Zakaria= Apologist. Not serious and typical.

No- They now live as leaders of the House, leaders in Governorships and leaders in State Legislatures!

Ha-ha-ha!

Even when Maher asked BillO about it he admitted it was baloney but wouldn’t go to the point criticizing his fellow pundits and BAchman for being incredibly irresponsible and partisan hacks for repeating such nonsense as if it were fact. He, and Fox tries to avoid responsibility for this kind of thing by saying “Oh they’re opinion shows, not journalists” but even pundits should have some responsibility to offer commentary on facts they’ve made some effort to verify rather than just repeating any piece of negative BS they happen to find, or make up. {back of the Bus}
Especially wingnut Bachman. The next time Beck refers to her as a fine Christian person I hope we’ll remember to look up her long history of lying. I’m not a Christian myself but I thought it required more than lip service.

I like Issa, assuming at this point that he’s sincere. I guess that means he won’t be conservative enough for the Tea Party.

“This is a credible news source now: ‘I read some sh*t on the internet.’ Do you think the right wing lives in a bubble?” Maher asked the panel.”

Bill, ask RM of MSNBC who incorrectly and irresponsibly said a few weeks ago that a Republican Congressman had received advanced notice that the Oklahoma bombing was going to happen!

That’s responsible??

Maddow Falsely Claims Politician Had Advance Warning of Oklahoma City Bombing

Megan McArdle is the business and economics editor for The Atlantic. She has worked at three start-ups, a consulting firm, an investment bank, a disaster recovery firm at Ground Zero, and the Economist.

Oct 20 2010, 11:31 AM ET
I’m pretty sure that this was an error, not a knowing misstatement–when you’re on a daily news cycle, the sad fact is that you probably won’t remember everything you’ve ever said. Nonetheless, this demands a retraction:

On Monday night, Rachel Maddow apparently made the following rather shocking claim:

MADDOW: Yes, this has happened to a smaller degree before. In 1994, in the first mid-term election after the last Democratic president was elected, we got a slate of candidates that included Helen Chenoweth of Idaho and Steve Stockman of Texas. These two were so close to the militia movement in this country that Mr. Stockman actually received advance notice that the Oklahoma City bombing was going to happen.

debunked on the public record for 15 years:

Telephone toll records indicate that the fax was sent about 10:50 a.m. EDT, about 50 minutes after the bombing, a federal official said.

It gets worse. Maddow seems to have known the claim was false when she said it Monday:

Maddow: Back in 1995 on the morning of the Oklahoma City bombing, just after the explosion a member of Congress named Steve Stockman (R-TX) was sent a fax touting the bombing. He was sent that fax by somebody in the militia movement. Mr. Stockman later turned that fax over to the FBI. He was never implicated in any way in the bombing itself. But there is a reason that the militia movement trusted a member of Congress enough to go to him with that. [Emphasis added.]

It’s pretty hard for a public figure to win a defamation case since, under New York Times v. Sullivan, he must prove actual malice. However, having watched both videos to confirm that these two transcriptions are correct, Ms. Maddow may want to familiarize herself with the phrase “reckless disregard for the truth.”*

Whether this was poor fact checking, or sloppy wording, with Maddow meaning to say that he got notice of militia involvement before the media, the implication of what she actually said is that he knew about the attacks before they happened.

Thank you , Zakaria . Now we have the zombie point of view . … Why no Olbermann stories this weekend ? Maybe get his co-nutjob’s take on his firing ? Maddow , O’Donnell , Schultz ,etc .

LOL!

Oh yea, THIS coming from a media industry that has been the ubiquitous voice in advocating a progressive culture – sorry Fareed, you and your ideologically paralyzed compatriots lost credibility a long time ago!

The left is still smarting from their EPIC FAIL this week, so I’m gonna give them a pass for their ignorance this time.

Zakaria should commission a poll that measures what percentage of the left think that 9/11 was an inside job – or that it was actually executed by the “Zionists”. Of course he wouldn’t commission such a poll because as a smart guy – and I’m sure he’s a smart guy – he already knows the answer to that question. Naturally, that is something he wouldn’t want to talk about.

There are crazies on the left and the right – but the ones on the right only seem to get the attention of the national press. I wonder why that is.

The right wing doesn’t even know that when we go to war with Iran (soon), Bill Maher is going to support that war so hard that he will be the right’s new bestest friend.

Republitarian says:

Zakaria should commission a poll that measures what percentage of the left think that 9/11 was an inside job –

Actually there was a comparison a while back and the % of DEMs who think 9/11 was an inside job was higher than those who think BO wasn’t born in the USA. It just doesn’t fit the leftist template, so it isn’t discussed alot.

Does this dude have a green card or papers? LOL.

Why is this entertainment? A bunch of liberals sitting around snickering and lobbing insults at conservatives like a bunch of high school girls laughing and snickering at the girls at the next table during recess. This is what liberalism has become, and this is why it is failing.

….

She did retract that the following day, has Bachmann ever gone back on the crazy things she says?

If you want to read a book written by a borderline personality disorder mental case, read Zakaria’s book “America in the Future” or whatever. In a previous lifetime, I was a Middle East expert and read/speak Arabic. Zakaria’s book has more [non-typo] errors on the Middle East than is credible for a so-called “foreign policy expert.” He and Amanpour are two America-hating morons who should go back to their home countries [India & Iran] and do their America-hating from a neutral corner.

Sadly, Maher and a lot of stupid Americans feel the same way. Zakaria should be taken off the air.

I mean, really. The only ones going ‘mental’ out there are the leftist media hacks, who are all in various stages of apoplectic rage over the proven myth that is ‘Liberalism.’ They know, like we all do, that Libs cannot come back a second time promising all the ‘good’ that Liberalism supposedly brings. Everyone will shout them down by screaming, ‘We just got force-fed your snake-oil and it FAILS.’

Now that’s funny.

Just following the liberal line. Do we truly care what some foreigner has to say? I know I don’t. I’m more interested in what Issa had to say. I want to hear him say we will be investigating the Whitehouse. Time to make little Barry pay the piper.

Yea the crazy people are running the house now,way to go.

Zakaria hits gold again! It’s like the right has no concept of facts or research! LMAO! That and they just don’t care what the facts are.

Just look in this thread for proof, everyone just attacks the “liberal” instead of bothering to comment on what he says.

It speaks to how INSECURE you all are in what you believe. You feel OFFENDED by the beliefs of others, so offended you can’t even address what he says.

Can’t say I’m surprised though, The Republicans are the biggest group of wimps I’ve ever seen. All they do is complain “OMG IM GOING TO DIE FROM A TERRORIST”, OMG THE MUSLIMS ARE COMING!, OMG MEXICANS! OMG POOR PEOPLE GET WELFARE! OMG Obama is LOWERING TAXES FOR MIDDLE CLASS PPL AND NOT THE RICH.. OMG RICH PEOPLE = MONEY FOR EVERYONE. (this runs 24/7 in a Republicans brain)

Republicans = BIggest f*cking babies in Modern American history. Lose the election, cry about it for two f*cking years. Lose to Clinton? Make his entire presidency about a BJ. Now watch as they cry when they realize that they don’t get to do whatever they want just because they are running the house. XD

People laugh at the Dems but the Dems aren’t hiding from the truth all of their lives, the Republicans have to sit around making excuses for their disgusting actions and policies. They are just sabotaging their legacy though, and when they die, our country will look back at this time and say “THESE MEN DID NOTHING TO HELP AMERICA”.

Hilarious, Jon. You say that conservatives generalize, then proceed to do the same thing. Great satire.

You’re an idiot beamangrow. Nuff said.

The answer to the question is yes

Not satire :) Republicans in Congress, and most I’ve had the displeasure of talking to on forums are pitifully ignorant on almost every issue. Not their fault though, the Republicans in Congress make you guys believe whatever they want. Republicans have no morality anymore, they have no problem being against black people, muslims, or latinos… and that’s why all those people don’t vote Republican… cause Republicans are messed up. Duh.

So that’s why the Dems took a bath on Tuesday. Too much morality.

Oh I forgot, that Republicans don’t really like gay people either.. or.. anyone that is different from them.

That’s the “insecure” thing I was talking about.

If you are scared of gay people and they offend you, you PROBABLY want to have sex with the same sex. Otherwise, why would you care? Most likely, Republicans that come out against homosexual rights have a deep-seated desire to experiment with homosexuality.. but are afraid they are gay.

How many gay Republicans here? Show of hands?

don’t really like gay people either

Stop talking about Islam like that. It’s bigoted.

Jon says;

Funny, if I’m not mistaken, the R’s voted in more minorities than the Dems.

Speaking on the matter is one of our newly elected Repulican’s, Allen West:

Being the most moral doesn’t mean you win. Morality is not capitalism.. if it was, the Republicans would have went out of business long ago.

Writer,
Did you hear, more gays voted R this election than ever before? Jon, your “arguments” are being blown out of the water by facts you say our side ignores. Perhaps you are projecting.

So you’re against capitalism. I see.

Republicans don’t want gays to get married, serve in the military, or be able to see their loved ones in emergencies. Please try harder if you plan to debate someone, you’re clearly out of your league :) You’re a Republican though, maybe I should give you a handicap, I know that your side doesn’t openly converse about things with the other side usually. Unless it’s one-line insults or false arguments.

I’ve been watching Republicans project since Obama was in office, calling him racist, saying he’s destroying the constitution (torture anyone?), that he wasn’t an American citizen (xenophobia), that he’s a nazi (what?). Meanwhile everything people say about him is PROJECTING or what REPUBLICANS did while Bush was in office.

DO you forget Bush did the first bailout? The patriot act? Started 2 wars? Put us trillions in debt? Now we have to clean up but the Republicans are STOPPING the cleanup to make things even worse. wouldn’t it be funny if Republicans cheered on the new House, but then the Republicans actually RUINED the country? I hope not, I’d rather be wrong.

But please “Seeing 2012 from my window” kindly, stfu. I see your points all of this forum and I can’t say I’ve seen you make one good point, or even one interesting point. You’re just like every other deluded, projecting Republicans. You’re projecting that I’m projecting, it’s like a paradox or something XD

IT’S FIVE O’CLOCK SOMEWHERE !

Let’s see. Farrakhan and the Nation of Islam supported Obama, and Islam is very anti-gay, and yet all supporters of Democrats are gay-friendly. Something isn’t quite adding up.

writer said:

See, Republicans are always confused. I rest my case.

I hope Fareed Zakaria never contributes to a campaign. He wouldn’t want to expose any bias he has towards a political party.

Seriously, how does a supposed “journalist” go on national TV and call conservatives/Republicans mental ward patients and not lose their job? This is much worse than giving $2,400 to a Democrat’s campaign in upholding any journalistic credibility.

Yeah, Jon. I was wrong. Muslims love gays. Jews, too.

Funny, I didn’t think the republicans where the only ones that voted. I think it was the independents that voted the republicans into office. 725 days to go… :o)

writer said:

Yeah but Christians think all Jews are going to hell, and they think Muslims all want to wage Jihad.

Christians in the US are burning the Koran.

That’s terrorism if you ask me, trying to scare Muslims by burning their religious books. How disrespectful and dangerous for our troops, who are helping Muslims. Our troops are helping those people, how can you be burning their religious books?

He’s not talking about all conservative republicans. They were specifically talking about the 200 mil a day bullshit that was repeated as if factual. I think the question is why aren’t people smart enough to realize not everything they see repeated on the internet and by political pundits is true or honest. Bachman, Beck, Limbaugh and whomever the others were that kept repeating that nonsense need to be called out for repeating total hogwash. I think it’s a problem when our elected officials are afraid to openly criticize pundits, and because of that fear, lies are fostered and spread as truth.

Jon, you were insinuating that every Democratic voter is pro-gay. I was merely pointing out a few Democrats who aren’t.

jon doesn’t defend his position, he just changes the subject lol

yeah jon we all think that way, damn , you caught us

I realize that by pointing out that the Nation of Islam backed Democrats, it’s destroying Jon’s Kumbahyah vision of the Democratic Party. There aren’t supposed to be any haters in the ‘enlightened’ party.

there are haters in both parties, hell you have to be blind not to see it, however i do find it funny that both sides say your haters are worse than mine lol

Hating Jews or the white race somehow doesn’t count as hate. Also, Muslim views on gays don’t count.

So , I think I have this straight, Jon here, hates republicans and believes that all conservatives hate all people, pretty much. Is that it?

It’s like George always said…..Jerry, it’s never a lie as long as you believe it.

Let’s review

All Christians believe the Jews are going to Hell huh? Really, did you conduct a survey on this asshole?
And that ALL Muslims want to wage Jihad too…. huh, that might make working with them tomorrow a little difficult. I have to evaluate that team meeting I had planned.

You obnoxious preaching prick. Are you close to any sharp objects?

And then, this gem……Christians in the US are burning the Koran.

You know you may be right about this one. God knows down at my Church we fry books every week. But please do tell us where the 76% of the US or approximately 240,000,000 Christians are doing the Fireworks this weekend because I think Al Gore may want to weigh in on that.

“That’s terrorism if you ask me, trying to scare Muslims by burning their religious books. How disrespectful and dangerous for our troops, who are helping Muslims. Our troops are helping those people, how can you be burning their religious books”

After his huge statements of insanity, he covers himself in the flag and the troops. See, it is all about the troops. Well Jon that saves you buddy. Now I am convinced that you are right and your statements are lucid. I am also convinced that you need therapy.

The majority of Americans are centrist Conservatives, and this idiot insults us by saying we are living in a metal institution?! And he says that while he’s on the Bill Mahar show? The “Cuckoo’s Nest”, of Progressive sycophants” !! I guess he didn’t want to upset nurse Ratchet (Mahar) ?

CosmosDan, you just got caught in a lie!

If the Republicans in Congress belong in a mental institution, then it will be on the public dime. Despite calling for the repeal of the ‘socialist’ Health Care Reform Act, none to my knowledge has refudiated their very generous, taxpayer-subsidized, federal health care insurance plans. Or has rejected their bountiful federal pensions.

As far the Republicans belonging in a mental institution, I must strongly disagree. The cited statements are not the product of mental imbalance. They are well calculated, Rovian, and intended to put the Obama administration and the Dems on the constant defensive regardless of the statements’ accuracy. In fact, the more outrageous the statements, the better for the Republicans because it is the outrageous statement which sticks in people’s memory regardless of the truth or falsity thereof.

Liberal zealots just don’t get it. America said NO to your name calling, your bitterness, your welfare-state mentality. It’s time you and your friends put down your bombs, clamped your lips shut and got jobs. I know it’s not going to be easy, especially since your president has dug us such an economic hole.

Tax-n-spend, that’s what demorcats do and that’s what democrats do best. And that is the one thing your president does best (although he’s a**-backwards on it-Bam likes to put us all in debt and then tell us we need to pay his bills), spend, spend, spend…tax, tax, tax.

Same mental institution you and Bill are in, Fareed.

Hey Fareed, in case you are not aware, you are on a cable network that nobody watches anymore. Going on a comedy show doesn’t help you out either. Since I haven’t watched CNN in a long time (too damn boring) I don’t know if you are aware that The United States of America just had an election and The Right Wing Conservatives won in a landslide. These same people believe in our Constitution. You know, THE Constitution of THE United States of America that allows you Freedom of speech. You might want to reconsider saying that a large part of America lives in an insane asylum. Kind of turns people off…some of whom may actually suffer through your show. Not good for ratings when you act so stupidly goofy. Just ask the wackos over at msnbc. Just a thought, Fareed, from a True American Patriot. I will fight to my death defending your Right of Free Speech…just don’t get carried away with it, ok!

P.S. — Remember Fareed, to check for stampeding Elephants, Cape Buffalo, and angry ‘RINOs’, errrrrrrr, rhino’s before yelling fire in that crowded theater.

Having this lot in a Mental institution? Thats so not fair on the patients.

“Hey Fareed, in case you are not aware, you are on a cable network that nobody watches anymore.”

irrelevant.

“Since I haven’t watched CNN in a long time (too damn boring)”

telling.

“You know, THE Constitution of THE United States of America that allows you Freedom of speech. You might want to reconsider..”

How does the guy on a website forum tell the guy on TV how to do his job? XD. Hey, internet guy who can barely spell, thanks for the heads up on how to get on television.. Oh wait, Fareed already did that, you’re the one on a message board.

Bill Maher’s ratings have been going up for the last few months, so anyone saying people don’t enjoy Bill Maher or these segments, isn’t paying attention to what’s actually going on in the television world.

The Left is in such DENIAL. Republicans are simply asking for responsible, more accountable government, and don’t want to borrow another $100 billion from the Chinese each month to prop up broken Democrat programs. And all the Left can do is respond with name calling. This is why they got shellacked in the election last week.

I watched this episode, and the thing that struck me is the fundamental dishonesty of most of the participants. Do liberals REALLY think that calling Obama a “socialist” is as deranged as lefties* claiming the Bush admin. orchestrated 9.11? First of all, their being disingenuous about how THEY themselves regard the accusation. Most liberals wish Obama were actually more socialist and less pragmatist. And what is a socialist? It’s not evil to believe in that idea. And it’s certainly not the most scurrilous accusation that can be leveled at Obama. So I say fooey!

Oh that asterisk after lefties was sposed to indicate that some far right-wingers (e.g. Alex Jones) also subscribe to the idiotic thought.

Oh, and, lefties, calling people who disagree with you crazy isn’t a winning political strategy.

I just asked my pet rock if it ever had any original ideas or is it just crap in a toilet bowl waiting to be flushed…and Jon Martin (the name of my pet rock in case anyone was not aware) said it was just waiting to be flushed into the sewer. KaWhosssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssshhhh…bye-bye little pet rock aka Jon Martin.

BTW, I may have failed to mention that my pet rock is, errrrr, ‘was’, an imbecilic, idiotic, moronic, ignoramus. Man this place smells better already. Too bad it never learned proper English. After all this is America and our language is English…!

?? Did they make this direct comparison?
Making realistic observations about the extent of socialism already in operation, or thinking Obama wants to make take it even further is perfectly fair. With Beck talking about NAzi Germany and making Marxist fascist references about twice a day we get into the fear mongering lunatic fringe. When elected officials are booed by their constituents for suggesting people turn Beck off to get a more realistic view of things we can see how things are getting more distorted.

CosmosDan, you just got caught in a lie!

Context , look it up. Then check out what Bill says just before he says the right wing. You may disagree but it seems to me that Fareed is referring to the batshit crazy examples given by Bill. I also suggest that maybe people out to be far more concerned about elected officials spouting that crazy shit, and being afraid of right wing pundits. You might be concerned about the quality of candidates who are willing to encourage and appeal to extreme views rather than actually be a leader and speak out against them.

While you’re at it why the hell don’t you and other posters learn what a lie is and the difference between a lie and a possible mistake. Stop thinking being ignorant is being a good partisan.
