The Top 20 Signs That You Get All Your News From MSNBC
Townhall.com ^ | November 29, 2013 | John Hawkins

Posted on 11/19/2013 3:44:13 AM PST by Kaslin

1) The total extent of your knowledge about the world before 1970 is that Hitler was a lot like George W. Bush.

2) You once lectured the plumber clearing a clog in your toilet because you thought he didn't appreciate all the benefits he had received from "white privilege."

3) Not only do you have Sandra Fluke's autograph, you paid for it and it's hanging in your house.

4) You once took a sign to a protest that said, "Who Needs Oil? I Ride The Bus."

5) You are "pro-choice" on abortion, but believe religious groups should be forced to pay for your birth control.

6) You think a Republican founded the KKK.

7) You cried yourself to sleep one night last week because you're so upset at how mean people are to poor Alec Baldwin.

8) You've used the words, "That's Bush's fault," in the last month.

9) You've laughed at a rape joke about Sarah Palin within an hour of claiming Republicans are waging a "war on women."

10) You once actually said, "If Chris Matthews says it, you can take it to the bank!"

11) You don't believe Barack Obama has ever lied to anyone, but if he did, you're sure he did it for our own good!

12) You don't understand why Obama still hasn't prosecuted Bush for being behind 9/11 yet.

13) You'd be in favor of emptying the terrorists out of Guantanamo Bay so you could send Christians and Tea Partiers there instead.

14) You believe Ed Schultz is a moderate voice of reasoned debate.

15) You once called a conservative black man a racist for saying everyone should be treated equally.

16) You refuse to call Washington's pro-football team "the Redskins," but refer to Tea Partiers as "Teabaggers."

17) You supported Obamacare all the way, but were shocked to find out that your insurance wasn't free when it went into effect.

18) You blame Republicans for all the problems with Obamacare even though it was passed entirely with Democrat votes.

19) You hate the slanted news you get from places like Fox, which is why you prefer to get your news from unbiased commentators like Rachel Maddow and Piers Morgan.

20) You get so angry about those darn hunters! How can they kill animals for food when they could just buy it at the grocery store like everyone else?

You think a Republican founded the KKK.

Once I was at a wedding reception. After dinner, the MC engaged the crowd in a game of trivia. One question was: "Who was the first Republican president?"

Unbelievably, I was the only one in the crowd who raised my hand, and obviously, the only one who knew the correct answer.

Funny thing is, a college friend fits the whole description but the last. And I have hunted deer with him on his land for the past 37 years. Just got back Sunday with 3 deer that my 3 sons shot. We avoided political arguments this year. Though it was tough to do with his copies of The Nation strewn all over the cabin.

MSNBC isn’t a news channel. I sat there in 2011....maybe catching bits and pieces of the network over a month, and came to realize....it’s mostly all entertainment. You can’t get anything of news value...just entertainment for your political state of mind.

A guy who watches ten hours of MSNBC a week (or more)....probably knows next to nothing about the world around himself.

The guys who work for the network are mostly working for marginal pay and benefits. I don’t think any of them have ever asked for a pay-raise after four years there. The numbers never improve, and they feel lucky if they still get free coffee and bagels after four years with the organization.

If given a choice of the cartoon channel or MSNBC to view....I’d always select the cartoon channel.

you are probably right...... I have oft times said, that if it wasn't for the fact that he owned the land, I would ban him from hunting with us.

it took me a long time to get him to show the ability to be safe with his weapon. his masters in psychology never, I suppose, taught him about the potential energy inside that firearm that he would so absentmindedly sweep one with, as he talked with you in the woods.

it was like scolding a child, only completely absent, a child would have gotten it quick. He finally got it around 20 years ago, but it took way too long

A close, old friend of mine is a Washington Post reporter.

He believes and actually says all of these things (in private.)

I survive, however that must happen. I don’t project any specific technique, but I am aware, trained and Semper Paratus.

Are you required to run the deer down on foot? I can’t imagine a gun being allowed on his land.

his dad hunted...took him hunting at a young age. but he never did get it. around 20 years ago a 2nd cousin's husband gave me an old sears robuck pump shotgun(high standard) he had no use for. I cleaned it up and gave it to him as he was using an old 16 gauge side by side his father gave him (which you could not hit accuratly past 15 yards with, with the mandated slugs). the county used to be shotgun only and has since revert back to rifles allowed but legally the shotgun must be used only with slugs. I sawed the 32 inch pump gun back to a still legal 22 inch and mounted a glow worm(day glow orange) front bead. he shot no deer the first 15 years we hunted together. I came up there one summer to teach him how to shoot and aim the thing. he finally figured it out that you can't just point in the general direction, close your eyes, yank the trigger and expect to hit something....

I still watch him like a hawk. he is still not as safe as he should be....

I think he enjoys freaking out his kindred spirit leftists with his hunting and shooting (he laughs about how it upsets his fellow parishioners in the Unitarian bogus church he belongs to ). Even so called, ‘progressives’, are not monolithic cartoon-like stereotypes. there are subtle shades throughout the human experience.
