Pro-American Movies a “Turn-Off”: Donny Deutsch
NewsReal Blog ^ | August 17, 2009 | David Forsmark

You’d think that if he’s going to anchor on MSNBC, a network that was started as a joint venture with Microsoft, Donny Deutsch would learn how to email or at least use MSN’s search engine.

But it’s been 2 weeks since Donny called National Review’s John Miller “ignorant” and promised to email him the proof. So far, not a peep from Donny.

Actually, ignorance is not his excuse. He was caught in a lie, and used the dodge to get away.

Donny blasted out of the gate with non-sequiturs, mangled metaphors, factual misstatements and bloviating worthy of Keith Olbermann, reacting to Miller’s observation on National Review Online that G.I. Joe is no longer an American, and that “Joe and his friends look like heroes without a country.”

I managed to avoid seeing this crappy movie. The wife dragged me to "Julie and Julia" instead and boy was I glad she did. It was one of the best movies of the year.

A name like Donnie Douche is a turn off for me too.

We could always shrug if off and forget about it, after all, a whole 37 people watch Donny Deutsch’s show...

Donny Douche is one of Donald Trump’s butt buddies. It’s no wonder he will do or say anything if it puts some money in his pocket.

I saw Julie and Julia also.
I hated the McCarthy stuff had to be so front and center in the second half the movie.
Anyone that worked for Mountbatten during WWII was nothing but a patriot.
Also the idea that a “Republican” would have fired Julie for missing the day and the blog stuff was a little over the top but overall it was an enjoyable movie.

Isn’t it about time for someone like Chuck Norris or Ted Nugent to kick Deutsch’s ass? I mean literally. He’s a punk.

MILLER: If I were an investor, what I would NOT do is make anti-war movies which have flopped time after time as we have seen Hollywood do. I would make a move about American heroes fighting in Fallujah, I would make a movie about Medal of Honor recipients fighting in Afghanistan or Iraq. I would make a movie about real American heroes…

...

DEUTSCH: Unfortunately sir, they have made movies like that recently and unfortunately Americans turn it off

MILLER: I’m sorry, which movie were you referring to?

DEUTSCH: Real life fighters in Iraq and Afghanistan, they’ve done documentaries…

Deutsch missed Miller's point (because he wasn't listening, probably), and the movies that Deutsch refers to failed precisely because they were anti-American and attempted to portray Americans as either foolish or evil, or both. Deutsch calls Miller ignorant, but he is the ignorant one.

I continue to be amazed at how rich even fools can get in America.

A guy with the last name of “Deutsch” un-American? Who woulda thunk it?

I’ve heard his name mentioned once or twice but have never watched even a moment of his show.
