Via Breitbart (with video).
At 3:35pm ET on today's CNN Newsroom (10/9/07), the hosts were reading viewer e-mails. Here's what they read from a "Chuck" in Las Vegas, Nevada (emphasis mine):
After all these years of sex and money scandals, to say nothing of the born-again idiot in the White House, one might reasonably expect that by now the Christians would have lost some of their smug superiority over the rest of us. Dear Jesus, save us from your followers!
A couple moments after the letter was read, both hosts appeared to momentarily show slight mischievous grins.
Good ... grief.

Apparently CNN has no
October 9, 2007 - 18:13 ET by Chris NormanApparently CNN has no standards regarding which e-mails they'll read, just as long as they're hateful towards President Bush...
More guilt...no glory
October 9, 2007 - 18:39 ET by acumenOh, it was a hit on Bush!
Putting together "the idiot in the white house", "smug superiority" and "Dear Jesus, save us from your followers" I assumed the email was a toss-up between referring to I've-lusted-in-my-heart Carter and ten-pound-bible-toting Clinton. My mistake...but it seemed like a natural assumption.

October 9, 2007 - 18:07 ET by jezebellei never watch CNN but was at the bank this afternoon and was reading the emails on thier tv. Absolutley NO bias whatsoever.(much much sarcasm in that statement) I was making all sorts of sighs and gasps and muttering angrily to myself then realized i was in a public place that chose to put CNN on so not many people would commiserate with me.
Well, I look at it this way...

Emails
October 9, 2007 - 18:35 ET by mgerardnBill O'Reilly never reads emails that attack Democratic Politicians - he's fair and balanced -
Isn't your shift over yet?
October 9, 2007 - 18:38 ET by Chris NormanIsn't your shift over yet?
A news network that reads emails attacking politicians?
October 9, 2007 - 18:44 ET by mgerardnI'm glad Fox news doesn't do that - still classic was Gretchen Carlson's comment today that Chris Matthews' anti-Bush remarks were BLASPHEMOUS!!!
Now, is your shift over?

October 9, 2007 - 19:02 ET by stratmanCarlson was using the word correctly in reply to an insult applied to an entire group which included her.
Why are you making something into that which it was not intended?

Exactly what are you inferrring about Carlson's commentary?
Killing them with kindness isn't working. Time to get scrappy with the Donkeys.
Carlson's commentary

October 9, 2007 - 19:51 ET by stratmanI don't recall Carlson referencing George Bush in that manner during her commentary.
When did she say this previously?
10/9 Fox & Friends
October 9, 2007 - 19:57 ET by mgerardnAgain, we receive our talking points from our own heads, and also, Chris Matthews did not say those blasphemous comments on his show; he said them at a public event, where maybe he felt that nobody else was listening.....
Talking points from our own heads...priceless!!
Good point. A comment made
October 9, 2007 - 20:40 ET by Roger the ShrubberGood point. A comment made at a public event has very little chance of bineg "listened to". You make perfect sense.
A comment made today is
October 9, 2007 - 20:38 ET by Roger the ShrubberA comment made today is considered a "classic"?
Interesting use of language from someone who just ridiculed a news bimbette's interesting use of language.
Chris Norman, meet Chris Mathews.

Chris,
October 9, 2007 - 19:18 ET by Dave RLOL-Well, I encountered him in a thread about CM dropping quotes that, if they were actually uttered by CM, would be the only non-biased comments he ever made.
So, I added 2 + 2.
Heck, maybe I came up with 3.5.
Damn HP & Reverse Polish Notation!

How many more CM quotes do you need
October 9, 2007 - 19:19 ET by mgerardnSince you're sure those are the only non-biased quotes he's ever made, you'll be unglued if I give you one or two more - just give me a number and I'll produce - let's be clear - he doesn't like George W Bush, and he wants to see Giulani or McCain as president - BTW, I loved the debate tonite, those guys distancing from GW.
Dave, It does make one
October 9, 2007 - 19:22 ET by Chris NormanDave, It does make one wonder. If the head of Whole Foods can go on and talk up his company like he was someone else, then why not? However, I'm thinking that Chris Matthews couldn't actually shut up long enough to type - unless he has a transcriber for his keyboard and then his comments would run to forty inches of screen space and be dripping with...
...and be dripping
October 9, 2007 - 19:25 ET by Dave R...and be dripping with...
Yeah, I know. Spittle. LOL.

At least O'Reilly reads
October 9, 2007 - 18:48 ET by c5thenAt least O'Reilly reads e-mals and viewer comments that are from all sides of the issue.
When was the last time that CNN or MSNBC ran any e-mails that were approving of the current administration?

October 9, 2007 - 18:50 ET by motherbeltc5, O'Reilly actually reads emails that attack HIM.
If CNN reads an anti-bush email
October 9, 2007 - 18:59 ET by mgerardn...then ALL of their emails must be anti-bush. I get it. What a theory. And if I point out 1, the response is, okay, 1 out of a million, and if I point out 10, the response is, still, it's mainly anti-republican, and then if it's 1000, you scream CNN is liberal.

I really do hope his shift as resident troll here is ending soon. He's coming unhinged. He's like a virus, spreading over the screen.
Just Shiftless Chris?
October 9, 2007 - 19:26 ET by acumenThen our defender of CNN would revert back to just being shiftless Chris.
I particularly enjoyed the outrage at CNN being considered liberal. What a trooper...

October 9, 2007 - 19:38 ET by ckc1227Okay, you win. CNN isn't liberal, the sky isn't blue, and Keith Olberman is pro-Bush.
emails that approve of the current administration
October 9, 2007 - 19:00 ET by mgerardnthere are people out there who approve of the current administration?
Yes, more people approve of
October 9, 2007 - 20:15 ET by HypocriteHaterYes, but sorry to say, more people approve of the administration than approve of the democrat lead congress.
Right wingers - swing and a miss...
October 9, 2007 - 20:17 ET by mgerardnThe reason the Congressional approval rating is so low is that the Democrats are pissed that the Democratic congress isn't standing up to Bozo the Bush, it always goes back to GW.
BOZO RULES!!
October 9, 2007 - 20:35 ET by HypocriteHaterBOZO RULES!!
So, you agree that the
October 9, 2007 - 20:52 ET by Roger the ShrubberSo, you agree that the Democrat(ic)s in Congress are impotent, incapable of accomplishing anything bigger than naming some post offices? Your sissy Democrat(ic)s can't stand up to Chimpy McHitler? Talk about losers. What kind of douchebags follow losers like that? Why, douchbags like you.
And part of the reason
October 10, 2007 - 08:44 ET by SmartypantsAnd part of the reason Bush's approval ratings are so low is that he has not stood up to Democrats like a true conservative. You see, that goes both ways. Not everyone who disapproves with Bush agrees with Democrats.

October 9, 2007 - 18:49 ET by motherbeltAh, good old CNN.....were these emails they read just "out of the blue" or connected to a story they were doing?
At any rate, they never miss a chance to do a little Christian-bashing, even if it has to be second-hand.
