Mike Lupica: Shrill shouters betray post-9/11 promises to be best we can be (attacks Mark Levin)

New York Daily News ^ | Monday, September 14th 2009 | Mike Lupica, annoying sportswriter posing as a political commentator

[Mr. Jazzy]

Mr. Lupica is actually an annoying sports writer posing as a human being... and not pulling it off.

[NativeNewYorker]

Hey LUPE!

“And on this most recent anniversary of Sept. 11, the country seems as full of hate and noise as it has ever been. This is an America where Rep. Joe Wilson, whoever he is, thinks he can call the President of the United States a liar, Wilson talking to the President the way he would the help, or some waiter who was supposed to bring him another drink.”

Bring POtuS to MY HOUSE and see how he gets treated...like the Fascist POtuS that he is...does 8 years of pResident, The Stupidest Man to ever be pResident, BushHitler, the Shrub, any of THAT shit sound familiar?

Lupica forgets so quickly that Obama came to Congress to justify his legislative program of the moment, but first he had to tell everybody else that they were liars.

One man, on the site, reminded him that he, Obama, was a liar.

I thought of Wilson at that moment as very much taking the place of the slave who rode beside the victorious general on his parade in Rome and reminded him that all fame was fleeting, and that all men were mortal.

Obama needs that ~ someone to take him down a notch. Else, he's going to get this country destroyed.

[Laissez-faire capitalist]

“Keep the black guy from getting elected”?

Once again, the racebaiters say that conservatives voted against Obama because of his skin color, and (by extension) that liberals voted for Obama because he is black.

Actually Obama is half white, but you get the point.

By saying this, Lupica is actually also saying that white liberals (like him) are self-loathers.

Is he a self-loather because he is not black?

I doubt that he would like that said about him.

No Mikey boy. It’s like this. They would be highly pissed off if they knew that Americans were bending over to the Islamofascists and the communists the way you and your comrades are.

[Dr.Zoidberg]

What is this Lupunka and why should anyone care what it has to say?

[wac3rd]

More of the kneepad Sports Media (Bob Ley, Keith Olbermann, etc.) who perpetually give thug athletes a pass.

[NotSoModerate]

I guess he’s trying to mimic the dummy over at msnbc. I pretty much stopped watching ESPN because of libs like him and others always mixing their politics with sports.

[Melchior]

It has always baffled me that someone actually pays Lupica a salary for writing his weekly sack of garbage. He must be engaged to the newspaper owner’s son.

[ConservativeStatement]

Lupica is the definitive “Girly Man.”

[Politics4US]

So, he admits that he likes Obama, because Obama is black.

“Or maybe this all just comes out of a fury that there weren’t enough screamers to keep the black guy from getting elected.”

Don’t blame us. We warned the country the Kenyan was a freaking communist.

[presidio9]

The Democrats are spending a lot of time time calling Wilson a racist and suggesting this sort of thing is unprecedented, because the know that sooner or later some responsible journalist will bother to use Google and learn that this is neither unprecedented nor the most outrageous act by a Democrat member of Congress from SC. In 1856 SC Senator Preston Smith Brooks beat Republican Senator Charles Sumner (MA) within an inch of his life for criticizing Franklin Pierce and those who sympathized with pro-slavery violence in Kansas. Sumner was unable to return to office for three years. Brooks, and fellow Democrat SC Senator Laurence Keitt (who prolonged the savage beating by holding off the other Senators with a pistol were "censured" and returned to work the next day.

[Mr. Jazzy]

Yeah, he is definitely a “catcher”.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Mike Lupica

Who?

Is this a person of merit I have never heard of or just another dancing monkey?

Wondering where Lupica was when all his Democrat heros were lined up to keep the black man from getting appointed to the Supreme Court.

Actually, he wrote about that not so long ago, and he indicated that anybody who does not believe Anita Hill by now is obviously a racist.
