Conservatives, not liberals, should protest ABC over Laura Ingraham

Didn’t your mommy ever tell you two wrongs don’t make a right? Lockett did a despicable thing, but does that justify Oklahoma doing a despicable thing?

I know Chris Hayes didn’t have his present show during the Gosnell era. Did you watch every one of his Saturday morning shows for the last three years? Personally, I watched very few of his Saturday shows.

Chris Hayes comes off as revealing important truths that absolutely need to be
announced to the American public. Which would be OK if he was at least
consistent. His reporting on the botched Oklahoma death penalty case April 30,
2014 is a good example. He brought out many points to support his case: that the criminal suffered, that the State didn’t reveal the drug mixture and so on and so on. Of course Chris Hayes omitted what caused Lockett to be getting the death penalty in the first place:

Stephanie Neiman, 18, was dropping off her friend Summer Bradshaw at that house, and
Lockett and his accomplices tried to take the keys to her new Chevy truck.
Neiman, who graduated from high school only two weeks earlier, fought back, and
the men covered her mouth with duct tape and beat and sexually assaulted her.
They also covered her 18-year-old friend’s mouth with duct tape, and beat and
sexually assaulted her. Both were abducted, along with Bornt and his son.
Lockett and his accomplices drove the four people they kidnapped west of Ponca
City. Lockett asked Neiman if she planned to call the police. She would not say
no, and Mathis spent 20 minutes digging a grave over which Lockett shot Neiman
twice with a sawed-off 12-gauge shotgun, the three other victims later told
authorities. Ms. Neiman was buried alive.

For all of his grandstanding, why isn’t Mr. Hayes equally
outraged by the action of Dr. Gosnell and what he did to LIVE CHILDREN in
Philadelphia? If Mr. Hayes is so righteous, the least he could do is be fair and balanced in his outrage.

Good. Let as much of America as possible see and hear these people. They know what they’re getting on Fox. She might upset a few ABC viewers.

Still a stretch. Randi tells the truth. But yeah, she can be a little less polite than most.

Randy Rhodes is all I can think of.

Don’t be so hard on Laura. Coultergeist is simply Fox’s insurance that they’ll still have a resident crazy once Buchanan goes to that place that Dante wrote about.
Laura replaces ABC’s baseball editor and faux intellectual, Georgie Will. And she is about as faux as you can get. With Cokie off to her retirement home on Morning Joe, Lady Laura is a twofer. She is also the eye candy for their septuagenarian viewers. The fact that she’s bat shit crazy is irrelevant.

you left out plunging neckline and breast exposing

Laura Ingraham is just mad becayse the bimbo blonde slot is filled by Ann Coulter and Liz Cheney who sucks all of the air out of the room as far as blonde bimbos. Not only that but Ann Coulter and LIz Cheney are much smarter that Laura too. So Laura Ingraham is relegated to insignificance and is always in a game of bomb throwing catch up.

I never would have though I’d would have called corpse like Ann Coulter good looking but by comparison Horse face Laura Ingraham loses that battle hands down and the old white male Republicans likes them pretty blonds especially the ones with plunging necklines.

Bloody Billy Kristol, the man who is never right about anything is a deep thinker? Coulda fooled me.

Hate radio’s name was ABC before it was Clear Channel

“On MSNBC, for example, a Democratic guest or contributor is someone preferably under 30, and cute.”

Really?

However, it is interesting that on local news or Fox News, the women anchors dress like they are at a singles cocktail party and the men dress like IBM executives in 1960.

Hate radio comes to ABC.

Back in 2010 I heard Ingraham go on and on about how they suddenly ask all about race in the Census. Never mind that this is a question that has been asked every 10 years starting in 1790 (or that the 2010 census form questions were pretty much settled during the Bush administration). She couldn’t be bothered to inform herself. She just wanted to rant about something so she did. That bears no resemblance to Rachel Maddow’s program which is well-researched. I’d have no problem if she represented liberals on a panel discussion. Ingraham on the other hand is just there for the controversy and they’re going to get it. I guess Mary Cheney wasn’t extreme enough for ABC.

The kind of Republican you are describing only exists in scripted TV shows. Not one of the people I know who used to claim to be Republican will use that term now. They are too embarrassed by the party. Ingraham is a horrible choice, of course. They’ll be ousting her for saying something outrageous by the end of the Year. (Note: I made the same prediction about hot-head Alec Baldwin when msnbc hired him. The result was inevitable.) I’d love the see the short list for who else was considered for this job. Who else is going to be the GOP apologist except one of the loons?

There is no “left wing” equivalent, due to the fact that most left wing commentators, if they exist at all, are sane. I suppose Colbert or Lewis Black, Bill Maher, Sarah Silverman, etc., might be considered liberal pundits–but then they are comedians, aren’t they.
The writer of this piece does not seem to get it that the MSM was bought and sold more than a decade ago. There are no credible teevee “journalists.”

Maybe it’s just as well. After all, vituperative anger is the leading tone coming from the Republican party. It seems to me she can effectively represent the reality of contemporary Republican thinking (if thinking is what it is).

I’ll be no more or less likely to watch their MSM propaganda regardless.

“Laura Ingraham isn’t a deep-thinker like George Will or Bill Kristol or David Frum.”

ouch, that’s a mighty shallow “deep” bar you’ve set for Laura.

Damned liberal media, never letting conservative voices on the air.

///sarcasm off///

Is there a left-wing equivalent to the likes of Laura Ingraham, or the lengthy list of far-right Sunday show pundits? Do we have bomb throwers?
