I love when progressives who’ve stood against Israeli settlements and “zionists” suddenly find compassion for Jewish people, even if it’s manufactured compassion to feign straw man outrage at conservatives. Baby steps!
While watching this interview with Frances Fox Piven posted below, I momentarily missed Olbermann. Sure, he was a far-left partisan, but he was an entertaining broadcaster, something from which his socialist views cannot detract.
Here is MSNBC sub Cenk Uygur in a bizarre interview with Piven right after he tries to make Glenn Beck out to be anti-semitic because some of the people he criticizes are or may be Jewish:
Considering that many pundits openly admitted to not even knowing who she was, I hardly believe that they knew she came from Russian parents of Jewish descent. Does it matter? When someone makes insane comments, do we first need to ask for everyone’s laminated identity politick card before freely criticizing them? Or can we criticize the merits of someone’s argument without regard for religion or ethnicity?

What I love is when people call communists “progressive”. There is nothing about moving ahead with freedom and liberty, with the Liberals. They only want freedom for their own special favorites. The rest of us, who do not think like they do, or have the same values they do, can all be killed, for all they care.
That isn’t progress, that is regress...lets call them “Regressives” because they would like to go back to the time of aristocracy, a time of being plantation owners who ‘take care’ of their workers! They want us to work, to finance their lifestyle. Think Obama’s 360 days away from the White House on vacation is a clear example of that kind of regressive aristocracy.
I’m wondering if hiring Uygur isn’t a sign that Comcast is letting MSNBC commit suicide. Crashing the entire network into the side of a mountain might be a means of getting rid of a lot of overpaid “talent”.
Do these “Progressives” know that Glenn Beck has a Official Rabbi for his programs?
Karl Marx was Jewish, wonder what they’d say if Glenn talked about him? Geez, so you can’t report on what these people say or stand for if they are black or Jewish leftists/Marxist/socialist...hmmmm But, if your Christian, white, non-Jewish or conservative(doesn’t matter what color you are then), look out....the word bully comes to mind.
Rabbi Lapin (my radio rabbi) was the first person I thought of. This is silly and transparent. They’re not even good at this.
Libtards use the argument from intimidation to bypass logic and argument and try to stifle disagreement by using psychological pressure. It takes the form of: only someone who is a racist, or antisemitic, or bigoted, etc. could dare criticize a Jewish commie or a black commie. They hope that the criticizer will be so filled with guilt that he will stop.But it is really a sign of an intellectual vacuum that the libtards are trying to hide.
It will fool the welfare recipients and leeches and that’s all that matters.
His questions were inane and silly. Her responses were disjointed babble.
They threw in lots of random leftist phrases and unrelated talking points, with an attempt at some JonStewartish snidery, but it had no coherent direction or point.
And that terrific fizzle out ending! It was like there was a mental generator failure on both ends, plunging the entire segment into an immediate mental blackout. As they both just sat there sorta breathing, I was waiting for the janitor to come in and turn out the lights.
I do not know the name of a single blog I don't read.
Good point. And while we are at it let us not repeat the semantic traps by referring to socialistic policies like RE-distribution of wealth - it is is simply confiscation and distribution of wealth. And let us not refer to our economic system as "Capitalism" (the marxist overtones play into their hands). Let's just call it "free enterprise".
Piven is Jewish? Who in the wide world of sports cares?
Good work...
That’s funny!
Replacing Olbermann with Uygur is like swapping out an angry drunken pilot for a suicide bomber.
