Sarah Palin Calls Cain Hit-Piece Article JournoList Martin a "Punk" on Beck Show (Rewind)
Glenn Beck Show Oct. 2010 via YouTube ^ | 31 October 2011 | AmericanInTokyo

Posted on 10/31/2011 12:15:11 AM PDT by AmericanInTokyo

This guy--who slammed Herman Cain yesterday--tried to get Sarah Palin, too. She called him a "punk" on Glenn Beck's Radio show nearly one full year ago. @ 00:48, and further exposes Politico's method of hatchet jobs and then not retracting nor accepting responsibility afterwards when proven WRONG.

PALIN CLIP HERE ON JONATHAN MARTIN.

Furthermore, this Jonathan Martin (Politico) individual, we have come to find out was:

a) Almost nominated to be in the top 10 of a list of worst liberal journalists in the United States. Helen Thomas went on to claim the top spot.

b) Was exposed as member of the nefarious, underground "JournoList" group of biased, leftist journalists discussing and strategizing how to get Obama elected.

c) Attacked Sarah Palin (as per the link, above), and talk show host Mark Levin also demanded a retraction from this Jonathan Martin individual for unethical journalistic practices.

No one here defended Perry or accused anyone of bad journalism.

That's a lie. There were many threads on FR about the nigger rock and most were defending Perry. Perry didn't all behind because of the rock, he fell behind because he wants to give cheap tuition rates to illegals and is against a border fence.

Hmmm. And apparently, you're both a liar and in favor of moronic ideas that would never, ever work.

Karl Rove Says Cain’s Finished, Zogby Says He ‘Trounces’ Romney Head-to-Head
Sunday, October 30, 2011 8:51:27 PM · by jimbo123 · 80 replies
Big Government ^ | 10/28/11 | AWR Hawkins
When Gov. Sarah Palin was deciding whether or not to get into the presidential race, Karl Rove was popping up on Fox News to talk about why her skin was too thin for the job. And when Gov. Rick Perry was thinking about his entrance into the race, Rove was Johnny-on-the-spot with reasons why a Perry candidacy would not be viable either. Now Rove’s moved on to Herman Cain, whose candidacy he’s doing all he can to sink, sidetrack, or otherwise derail.

Karl Rove has nothing to do with Cain’s problems—they are self inflicted. He opens his mouth and puts his foot into it. Cain is not longer believable.

Jonathan Martin is America’s version of the German race-baiter Julius Streicher. His racist publication, Politico, is the American version of Der Stürmer, a notorious anti-semitic and racist broadsheet, published with the approval of Germany’s fascist party.

Wrong again. Romney is still for TARP. Cain denounced it when it was learned they did not do with it what they sold us on.

Did you read the entire article along with the supporting references, one of which was his article from October 20, 2008? Nope, you didn't have the time to as evidenced by the time stamps combined with whatever you were commenting on at the time.

Will you be an honest broker and admit that the public was sold a bill of goods that nobody in government followed through on?

Here is one for you to chew on for a little while. You might want to freshen up your cup because it is a long one.

National Review Article; "Cain's Caustic Columns"

As to your article to support your claims, the author and site owner; Craig Robinson serves as the founder and Editor-in-Chief of TheIowaRepublican.com. Prior to founding Iowa's largest conservative news site, Robinson served as the Political Director of the Republican Party of Iowa during the 2008 Iowa Caucuses. In that capacity, Robinson planned and organized the largest political event in 2007, the Iowa Straw Poll, in Ames, Iowa. Robinson also organized the 2008 Republican caucuses in Iowa, and was later dispatched to Nevada to help with the caucuses there.

Sure doesn't sound much like a party elite insider to me./sarc

I don't care about Romney's position on TARP. I only care about the content of the character of these folks who are asking for our votes to be our nominee for president.

I find the character of Romney and Cain to be exactly the same.

We cannot trust either one to be sincere in their stated position at the time.

Again, you fire back without considering anything I presented to counter your attacks on Cain’s personal integrity. You, my dear, are not an honest broker in an open debate.

So, how does that hook line and sinker look hangin’ out of your mouth? I suppose about the same as Shieffer did when Cain spit out the truth about Margaret Sanger and her genocidal cult of death called Planned Parenthood.

I agree about Margaret Sanger. My problem with Cain on the abortion issue is that he can take both sides of this issue in one conversation. He claims to be pro-life but then says it shouldn’t be discussed in the political arena. Cain is slippery and does not want to be nailed down.

Right....that's why he's in the lead virtually everywhere. As documented here, Rove has gone to savage every potential challenger to Romney for many months now. He's a piece of garbage who has nearly singlehandedly destroyed the Republican party trying to move it as far left as possible to 'win moderates'. He is the author of compassionate conservatism, the idea of amnesty, and the get-along-with-the-left meme of the GWB years. His efforts gave us 2006 and 2008, and since conservatives took back the reigns in 2010, he has been a whiny baby going after conservatives in order to get his power back.

I think the problem for Politico is that not only did a blatantly biased writer write the story, but with the modern Internet we can fact-check almost anything very quickly. Haven't the MSM learned from the Rathergate debacle in 2004, one that essentially ended the career Dan Rather?

Joseph Goebbels, and his mentor Edward Bernays wold certainly be proud of your attempts. Just because you say it is so doesn’t make it so. Your source of interpretations to his answer, willfully neglect the exact wording of the question.

Context is your friend and it can also be your worse enemy.

True, False or Hit Piece .... it will play out and Cain
will have to address the issue personally, not his spokesperson. The fact checking will begin today or should.

.....Cain himself will have a chance to respond to the allegations today, as he is set to
appear live on Fox News at 11:15 a.m. The presidential candidate is also scheduled to
deliver remarks at the American Enterprise Institute and at the National Press Club in
Washington, DC on Monday.....

Very good posture. It speaks a lot of truth in a small amount of words.

Looks like I will be making my first donation to Herman over this. I can do $9.99 only at this time, I gotta kid due in January. But will hope to donate more later.

These jackasses at politico need to suffer somehow.

“Cain reacted as though Perry was a racist. No one here defended Perry or accused anyone of bad journalism.”

Those are both lies. I have not read the whole thread yet, so I hope that you either correct yourself or ask the moderator to remove your errant post.

I agree with you about Politico completely, but I'd like to know how somebody involved with Perry's campaign knew about a Politico story three days before it ran. And another FReeper has mentioned that something similar was discussed by an Iowa coordinator for Perry.

Sheri Urban of RealFeminist.com in her post last night accused GOP elites of being behind this smear. This Tweet seems to back that up.

A smear job without details where they won’t even tell us what he is accused of.
