The Dirty Liberal Media, unaccustomed to seeing their boy lampooned on SNL, feels the need to fact check last Saturday night's sketch on Obama's "accomplishments". I saw this on Hotair.com and nearly fell out of my seat. Are you kidding me? They are fact checking comedy skits that nail Hopey to the wall now? My God. I must have missed all the corrections during the Bush years. Then again, I'm usually passed out on the front lawn in my underwear by 11:30 PM most Saturday nights so I'm not sure they got anything wrong about Bush back then. Anyway, their fact checking is wrong. Personally, I think CNN is funnier than SNL these days anyway.

CNN Journalist Has a Crush on Obama
I guess I should point out that his crush is on Michelle Obama, not Barack. It's not like it's obvious anymore.
Creepy times we're living in. CNN's Jack Cafferty writes:
I think I am developing a crush on America's first lady. Michelle Obama is more compelling than her husband. He's good, but she's utterly fascinating.The journalistic masturbation continues in a very bizarre manner.
Mrs. Obama has blown away the stale air in a White House musty from eight years of the Bushes. It's like the sun came out and a fresh spring breeze began wafting through the open windows.
It's the people's house, and Michelle Obama totally gets it. So much so that she has taken to inviting people in from the streets to see her home. Nice touch -- one completely lacking in her recent predecessors.
Watch her when she visits a local school and you see the warmth and affection she instantly triggers in people. Kids are pretty much totally honest with very good BS-detectors. If they sense you're a phony, forget it. But around the first lady, they want to hug her and laugh with her and tell her stories.
"the warmth and affection she instantly triggers in people"
Is this man out of his damn mind? Sure, if you're a socialist and not white, you should get along just find with Chaka. I guess Cafferty has forgotten her past remarks insulting Americans. I guess he has overlooked her angry militant core. I have neither forgotten nor overlooked. I've seen her without her makeup.

Good God! Listen to these CNN Commentators Blame Gaza Deaths on America ---And Hey. Check Out the Jewish and Palestinian Chick Doing Battle
This video is disturbing on so many levels. These people make me sick. And oh man, catch the tail end of the video where the commentator starts to express his faith in the Messiah, Barack Obama. The video cuts off, but he clearly is beginning to posit that "maybe Barack Obama can...". Yeah buddy. Hope in one hand and poop in the other. Tell me which one fills up faster.

CNN New Year's Coverage Goes Straight in the Crapper -- Kathy Griffin Unleashes Vulgar Barrage at Heckler
This was live and on air on New Year's Eve. Comedian Kathy Griffin says [while going to commercial] to a heckler in Times Square- "Screw you, I'm working. Why don't you get a job, buddy. You know what? I don't go to your job and knock the dicks out of your mouth." Nice job CNN.

OBAMA MEDIA GOONS SINK STRAIGHT TO THE SEWER
Here was AJ Strata's take:
I just watched the most amazing bit of TV in decades - I cannot wait to see the YouTube version of it. Wolf Ditzer (aka Blitzer) was hosting Gloria Berger, Bill Bennet, Donna Brazille an John King (I believe) on The Situation Room and were discussing young Bristol Palin’s (Governor Palin’s oldest daughter) pregnancy and her plans to have the baby and marry the father. At the center of this discussion was Barack Obama’s call to keep the families (and these personal decisions) off limits. But what does CNN do? They air a woman reporter who ran to Alaska questioning the entire abstinence position of Governor Palin in light of her daughter’s pregnancy. It was pathetic.
Besides the Duh factor that abstinence works every time it is tried (pregnancies being proof of the opposite) Bill Bennet was rightfully outraged at CNN and Blitzer for bringing the Palin family’s personal issues into the debate like this. Bennett was hammering Blitzer who did not want to concede CNN crossed the line.
John King was looking just stunned and as if he was going to get sick. He wanted nothing to do with the muck raking by CNN. And Gloria Berger basically agreed with Bennett and said Bristol Palin should be off limits - and then just sneered at Blitzer and looked apologetically to the camera.
Blitzer ‘the ditz’ was stunned to silence. Only Brazille, the Democrat attack dawg, tried to make some connection. CNN could not keep itself out of the gutter, and fell into the sewer with that one.

CNN CAVES AND APOLOGIZES TO CHINA: GETS A BIG "FU" IN RETURN
China on Thursday snubbed an apology from CNN over remarks by one of its commentators as a wave of verbal assaults on foreign media raised concerns over coverage at this summer's Beijing Olympics.Punked
Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Jiang Yu rejected CNN's explanation that commentator Jack Cafferty was referring to China's leaders — not the Chinese people — when he described them as "goons and thugs." CNN said it apologized to anyone who thought otherwise.
But Jiang said at a regularly scheduled news conference that the CNN statement lacked sincerity and instead "turned its attack on the Chinese government to try to sow division between the Chinese government and the people."
The head of the ministry's information department summoned CNN's bureau chief in Beijing on Wednesday night to deliver a near identical protest.
CNN has been singled out by the Chinese government and unknown activists who have phoned and e-mailed death threats to Western reporters. Most of the criticism of the Atlanta-based network concerns a photograph posted on its Web site weeks ago which cropped out Tibetans throwing stones at Chinese security forces.
The Big Feed has been tracking this story. Read more here.

CHINA IS TREATING THE WORLD AS IT TREATS ITS CITIZENS
China demanded an apology from CNN on Tuesday after network commentator Jack Cafferty called the country's leaders a "bunch of goons and thugs" and said its products were "junk."Goons and thugs
It was the latest flare-up after Beijing accused Western media of bias in its reporting following violent protests in the Tibetan capital last month. Atlanta-based CNN has been singled out by some Chinese who say overseas news outlets are smearing Beijing.
"We are shocked and strongly condemn the vicious remarks by Cafferty," Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Jiang Yu said. "We solemnly request CNN and Cafferty himself take back the malicious remarks and apologize to the Chinese people."
Cafferty made the remarks during an appearance on CNN's daily political news program, "The Situation Room," that aired April 9, according to a transcript posted on CNN's Web site.
He was speaking about the U.S. trade deficit with China when he said, according to the transcript, "We continue to import their junk with the lead paint on them and the poisoned pet food and export, you know, jobs to places where you can pay workers a dollar a month to turn out the stuff that we're buying from Wal-Mart."
"So I think our relationship with China has certainly changed," he continued. "I think they're basically the same bunch of goons and thugs they've been for the last 50 years.
A mood of angry nationalism has spurred government officials to lash out at foreign critics, trying to stay ahead of public resentment — even fury — that foreigners may spoil the Summer Olympics party with what some see as unwarranted criticism.Death threats
Several foreign journalists, including correspondents for USA Today and The Times of London, say they've received death threats.
And the Chinese aren't limiting their criticism to Western journalists.
Beijing considers its Western critics, who have raised pressure on leaders to boycott the Games' opening ceremony and marred part of a global torch relay with chaotic protests, are unfairly mixing sports and politics.
The Dalai Lama repeated on Friday that he opposed a boycott of the Beijing Olympics, but that has cut little ice with the Chinese authorities.
Chinese television on Sunday showed reporters searching for people it said were listed by the Dalai Lama's supporters as victims of the riot and the government crackdown that followed.
Five who were listed with their Lhasa addresses were either alive or invented, state television said.
Foreign journalists are currently barred from Tibet so Reuters cannot verify reports of casualties.
Xinhua also targeted Pelosi, the speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, after she backed a resolution urging dialogue with the Dalai Lama, the end of a crackdown on non-violent protesters and a halt to repression in the region.
The People's Daily accused the California Democrat of cynical double standards and said she would likely top any Chinese poll to find "the most disgusting figure."
"Pelosi would remain the least popular person for China if she stiff-neckedly clings to her double standards and an anti-China stance," the commentary added.
Pelosi is disgusting
China is showing its global immaturity by trying to treat the world press and world politicians as it does its own people. Stubbornly rejecting any difference in thought and trying to bully its critics into silence. The Olympics, which was supposed to be China's coming out party, is showing the world just how backward, oppressive and ignorant the Chinese government, and the society it has created are. The Chinese government knows that its economic ascendancy depends on the continued oppression of its subjects while, at the same time, convincing the world that it is making progress in the way of human rights. But rather than actually changing its practices, it lashes out blindly, accusing Western media and Western governments of treating China unfairly. Just as it stifles dissent within its own borders, it attempts to stifle dissent outside its borders. China doesn't necessarily do this because it feels it's the best way to change world opinion. It simply knows no other way of dealing with dissent or difference than to bully. And that, characteristic, more than any, should be a warning to all nations of the world as China aspires to become a global economic and military superpower.

CNN: BASHING CHINA IS NOT THE ANSWER - REGARDLESS: BRING YOUR POPCORN
CNN.com/Asia is running a commentary entitled "Bashing China is not the Answer". Not surprisingly, the commentary is written by a Chinese person, L. Ling-chi Wang. Mr. Wang says, among other things:"Sadly, most Americans know little about international issues and for that matter, China, as demonstrated by the conspicuous absence of information regarding historical context and complexity. Instead, the media, politicians and organized groups prefer to use only sound bites and, frequently, disinformation to perpetuate ignorance, instill fear, and incite racial hostility, or worse, hatred toward China.Wang Dang Sweet Poontang
Humility and compassion, not hypocrisy and self-righteousness, is what is needed."
Fo rizzle Mr. Wang?. That's all I know about China? Nah Wang. I know some other stuff about China too. Lots of stuff. Military secret stealing, organ harvesting, Tibetan Monk beating, ain't a fat chance in hell anyone in China will ever be allowed to read my blog kinda stuff. And that's coming Wang Dang Doodle. In the weeks to come, that's coming. You might want to stay tuned. Cause it's gonna get butt ugly up in here for your team. "Humility and compassion is what is needed". Blogger please. I'm about to make bashing China my hobby. You wanna debate me? Or are you yella?
