CNN Mocks Million Vet March as Tea Party Crazies
Breitbart ^ | 10/13/2013 | Ben Shapiro

CNN.com covered Sunday’s “Million Vet March” in Washington D.C. against the Obama administration’s closure of military memorials by castigating the marchers as Tea Party kooks and fringe crazies. “At tea party-like rally, Obama told to ‘put the Quran down,’” the headline read. CNN derided the size of the crowd:

--snip--

CNN focused on one speaker, Larry Klayman, whom it quoted as stating, “I call upon all of you to wage a second American nonviolent revolution, to use civil disobedience, and to demand that this president leave town, to get up, to put the Quran down, to get up off his knees, and to figuratively come out with his hands up.”

CNN then tried to lump in former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) in with Klayman...

Larry Klayman spoke the truth. He's a good man, with service in President Reagan's DOJ and founded Judicial Watch.

How do I link live TV? I watched it. The only link I can provide is this one. Maybe I’m a liar.

Really stinks that even Fox News won’t do anything on the March. I do know the people involved with the Truckers stopped coming on because they didn’t like national press reports so are refusing to do media. Plus they are busy with the protests. They joined the March today.

Funny how CNN etal can say the TEA Party is nothing but an isolated group of ‘radicals’ THEN have the wherewithal to say the 1M Vet march is full of TEA Partiers?

Typical of LIB Double Speak....

That is why they consider such statements as:
I was against the war before I was for it ... etc...
It depends what the meaning of is is.
I have visited 57 states....
That 3 letter word J O B S.....
As being entirely OK...

They all must have went to the Yogi Berra ‘school of double talk’.

Yeah CNN is afraid of us. They are owned by the left and run by a guy who used to work NBC. So they stink.

Gee, I wonder why FoxNews spanks the back-side of CNN in ratings for years on end.

Perhaps the brain-trusts at CNN will figure it out one day. Doubt it. It will take at least one triple digit IQ for that to happen...

Yeah Fox News half-asses it sometimes but at least it does a much better job than CNN so I thanked them for it.

No, but Free Republic has. Others will pick up on it, hopefully.

And I can only imagine how spectacularly a truly Conservative television network would perform. Fox continues to veer left with homosexuals, abortionists, feminists and a Scientologist in very visible positions. Until and unless Free Republic moves to a television platform, that medium remains in the enemy camp.

@Zhang,

I agree, this “MILLION THIS AND MILLION THAT” is really quite boring any more.

They should have boosted the occupy people’s stuff.

Can you imagine the confusion?

OCCUPY THE MEMORIAL!

The bureauKaRATZ goons might have thought it was their group and left it alone. The doofuses at CNN would have thought it was their group and left it alone.

Folks, if you wannabe a street fighter, you have GOT to be creative.

Learned that early on by being on the receiving end of Fast Eddie’s goon squad.

Union Thugs, what WONDERFUL, LOVELY people!

LOL.... I could be wrong, but it appears that Peter Doocy has his barn boots on the wrong feet. I wonder what kind of weather he is expecting or did he ride in on a horse? ;>)

A Million Vet March with a cast of thousands invites ridicule. Why not call it something else?

Indeed, why not? Somehow, so many organizers of these events are hung up on the full or partial alliteration, i.e., "Million Man March" and the like.

It does invite ridicule and they're stupid to not see that.

Anyone that can look at photos of brave Veterans who have limbs missing and call them “Crazies” are not part of the human race..

You have GOT to be more confrontational.

Try this headline:

"Un-hinged Anti-Military Hate Mongers at CNN Call Decorated Veteran Amputees 'Nut cases'! Editors and producers DEFEND the slur!"

I have to agree with that a lot.

On another note, as an Old Biker I look at your handle and remember a biker quote. I've made adjustments to it just for you:

There are Old Possums and Bold Possums, but there ain't any such thing as an Old, Bold Possum. LOL.
