This video refers to this.
David Shuster really needs a show of his own. How many time must we say this, MSNBC, before you take us seriously?
Dr. Nancy? No. Other Guy Whose Name I Don't Even Know, but is the New Morning Guy? Uh-uh.
Shuster? Absolutely. Ten thumbs up.

"A typical street whore." "A bunch of ghetto thugs." "Ghetto street trash." "Wonder when she will get her first abortion."
There they are, folks. The Family Values Crowd. See how they value other people's families?
These are a small selection of some of the racially-charged comments posted to the conservative 'Free Republic' blog Thursday, aimed at U.S. President Barack Obama's 11-year-old daughter Malia after she was photographed wearing a t-shirt with a peace sign on the front.
A... peace sign? A peace sign?! Really? No more killing? What was she thinking? These would have obviously been so much more acceptable:
The thread was accompanied by a photo of Michelle Obama speaking to Malia that featured the caption, "To entertain her daughter, Michelle Obama loves to make monkey sounds."
Though this may sound like the sort of thing one might read on an Aryan Nation or white power website, they actually appeared on what is commonly considered one of the prime online locations for U.S. Conservative grassroots political discussion and organizing [...]
Moderators of the blog left the comments - and commenters - in place until a complaint was lodged by a writer doing research on the conservative movement, almost a full day later.
I'm sure it was just an oversight. No, wait. Freepers don't believe in oversight.
"Could you imagine what world leaders must be thinking seeing this kind of street trash and that we paid for this kind of street ghetto trash to go over there?" wrote one commenter.
"They make me sick .... The whole family... mammy, pappy, the free loadin' mammy-in-law, the misguided chillin', and especially 'lil cuz... This is not the America I want representin' my peeps," wrote another.
How American of them. How inclusive and Big Tenty. Why, I bet their next convention will have at least two African Americans... if the Tee Vee camera can find/train on them long enough before the planted "ghetto thugs" slip out the back door to collect their paychecks. The Extras Union is fussy that way.
Now take a deep breath, because you'll need oxygen after you read the next part. Check out the Freeps' "disclaimer", and then take in how well the Commenters abided by the rules:
A note on the front of the blog reads, "Free Republic does not advocate or condone racism, violence, rebellion, secession, or an overthrow of the government," but one comment on the thread read, "This disgusting display makes me more and more eager for the revolution," while another read, "I never actually wnated [sic] to be a pistol before but..."
Ahh, the inevitable mention of guns. We all knew they'd make an appearance. There's that Very Special violent streak we all know and abhor.
After attention from other blogs, the thread was suppressed and placed under review, but before long it was returned to the site intact, and attracted a new series of racial slurs when the original complaint email was posted publicly to the site, with the sender's email address intact.
But there's always that one deeply sensitive soul, in this case the Creepy Freepy Leader, whose wisdom is passed down to his Fellow Freepers:
"The writer has a point," wrote site owner Jim Thompson sarcastically. "We should steer clear of Obama's children. They can't help it if their old man is an American-hating Marxist pig."
His kindly influence was felt instantly. Why, just look at the resulting, er, empathy:
And then they all donned their fishing waders, joined hands in a show of unity, and dove back into the cesspool from which they originally oozed."I agree Jim," wrote commenter, by the nickname NoobRep. "The kids didn't pick their commie pinko pansy of a father. Nor did they choose to be put into the spotlight. But Obama/Soetoro is fair game and so is his witch of a wife."
"Poor kids. I hope they're not 'punished with a baby'," wrote another. "Hopefully they won't deal cocaine like the Kenyan."
"DIRTBAGS! All of them. Our [White House] is now a joke to the rest of the world. We have no respect and this is not going to turn out well, mark my words. We will be hit, and much worse than last time. We are now seen as weak and vulnerable. Ghetto and Chicago thugs have taken over."

Via our pal Mark at News Corpse, we find that Bloggers at Free Republic (aka Freepers) are leaving comments, and what comments they are! They're mad and they're not gonna take it any more. Wardrobe Barbie has been betrayed, and the Freepies are standin' up for their gal!"This thread would do really well at Daily Koz. They think this is a great idea. They even have the artwork ready…" Yes, that’s [Mark's] artwork posted by a Freeper.
The treatment of Sarah Palin by Fox reporter Carl Cameron and others has incensed them to the point where they are vowing never to watch again. [...]And looky here, kiddies! The Freepers have company!
- I propose that we punish the FOX Network for its hatchet job on Sarah Palin. For one week beginning at 3:00 PM today no one tunes them in. We will demonstrate the power of conservatives when their ratings plummet dramatically. Will you join me? [FYI: their boycott will have no affect whatsoever on the ratings unless a significant number of them are Nielsen families]
- I’m done with Teevee. Let them all go to hell.
- I am with you all the way my friend…i hope FOX goes off the air…hate em now…
- It would be easy. Nearly every show on FNC is unwatchable these days. ….for quite a while, in fact.
- fauxNEWS - We Distort, You Comply
- too late………I wrote them off months ago
- GO TO EVERY RIGHTWING BLOG AND TELL THEM TO TURN OFF FOX.
- Tell him he’s no better than the “smear merchants” and “bombthrowers” he holds in such contempt. Allowing Carl Cameron to spew unmitigated hearsay and garbage without one shred of supporting evidence or fact makes O’Reilly just as bad as the supermarket tabloids.
- Life without FOX is good.
- It’s not a secret that 81% of Fox News reporters and employees donate money to the Democratic party - that’s a crazy high number for an allegedly conservative TV channel. It’s no secret to the gay community that Shepard Smith is “one” of them.
- FOX now SUX bigtime!
- Screw them too. I have watched very little since their recent maniacal swerve left.
- If FOX wants me back they will bring on Glenn Beck and Rush. I have had it with weasels like Hannity and O’Reilly.[Beck is on the way]
The folks at RedState are weighing in as well with Operation Leper:We’re tracking down all the people from the McCain campaign now whispering smears against Governor Palin to Carl Cameron and others [...] We intend to constantly remind the base about these people, monitor who they are working for, and, when 2012 rolls around, see which candidates hire them. Naturally then, you’ll see us go to war against those candidates.
This may become a new Democratic spectator sport. Maybe we should build a coliseum.

Wow, we progressives have more power than I thought. We're making J Sid's team nervous. Now they've come up with a "witness" to the Cross in the Dirt tale, and what a witness he is!
Orson Swindle, a fellow POW, says that he remembers McCain telling the story about the cross in the dirt sometime in 1971.
Orson Swindle's charity, Consumers Against Government Waste, laundered money for Jack Abramoff. The Senate Finance Committee report is here.
In the least credible and most vicious corner of the internet, liberal bloggers at the Daily Kos are accusing John McCain of plagiarizing from Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn. The story Solzhenitsyn told was of a prisoner who drew a cross in the dirt in a Soviet Gulag. McCain's story is of a guard who drew a cross in the dirt in a Vietnamese prisoner of war camp.It goes on and on from there. You can read more of their little rant here. Meantime, as I mentioned down thread, we must give credit to the Righties for coming up with those lefty, hippie, liberal accusations first, as the post goes on to point out:
The McCain camp intends for Barack to cut off the Kos, ladies and gentlemen. Get ready because here it comes.Now back to real life already in progress.ETA: To make sure this stays right at the top (thanks, dlcox1958), the Free Republic made this charge first. Yes, Mr. O'Reilly, I'm talking to you and your staff.
