You seem awfully eager to give credence to this ugly story.

What makes you so sure? I’ve been to a few gatherings that were large and NOTHING like that was said. We’ve had blacks speaking...and well the gay thing really is a non-issue. So what makes you say “I’m sure” this did happen?

So what. I’ve been called a baby killer by the liberal b@stards. I don’t care who says what. I am sick of Americans being muzzled by political correctness.

That isn’t true. I think that entitlements not only bankrupted this country, but it has destroyed the black family. We will see the same thing happen to Mexicans if we give them amnesty.
I believe that more conservatism is a better path for everyone in the long run. I am most definitely a big fan of Bill Cosby and Stephen A Smith, a frequent guest on Hannity. As Smith explained, blacks have found themselves in a position where they vote 90% for one party so that one side neglects them and the other takes them for granted. I blame politicians for this phenomena, this wasn’t a completely free country before 1965 and the Democrats saw their chance to be the new sharecroppers. I think that was a bad path to take, and conservatism would have been better off for everyone. If we can spread prosperity around more efficiently and see more backs integrate into the middle class, they will one day become a swing vote!

If this did occur, I would bet that the culpable individual shouting the slur was a leftist agitator.

I’m sure this did happen...

Are you associated with the leftists who did it? It's the only way you could be sure.

Kill The Bill!!

People rally in opposition to government reform of health care in Washington, DC. President Barack Obama looked to energize his Democratic allies Saturday with an in-person appeal for his historic health care overhaul on the eve of a cliffhanger vote on the sweeping legislation.

Then you seen awfully eager to be unrealistic. Why don’t you use some common sense?

This rally was the size of a small city, what the opposition does is focus on the most radical elements to harm the credibility of everyone else.

I don’t understand why that is a controversial opinion.

Even if this is true, so what? We pay these peoples' salaries and we are entitled to call them whatever we want. If they don't like it they can resign.

Agreed, if someone called him a bad name, boo-frickin' hoo.

I’m sure it did happen because the propagandists had such an easy job to do. This is typical, no matter what the rally was about you can find a few nut jobs amidst the crowd. A reporter using Solinsky tactics would just walk around until they see a “radical” to report on. Out of 25,000 people, that isn’t a hard thing to do. They then find the radical, and try to portray the whole movement as a bunch of nuts. This happens all the time, and I am sure that is what happened here.

You could tell which guy in the crowd yelled it, but the camera angle was from behind. I’m not the only one who saw it. It was all over the news.

Bash also reported Rep. Barney Frank (D-MA) was called a slur related to his homosexuality by Tea Party protesters.

Being called "A degenerate, treasonous, slobbering Communist freak" has nothing to do with being a Sodomite with a history of running a fag brothel.

Nothing.

Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.

I hate the n word myself. And I wasn’t there so I don’t know if either the n word was said, or if that homosexual term was used.

But if the term Teabagger was used, it was either used against the Tea Party people, or CNN is admitting that it’s a bad term and they themselves, and others in the msm are guilty of using a bad term against thousands and thousands of American citizens.

And isn’t it rather racist of that CNN reporter to report the n word being used without knowing for a fact that it wasn’t one of our black tea partiers who used the term?

Black people are allowed to call each other that n word. They say it to each other all the time. Several times a day! And without knowing who used the word, if at all it was used, then the CNN lady is a racist herself for trying to make a big deal out of it.

Just my take on it.
