The not Mosque at not Ground Zero brain dead American idiot hatemonger protesters harass black guy who looks like a Muslim...but isn't. Black? Muslim? Same difference. Can you say "lynch mob"????



Black Man Accosted At 'Mosque' Protest (extensive video, Cenk is the ONLY one who tells you EVERYTHING the black man said in the conversation...):



Glenn Greenwald: Opponents of the Park51 Islamic community center held a rally yesterday in Lower Manhattan, and a 4-minute video, posted below, reveals the true sentiments behind this campaign. It has little to do with The Hallowed Ground of the World Trade Center -- that's just the pretext -- and everything to do with animosity toward Muslims.

Glenn Greenwald explains on the Dylan Ratigan Show:



Pap and Ed Schultz Expose Fox News' Mosque Funding &



The "right" = American Idiots:



Republican Ron Paul for the Mosque:


Ron Paul breaks with GOP on New York mosque: The opposition ‘is all about hate and Islamaphobia.’

Billionaire Koch family behind many rightwing "grassroots" projects:


Charles And David Koch Exposed For Insidious Role In Crafting The Modern Right

David H. Koch Charles are lifelong libertarians and have quietly given more than a hundred million dollars to right-wing causes.

Why do Americans only talk about rightwing talking points in the so-called "liberal media"? Everything from stoking up hatred towards Muslims, blacks, hispanics, women, Mosques, the unemployed, intellectuals, colleges and universities, welfare recipients...and ginning up support for tax cuts for the rich, raising the Social Secutiry retirement age, continuing the wars, continuing paying $2.5 BILLION a week taxpayer money for the wars. Who is on the so-called "liberal media"? Dick and Liz Cheney, Newt Gingrich, Sarah Palin, Rush Limbaugh, Bill O'Reilly and rightwing, GOP pundits. Here's why: rightwing billionaires have financed FOX "news", rightwing think tanks such as CATO Institute, pundits such as Rush Limbaugh, and have taken over what was the "liberal media"...all the while having their guys still call it the "liberal media" (see the Koch family story above, too):

The Republican Noise Machine

David Brock, the reformed conservative noise-maker, on how the Right has sabotaged journalism, democracy, and truth.

As a young journalist in the 1990s, David Brock was a key cog the Republican noise machine. Writing for the American Spectator, a conservative magazine funded by billionaire Richard Mellon Scaife, Brock gained fame for his attack pieces on Anita Hill and President Bill Clinton. Then, in 2002, Brock came clean. In his memoir, Blinded by the Right, Brock admitted that his work was based on lies and distortion, and part of a coordinated smear campaign funded by wealthy right wing groups to discredit Clinton and confuse the public.

Since then, Brock has continued to expose the conservative media onslaught. In his newest book, The Republican Noise Machine, Brock documents how right-wing groups pressure the media and spread misinformation to the public. It's easy to see how this is done.

Fringe conspiracies and stories will be kept alive by outlets like Rush Limbaugh, the Washington Times, and the Drudge Report, until they finally break into the mainstream media.

Media groups like Brent Bozell's Media Research Center have spent 30 years convincing the public that the media is, in fact, liberal. As Brock says, it's all a sham: "I have seen, and I know firsthand, indeed from my own pen, how the organized Right has sabotaged not only journalism but also democracy and truth."

  5. Just look at the last two topics they had the whole nation talking about: we went from hispanics/racial profiling to The Mosque at Ground Zero. They have the subjects all lined up for American Idiots to talk about. Remember we just spent all our time talking about Arizona racial profiling? Well, we went right to The Mosque at Ground Zero. And what was before that? Shirley Sherrod. Right?

  7. There is a distinct difference on how the major networks are corrupted and FOX "news" is corrupted: the major networks speak for the MIC (military industrial complex), the wealthy, and corporations. FOX "news" does that, AND is a GOP operation. They make up false GOP talking points and they filter into the other networks...like The Mosque at Ground Zero. FOX "news" is Karl Rove's launching pad.

  8. Watch how even Greenwald continues perpetuate the lie about who did 9/11. You can say anything you like to divide the population evenly, provided you ALWAYS say that Al Qaeda or Muslims did 9/11:

    http://firedoglake.com/2010/08/23/glenn-greenwald-and-dylan-ratigan-in-battle-of-wits-with-unarmed-cliff-may/

    As long as you play by these rules, you can continue to receive a pay check and be seen as relevant in the utterly controlled media. Were he to question whether ANY Muslims were involved in 9/11, he would vanish completely from the American consciousness overnight.
