Re: some pics the media didn't show you
Here is one I found in 2 mins of searching. At 1:36 of the video on this page the tern "nigger" can clearly be heard.
Link
I didn't hear it. I think I heard "traitor... go home". It certainly wasn't clear.
Try again?

Thats right because since their signs were so racist they certainly wouldn't say anything that was racist.
Logic please....
Me telling you that you're your wrong and they didn't say nigger isn't me saying they cannot be racist
You're just seeing what you want to see.

Doesnt sound like traitor to me. Listened to it 5 times.
Yeah, its sounds like nigger to you because you're hearing what you want to hear.
Well I listened to it 10 times, and I never heard the word nigger.
You're acting like its common knowledge that the teabaggers said nigger.
The only thing I can find is The "Liberal" Media saying that some guy said some teabagger said nigger.
It looks to me like Faith has provided an example of the supposed leftist bias.
Its interesting to me that you're so strongly believing it that its effecting your hearing. Can you really clearly hear them say nigger?
And the hypocrisy of telling her that she's detached from reality This should answer some of your questions here: Message 299

I am willing to admit that it might not be nigger. It may be another word.
That's nice.
There have been many people that have stated they heard nigger.
You're one of them.
Are you saying they are liars.?
Nope. I believe that you could have sincerely heard nigger.
Well since they had racist slogans on signs, is it such a stretch?
Sorta.
First off, what you'd call racist could easily not be. You're prolly more "sensitive" than them.
Second, they're protest signs
Go on defend there signs.
Oh okay. Here's the funniest of '09 (there's some good ones in there). They're pretty ridiculous in the first place.
"They had racist signs"... c'mon now
Tell me how it is so ridiculous to entertain the thought that a person with a racist sign would yell something racist.
No, but you heard nigger too. You see a bunch of people with signs that offend you and you hear them say things you'd expect. You're biased. Its no big deal.
Did you see Faith's video of the guy getting "spit on"? Saying it like that doesn't reflect what happened. Those reports were biased... to the left.
Instead of actually saying it, you slyly imply you think I am an asshole, because I do not agree with you. Why don't you grow a pair and just call me an asshole in thread again.
It attracts unwanted attention Plus, I thought it was funnier that way.
Again I disagree with you so I am an asshole?
No, I don't care if you disagree with me. And actually, that's what I think of you.
And its typical of the leftists. If you don't tow the party line, then there must be something wrong with you. It usually boils down to them calling you a bigot or ignorant.
We can see this very behavior, from you, in this thread.
Do you truly believe there is a liberal media conspiracy?
Nope. I believe that some media has a liberal bias. It has been exemplified by the reports of the man being spit on.
What lameass thing are you going to jump all over me for next?
I only jumped on you because I thought that it was funny that you said that she was detached from reality and then go and be detached yourself by clearly hearing something that wasn't there.

Don't Say Gay Bill - article showing left bias
In the Another example of right wing evil thread, Taz links to a NY Daily News article:
http://articles.nydailynews.com/...s-activists-homosexuality
quote:
'Don't say gay' bill passes in Tennessee Senate, would ban teachers from discussing homosexuality
The Tennessee Senate passed a bill on Friday that would bar teachers from discussing homosexuality with elementary and middle school students.
Under the legislation, dubbed by critics as the "don't say gay" bill, any instruction in public classrooms will be "limited exclusively to age-appropriate natural human reproduction science."
Republican Stacey Campfield, the bill's sponsor, says "homosexuals don't naturally reproduce" and has argued families should decide when its appropriate to talk with their children about homosexuality.
But gay rights activists are blasting the legislation, which passed 6-3, as a form of discrimination.
I think this article is biased to the left because what it says the bill says is not what the bill says and they're making it look worse. They misrepresent the bill along side some quote mine from the sponsor that doesn't really have anything to do with the bill. The bill is an amendment to:
quote:
2010 Tennessee Code
Title 49 - Education
Chapter 6 - Elementary and Secondary Education
Part 10 - Curriculum Generally
49-6-1005 - Sex education.
To add an additional section that says:
quote:
SECTION 1. Tennessee Code Annotated, Section 49-6-1005, is amended by adding the following as new subsection (c) and by relettering the existing subsection (c) accordingly:
(c)
(1) The general assembly recognizes the sensitivity of particular subjects that are best explained and discussed in the home. Human sexuality is a complex subject with societal, scientific, psychological, and historical implications; those implications are best understood by children with sufficient maturity to grasp their complexity.
(2) Notwithstanding any other law to the contrary, no public elementary or middle school shall provide any instruction or material that discusses sexual orientation other than heterosexuality.
The linked article has mislead the OP to complain about these things:
(1) Teachers will be forbidden to counsel suicidal gay kids because they are forbidden to mention anything gay related.
(2) All literature having any mention of homosexuality will be thrown out.
(3) In history class, teachers will not be able to teach that gay people were victims of the holocaust and other genocidal acts in history.
From Message 1.
But none of that is remotely possible from the passing of this bill. This law only pertains to sexual education class.
This article, and its liberal bias, has tricked the poster into thinking the bill was completely terrible and one of the "most evil" things from the Right.

Re: Don't Say Gay Bill - article showing left bias
Running here to hide doesn't change the fact that I gave you a link to the interview.
Excuse me!? I posted this here two days ago and you gave me that link yesterday. Again, there's no need to vilify me. Stoppit!

The topic here is on left-bias in the media. Discussions about the bill, itself, should go in the other thread, Another example of right wing evil.
Does the article accurately represent the bill? Does the article have a left-bias?
My position is no and yes, respectively, and has been expounded in Message 142.
Aaannnd... Go!
