On another note about the liberal press, why did they hide the guys race? I never even new the guy carrying was black until I saw a pic on the web but yet it was talked about for days on end.

Daily Gut: Does MSNBC Want a Race War?
by Greg Gutfeld
So on Tuesday, we did a segment on this black dude who showed up in Arizona where Barack Obama was speaking – with an assault weapon and a pistol strapped to his shoulder. We all pretty much agreed, that despite his actions being legal, it was still idiotic. There are many things in life that are legal, but totally nuts if done at the wrong time. For example, when I shower I’m completely naked – no law against that. However, try showing up nude at a Jonas Brothers lunch box signing – that’s another story (I blame it on the Ambien).



But this leads me to MSNBC, where on Tuesday Contessa Brewer – someone I’d like to see in a shower - filed a report about health care protesters showing up armed. In it, she used tape of that same black man carrying an assault rifle and said “there are questions about whether this has racial overtones….white people showing up with guns.”

Of course, like I said – the guy was black. But you never would have known. Because MSNBC has strategically edited the tape, so the race of the armed dude wasn’t revealed. You just assumed he was white, thanks to Contessa.

Take a look at the tape from the MSNBC segment:

humph. Well, I didn't see that particular segment, but I do watch MSNBC all the time, and on the shows I watch, they most certainly DID show the guy's face and his race. Still, I agree that a LOT of the anger out there IS because we have a black man as president, and a lot of the animosity IS race driven.

Bullshit - only among the uninformed/ignorant. Stop being such a patsy to the extremists.

I think this line's mostly filler.

You can't have it both ways.
