I WANT MSNBC TO DEFEND THIS … MARK THIS UNDER SICK & DEPRAVED!
Last week MSNBC took Free Republic, a conservative website, to task for threaded comments made about the Obamas’. Since I have occasionally posted over at Free Republic and I know how the site runs and the bloggers who post there, something didn’t feel right about the episode. It looked to me like there was a lurker up there digging for dirt.
Turns out I was right, according to Gateway Pundit . . .
Daily Kos Far Left Nutjob Caught In Blogging Scandal
A Vancouver reporter accused Free Republic of allowing racist comments this weekend.
But, oddly enough, this same Vancouver Sun reporter, Chris Parry, has a very controversial background. He has advocated on Daily Kos for liberals to post hate speech on conservative blogs and blame it on conservatives.What a strange coincidence?
The bogus comments over at Free Republic were mild, mild in comparison to this trash that is up on “revered” liberal websites like Wonkette, where Palin hatred is spewed out in copious volumes.
H/T to Legal Insurrection where this appeared just before Sarah Palin resigned as Governor of Alaska.
It really is hard to understand why some adults feel the need to make fun of Trig Palin, a one-year old who has Down Syndrome. Politics alone cannot explain it. If you don’t like Sarah Palin, fine, but why go after Trig?
All the attacks on Trig are Sarah’s fault, according to the Wonkette post, since Sarah had the audacity to bring Trig on stage at the Republican National Convention (where the original photo in question was taken), which Wonkette calls using Trig as a “cheap political prop.” I guess that makes the Obama kids fair game according to Wonkette since they were brought on stage at the Democratic National Convention.
The controversy regarding the Photoshop of Trig by Alaskan blogger Linda Biegel is only the tip of the iceberg. Ever since Sarah’s nomination, Trig has been a target. Last fall, the popular DC-based “gossip” website Wonkette joked how Trig must have wished he’d been aborted. Now Wonkette has taken Biegel’s Photoshop antics as an excuse to go after Trig anew.
In a recent post, Wonkette promoted and joked about even cruder Photoshops of Trig at the Something Awful web forum, where people can post anonymously (examples below). Wonkette even included one of these photoshops in its post (above right) while mocking Trig as the “New Jesus,” “Holy Infant” and “Sacred One.”
This one of the photos proudly displayed and linked to Wonkette.
Some of the others are so vile and depraved I refused to post them here. It is hard to comprehend this kind of sick hatred. And before anyone wants to defend these images as “humor” don’t. There is nothing humorous about this. This is cowardly.
Which brings me to MSNBC.
Seems the network is unable to display anything but selective outrage. Olbermann can get worked up over planted racist comments about the Obamas over at Free Republic but not a word about this kind political pornography. Tell me sir, where is your outrage over this?
Years ago during the McCarthy hearings this famous question was asked of Senator McCarthy … “Have you no sense of decency?”
I couldn’t have put it any better!
