Paula Zahn (CNN) upset about political comments at Loretta King's funeral

[Julius Civitatus]

She was trashing the political commenter's, and mentioned they turned the funeral into the first step in the electoral campaign.

Then she showed the controversial words of Rev. Joseph Lowery about weapons of mass destruction....

and Paula Zahn literally said: "EEEEEWWWWW!!!!" right after the video clip.

What a disgusting tool!

[hang a left]

1. We are so fucked. nt

[LSparkle]

2. She's POPPY'S tool ...

Always gets the "exclusive" whenever that doddering old fool decides to jump out of a plane to celebrate his birthday or insert himself into the news cycle in some way.

[Julius Civitatus]

7. She literally said "Eeeeewwww!" to Lowery's comments

It was revolting, really, a TV moment for the ages. Hope Crooks and Liars got it.

[LSparkle]

19. She and Katie Couric make a mockery of the term "newswoman"

Newswomen don't editorialize (and especially not in Valleygirlspeak!)

[JuniperLea]

36. Perfect rebuttal!

You are so right! Can you see Walter Cronkite editorializing? Or saying "EW"?


They have no class, no brains and no respect for the job they hold.

[fujiyama]

44. Both are a disgrace

PERIOD.

They are both so stupid. All they are fit for is hosting a worthless gossip show.

[tom_paine]

31. I'd say you had to be exaggerating, but unfortunately I am all to familiar

with the Grotesque Bushevik Media Creature, Fatuousicus Toadyius to question that it happened.

Free America fell so far, so fast...I sometimes wonder if it was real or just a dream.

[Cassandra]

22. He likes her legs.

[MichiganVote]

3. Paula Zahn of the politically correct world of blonde zombies

[punpirate]

4. But, more importantly...

... did she pee her pants?

[robbedvoter]

5. "Eeeew?" Now, THAT's class!

[Pathwalker]

6. Where do all these white people get off, acting as if

they have ANY right to tell people what they can say at Mrs. king's funeral???
Who do they think they are - the plantation owners???? That's how they're acting!!!!

[The Backlash Cometh]

20. This is what happens when people commute from their gated

communities straight to their assigned parking spots without taking detours.

[yardwork]

39. My thoughts exactly.

[proud patriot]

8. No Paula , Bush made it political by attending

[Jayhawk Lib]

43. Lets face it..

We would have bitch slapped him if he had not attended. I think he should have attended and he did. That is only one of very few things that he has done right in his administration.

[Zen Democrat]

63. He didn't WANT to go. He went because Clinton and Carter did.

He had to gather up daddy and go to Atlanta to try to get a little bit of that Martin Luther King magic to rub off on him.

But it didn't work because it was too little, too late. Lowery said it best when he said "Presidents and governors are here today to mourn and praise, but tomorrow morning will the words turn into deeds that meet needs?" In other words, talk is cheap, George.

Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton could speak of their personal relationships with the King family. George & Son could only speak in lofty platitudes (Son) and flippant humor (Poppy).

By the way, I loved it when Clinton referred to GHWB as "one of the frozen chosen". And Poppy asked for it with his comments comparing the New Birth church to his conservative Episcopal parish in Houston.

[0007]

9. They don't get any more disgusting than Paula Zahn in pimping

for the the biggest whore in U.S. history.

[ashling]

10. The GOP whiners will call for equal time

just like they did after PWs memorial

[leftchick]

11. she sucks poopy's dick

the little shrivled thing that is left of it. :puke:

[bread_and_roses]

12. What better place to speak truth to power than CSK's funeral?

I think she would approve. All I want to know was if the illegitimate puppet was still among the attendees - I do so hope so.

[LSparkle]

24. I'd like to ask the King children if she would have approved of him

even being there. Who made up the guest list? They may have been under pressure to have him come if they invited Clinton and Carter -- Coretta might not have been amused by his prescence.

[Bozita]

65. imho, he's a gatecrasher! -- He snuck in, listened in, and got offended?

One of the very few times where Bush appeared with even one dissenter.

One UK paper mentions "squirming" in its headline.

[The Backlash Cometh]

13. I'm picturing her with white lipstick when she says that.

And a QT tan.

[Catshrink]

14. I ignore Fluffy -- and the rest of CNN.

When they hired Bill Bennett I was done.

[sasha031]

15. MSM are all doing this

they shouln't have come if they are so faint hearted, of course it would never occur to them to talk about this...

29. First Mrs. Scalito and now Pissypants and Pickles ...

These Regressives must REALLY care what the Big Bad Democrats think of them if they get so worked up over not being welcomed with open arms and actually having to take some CRITICISM ...

[Boredtodeath]

16. It's CORETTA, not Loretta

Please change the title of your post (edit).

Let us remember her properly.

[HeeBGBz]

25. Wow 16 posts before anyone noticed that?

Was gonna add my 2 cents, but you got it done.

[Blue Belle]

53. I was going to say something...

But I wanted to read the entire post... I thought maybe Paula Zann called her that or something. I thought it might be a Hurricane Corrita (i.e. the Laura Bush Faux Pas) mishap.

[Julius Civitatus]

57. Misspelling, sorry for that

[mmonk]

17. What's gross are enemies

of constitutional checks and balances pretending to be journalists. That's a big eeeewwwww to you Zahn.

[ProSense]

18. Just another MBFB

Media Bimbos For Bush

[RandomKoolzip]

21. Who's "Loretta King?"

[LSparkle]

32. Wasn't she the actress in one of Ed Wood's movies ...

who bumped Dolores Fuller down to file clerk?

:evilgrin:

[RandomKoolzip]

40. She looked great in angora.

But that doesn't explain why Bush was at her funeral. What gives, George?

[thebigidea]

60. "Well, Eddie, what's my motivation?" "You're the file clerk."

the last time I saw Dolores Fuller, she was pretty dazed from a recent car accident. Her husband was in a neck brace and she was under some pretty strong painkillers but she still chattered about "clambake," elvis tunes, and Ed Wood. Hope she's better these days.

[bpilgrim]

23. She needs to get out more...

the M$M is in for a real shock because it is only going to get 'noisier'

FUCK BUSH!

peace

[liberal N proud]

26. It must be the talking point straight from KKKarl himself

Make sure you diss all the speakers at the funeral but the republicans and make them sound like they were talking politics.

This is all too orchestrated and calculated as usual.

[pretzel4gore]

27. anybody got bush's monkeyfart (zahn)'s email?

she's another hardcore seditionist lying to help bush using public's airwaves

[CatWoman]

35. here

50. Thanks CW, and please Duers, email the bush evik!

[kenny blankenship]

28. Normally I would agree that politics at a funeral is in very poor taste

But, I expect that the people involved in the eulogies today knew Mrs. King well enough to know that she'd prefer her funeral to be a political occasion of protest against the rule of a man who is doing so much to hurt the poor right now, and so much to destroy the vision of equality and harmony that she and MLK believed we had in us as a nation to achieve.

[JuniperLea]

41. My feelings exactly

Mrs. King lived her life upholding civil rights. I can't help but think she would have wanted this, knowing many eyes and ears would be on the service. I hope after a time the family will say something about it.

[Malikshah]

30. I'm upset Paula Zahn is allowed on the airwaves

to spew her master-race filth...but I don't go EWWWWWWWW.

[Canuckistanian]

33. Another proud member of BBFB

Blonde Bimbos for Bush.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

34. Like, eewww! That funeral was, like, SOOOO political!

Some people said, like, Bill Clinton gave the coolest speech. As if. Poppy Bush is like totally hot. He's the best! He actually said hi to me last week. He's like so totally awesome.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

37. This is such frigging bs. It was not politics! It was about what is Right!

One of the most firey commentaries was by Bernice King, the daughter of Corretta and Martin Luther King Jr. It seems that the media is avoiding her brilliant speech. It was against violence, against poverty, against discrimination, against war and militarism. It was a call to arms for people to mobilize and reawaken a movement to end all of what is wrong on our planet. To me this isn't politics. It has nothing to do with politics, as President Carter's mentioning the wiretapping and the Katrina victims wasn't politics, and Rev. Lowery's jab at Bush wasn't politics. Once again, it's about what is RIGHT!

[fearnobush]

38. Zahn can go Fuck herself with one of Bush's fake WMD's.

What a cunt.

[Disturbed]

46. Just another highly paid Presstitute....

for the Neo Fascists.

[Kahuna]

42. If Paula exclaims, "EEEWWWW" and nobody is watching..

did she still yell EEEEWWWW? :shrug:

[Blutodog]

45. Paula "Bu$hCo Whore" Zahnombie

Who cares what this RICH Bu$hCo whore has to say anymore. FUCK HER!!

[shance]

47. They wish to destroy the legends and truth. Their level of envy is

boundless.

Reading and observing all the feedback regarding this funeral reminds me of the barbaric behavior of the Republicans at Paul Wellstone's funeral.

Remember the narcissistic, breathtakingly heartless, selfish tantrums they engaged in?

Then again, two of those that the right wing extremists are responsible for their murders are Paul Wellstone and Martin Luther King.

Wellstone's murder hasn't been proven like King's was (the trial in the 90's in Tennessee confirmed the conspiracy), but it has become clear that there was a cover-up of Wellstone's plane crash. Why the cover-up?

This is of course why they are trying to deflect attention from the lights of the truth these people were. What's worse is it is like they are shooting MLK all over again by having the audacity of grandstanding CORETTAS funeral.

All because of their own jealousy,envy and of course there never-ending fear and hatred.

[murray hill farm]

48. I would say they can all kiss my ass..and coretta's too..

But that alone would be some blasphemy of what coretta and martin stood for..which appears to be above and beyond their comprehension. Let us get this straight...the civil rights movement and all that followed was political...and to give tribute to a woman who is the core of it all and not mention all the political shit she and her husband and her children and her race and all of went through just trying to speak the truth...and who cared enough to do it..would have been even a worse blastphamy...this would have been the worst insult to all that was the amazing person that she was to have chosen to be politically correct at her funeral. To debate this is obscene...and i personally feel obsene debating it.

[JerseygirlCT]

49. Oh brother. Those exact words on Hardball, too

They sure get those talking points out quickly to all the troops, don't they?

[Julius Civitatus]

58. They sure follow Rove's faxes to the last word

They don't even pretend anymore. It's disgusting.

[Marr]

51. I'm upset about political commentary in the "news".

[Warren DeMontague]

52. Geez. Far more worthy of commentary, I should think, is the fact that

it was the FBI's treatment of her late husband, among other things, that lead to the FISA law--- which Bush has broken, and thus committed an impeachable offense.

[Obamarama]

54. I'd so love to stuff a tampon down that whore's gullet to shut her UP.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

55. Paul Lasagna has always given me 'the willies'

There's something about that ultra plastic "cute news" and "suzie homemaker" image of hers that leads me to think there must be something very dark and disturbing that she's hiding. An ogre in her family, who boils children alive?

[kedrys]

56. I'm upset that Paula Zero is allowed to continue to pose as a reporter

So now we're all upset. :sarcasm:

[upi402]

59. Skeletor II

She and Ann Coultergeist should hook up.

and they're starving for truth.

66. I was thinking more of his disapproval ratings

I know what you're saying about the sound bites, and the die-hard believers
will love these sound bites..but others will blow it off as an unimportant
debate given the serious issues that are surfacing...
I still have faith in people to have "half a brain" (I hope)
