Talk about being unfair to the congressman…

Journalists aren’t supposed to give ANYONE the benefit of the doubt, simply because they agree politically.

THAT’S what made Joan look stupid.

Not Anthony Wiener. Joan made Joan look stupid.

Joan Walsh To Ed Schultz: Rep. Weiner ‘Made Me Look Stupid’

Yeah . But you were stupid to start out with .

Yep, Weiner made her look stupid!

Plus she LIED about Breitbart!

Joan is stupid.

What truly bothers her is that Andrew Breitbart revealed her to be more kneejerk/ reflexive than an amoeba.

Don’t be to hard on yourself, Joan.
If it makes you feel better, you actually been stupid for a very very very very very long time.
So buck up and be the proud dummy that you are.

Joan, in this regard, you have done well on your own without the help of Weiner.

Uh hoh my god….they STILL defend him. Press and Walsh wouldn’t care if he was caught hiding in a girl’s junior high locker room they would still say he doesn’t need to resign.
“He says he was looking for the men’s room and I believe him.”

Joan was also pretty funny telling us that she rejected the story because of who the source was. Apparently facts do not matter if the wrong people present them. Andrew Breitbart humiliated the entire state run media machine proving once again that they will never investigate one of their own no matter how big the story. Walsh and others circled the wagons to protect Weiner and they got punked.

Ha Ha!

Oh Joan, you don’t any help.

Frances Martel said:
She did, in her defense, note that “this was brought to light for political reasons”

Frances, what the heck is this “in her defense” stuff? She has no defense. She knee jerk defended Weiner and joined in the Breitbart smear campaign feet first. She has NO DEFENSE.

brownsound said:

Oh Joan, you don’t need any help

I think we can all agree that Joan Walsh doesn’t need help from anyone to make herself look stupid.

No Joan, you made yourself look stupid. Anyone with half a brain could see that the tool sent the pic, not because of ‘feelings’ but because there is no way that someone hacked his account and then he tweeted four MINUTES later. Not possible. What was the most logical answer? He made a mistake. Meant to send a DM and instead made it public. A week of lies and then what was the real truth? The aforementioned obvious answer.

When you hear hoofbeats think horses, not zebras. Instead of blaming anyone, including Weiner, look in the mirror and ask yourself when you stopped being a journalist. Follow the facts where they lead you, instead of trying to manipulate facts and cram them into the tiny box of your political preference.

no joan you look ugly and you are stupid.

Joan is actually quite bright… despite the oddly similar simple hum here to the contrary.

Greg said:

Quite bright for a stupid, partisan ditz.

Not doing your job, and letting your bias cloud your judgement is what made you look stupid, Joan.

“I gave him the benefit of the doubt publicly and pointed to the motivations of the people who were bringing this to light.”

In other words you were not being objective, and not approaching both sides of the story with skepticism. You looked at Weiner’s side of the story with optimism and hoped he was telling the truth, and putting faith in a vanity-corrupted politician got your backside burned. Don’t blame him, the mirror is making you look stupid at the moment.

She didn’t need Weiner to make her look stupid.

Albert Moore said:

Maybe if she got more Weiner, she’d be less stupid.

Plus, if you look “hard” it’s kind of a knock on her looks too, implying that she’s too freaking ugly to get laid. Right?

Weiner should resign.

Democrats shouldn’t act the same way that the stinking Republican hypocrites act when they get caught with their pants down, they’re better than that.

“FAMILY VALUES” REPUBLICAN JOHN ENSIGN : got caught banging his best friend and top assistants wife, used his family to buy off her silence and used his high gov’t position (Senator) to get her husband/his top assistant an illegal lobbying job. Not ONE single Republican called on Ensign to resign and Ensign himself didn’t resign until he realized that he was only days away from being expelled from congress.

“FAMILY VALUES” REPUBLICAN MARK SANFORD : used state funds to fly to Argentina and bang his mistress multiple times. Sanford refused to resign and not ONE single Republican called on him to resign.

“FAMILY VALUES” REPUBLICAN DAVID VITTER : got caught soliciting prostitutes (besides sex, he also specifically asked the prostitutes to put diapers on him and spank him) in both DC and New Orleans. Vitter refused to resign and not ONE Republican called on him to resign.

Suck on it Teatard yokels!

“I looked kind of stupid” -Joan Walsh

Kind of? Kind of? Your intellectual poverty is noted, and mocked. The only brain that exists in Joan’s tiny little head belongs to the fly that’s buzzing around in it.

Walsh, the partisan hack, distrusts any reportage coming from another partisan hack who happens to be of the other political party. What a hoot. But she believes the lies of a politician whose story had more holes in it than a swiss cheese. It wasn’t Weiner who made her look stupid. She did that all on her own–and she’s still doing it.

yah but how do you feel about Joan? Should she resign? lol

obviously joan hasn’t been a similar situation as anthony’s.

how does one appropriately handle a barrage of puerile, voyeuristic inanity
like that which mr. weiner endured?

i personally don’t see anything wrong in wooing women the way mr. weiner did.

people engage in erotic behavior all the time, and in myriad ways.

if mr. weiner did something unethical, then we really need to take a harder look
at what “unethical” actually means.

this is kitten’s play compard to actual unethical behavior. this is junior high level
puerility.

weiner is a formidable figure, and he’s on our side.

he should not resign.

in fact, now that 1/2 the country is against him, what he should do now
is up the ante: he should fight like hell until his next election to raise taxes on those
making over 150,000/year AND a single payer system. he should go on
fox news every single night and just humiliate the sh*t out of them.

then, once he’s voted out of office, he should get his own show on MSNBC
and, again, humiliate the sh*t out of every knuckle-dragging conservative
trying to destroy america.

go anthony!

Another revealing interview on MSNBC. Walsh isn’t upset that Weiner sent lewd photos to woman. She isn’t upset that he slandered Andrew Breitbart. She isn’t upset that he lied to his constituents.

She’s upset at him he made the liberal media look like fools.

And that’s the state of the liberal media — no moral values other than their own smugness and vanity. The liberal media has built their whole shtick on ridiculing others, and there’s nothing they hate more than when they get ridiculed. And that’s why they won’t forgive Weiner. Not for all his creepy behavior — they would accept that in a heartbeat — but because he made them look bad.

ok drop the thesaurus – old and very lame.
Mr. Weiner lied. In most peoples lexicon a lie is indicative of either having done something that they are ashamed of (as he stated) or thinking that one is above the fray and his behaviour is none of anyone’s business (again wrong).

Darla – you are completely off the mark here girlfriend. What do you Mom and Dad think? Do they know you think this is appropriate behaviour for a 45 year old newly married man? Most people draw the line at 18 – the cut off date for excused stupidity.

She is beyond contempt. She is insulted because she bought the b.s.? How about her behaviour mocking anyone who didn’t agree with her? How about her dunning and making false statements about Breitbart? The least of her problems is looking stupid. A pompous know-it-all who would normally deny her previous statement and behaviour, but she can’t because it’s on record.

The sad fact is that nobody is ever going to take Weiner seriously. No matter how many “good deeds” you think he accomplished, he’s now tainted goods and they will all steer clear of him. Similar to a leper in the olden days. Sad but true and he self destructed.

who decides what is “inappropriate”?

i personally don’t see anything wrong with what he did. ok?

you’re not going to change my mind here.

weiner is being unfairly targeted.

every single politician has made “inappropriate” decisions.

but where is breitbart? nowhere to be found except peering
through the bedroom windows of left-leaning democrats who
fight for the middle class.

gee darla – breitbart was all over everyone’s t.v. this evening. He’s not hiding anywhere.

who decides what is “inappropriate”? The public. We live by a moral code. We are not animals, we are humans, civilized humans. We control our impulses. We do not post nude pictures of ourselves and then act outraged when the pictures although supposedly sent to a “friend” suddenly come into the public domain for all to see. Weiner made poor choices. Not one of those women would he take home to Mother. They were using him because of his high profile and he was using them for his sexual fantasies.

So, you are madly in love and sext your boyfriend. One month later, the love has worn out and you go on with your life. Many years later, you become a public figure and carry yourself with dignity and grace. Suddenly, out of the blue, your sext message and photos of a compromised position appear on the front page of a newspaper. You have no recourse. You can scream till you are blue in the face that you are no longer that silly girl of x years ago. You are done – finished and basically you did it to yourself. Weiner chose women with absolutely no moral compass. They were willing to sully their names in order to get money or instant notoriety. Poor choices – cost him dearly.

This new instant media is exactly that – new. Safeguards and rules and laws governing its use are not yet available. Technology is well ahead of any “brakes” that will surely come along. In the mean time – parents must warn their children that it is a dangerous world out there and unscrupulous people will take advantage of them. You don’t ever send someone something that you would not share with the general public. Sad but true – where there is any room for corruption (especially financial) it will occur.

I lost all hope in Joan Walsh when Morning Joe tore her apart last year when they asked if any MSNBC host had a bias of being liberal. When she said NO , my mouth dropped, and I just put her in the “im liberal, get used to it” category….

Guess she lived upto it….

darladoon said:

With his dik pic in the background? Let us know when he hires you to be his pr manager. LOL!

By the way Joan, It’s not Weiner that made you look stupid. It was your decision to be a democrat that drove that nail into the coffin.

“I looked kind of stupid” she admitted.

You should be used to it by now. You should have at least realized the day he said he couldn’t be sure the junk was his he was lying. But nope, your hyper-partisanship kept you in his corner until the very end.

It’s pissed off Dems that are going to do Weiner in. The GOP should just sick back and shut up and get a big tub of popcorn and watch the fireworks.

Joan Walsh doesn’t only looks stupid, I think she really is, at least by her own judgement. There was overwhelming evidence that it WAS Rep. Anthony Weiner’s photo and that HE sent it to the girl, and absolutely NO evidence to the contrary; yet she supported him by giving benefit of the doubt when it wasn’t necessary.

Something walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, looks like a duck and swims like a duck; yet you still give it the benefit of the doubt that it isn’t a duck because you are a Liberal? These people crack me up sometimes.

When you are on the Left of Ed Schultz on an issue, I guess you should have your head examined. You don’t get any more Liberal or Progressive than Ed as far as the media is concerned.

I don’t know if Comcast or Ed Schultz’s suspension had anything to do with his recent demeanor, but personally I noticed Ed is becoming more of a sane human being lately. I predict it wont last long though.

Well Joan, the Weiner story is all about you, isn’t it?
I am amazed that Joan didn’t take the opportunity to find a way to gush over Obama or call Republicans and Tea Partiers racist. She didn’t even do some of her standard name calling. However. she did get in some Clinton praise and cover though.

Bill Press was the incredible one here, to me. He said “nobody has suggested that” Weiner did anything illegal?! If he honestly believes that, he hasn’t researched the Weiner story enough to comment on it at the tavern, let alone a national news show. He also said Weiner is “stronger now than he ever was before”. If that doesn’t demonstrate that he is so delusional that he requires a mental exam, I don’t know what does.
The real problem is that this sort of commentary is every day fair from Bill Press and Joan Walsh. They are an embarrassment to the news industry.

Joan Walsh is to the left what Dan Quale used to be to the right: a bulb burning so obviously dim that it is oddly entertaining to watch them labor through a thought and an interview.

“Salon’s Joan Walsh To Ed Schultz: Rep. Weiner ‘Made Me Look Stupid’

No, she did that all on her own.

“I looked kind of stupid” she admitted, to which Schultz asked her to expand on why. “I gave him the benefit of the doubt publicly and pointed to the motivations of the people who were bringing this to light… he lied and that’s the worst thing.”

No, she looked very stupid. She wasn’t interested in discovering the facts, she was interested in protecting a fellow liberal, and smearing Conservatives.

Ed still trying to figure out if he was hacked? did i hear that right?

*he isn’t a hypocrite because liberals have no values, anyway* what kind of argument is that?

OMG. Bill Press is living in la-la land.

Why the hello does he think Weiner copped to it? Because he KNEW Breitbart has the naked pic. And what about the chat rolls? goooooood lordie, wake up! They just won’t give up defending him.

Right wing politics… *eyeroll* Still finding ways to try and blame the Right.

Clinton was in his second term as POTUS wasn’t he, when Lewinsky scandal rolled out?

I’m glad Ed was there to witness what hapless id iots he regularly hosts on his show.

LOGICandREASON said:

You’re right. When Ed said that it “has nothing to do with Left or Right” I was pleasantly surprised. I’ll continue giving him the benefit of the doubt about improving.

Wow Schultz has come out swinging like a regular right winger.

Anyway, this Joan broad is a clown. Lacking the personal responsibility trait like all liberals, maybe she should feel stupid because she couldn’t see what was obvious. If you want to hear the defense Weiner was throwing out there last week and give him the benefit of the doubt, well then you just showed horrific judgment and maybe deserved to be burned.

If I was Joan Walsh,
I DON’T THINK I WOULDA SAID THAT !!!

No surprise here, Joan Walsh was and is a paid Progressive tool, and she just earned another check from the hard left…the check on her credibility however, bounced. My favorite part was her excuse that because Weiner never professed any behavioral or moral compass, the rest of us should not hold him to one either.

Also in the news; The Polls in NYC are going heavily against the Weiner, with 70-90% wanting him to resign.

Stop bashing Weiner!! We need to be bashing our Leftist inbred of a president, Obamo, instead. Get the little pencil-necked geek off the media cycle and return to bludgeoning Obamo instead. Leftist media hacks are in self-immolation mode now as they decide whether to lead with one story of a Leftist disaster or another. Tee Hee!

No Joan, he didn’t make you do it; you made yourself do it. The media has pretty much abdicated its responsibility where any democrat is concerned — by and large and for the most part, they are kindred spirits and therefore extend the benefit of the doubt. They only look at conservatives with skepticism.

You have only yourself to blame Joan for your embarrassment.

How about doing your job, and instead of protecting and defending the lies of the DNC, how about standing up to them andasking questions, looking at them with the same level of skepticism you lookat republicans.

Geeze, what a bunch of morons live in the media, between Joan and Woffie, you got a bunch of mediidiots.

Fact: Look Joan you are the important one here when it comes to the story covered.

That poll sounds more like it, I hope your right, but I think I saw one that said 51% think he should stay. A sick city this NY.

Walsh needs help looking stupid? Come on; she does that very well on her own.

She makes herself look stupid on a daily basis.

“At least they could say he lied under oath. That was their cover.”

Yeah, the felony Clinton committed was someone else’s cover. Walsh is a truly stupid bint. She doesn’t need Anthony Weiner to make her look stupid, all she needs is someone looking.

So Walsh is blaming Weiner for her jouranlistic failures?!

“Among them tonight was Salon’s Joan Walsh, who told Ed Schultz on MSNBC tonight that he made her “look stupid” for giving him the benefit of the doubt”

Ah Joan, it is Liberal DNA that makes you look stupid. You libs surround the waggons think you will always find a “Right Wing Conspiracy” or a “Racist” in the crowd doing something against you.

Who is inside of Big Ed’s head…it sure isn’t the old Big Ed – but when this blows over….I am confident the old one will return.

Yeah I hear ya. It could be that Weiner was so pathetic with his lying defense last week that like even Pelosi, some lefties are just stating the obvious. But more importantly, maybe he is in the process of saving himself from the mental disease of liberalism. It does happen you know.

Schultz is adapting to the corporate roll. I listened to him on Airless America & back to back to Rush. They sounded quite similar in tone and comments. Of course Schultz comments were more in the lefty avenue but not bomb throwing a** wipe wacko. Joan doesn’t need help exposing her stupidity. Just read Salon and you’ll see she’s surrounded by bomb throwers equal in denial about her parties morals, values and ethics.

Is that called “eating your young”? How pathetic and tragic – they now release the dirt they had on him all along.

Ed and Sally Kohn had the better argument. This is a matter of fundamental trust. During the Lewinsky scandal, a liberal friend of mine tried to qualify Clinton’s perjury by claiming the false statements under oath were only “sex lies” instead of plain “lies.” Everyone lies to their spouse about sexual matters, she reasoned.

This is the reasoning of Joan Walsh. Weiner hasn’t been shown to have neglected his job, she says. This idea will be ruinous to the D’s if Weiner hangs on thru the 2012 election.

Press is just a dunce. It doesn’t matter what Weiner did, Press reasons, because he was uncovered by a right-winger for political reasons. For someone in the media not to understand this basic 1st Amend right to point out such things is shocking. He is too busy being a partisan to be a journalist. Same for Walsh.

Joan’s complaint reminds me of that line from a Monty Python film: “She turned me into a newt!”

How come this one did not get censored like the one on the other thread? Are any of you seeing your posts held up in “moderation”? I had a post that was positive to Palin the other day (censored) and just now one that was objective as to Rick perry that was also censored. Do you have to be a lefty to post here?

Walsh doesn’t look stupid because Weiner lied. Walsh looks stupid because it was so obvious that he was lying, and yet she chose to believe him and viciously attack people who didn’t believe him. She looks stupid because she let her political biases interfere with her better judgment.

Dear Joan,

That’s not quite the apology Breitbart deserves from you, bitch.

Sincerely,
America

Do you have to be a lefty to post here?

I think it helps. The other day I had a one word post. It said ‘Yaaaay’. It got censored.

Salon’s Joan Walsh To Ed Schultz: Rep. Weiner ‘Made Me Look Stupid’

NO… he didn’t. You do that everyday all on your own. You need NO help from ANYONE.

Anyone with a brain in her head could see from the start that Weiner’s clumsy answers were an obvious attempt to obfuscate his culpability. If she truly believed Weiner, then she deserves to look like the idiot she is. I suspec,t however t,hat she never really believed his story. I love how liberals are always the victim. Never mind about Weiner’s wife at home, poor Joan Walsh was victimized. Puh-leeze.

I have not seen any logical pattern regarding the censoring of posts here. Last week I tried to post a well reasoned reply, on topic and documented, to another post, with no vulgarity or profanity, no name calling, while all around the insults, profanity, and smug condescensions were sailing through. My post was held for “moderation” and never saw the light of day.

I’m getting the same thing, it’s a bunch of nonsense. Short post with nothing to them wind up in “moderation” while some bigger ones go rite through. Seems like searching at airports, simple hit or miss attempts to catch something.

Joan Walsh does not look stupid, she is ridiculous. He lied, but she is responsible for her actions. Her mistakes were many, and they were deep. She has no integrity as a person. If she did, she would acknowledge her own mistakes and learn from it. She does neither.

As to Shultz, he says in the clip that the House invesigation is to determine whether his Twitter account was hacked. Well, idiot, that is already known!. Rep. Weiner announced it clearly at the big press conference. Everyone BUT Shultz knows it since the guy admitted it was big lie.

Honestly, how do people watch MSNBC anymore. It’s one thing to hope and support, it is simply asinine to point at the sky and pretend it is not blue.

Exactly. While am socially liberal, I’m conservative because people who blame ‘the world’ and ‘society’ for their own bad choices and those of others simply are using an excuse to not take responsibility for their own actions. He didn’t make you look stupid, you did. Like you say, she needs no help to look like an idiot. Once he stated he didn’t know if the picture was of him, etc, every sensible person knew.

I wonder the same thing. Since you really did have to be an idiot, after his interviews at least, to not see the lying. Yet, she continued to blame breitbart. At that point, it seems more strategy than blindness to facts.

No Joan, it doesn’t make you look stupid. It makes you look like exactly what you are: a knee jerk, finished the KoolAid, liberal ideologue. Just admit that no apology or admission of stupidity is necessary. I’m not sure how you can’t know what so many of us do.

I noticed how Joan pointed out that Weiner wasn’t a hypocrite because he didn’t have a family value stances. That’s why liberal don’t stand for anything.. It’s easier… And they like using that word against conservatives whenever they get the chance. … They can handle being called a creep but never a hypocrite.

Joan doesn’t support calling for a creep to resign but now if he were a creepy hypocrite she would be at the head of the line calling for his resignation.

Is she really blaming someone for looking stupid?

Weiner made the entire Left look stupid, especially the “so-called press”! Nancy Pelosi, on the other hand, is a continuous embarrassment. She’s asking for an investigation because she knows that it’s a long drug-out process that might give Weiner enough time for the story to fade away.

Oops…you stepped into that one, Joan.

This woman was born stupid…and everyday she continues to perfect stupidity! Joan, it’s a gift…

And of course, Ed was named after a horse…

MSNBC, the gift that keeps on giving!

Yes. He’s a disgrace and made fools of any and all of us who were big enough to give him the benefit of the doubt. I’m updating my blog post to reflect this. BTW, wher I go on the internet, some people say Weiner is a republican, and others say he’s a democrat. It seems nobody wants to claim him as belonging to either party.

BTW, I took the word of the girl who said there were no suggestive tweets between her and Weiner, I had no idea if Weiner was lying about the hacked account or not. So why would anyone say he didn’t sleeze-tweete when he actually did? The problem remains, the young girls who got dragged into this were horribly treated. Weiner, shame on you for being such a lying sleeze. Though I don’t see how, as one commenter above says, he made fools of the left. He only gave them more ammo to lulz@ and shoot republicanism with.

And this Joan-flamefest is stupid. The fact is, Weiner lied, he betrayed all republicans and anyone on the non-left, he also violated some standards the non-left are supposed to uphold, like, don’t lie and don’t exploit children and don’t be indecent. He might not have made Joan look stupid, but he made her feel stupid, and you flaming gits are continuing his mission by flaming her right here. Shame on you people.

I agree with Ed, it is all about the lying. Joan Walsh is stupid, but Bill Press is ridiculous. Ed is right, they are in denial.

I heard the “x-rated photo” is out there, if so, Press owes Ed a mea culpa.

Mmmmmm…the Libs are eating each other. I have my popcorn and am waiting for the second act…hehehehe

Hey Joan, you WERE stupid to believe Congressman Weiner. Don’t worry about it though. Reflexively defending prominent Democrats is what you guys at Salon DO.
