Why am I not surprised there’s a democratic strategist involved?

A warning from a n00b with an affinity for a dead medium.

Yeah, I'll watch out for that.

You watch out for that FM band, OK?

I hear the bongo-drums are spreading lies, too.

And we're worried about this because..........? The idiots and uninformed will give him some credence. The rest of the population won't give him the time of day.

Any "reporter" who has to manufacture "news" as this guy did will be only a flash in the pan.

Well, if nothing else, we were successful in drawing the rabid skunks’ attention away from Trig and Bristol Palin for a while.

I would suggest that the information on Instapundit be sent to Shuster at MSNBC by fax with a cover letter that says FR will sue MSNBC to the stone age if they "report" the Vancouver article as legitimate. Point out that this biased reporter cannot even get the name "Robinson" correct.

I would simply state that anyone that defames this sight without knowing the identities of those who allegedly made racist remarks about the obama girls should be sued for slander.

It easily could have been an attempt by radical Leftist trolls who come here to start trouble.

Make that 2. Chris Matthews will be too busy concentrating on watching Shuster’s mouth move and wasting a fistfull of tissue to be much of a threat.

Last year, David Shuster queried whether Chelsea Clinton wasn’t being “pimped out” on the campaign trail. He took a little heat for it, only because Chelsea isn’t a Palin.

He also is the one who was suspended for a nasty Chelsie Clinton comment during the election.

The strategy of going after Rush Limbaugh must have gotten too old. People weren't falling for that anymore. A move we predicted on FR back in April."Watch for a new bogeyman on the Right to emerge."posted on Tuesday, April 14, 2009 2:46:09 PM

David Shuster was the pimp that trashed Chelsea Clinton for no reason.

I like Rule 13.
When do we implement it? I can think of several targets that would be useful. Where’s the campaign exposing Gore and all the dollars he stands to make from Cap and Trade? Talk about conflicts of interest.

Here is his on-air apology. It doesn't get more lame than this. The first minute has it.

David Shuster: Chelsea Clinton "pimped out" remark

Is he gay? I don't mean that pejoratively, no, no, if you know me you know I don't mean it pejoratively. He just seems so ... ofay.

His comment on Chelsea was horribly sexist and steeped in a ghetto alliteration so I think it was racist too.

I think Newsbusters gave an excellent analysis this morning or how Schuster is walking into a landmine with MSNBC participating in the trashing of the Palin children and more, also that Olbermann is a regular at KOS. I do think FR should be able to discuss most anything without it coming off as racist, too bad there is always a fringe element on any large site that acts out and makes everyone look bad in the process.

I agree with you that there are a few who cross the line and then there are others who are just uncomfortably hyperbolic. In part it depends on how one defines a racist comment. I think it is dangerous to start capitulating to some outside element's sensitivities. Especially the liberal media who say far worse things themselves and then cover themselves with lame apologies and excuses.

AG Holder called the U.S. cowards about talking about race issues. Well, this kind of character assassination played with the race card is what makes people unwilling to speak their minds. If the left wants silence on race I guess we can give them that. Refuse to ever discuss anything about race. Exclude anyone who brings it up from our lives. We can see how that works out.

I still do not think the initial subject of the entire discussion was inappropriate — though just by bringing it up some would deem it racist because of the subjects being discussed... it became more difficult not to use steriotypical comments when the pics of her and her cousin was posted, but it was still doable... but the outright racist terms had no place here and either the people who posted them were indeed trolls looking to cause problems for FR or the site really needs to houseclean... We have serious concerns that need to be addressed over the next 18 months and the two years after that and I hate to see FR loaded with people trying to make if DU or KOS light...however, that is just my humble opinion....
