Roger really needs to stick with the movies. His ideas on America and politics is ill-informed.

Then he calls Palin Hitler by saying she is using tactics from Mein Kampf.

Yawn...

Geez, really worked overtime to come up with that one, eh, Rog?

Thanks, I wasn’t aware Ebert and the Phantom of the Opera were related. What happened to his mask?

For someone who is suppose to be slow, dumb, a bimbo and a loser, Sarah Palin really puts the fear of God into the self appointed elitists.

How utterly sad that a man or shell of a man can be so disillusioned when facing his own demise. What he doesn't realize is if he continued to live the Marxist Islam fascists would gleefully behead him first!

I thought Ebert was dead? Oh, that was the other one. Ebert sure looks dead.

He needs something that he actually can do! Maybe a human sandbag!

I guess people are so worn out on Bush being to blame and evil, i’s time to bring in Hitler. Who’s next? Michelle Bachman is on par with Pontius Pilot?! “She’s just like him, except it’s not Jesus she’s putting on trial for cricifixion, it’s the American people”!

“Roger Ebert is nothing...”

No need to proceed any further.

Roger Ebert appears to be a very angry, unhappy man. Given his serious medical problems that have left him unable to speak or function fully, he appears to be simply lashing out. I enjoyed Siskel and Ebert years ago and am sorry Siskel died and Ebert is now muted, because they were entertaining and sometimes thought-provoking, albeit liberal. Now Roger just sounds cynical and bitter. I just ignore these irrational rantings and wish him peace.

Ebert spews invictives while hiding behind his illness, with the help of others. Return the attack on Ebert, and you’re labeled as “unsympathetic” and “mean-spirited”.

I still won’t wish him ill health, but he gets no quarter on the issues.

Ebert isn’t sufficiently qualified to be a knee-jerk liberal. He’s just a knee-jerk.

Ebert has occasionally accused some films of having an unwholesome political agenda, and the word “fascist” accompanied more than one of Ebert’s reviews of the law-and-order films of the 1970s such as Dirty Harry.

Ebert is married to trial attorney Charlie “Chaz” Hammel-Smith

Ebert is a recovering alcoholic

A supporter of the Democratic Party, Ebert publicly urged liberal filmmaker Michael Moore to give a politically charged acceptance speech at the Academy Awards: “I’d like to see Michael Moore get up there and let ‘em have it with both barrels and really let loose and give them a real rabble-rousing speech.

During a 2004 visit to The Howard Stern Show, Ebert predicted that the then-junior Illinois senator Barack Obama would be very important to the future of the country.

“I have never said, although readers have freely informed me I am an atheist, an agnostic, or at the very least a secular humanist — which I am”.

******

Ebert:

4. One buried motive for the attacks on Park51 is exploitation of the insane belief of 20% of Americans that President Obama is a Muslim. Zealots like Glenn Beck, with his almost daily insinuations about the Muslim grandfather Obama never knew and the father he met only once, are encouraging this mistaken belief.

6. Somewhere on the Right is an anonymous genius at creating memes. Sarah Palin floats a suspicious number of them: Death Panels, Ground Zero Mosque, 9/11 Mosque, Terror Babies. Her tweets are mine fields of coded words; for her, “patriot” is defined as, “those who agree with me.” When she says “Americans,” it is not inclusive. These two must have been carefully composed in advance to be tweeted within 60 seconds of each other:

7. Many Americans and a great many politicians have either never taken a civics class or disagree with what they should have learned there. The major opinion sources in America that seem to devote the most attention to the Bill of Rights are Fox News, Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck, all distorting it as an everyday practice. Bill O’Reilly, to his credit, doesn’t indulge in this.

8. A meme is infecting our society that Muslims are terrorists and hate America; they are the enemy. It is a cliche to say, “the vast majority of Muslims are peaceful,” but is true. When Muslim nations are bombed by America, can those nations be expected to applaud? In Iran after 9/11 there were candlelight marches in sympathy with the United States.

Ebert has long been an apologist for the left, who can do no wrong in his little world. He regurgitates DNC talking points.

Ebert is a movie reviewer...and not a very good one. One thing I always knew, if Ebert didn’t like a movie, I knew I would.

His understanding of the culture and political issues is thin, at best.

Stick to watching movies, Roger. It is what you do, albeit not real well.

Left wing politics is Ebert’s religion.

He suffers from left wing mania.
