John Cloud: Obama Basher, Ann Coulter Fan

1:22 pm EST December 21st, 2008 | Media | 6 Comments

Time Magazine’s John Cloud has decided to attack Obama over the Rick Warren thing by calling the president-elect a “bigot”. What’s intriguing is that John Cloud can call Obama a name like that but a few years ago spent 6,000 words gushing effusively over an actual bigot, Ann Coulter, in a cover profile for Time.

And people wonder why we lose trust in the media every day.

    Don’t trust the media, trust in God.

    Here’s a recent example of his holiness working his special brand of magic in regards to helping me personally advance my cause against the torture of toddler’s testicles.

    I didn’t sign up for the job, but I can’t ignore ‘the calling’ anymore than Warren can avoid his homo bashing.

    ‘Lets bring the country together’ doesn’t sound so great when those other people start showing up.”

    John cloud is a tool and a right -wing propagandist – pity many are falling for his divisive tactics-

    Honestly, I don’t know if anyone is a bigot, though I would put a sawbuck down that Obama won’t move on DADT before 2010 beyond appointing a “commission” to make “recommendations”, and he won’t move against officers in the military who engage in anti-gay witch hunts, which violates DADT.

    I’m not sure if that’s political expediency or bigotry, though the fact that he’s yet to appoint an openly gay person to a position in cabinet or staff is troubling.

    That being said, frequently you see people who have a tin ear on civil rights issues until it’s their ox being gored, and this is what we are seeing from Cloud.

    As to the actual decision on Warren, I will paraphrase Tallyrand, it is worse than wrong, it is a mistake.

    Huh. Can anyone tell me the difference between the whining of this openly gay moron of the “left” and the self-deluding bullshit of all those closeted Republicans?

    =======================================
    =
    = THE LIBERAL DEFINITION OF A BIGOT
    =
    = ANYONE WHO DOES NOT LOCKSTEP INTO THE LIBERAL AGENDA
    =
    ========================================
    The Liberal agenda is to use their own hate speech by throwing insults to those who don’t subscribe to their agenda, demonstrating their own hypocricy – as John Cloud of Time “magazine” demonstrates.

    This problem should be easy for Obama – he’s a Christian impostor. Considering how much he has strayed from the teaching in the Bible, he fits the description provided by the apostle Paul in his second letter to Timothy. Paul says “men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear.” Obama’s position on abortion, homosexuality and other issues (and his own mocking of the Bible), fits the description. And Pauls calls these people “evil men” and “impostors”
