Brock Challenged by FNC (David Brock Exposed By Good Interview)

Media Research Center ^ | March 19, 2002

Brock has been lionized by the left-wing media, and they've been pushing his book non-stop ever since it first came out. Nonetheless, it is not selling that well. We will never see it at the top of the NY TIMES Best-Seller List for Non-Fiction, like Bernard Goldberg's BIAS. Goldberg, of course, has yet to be interviewed by the likes of Aaron Brown or Matt Lauer.

I had and continue to have two main points. He never deviates from Justice Scalia's opinion. He lied about Anita Hill.

I have no use for him. We could do better.

[Pokey78]

Besides listening to Bush v Gore, how many SCOTUS sessions have you seen or heard?

[duvausa]

Interesting, isn't it? And I remember when the regular networks wouldn't have Brock on to discuss his Anita Hill book.

David Horowitz talks about how he was lionized by all the best book review venues while he was a leftist--the same publications now find his work unacceptable for review.

[Map Kernow]

I had and continue to have two main points. He never deviates from Justice Scalia's opinion.

Untrue. And racist. A racist, left-wing myth, in other words.

He lied about Anita Hill.

A smear. And untrue.

I have no use for him.

Nor him for you. Except he's Associate Justice and you're not. Deal with it.

We could do better.

Haven't "done better" since he was confirmed. I'll take one Thomas over a benchful of Souters, Kennedys, Day O'Connors, Breyers, and Bader Ginzburgs. A long, long life and Supreme Court career to you, Justice Thomas---may you be the bane of Brock and his ilk for decades to come.

Here's my hope that you become the first African-American Chief Justice, Clarence Thomas.

[sinkspur]

He lied about Anita Hill.

Do you suck down everything the media tells you?

Or do you harbor some ugly racist stereotypes that you're afraid to admit to? Care to share with us why Anita Hill wasn't lying (since she's a PROVEN liar about some other things)?

Thank you for your service to your country, but I've met lots of vets who, like some bull riders I know, fell on their heads once too often.

[USAF vet]

None, since I don't live near DC. But from transcripts, I don't see where Thomas does diddly.

[jackbill]

I think we should be able to ask more of our Supreme Court Justices than to just sit quietly and nod and then co-sign off on virtually every opinion that certain other justices make, if you know what I mean.

No, I don't know what you mean. Would you like to elaborate, or do we have to wait until you get your head out of your Clymer?

Things must be getting a bit boring over at DU.

[USAF vet]

Nobody who served in the military during the past 50 years has any business being a racist, and I deeply resent the accusation.

[Skip Ripley]

Wow, is the irony that you're aping the tired criticisms of the left verbatim as a method of critiquing Thomas' performance as a Justice completely lost on you?

Can you enlighten me about the research you've done regarding the cases argued before the Suprteme Court so I can decide if you're credible and intelligent or merely the latest turd in the punchbowl?

[USAF vet]

You probably sound even better with a high school band backing you up.

[sinkspur]

Nobody who served in the military during the past 50 years has any business being a racist, and I deeply resent the accusation.

Well, since you won't tell us why you believe Thomas lied and Anita Hill (a PROVEN liar) is telling the truth, we must assume something more sinister is at work.

You can clear this up by laying out your arguments.

[USAF vet]

"Turd in the punchbowl"? Not everything boils down to "tired criticisms of the left". I have yet to see a significant contribution from Thomas. Here's your chance to enlighten me. You tell me what decisions he's made, some contribution to an opinion, whether or not he thought the chambers were too hot or cold, anything, and you may change my mind about him. Deal?

[gatex]

"But from transcripts, I don't see where Thomas does diddly."

Quickly -- tell us what Justice Thomas said in the guns in school zone case.

[Skip Ripley]

No, you're the one shooting your mouth off about Justice THomas' lack of contributions and qualifications. Back up your opinion with something other than the same tired drivel one might find on NPR or CNN or move along, junior

[gatex]

"You tell me what decisions he's made, some contribution to an opinion..."

Guns in school zone case (see post 35).

[Skooz]

He lied about Anita Hill.

Care to back that up? We are conservatives here. Therefore, we deal with facts, not baseless inuendo.

If you have some proof, we are all interested to hear it. But if all you have is "He lied because Peter Jennings said so," we will laugh you all the way back to DU.

Anybody who thinks this clymer is a vet, go to the corner!

[USAF vet]

Good, give me another one.

Quickly.
