CNN’s Loesch tells ‘foreigner’ Bashir to ‘go back to his own country’

Dana Loesch is apparently furious at MSNBC’s Martin Bashir. Yesterday, Bashir called former Massachusetts Governor and presumptive Republican candidate for president Mitt Romney a liar and said that by his own faith’s tenets, he’s going to hell for what he said about President Obama and the economy.

That was apparently more than Loesch, a CNN contributor, erstwhile Andrew Breitbart protege and supporter of corpse desecration could stomach hearing about her party’s nominee. In a sputtering freakout rant from Thursday’s edition of “The Dana Show,” she called Bashir “an unintelligent hack” and “a foreigner” who isn’t qualified to cover U.S. politics.

“I don’t want to hear a foreigner talking about media in this country, or politics in this country.” she said, “You don’t understand it.” She urged the award-winning journalist to go back to “his own country” and report on British politics and celebrities, “and be famous off of that.”

3. another of ms loeschs' compassionate stories....

CNN contributor Dana Loesch: Women ‘get raped’ for supporting the left

CNN contributor and blogger Dana Loesch said Monday at the Tea Party Tax Day rally in Chicago that women “get raped” for supporting liberals and progressives like the “Occupy Wall Street” movement.

“What did women receive for supporting the left?” she asked the crowd. “You’ve seen it here with your Occupy movement, haven’t you? They get raped.”

“This man on my shirt had a message that I think needs to be reiterated since it keeps happening,” Loesch said, wearing a shirt picturing the late Andrew Breitbart. “Stop raping people! Behave yourselves!”

At the Conservative Political Action Conference in February, Breitbart angrily confronted a group of “Occupy” protesters. He called them “freaks and animals,” and told them to “stop raping people.”

16. He delivers one of the most consistently solid shows on MSNBC.

I've gotten to the point where I turn off Andrea Mitchell...it's just too much, too many shows where she keeps flogging Ann Romney's MommyGate and the like. The others give a lot of time to right-wing pundits like SE Cupp (Alex Wagner has her on ALL THE TIME). But Bashir is consistently progressive. If you tune in you won't be disappointed.

My fave MSNBC daytime person by a mile.

During that testy interview a few weeks ago, 'Toure' told him he didn't understand US media or culture because he's British. At least he stopped short of telling him to go back home.

13. I watched Bashir and he was dealing the Morman faith and lies

Then he detailed Rmoney's lies.

Why do these idiots hate facts. If his religion sees LIARS are scumbags who are heading for some hellhouse then Rmoney is going there according to his own religion.

Why is she attacking Bashir. I did laugh but that's because I'm an atheist with a sense of humor.

19. Martin is on the road to citizenship. He is here legally and has his green card. He has as much

right to be here than we do. That attitude she has about foreign reporters is a joke. Gosh doesn't CNN realize that she is so stupid and it reflects on them.

21. As I said the other day in my blog...

Obviously Loesch doesn't like foreign journalists reporting on certain topics, like ohhhh I don't know. Like the truth maybe? Sometimes I actually rely more on the foreign press to tell me what is going on in my own country, because most of our own press/media is corporate owned. Not saying that its not the same overseas, but at least their coverage is brutally honest (in most cases). Give Loesch the sack so she can go ahead and move on over to Faux News where we all know she wants to be.

31. “and be famous off of that.”

This person is supposed to be a journalist? Did she even pass Freshman Composition? Talk about your "unintelligent hacks."

(Sorry. I know her grammar isn't the worst aspect of this rant. But I just can't stand "off of.")

As I mentioned in one of my replies above, on a very recent show (within the last 30 days) he made a comment along the lines of "I'm not yet a citizen of this country."
