RE: Now if Fox would fire him too.
NOT A GOOD IDEA. If you want to be “fair and balanced” (emphasis on the later), you’ll need a liberal foil for most of the right leaning talking heads there.
Speaking of foils, where on earth is Alan Colmes?
I know he was pretty disgusted by the high-tech lynching of Clarence Thomas.
The guy from CAIR just said on Fox that Juan just didn’t “fit” at NPR.
Of course he did. CAIR doesn’t need any kinks in their propaganda machine.
Thanks for answering my question. I was always wondering what gives, why does the media always suck up the Muslims when they MURDERED thousands of innocent people on 9/11..yeah I said it..they did it, and unlike Bill O’Reilly I won’t apologize either because its true. I think its because the left hates America as much as the Muslims do so they have a bond, I wouldn’t be surprised if that is part of the reason
RE: Whoopi Goldberg’s response was absolutely priceless hypocricy.
I missed that, what did she say?
The other 5,621 channels are the foils.
Alan who? :-)
“Beat me to it.”
Great Minds....
He accidently said Mooselimbs scared him on airplanes.
Pray for America
“NPR is racist. Juan might decide to leave the plantation and pull a Bernie Goldberg.”
I don’t think so. Just heard on Rush that Juan was on Fox today calling the Tea Partiers racist.
RE: Much of the media world is owned by Muslims.
Well, that means wherever Juan Williams goes in the media, he’s sure to meet a Muslim owner.
Fox News, where he also works, is partially owned by Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal,
Its the “I’m the best Dhimmi” syndrome. A kind of survival by submission reflex, where they sense a resolve in the Islamist movement which is superior to their own, and decide their best bet is to suck up. I really think that’s it. But it is horribly misguided, because in a perfect Sharia world, they’re toast anyway. And that’s why the only way to meet that resolve is with a greater resolve, that we will live as a free people, no matter how hard or long the fight.
Well I must admit you have a point there. So after he tells all they can fire him.
Fox needs to have Juan on periodically just like they do Bernie Goldberg.
Totenberg
Eight years after NPR’s Nina Totenberg, on Inside Washington, wished death upon Senator Jesse Helms (“If there is retributive justice, he’ll get AIDS from a transfusion, or one of his grandchildren will get it”), on the same show over the weekend she seemingly desired to hasten the death of Army General Jerry Boykin for having supposedly expressed the view that the war on terrorism “is a Christian crusade against Muslims.” Totenberg hatefully advocated: “I hope he’s not long for this world.” http://www.mediaresearch.org/cyberalerts/2003/cyb20031020.asp
I don’t think so. Just heard on Rush that Juan was on Fox today calling the Tea Partiers racist.
Juan is a confused liberal and is in limbo right now.
I guaran-damn-tee you that this an escalation of the Soros war on Fox, nothing else. The purges have begun.
But I think the bottom line is that there are things Fox won't tolerate. They may be less crazy than NPR, but Fox is also kept on a leash by the Masters.
Multiculturalism is killing us.
It silences voices of opposition to the most evil threat since Nazi Germany. If we are unable to call evil by its name, it will be impossible to marshall the moral force of the nation to commit to the long struggle ahead. Even worse, it is letting our enemies destroy us from within.
BTW:
Does anyone know if any official has announced that the government of the United States considers Nidal Hassan of Fort Hood infamy an Islamic terrorist? And, does anyone know if military base policy on carrying weapons has been revised since the advent of that entirely avoidable tragedy for our wonderful soldiers?
If the answer to either of these questions is no, it is just an excellent case in point: Multiculturalism is killing us.
islam is not a religion. It is a treasonous socio/political construct. It sucks. As does allah, sharia, moohommud, mosques and anything else asociated with islam.
When the economy takes a downturn, corporate boards scrap most exec jet frills. That is no longer the case when Jihadi's are frequent flyers over at Capital One.
Juan risked outing NPR's private airline which was slightly above Juan's paygrade.
Every university, bank, insurance firm, etc.... equips their own jihad-free airlines for their private use. Juan struck a nerve over what was most likely an internal issue at NPR.
The problem with many of the politically correct media types out there is they REFUSE to understand what a person is saying and then in a BROAD BRUSH, paint the person either as racist, X-phobic (where X is Islam, Homosexual, or any minority group ), or biased.
Listen to what Juan Williams said IN CONTEXT (In other words, EVERYTHING HE SAID, NOT JUST THE PHRASE OR SENTENCE YOU WANT TO PICK ON ).
The offending (and fireable) remark was that he gets nervous when he sees identifiably Muslim people getting on a plane.
How different is that remark from what Jesse Jackson said years ago : “There is nothing more painful to me at this stage in my life than to walk down the street and hear footsteps and start thinking about robbery. Then look around and see somebody white and feel relieved.... After all we have been through. Just to think we can’t walk down our own streets, how humiliating.”
Juan Williams is as about as anti-Muslim as Jesse Jackson is anti-black. Indeed, consider everything else he said. Williams went on to speak up in favor of those “people who want to somehow remind us all as President Bush did after 9/11, it’s not a war against Islam.”
He warned against painting with too broad a brush: “If you said Timothy McVeigh, the Atlanta bomber, these people who are protesting against homosexuality at military funerals, very obnoxious, you don’t say first and foremost, we got a problem with Christians. That’s crazy.”
He said that, in the German context, the problem is not Muslims, it’s “extremists.” And he cautioned against rhetoric that might incite anti-Muslim violence: “I don’t know what is in that guy’s head [the guy who slashed the New York City cabbie a few weeks ago]. But I’m saying, we don’t want in America, people to have their rights violated to be attacked on the street because they heard a rhetoric from Bill O’Reilly and they act crazy.”
What NPR did to Juan Williams is TOTALLY SHAMEFUL.
