Ratner's 'Apology' NOT Accepted

Posted on 01/18/2003 8:54:43 AM PST by ThomWilkerson

Ellen Ratner was on this morning's Fox&Friends and tried to weasel out of her previous attack on GW Bush whom she wished would 'screw up the war in Iraq' so that the Dems could regain the WhiteHouse by saying she was 'just trying to be funny' and it 'backfired on her'. Like oh, oops.

Well, it's time that EVERY Freeper immediately write Ms Ratner and let her and FoxNews know that her so-called apology is simply NOT ACCEPTED! or acceptable.

I've written to every FoxNews email address the same letter:

That we viewers of FoxNews will not accept Ellen Ratner's apology until she publically accepts Sen Lott's and demands apologies on FoxNews from both Sens Murray and Byrd.

She obviously will never accept Trent Lott's apology or even ask Sen Byrd or Patty Murray to explain their hate-filled words against America, so why should we EVER, ever be asked to accept hers??

Doesn't she know that the current rules of the game require at least six apologies? Maybe if she does it over and over and over again in several different venues.......

. . .good point; and the fact is we know she does speak for every Lib out there. . .and she and the rest of them should be reminded, haunted and hounded by the real truth of what she speaks.

. . .the truth in humor stands; funny or not. . .

I consider her to have no relevance, so her words are dooly squat, as is her apology! She's that little pile of dog doo that you avoid when out walking in the park!

Have had Fox on most of the morning and I did not hear her apology or her earlier comments for that matter, 'reported' or rerun. . .

. . .so perhaps Ellen gets a free pass; a one-time only exposure of her ignorance and insult. . .whereas, Trent and any other tongue-tied Repub gets weeks of replay! Perhaps I have missed this, but if not, that is worth a note to Fox as well. . .

Are they just making 'nice' and going to 'forgetaboutit?'

Ellen Ratner was on this morning's Fox&Friends and tried to weasel out of her previous attack on GW Bush whom she wished would 'screw up the war in Iraq' so that the Dems could regain the WhiteHouse ... The witless, bland thing just made the mistake of openly stating what the entire democrat party and their constituencies desire. They haven't accepted the election of 2000 and will welcome the slaughter of so many Americans as the due sacrfiice for 'us' not voting for the 'right guy'. Can you imagine what a spot we'd be in right now had goreghoul been sworn into our White House?... 9/11 would have worked to fund 'domestic programs' from Washington to eternity! But the military would have been cut in half by now, with no projection of force to fight the terrorist 'over there', and we would have martial law to 'keep us safe'. Sheesh, these fools haven't a clue when it comes to the parent child connection. How could they possibly wage a war on terroism and the nations that sponsor it? Wake up, comedian. You're far from funny when you stink up the nation. And that goes for the Hollywood fool pretending to be president on television. I think he believes he could do a better job than George Bush! He's a maroon, Bugs.

I have occasionally seen Ellen Ratner on those stupid round-table discussions on C-SPAN ("Whither Talk Radio???" and etc). I have NEVER heard her say one one thing that showed any understanding of the issues, or actually made sense.

I think that she see's herself as Rush Limbaugh's competition- I doubt that Rush knows she is alive...

Aside from that, though, it is truly astounding how the Democratic Party has painted themselves into a corner- where anything that would be good for the country is bad for their chances in 2004. How do you set out to do such a stupid thing? Why?

Why?... Because their power is more in their consciousness than the welfare of the nation they claim to want to protect and lead. It's about democrat empowerment. One need only look at their willingness to sacrfice the alive individual human beings in the womb as a means to empowerment to understand how bankrupt the depsotic democrat party has become. Now, they are willing to sacrifice the born (as in citizens at work or play) to thwart the opposition to their gaining and holding power. It's not a mystery, really. The deomcrat party has mutated into our worse nightmare because of their hatred for Bush and a Republican lead House and Senate. It is a well known psychological phenomenon that bitterness and hatred corrode the soul. The democrat party learned to foster these components to the max under sinkEmperor. The soul of the democrat party is thoroughly corrupted now, filled with hatred and bitterness.

In fact, I expect that a serious poll of democrat voters would show that they really DO believe that recovering the White House is of greater importance than any other issue or crisis.

The way they think seems to be that any interviening event - recessions, wars, famine, or plague - could be borne and that return of their socialist agenda would make it all better overnight.

Besides, they have proven repeatedly that a little spin here and a bit of manipulation there can guarantee that blame for any and all can be assigned to some faction of the VRWC.

So far conservatives have shown themselves totally unable to counter the lefts mastery of disinformation.

Well, it's time that EVERY Freeper immediately write Ms Ratner

Do you realize how important that would make her feel?
This disgusting scumbag Ratner deserves only deafening silence.

Ellen Ratner has foot in mouth and the Fox News Network cannot play it down. Why? cause we wont let em.

Everytime she sputters untruth or maligns the good guys, an email campaign will proceed, you have my word on it.

I found her book on a remainder table for a buck and bought it. It's entitled "101 Ways to get your Progressive Issues on Talk Radio." I figured it might disclose some Rat techniques we could use on our side, but it's poorly written and wasn't even worth the buck. She makes her living by being a Far Left mouth for hire, though and aggressively markets herself to present what she calls the "progressive" viewpoint (which sure sounds regressive to me).

If you want to contact her directly, according to the book she's at (I think it's her little company): Talk Radio News Service (202) 337-8715, email talkradionews.com

Even more productive would be to contact every media source who gives her airtime and tell them we don't want to hear her, she's too dumb and repulsive.

How weird. Some Libertarians clamor for the tax-and-spend Democrats to be in power so that they can supposedly hasten the proletarian revolution, much as Marxists pine for fascism in order to prompt the proletariat to do the dialectical materialist hop.
