couldn’t draw 500 people to a volunteer event (especially considering how the media appears to be doing Warren’s advertising for her), THAT would be a story”

This was basically my reaction to the story as well.
A big fat DUH.

I mean, come on, you’re talking a traditionally VERY blue state…you’re talking Ted Kennedy’s old seat…AND at a time when Democrats and uber leftist Progressives had placed SO much hope in Obama as their god (and given that he likewise had control of Congress for 2 years)…the Left was REALLY just salivating at the mouth to see soooooo many progressive policies just rammed down the American people’s throats. But then they didn’t get it.

The result? They now see every single seat that can be picked up as critical because — let’s face reality here — if Obama wins reelection, even HE will now realize he’s just going to be “termed out” of office. Which means he WILL turn farther to the Left (in terms of policies) figuring “Ah, f*ck it. Might as well go all the way, since I have nothing to lose at this point.”

As for the photo, while it gives Tommy Christopher a raging erection and turns him on to no end, I agree. Given how much the media is trying to ensure a Warren win, if she DIDN’T get a large turn-out that would have been a story — though one you can BET the media would NEVER have covered.

I mean, come on, do you REALLY think you would have gotten a story here on Mediaite — or in the MSM — about a “low turnout” for a Warren event? The total CROCK being that if Scott Brown held a voluteer meeting and it had a low turn out, it would be a banner headline.

Not to mention, why is this even a big deal? How much do you wanna even bet that this turn out was secretly COORDINATED behind the scenes just so the Warren campaign and the media COULD make a big deal out of it?

This is the equivalent (on the Left) of the time the Army — during the initial Iraq invasion — ordered some soldiers to go round up some civiilans, to have them tear down the Saddam statue so it would immediately LOOK like the populace was rallying around our venture there.

Simply put: this was staged and even Tommy Christopher knows it, but he’s already slipping into campaign mode and letting his die-hard liberal leanings take over to make SURE he helps the election war cause. Which is too bad — Christopher USED to be a good writer here till he decided he was going to let his impartiality get pissed in the wind.

You do realize that this is New England, right?  The vast majority of people in Mass is white.  It’s just a sample of the local demographic.

Are you willing to cut a check big mouth. If you can talk the talk then how about you putting up, otherwise shut your a-hole, I mean your mouth, oops, same thing

Because Coakley’s campaign was so bad that, in sports parlance, she gave the game away. Many phrasings can be attributed to liberal conspiracy. This is not one of them.

Bottom line.  If voters like Brown, he’ll stay.  As long as incumbents are polling well, they rarely lose.  
Warren’s another lousy candidate, her Harvard elitism will turn off blue-collar voters. 

I’m glad she’s there.  Academics tend to make a lot of dumb statements and I’m looking forward to the gaffes.  Should be fun… 

I guess the backs of these people don’t count? Oh, right, they were employed so Apple can do whatever it wants with them:

http://gizmodo.com/5542527/undercover-report-from-foxconns-hell-factory

I can only hope that this will be your fate one day since it is clearly what you desire for America.

“Simply put: this was staged”

Aren’t public events by very definition “staged”?

Can you imagine how expensive instituting a mandatory voter ID act would be to us taxpayers? 

The TPARTY was bought and paid for by the KOCHROACHES AND PROPAGANDIZED by the Murdogs who made sure there was a talking point for each minute of the day. They showed up at meetings, shouted down the crowd and went home to lick their chops. The TPARTY farts didn’t smell according to FOX .

Why do Neocons, er, sorry Conservatives always use terms like “take back” or “win back” a seat, as if it were their’s to begin with? It’s like the Democrat or liberal candidate “stole” it from the Republican and they have to take it back from those evil Democrats!!

The black population in Massachusetts is around 6%. I seriously any of you jerks can identify the race of everyone in that picture.
More likely, your vitriolic rhetoric towards Ms. Warren is caused by your fear of her popularity.
