MSM Vulture (Catharsis aura)


MSM Vultures

Common Name: MSM Vulture
Scientific Name: Catharsis Aura
Class: Aves
Order: Falconiformes
Family: Cathartidae

DESCRIPTION: This vulture has a thick head.  It has beady eyes that are always looking rightward for any sign of weakness.  The female is usually larger and heavier than the more effeminate male of the species.  Only a few of the species believe in individuality, but most define their lives according to group identity.

HABITAT: Begins its life in nests located in ivory towers then migrates to coastal cities like NYC and LA (sometimes Chicago and Washington DC).

PREDATOR: of Sarah Palin, Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, etc., anyone that can still understand that puzzling 100+ year old document known as “The Constitution”, and any American citizen that wants to limit Federal government power or spending.

OUTLOOK: These birds are threatened with extinction due to (1) their peculiar habit of pecking off their right wing, effectively making them unable to stay balanced and (2) a growing indifference of the American public to left-wing-only news.

NOTES: MSM Vultures are loud birds.  They will hiss and squawk continuously whenever there are political points to be scored for the left.  They are born with a guilty conscience, but assuage that guilt by making a big show of assigning blame to the American Right (regardless of the facts) – thus leading to catharsis.

Would made the point more clear and despicable. The true face of media basis.

 

Exactly, but...

While the statement that the Constitution is a “…100+ year old document…” is not incorrect, a statement that it is a 200+ year old document would be better.

Hint: Google "Ezra Klein constitution". nt

“A government at bottom is nothing more than a group of men, and as a practical matter most of them are inferior men… Yet these nonentities, by the intellectual laziness of men in general… are generally obeyed as a matter of duty [and] assumed to have a kind of wisdom that is superior to ordinary wisdom.” -H.L. Menken

 
 
 

MSM should be careful

Was John Hinckley Jr. , motivated and consumed by vitriolic right wing rhetoric? Actually, Hinckley was motivated by an obsession with Jodie Foster. How about Squeaky Fromme or even Lee Harvey Oswald? I think Oswald was an oath taking Communist. What about the persons or person who murdered Leon Trotsky in Mexico City with an ice pick? And Leon Czolgosz, murderer of President William McKinley? I think the history of assassins shows that most were left wing nut jobs consumed with vitriolic left wing rhetoric

MSM doesn't care . . . they are just shills for the Democrats

And they will hold a fig leaf over it not for our benefit, but to assuage their own guilty consciences.

(mainly MSNBS) they’ve gone from blaming the right wing directly to a generic negative political tone as the culprit. Since they haven’t been able to find a smoking you-know-what to tie the shooter to Conservative politics they must use a fallback reason.
Now “both sides” are equally to blame, except of course (wink, wink) it’s still basically the right’s fault.

Unfortunately, this weekend Fox News fell into this never-ending-loop of no new news, psychological evaluations from afar, and speculation with no basis in fact.

Congressman who is trying to make all “hateful” symbols a federal offense. This is an insullt to Rep. Giffords who just before the tragedy read on the House floor the 1st Amendment. Does this guy really think that anyone would support such an attack on one of our most prized freedoms?

On a separate, but related note, it seems that more evidence is coming out that this had little to do with poilitics. It seems that this deranged madman had been tracking Rep. Giffords since 2007 (way before anyone even knew who Palin was or the Tea Party) and that (shock!) he has ties to the occult.

 

Lying lycanthropes of the left with their fangs

dripping venom will never let a tragedy go to waste.
Alinskyites,Kossites,MSNBNOTC´s and others will always try to manufacture something out of whole cloth to somehow put the blame on the rhetoric of the conservatives while it has always been the left who has incited violence.

 

The shooter and the Congress woman were not strangers

as he worked in her campaign, and she subscribed to his nutty UTube page. There is more of a relationship there than the vaunted MSM has minimally tried to discover, because they have their narrative (a la the Duke lacrosse debacle) and that’s what they are stuck with.

Even their chronic resurrection of Timothy McVeigh is specious as McVeigh came from a family registered as Dems. and his father was an active union member.

Exactly - Giffords 'knew' this wacko for a long time.

I think all of this past history needs to be exposed FULLY.
The left already has egg on their faces……. and I want to rub it in.
The lefty lame stream media has p!ssed me off (again) and I imagine that is also true for a lot of responsible conservatives.
grrrr

Put names on them Toby

Put Krugman, Blitzer and Couric instead of M-S-M. I wish someone would start a media campaign against theseb folks —–personally.
The MSM have names—–let’s start naming names. Tea Party should have a PR campaign and call them out on ads in papers and on billboards. Make them think twice before they start slandering innocent people. They will get away with this again because they have no shame. Put Couric in an ad and shame the $&@$ out of her. Start with her or Olbermann and keep up the pressure until they crack and move on. They lie. We have the proof.

Unfair to Vultures, unlike the MSM they..

1. Provide a vital public service.
2. Have a nose for events.
3. Do a thorough job, leaving no bone unturned.
4. Don’t jump to conclusions, the carrion has to actually have passed on.
5. Wear their ugliness on the outside.
6. Gag on Keith Olbermann.
7. Have an evolutionary niche.
