CNN’s Martin: ObamaCare Opponents ‘Probably Can’t Spell Communism And Socialism’ (video)

Don’t forget Blitzer’s stunning -$4600.

I’ll bet this guy has $5.00 in his pocket and he is wearing a new suit — know what that is called?
a “Community Leader”!

CNN’s Kyra Phillips invited comedian Paul Mooney and radio talk show host Roland Martin on to “Newsroom” Tuesday to discuss the Michael Richards (“Kramer”) issue. During the conversation, both guests made what many would perceive as being rather anti-Semitic remarks.This was Martin’s:

“Another piece is when you really examine what he said, he not only said 50 years ago we’d have you hanging upside down from a tree. Well, guess what, 50 years ago, Michael Richards would have been in some oven in Germany being baked because he’s also Jewish.”

"Ratings" is contingent upon them being able to spell irrelevant. Ironic, that CNN has not figured this out yet.....they are irrelevant and grow moreso each and every passing day.

CNN’s Martin: Birther’s “I want my country back” comment means “How is this black guy all of the sudden running the country?”

Essence: Roland Martin: CAN WE JUST CALL WHITE VOTERS WHITE VOTERS?

Essence: Roland Martin

OK, I’m not trying to be the race guy, but these labels are driving me nuts!

Earlier today there was a piece on Joe Sixpack, and not a single African American, Hispanic or Asian was interviewed.

Now, do these groups drink six packs? Yep. But don’t we know that Palin isn’t talking to them? Yep. So why not just say it?

We even played a soundbite of Palin saying Joe Sixpack and hockey moms. Trust me, she’s not speaking to anyone who looks like me!

But there are other terms that have been thrown around by candidates, political strategists and the media, and no one wants to be honest as to who we are talking about.

Wal-mart moms. Soccer moms. NASCAR dads. Small town America.

Seriously. Read all of those phrases, and when you think of who candidates, political strategists and the media are talking about, who immediately comes to mind? I can tell you no one black, Hispanic or Asian!

So, can we just stop the nonsense and say, all at once – WHITE AMERICANS.

I just think it’s so obvious, but it as if we – the collective media – just doesn’t want to say it

Roland Martin: Palin Should ‘Cut the Crap’ and Stick to Making Money

Martin: mocked those in “real America” for being Palin fans; accused her of giving speeches “full of falsehoods,” and; claimed she was an empty-headed celebrity who wanted nothing more than money.

Sarah Palin’s most ardent supporters in “real America” love to suggest that those of us who don’t buy into her shtick fail to grasp why they love her, citing her realness, plain-spokenness and whatever else they can conjure up.

Folks, nice try, but as a native Texan, I’ve seen many politicians and wannabes over the years who had charm, wit, charisma and a twinkle in their eye.

You want a media darling politician with substance? Try the late Gov. Ann Richards, a woman who could cut you deep and beam ear-to-ear with her motherly smile. But unlike Palin, she had a host of strong ideas in her head that actually made sense and appealed to a cross-section of folks.

Former Rep. Charlie Wilson, who died this week, was a smooth-talking Texan who loved to party hard. But when it came to politics, he knew how to get things done. The media loved him because he could sit with you and enjoy a beer over barbecue, give them a hilarious quote or two, and explain foreign policy better than Henry Kissinger.

Why haven’t I cottoned to Palin? Because she portrays herself as a straight-talking politician who wants to lead a movement in the “Lower 48th” — but is nothing more than a political celebrity willing to cash every check she can grab.

Sarah, I haven’t bought into your fake “I’m-a-real-American” persona. You slam the president for using teleprompters, but write crib notes on your hand to remember basic beliefs that should be easy to regurgitate.

You decry the “lamestream” media, but you bask in its glory and have joined its payroll as a Fox News contributor, even having the network build a studio in your home. Talk about media elite.

You give a speech riddled with falsehoods about the president and national security, and then try to shrug them off as the “lamestream” media attacking you.

You don’t fool me, even as your legion of fans considers you the second coming of President Reagan. You quit on the people who elected you to become a political celebrity, which your presidential running mate blasted then-Sen. Barack Obama for doing.

You had the opportunity to show everyone that you’re willing to take on anyone who crosses the line against those who are mentally challenged, and you failed.

Please, make as much money as you can. Paraphrasing comedian Martin Lawrence, ride this train until the wheels fall off. But please, cut the crap. You’re a crass politician with no true conviction. Your actions have shown that.

I can Spell Marxist though
