Eugene Robinson: GOP "Just Making Stuff Up"

[marcxopoco]

Eugene Robinson, the Affirmative Action 'journalist.'

[SeymoreLipshits]

I don't know what is more annoying or frustrating here.

Listening to that person with the mishapen face "Rachel Madow" speaking and complaining about how bad the Republicans are all the time, Or Listening to Eugene Robinson try and speak without sounding like a completely ignorant person? I think,uhhhhhhhhh, Obama,Uhhhhhhhhhhh, and the the democrats uhhhhhhhhhh, sh should,uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. If your going to mmake an argument get someone who doesnt ssound totally ignorant! uhhhhhhhhh

[rleary1]

@SeymoreLipshits How dare you sir! Robinson's 'First Name' is 'Pullitzer Prize Winning'! Address him correctly sir!I do agree with U about Maddow PPW tho! They are huge Partisan hacks like assholes Limbaugh, Beck & especially Keith Olbermann. I had to turn Keith off after his 'Friday's w/Thurber' crap.Rush & Beck are simply insane but I kind of like LouDobbs because he HATES everyone.I think that's a healthy route these days since scum are running & selling off our country to the highest bidder

[AlabamaConfederacy]

What the hell does this negro know. He thinks just because he doesnt talk or dress like the rest of his homeboys he knows something. This guy is complete jackass. What about all the stuff democrats just make up all the time.

[bigman9099]

@AlabamaConfederacy

You are the complete jackass! Robinson is smarter than your whold DNA chain moron.

[demslibssuck]

Two words: Inconvenient Truth.

[UBUICounterAttack]

Eugene, congratulation on winning the Pulitzer award. You definitely deserved it..

[radreader01]

@UBUICounterAttack

Right like Obama deserved the Nobel Peace Prize. Give me a friggin break!!

[djdeath12]

persnickety is that a word? what the hell does that word mean?

[incrowdcynic]

You should really do more reading.

[incrowdcynic]

Surprisingly, you spelled the word, which is unknown to you, correctly. The next step is finding a good dictionary. Happy hunting.

[TedinLasVegas]

Again, nothing new.

Its the same thing Demonrats did when Republicans were in charge.

Why didn't these hypocrites/"journalists" jump all over Reid and Olberman when they lied about Republicans in charge 6 years ago....????

[letsgetsurgical]

Both sides make crap up and lie constantly, if you can't see that you're truly ignorant. To say one side is making more up than the other is fking stupid- the point is they're LIARS AND DECEIVERS whose only goal is to gain and keep office. As long as people try to figure out who the lesser of two evils are, they will never have a chance to vote for NO evil.

[onlywinter]

persnickety! Fuck you GOP! Your days are numbered unless you become socially liberal.  Fiscal conservatism can be better justified than social conservatism any day.

[DillonX]

The DEMS are gonna get their 60 Senate Seats in 2010 (next yr) & if the GOP doesn't cut out the lies, BS, & crap, it's gonna be 65 or more.

[imaginepeace63]

60 seats does not mean anything if the dems can't learn how to stck together and stand up to the republicans. Look at Evan Bayh and his conservadems. They are no better than the republicans.

[thebeattitudes]

I think if anyone is making stuff up it would be Joe Biden. But msnbc turns their back on this

[eminance67]

Its gotta be hard to be affiliated with a party that isn't coming up with any ideas of value, or any at all for that matter. Slide up a side of piping hot bullchit lies on nearly every issue and you've got to find it hard to swallow.

[wervasdeferens]

GOPers like to Teabag each other

[GrandOldPartytime]

Thats not appropriate

[wervasdeferens]

LOL, ok not ALL, just most.

GrandOldPartytime, do you like fishsticks?

[simonnewtboy]

I love fishticks! They feel great in my mouth!

[voyeurdug]

George Will, pompous? Naaah. Really?

[spikesmth]

Persnickety, I might have to start using that word.

[DeimosSaturn]

It reminds me of when Ben Stein continually repeats that evolution is the belief that life came from lightning striking a mud puddle despite millions of emails and blogs correcting him.

[quiveringpalm]

Eugene is a true black man.

[gsuitter]

quiveringpalm "Eugene is a true black man".

Is that an observation on your part that Eugene is not a white guy in black face or that he espouses an ideological point of view required to be "truly black"?

[mavaddat]

No no, he simply meant he's not a hologram. Clearly though, his ideological point of view is one that a hologram would hold, thus requiring the clarification.

[buffalosouljah18]

No, YOU'RE wrong. He said republicans, not GOP, there's a difference. That's generalizing every republican. Ron Paul, a republican, is actually a cool guy, not an idiot.

[mavaddat]

buffalosouljah18, did you mean to reply to vonBeavis? You accidentally replied to me.

[buffalosouljah18]

My bad.

[Karlfalcon]

Ron Paul is not a Republican. He only joined the party because he figured he didn't stand a chance running for a third party.

[buffalosouljah18]

Ron Paul, any American Republican, it doesn't matter. Generalizing something just makes you look like an idiot.

[Hereticbooks]

GOP and Republican are the same thing. Do you know what G.O.P. even stands for?

[buffalosouljah18]

Nevermind what it stands for. I'll say this again for the dumb and ignorant, generalizing a group of people based on their party affiliation is idiotic. He said all republicans. Now everybody wants to get in the conversation like they understand what is going on but they don't. One sided people are really retarded, it doesn't matter if you're an elephant or a jackass, both of you one-sided groups are really fucking retarded. In the end, I don't care, however I still had to reply to dumbasses.

[milkgodnl]

buffalosouljah18, ..

But wouldn't you agree that the GOP of late has been making up stuff more often and by any measure than do the Dems? ..

[buffalosouljah18]

Lol@ wervasdeferens

Yea, I agree, but again, let's not generalize...oh forget it. His post and my post were both deleted.

[valgehiir]

quiveringpalm, as opposed to untrue black man? semi-black man? True black woman?

[quiveringpalm]

As opposed to house negro

[3star2nr]

here comes the rush of conservatives and obama haters

[WKaliberr]

GOP sucks

only idiots are republicans

[buffalosouljah18]

Way to differentiate poeple according to parties. What a sheep.

[vonBeavis]

No, you're wrong and WKaliberr is right--the GOP sucks, and they are just making stuf up. What a sorry bunch of unpatriotic asshats.

[Karlfalcon]

These are the death throes of the GOP.

As a former Hard-right Republitard I'm getting an immense thrill out of watching them go the way of the Whigs and Federalists.

[cosmosgato]

I didn't think it could get this bad.

The GOP has become an irrational angry mob.

I voted for Reagan back in the day.

I'm not a dem.

[ver506]

Good for you! I admit that i'm liberal, but seriously, i'm yet to hear anything construstive from the GOP. I like to think that i can keep an open mind, and if i hear any good ideas from the GOP, i'll recognize it. Still waiting.......

[letsgetsurgical]

Lining up with one party because the other seems incompetent is NOT keeping an open mind, it's keeping your mind closed to all ideas that don't come from either. Do some research, find out what policies you agree with, and pick the candidate who represents those views (or none at all; in that case, run for office). Don't sit around and wait for someone to say things on a campaign trail you happen to agree with.

[ver506]

WOW, you've got me all figured out there....lol...dude, take a chill pill!

Why so serious? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[carrierexchange]

The republicans don't know what needs to be done in the US to fix it's problems; so they push propaganda with the sole purpose of discrediting the opposition.

[WhoRonPaul]

those governed despise truth

[baronmorris]

Viva Obama!

We may not agree with every decision, but dammit people, he's open to criticism & respectfully engages critics & attempts to explicate his methods & intentions, his triage of priorities, etc.

When I get mad at something he says or does, ie his disrespectful dismissal of the issue of marijuana legalization (#1 voted online topic of interest on Obama's site), I see that as an area where we need to educate him, by educating each other, building concensus, demonstrating, lobbying...

;-)

[SquallCloud]

Well said!

[437thx1138]

Bravo baronmorris. A vast improvement over the Neocon in chief.

[Richardgwm]

Republicans are flat out LIARS

[MonkeyFinger23]

Politicians are flat out liars.

[whispers83]

how many times have humans lied to themselves today?

[bigman9099]

@Richardgwm

True story.
