The famous and legendary "tollerance" of the left and how "big" their tent is. See how Shuster accepts those with views that are different from his own? See how he opens his arms and embraces the diversity of views? He would never denigrate and slander people just because he doesn't agree with their viewpoints, would he?

The day that "politician" became a career choice is the day we started losing the Republic. Let's get it back! Alan Keyes '08. RenewAmerica.us

Just when we start hearing good things about Morning Joe, they go and say something stupid like that.

Joe will have Shuster to thank when his fledgling audience starts disappearing.

David Shuster is an anti-evangelical bigot...and to the detriment of this sanctimonious creep's bile he adds nothing of value except that which is mean, cheap, flacid, and impotent.

If anything, he has proven beyond a shadow of doubt that as far as is journalism goes, he as all the brains of a flea and the balls of a moth.

Liberal: a power worshipper without power. George Orwell

For a secularist to opine on Christianity is like a a kindergarten child explaining the Theory of Relativity. If one thing has become a clear, defensible fact, it is that the elites do not understand a thing about evangelicals.

Every civilization that has outgrown its spiritual foundation has failed, so as we move to the historical phase in which those who believe in God are routinely diminished and ridiculed, there is no surer sign of the decline of the west.

It is a strange world in which the secularists defend Islam while destroying Christianity, but if you have studied history, it is a familiar scenario. In short, the west is dying, with political correctness as the facilitator and secularist pundits and intellectulas as the ringmasters.

We have been sold out, fooled, and damaged as a people because we did not have the guts to stand up to the Republicrats when they went on their free-trade, sell America first binge. Because we were cowards, now the elites run roughshod over our most precious beliefs, provoking us as they do. They do not run over Islam because Islam has protected itself at the cost of blood and courage.

When will we gather all 160 million Christians (or more) in this country and march on Washington?  One non-violent protest march of all Christians in America on Washington would protect us for a hundred years and silence our critics.

That is what it will take--do we have the courage to pull it off?

This is dispicable, immature, bigoted, anti Christian rhetoric.  Let me take a stab at a theory and welcome comments.

I think most Baby Boomers have matured, having children, jobs and understanding that we are lucky and that gubment is largely and thankfully irrelevant. They understand personal responsibility = personal freedom & the most corrosive element to life is governement dependence and the only thing that will destroy this democracy is if gubment gets too big. They largely believe in God and family.

And then you have those BBs who haven't grown up or are sad marxists. They are in hollywood, city councils in SFO, and in the media (how bad are Diane Sawyer and Robin Roberts). These adolescent BBs in the media are now controlling (Bill Keller, "pinch") the agenda and these people: are 1. seperated from reality (pinch was handed the job - his father must be so proud to see the rapid decline of the grey lady ) 2. do not want to grow up. 3. sycophants for hollywood and famous (having losers, and I mean BIG L, like David Crosby on Chrissy mathews).

This is their last gasp - Clintons/Obama/Sharpton/Jackson/Alcie H/Striesand/Kucinich/Keller/Sulzberger/Schummer/Harry Reid/Polosi at destroying america and designing their vision of communism.

If we get by this election and get these weasles in the fossil media to retire, we will escape the zennith of the radical left's power, exerted by ersatz white guilt from race hustlers and weak, co-dependent liberals, misguided and otherwise stupid (remember educated does NOT mean smart) college professors and group think fossil media. 

We can give our children a better US if we vote with our principle's and not our emotions.

Hey Mark, I've read what Shuster said over and over again, but I think you need to interpret what he was saying in the proper context: that the evangelicals or "Christian fundamentalists" that support Republicans like President Bush and perhaps Mitt Romney on the basis of tolerance are the same people who are silent and don't speak against the immorality of torture and the questionable legailty of what we as a country do at Gitmo. He was speaking more to the (alleged) hypocrisy of the religious right than to anything that could be interpreted as bigotry.

Having said that, I think Shuster was wrong to say that Romney was trying to appeal to just Christian fundamentalists in the Republican Party. I think people of all faiths (including myself, raised as a Catholic), no matter their politicial affiliations are interested in what he has to say, especially in the primary states.

Yes, evangelicals in the Republican party will pay close attention to what he has to say, but Romney's speech yesterday was meant to be so broadly based that it could have been given in a primary OR a general election.

Remember, JFK's "Catholic" speech happened in 1960 (during the general election). So while people smarter than David Shuster know that politically active Evangelical Christians may be his biggest target audience, it's not accurate to say that's ALL he was appealing to. Bigotry? No. Ignorance? Yes.

Imagine this: Scarborough's contract expires. MSNBC gets rid of him and the new show is "Morning Talk with Mika and David"...

From his past pronouncements, Schuster should be designated The Village Idiot. I don’t think he, or those of his ilk, realize who they’re dealing with.

Evangelical Christians make up much of American society, and because of the anti-Christian drumbeat that has gone on for years, they have said ‘enough is enough’ and are now becoming a force to be reckoned with.

This, obviously, is scaring those who have been demeaning religion and are now finding it necessary to intensify their bigoted rhetoric, thinking, I assume, that it will make them go away.

Today, the bigoted rhetoric is overwhelming especially toward the current Republican candidates for president as they outwardly profess their religious belief. This is an abomination as the bigots see it.

But,  as I see it, the bigots are having their ‘last hurrah’.   

Although it may not occur this election cycle, the religious will have the final say as they start to kick out of office those who have so despised them over so many years.

And those who are sent packing will wonder what happened as they refuse to admit that they, themselves, were responsible for their own demise.

To put the religious in a Star Wars term: The Force Is Now With Them.

I pity Shuster and those like him, they are so stupid and they don't even know it. I have read the last chapter...and guess what, we win.

The dude's a schmuck. I hate him almost as bad as I hate Olbermann.

I will never watse my time watching or hearing Shuster--it has become more clear than ever there are so many idiots being broadcasted, there is little point in tuning in to the news. 

Liberalism is a convenient lie.

...why, yes, I do believe it was Jesus: "...they hated Me before they hated you."

Scripture also says: "Every knee shall bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord."

These liberals are gonna need their kneepads.
