Just give a link, Damo. There's no way in hell that you just "remembered" something that happened in 1995 on an obscure Sunday show appearing on PBS that lie 11 people in the country actually watched when it aired. Let's get real.

LMAO.... AGAIN with your fucking ignorance? Why is it that you think NO ONE can remember what happened in the past? Is it because you are too intellectually challenged to do so?

I recall everyone mocking Billy Carter for Billy Beer... did I get that from a current article? OR IS IT A FUCKING MEMORY?

You half wit.

You're a total jackass. Here's a newsflash for you: Juan Williams has been a FOXNews contributor for like 10 years. If his working for FOX were really that big of an issue his ass would have been canned a long time ago. Yes, he was fired for speaking his mind. That's quite the point. And NPR is not government owned and run. It just isn't.

By the way, your right-wing freakshow is shining through again.

As NPR drifts further and further to the left, it becomes more of an issue. The escalation of irrational hatred of anything and everything FOX has taken place over the past 10 years. It is a relatively new cause of the left to demonize Fox. They were simply looking for an excuse. Mara better have her head on a swivel an mind that she doesn't actually share her opinions. She is next up.

Can't have those blacks or women speaking their mind if they might dare contradict the 'acceptable' views of the far left.

MUSLIMS ATTACKED US! That is a FACT! It shouldn't be politically incorrect to say that! Granted, they were radical Muslims, extremists, maybe even fringe extremists, but they were indeed Muslims! Why is THAT bigoted or prejudiced? When the Japanese attacked us at Pearl Harbor, did we say it was "radical" Japanese? I suspect there were a great many Japanese who didn't approve of the attack, but it doesn't change the fact of who attacked us!

And one of the real differences here is that we actually did paint ALL Japanese with a broad brush and imprisoned Japanese Americans. Thus far we have not done that in this instance. My problem is, when pearl harbor was attacked, it was not the Japanese people that attacked us. It was the nation of Japan. It was easy to pin point the enemy. Yes it was men of the Moslem faith that attacked us, but it was not Islam that attacked us. The unfortunate thing is too many people feel this is a war with Islam and not a war with Al Qaeda and other terrorist organizations. We have to learn to fight a battle with an army that has no territory, no central government, or we run the risk of making all Muslims our enemy which they are not.

 

[Damocles]

The prejudicial generalization of an entire group of people based solely on their religion.

To be fair, he did it both ways. After he said "Muslims attacked us," he qualified it with "I really like Muslims, though"....

Again, that is a different topic. What Juan agreed with, was that limiting speech through "political correctness" takes topics that NEED to be discussed off the table. Juan was saying, "Yeah, for an example <insert plane story>, however if we don't talk about that it will never change."

Blah, blah, more conversation.

Seriously, you are bashing Juan for "agreeing" with something he didn't agree with.

So, wither you are right or NPR is run by a bunch of racists? Nice.

drop your irrational hatred of the black man dung. They should be able to express their opinions too.

Read the Newsweek article on the topic. Let me know what you think.

That's the first time I have agreed with you on this thread. If I'm not mistaken, there was wide public acceptance of Japanese internment at that time, as well.

There is a really fine line between comments like Juan's, views like O'Reilly's, and wide public support against the construction of the mosque near ground zero, and what you're talking about w/ the Japanese above, or with regard to being at war w/ Islam in general. There really isn't much of a leap from here to there....

Damo is a big boy. He can speak for himself. And I just find it exceedingly difficult to believe that Damo watched this particular edition of Inside Washington, a show on PBS that practically no one watches, and specifically remembers that an employee of NPR said something about wishing Jesse Helms and his grandchildren got AIDS and it just so happens, coincidences of coincidences, that a clip of surfaced on the web a very short while ago.

And given Damo's past regarding conveniently "remembering" certain very specific things like GHWB being blamed by Peter Jennings for the Exxon Valdez that just so happened to appear on Glenn Beck's website, the skepticism is well warranted.

As NPR drifts further and further to the left, it becomes more of an issue. The escalation of irrational hatred of anything and everything FOX has taken place over the past 10 years.

Juan was advised about this shit a while ago when he called Michele Obama "Stokley Carmichael in a dress." He kept on doing it. At some point they had to draw the line. And given what Juan has said about all this, he seems relieved.

Can't have those blacks or women speaking their mind if they might dare contradict the 'acceptable' views of the far left.

Rubbish. They almost never got $1.8 Million from Soros, who seems to be using his newly purchased newsroom to attempt to make NPR the "anti-FOX", just before they started firing Analysts for making far less "shady" remarks than wishing AIDS on children...

Now. I'll research, do you want to make a bet I won't find anything about a lady reporter from NPR wishing AIDS on Helms?

Right, like that time you remembered what Glenn Beck told you to remember?

Just link it up. There's no shame in it. I'm sure that you can find an innocuous link out there somewhere.

That's hilarious. If $1.8 million buys the newsroom I wonder what Ray Krok's wife's estate got for her $200 million.

Not much, dead people can't complain. However, I did remember. Now I know who, when, etc.

 

[Socrtease]

I don't understand this unwillingness to believe that some people remember lots of stuff. I have a really good memory for trivial shit. In the time since it was invented I have lost trivial pursuit 6 times out of hundreds of times playing it. I have a very good memory and remembering things from 1995 is not that difficult, especially when other things trigger those memories.

You're full of shit. Socretes I'll give the benefit of the doubt on the Jesse Jackson thing since a lot of people brought it up yesterday, but your claim to have recalled this is total bullshit.

True that. My family refuses to play trivial pursuit with me any longer... Clue too for some reason.

It is unimportant to me whether you think I recalled this. The point of the matter is, they have no credibility saying that reporters and analysts cannot wade into the realm of political opinion. It's rubbish. Their excuse is beyond inane.

I'll give oyu the benefit of the doubt, but there is no fucking way that Damo specifically remembered that the person that made a comment about Jesse Helms on an obscure Sunday talk show 15 years ago was an employee of National Public Radio. There's just no fucking way.

And, given that "coincidentally" this clip of Nina Totenberg appeared on the web yesterday and was pimped by right-wing websites and Damo has in the past cribbed his memory from the likes of Glenn Beck about obscure shit like this, only a fool would believe that Damo "remembered" this incident.

Yes, he can. I was speaking for MYSELF. It was an observation regarding a typical pattern from you. You like to pretend that everyone on the opposite side gets their information from right wing blogs etc...

As for what you find 'exceedingly difficult to believe'.... that is YOUR problem.... one that YOU continue to have regardless of the topic. You obviously found it hard to believe Soc could recall the Jackson quote on his own, you find it hard to believe Damo (who is a political junkie like the rest of us) could remember something from the past blah blah blah.

yeah, because if DUNG can't recall something... NO ONE can....
