Oh, sure, it was a figurative sucker punch, but it left poor Juan’s head spnning nonetheless. The best part is the stunned look on Williams’ face at the very end of the clip.
Oh, sure, it was a figurative sucker punch, but it left poor Juan’s head spnning nonetheless.
Hannity reeled off a list of Eric Cantor’s outrageous comments about raising the debt ceiling and asked for William’s response. When Juan finished ripping Cantor, Hannity unleashed the sucker punch and told him that the comments all came from Senator Barack Obama back in 2006, not Eric Cantor in 2011.
The best part is the stunned look on Williams’ face at the very end of the clip.
We want to like Juan Williams. We really do. There are times when he seems like a nice guy, sometimes even a rational liberal. But…
We want to like Juan Williams. We really do. There are times when he seems like a nice guy, sometimes even a rational liberal.
Then there are other times – like Sunday morning on Fox News Sunday – when he veers so far to the lunatic left that we can only shake our heads in amazement.
Here’s Juan the lunatic liberal sounding as if he’s auditioning to get his old NPR gig back again:
“Let me finish this point. So what if we got some information by means of torturing people. As President Obama and we heard this morning from Tom Donilon, it’s not in our values to pull out people’s teeth and eyeballs and secondly, you know, we could get that information in other ways.”
Juan apparently has some inside information that Amnesty International hasn’t yet gotten its hands on. Information that says we now extract prisoners’ teeth and eyeballs while extracting information.
Keep this up, Juan, and Fox will be forced to move you from the Sunday morning news show to the Saturday morning cartoon show.
One person probably found James O’Keefe’s NPR sting video even more remarkable than everyone else – former NPR political analyst Juan Williams.
One person probably found James O’Keefe’s NPR sting video even more remarkable than everyone else – former NPR political analyst Juan Williams.
The video shows NPR senior executive Ron Schiller denigrating everyone who’s anyone – the Tea Party, Jews and even Williams. Williams, who was unfairly fired (even according to disgraced NPR President Vivian Schiller), offered up this opinion.
“I think it is a look inside what NPR executives really think and for me this is a revelation in the sense that here they are saying exactly how they view the world,” Williams commented. “And what’s incredible to me is here they are doing business with people who identify themselves of the Muslim Brotherhood.”
Fine, Juan. Go ahead and pick on NPR all you want, but at least they won’t do business with those Tea Party guys. Because unlike the Muslim Brotherhood, they’re racists.
As far as liberals are concerned, this is bad. This is real bad. This is worse than if they’d found photos of Juan in compromising positions with farm animals. Juan Williams’ son is a Republican.
As far as liberals are concerned, this is bad. This is real bad. This is worse than if they’d found photos of Juan in compromising positions with farm animals. Worse than if they’d found him posing shirtless on Craig’s List. Worse than … worse than … well, worse than almost anything.
Tony Williams, son of Fox News' Juan Williams and (gasp) Republican
Juan Williams’ son is a Republican.
We don’t know how we missed this one. Young Tony ran for, but lost his bid for the Washington, DC city council back in 2006. But somehow this story slipped right by us.
Here’s how the National Black Republican Association describes the liberal heartache that is young Tony Williams:
Juan Williams who is a liberal intellect and political commentator for NPR and Fox News has a son, Tony Williams, who is a Republican and running for the Washington, DC Ward 6 City Council Seat.
Tony grew up in Washington, DC, and his parents taught him, by example, that America is the land of opportunity and, with hard work, he could accomplish anything.
After living the principles of the Republican Party and becoming successful himself, Tony rejected the socialist policies of the Democrat Party and became a Republican. Tony’s goal as a politician is to help the children of DC get out of poverty and on the on the road to prosperity.
Good lord, Tony even spent one summer interning in Strom Thurmond’s office and then worked as a speechwriter for former Senator Norm Coleman.
Far as liberals are concerned, the only thing that could make this situation worse is if Tony follows his father’s footsteps and goes to work at Fox.
House Republicans announced Wednesday they plan to force a floor vote on defunding NPR in response to the firing of analyst Juan Williams last month.
NPR claims tax dollars provide a mere 1% of its budget despite other analyses that say it might be as much as 25%.
You’ll soon be able to judge which number is closer to the truth based on the volume of the squeals emanating from Congress. The louder the squeals, the higher the percentage.
It's about time: Republicans are taking aim at the "P" in NRP
TheHill.com has the news that has NPR quivering with fear:
House Republicans announced Wednesday they plan to force a floor vote on defunding NPR in response to the firing of analyst Juan Williams last month.
House GOP Whip Eric Cantor (Va.) and Rep. Doug Lamborn (Colo.) said that cutting funds to the publicly subsidized news organization was the winner of the conference’s weekly “YouCut” contest, in which the public votes online on spending items they want eliminated.
“When NPR executives made the decision to unfairly terminate Juan Williams and to then disparage him afterwards, the bias of their organization was exposed,” the two Republicans said in a statement. “Make no mistake, it is not the role of government to tell news organizations how to operate. What is avoidable, however, is providing taxpayer funds to news organizations that promote a partisan point of view. Eliminating taxpayer funding for NPR is precisely the kind of commonsense cut that we have to begin making if we want to fundamentally alter the way business is conducted in Washington.”
Oh, wait. There’s another sound. If we’re not mistaken, this one is Juan Williams laughing his ass off.
Spreading his money around like a pro athlete at a strip club, George “Sugar Daddy” Soros wrote checks to NPR – who conveniently fired Juan Williams within two days of receiving their Soros’ pay off.

Spreading money around left wing news organizations like a pro athlete at a strip club
Fox News reported that, “In a statement obtained by The Caucus, (Media Matters) says it plans to use the money to intensify its efforts to hold the Fox host Glenn Beck and others on the cable news channel accountable for their reporting.”
Well, if by holding them “accountable for their reporting” Media Matters means to launch a boycott aimed at shutting down free speech in general and Fox news specifically, then yes, they are trying to hold Glenn Beck accountable.
The statement continues, “Fox has transformed itself into a 24-7 G.O.P. attack machine, dividing Americans through fear-mongering and falsehoods and undermining the legitimacy of our government for partisan political ends.”
Coincidentally, Media Matters exists solely as a left-wing attack machine created to attack Fox 24-7 through fear-mongering and falsehoods for partisan political ends. But that was not noted in the story.
Fox also reported that, “Mr. Soros, a billionaire who has a history of supporting liberal politicians and causes, accused Fox News hosts of ‘incendiary rhetoric’ and said he hoped that his money would be used ‘in an effort to more widely publicize the challenge Fox News poses to civil and informed discourse in our democracy.’”
What Mr. Soros neglected to say was that while he is opposed to “right wing” incendiary rhetoric, incindiary rhetoric from the left is highly encouraged. Anyone who’s ever visited Media Matters knows that its “reporters” (or “fellows,” as they like to call them) don’t actually report, but instead search through the media much like the little old lady searching for dirty words, looking for something – anything, really – that can be twisted and distorted to support their left wing world view.
Media Matters has always been a joke. But by taking Soros’ cash, it’s become the old joke whose punch line is, “We’ve already determined what you are. Now we’re just negotiating the price.”
Well, Juan Williams had an interesting 24 hours, didn’t he? First he was fired over the phone by NPR for comments he made on O’Reilly’s Fox TV show. Then he was immediately given a new $2 million contract by Fox.

His new millions not withstanding, Juan is pissed. And you can’t blame the guy.
As O’Reilly says on this clip, “NPR has now devolved into a totalitarian outfit functioning as an arm of the far left. As a corporation, has a right to do what it wants, but it does not have a right to any of our tax dollars. NPR will rue the day. Congress is going to defund NPR. We are not letting it go.“
You know that anti-ObamaCare vote in Missouri last week? The one that got 71% of the vote? Meaningless, according to Fox News’ Juan Williams, because those who voted didn’t reflect an accurate sampling of Missouri’s ethic mix.

“As far as the Missouri vote, you get 70 percent inside an echo chamber of older white people, no not in St. Louis not in Kansas City, saying, ‘Oh yeah, we don’t like a requirement that everybody has to have healthcare even though the hospitals in Missouri say it’s gonna drive up our costs.’”
On a similar note, the results of last night’s Dodgers game didn’t count because the team’s roster doesn’t include enough black guys. And don’t bother paying the bills you got in the mail today. The post office doesn’t have enough Hispanics. And while we’re at it, let’s wipe the Renaissance out of the history books. Too many white guys.
Juan Williams sees Obama’s dropping poll numbers as a repudiation of Republicans.
Uh-oh. A new ABC/Washington Post poll says that 57% of American adults answered “Some” or “None” when asked how much confidence they had that Barack Obama would make the right decisions for the nation’s future.
Now that might sound bad to us. It might even sound bad to you. But that Juan Williams, he’s a glass half full kind of guy. He sees this poll as a repudiation of Republicans, too.
Really? Well, the Presidential election is still two-and-a-half years away. Maybe Obama will be able to turn on the charm, mouth those platitudes again and win re-election. But right now, Juan Williams prediction sounds a bit…shall we say…crazy.

Juan Williams and Reverend Ken Hutcherson, a former NFL player and long-time friend of that raaaaacist Rush Limbaugh put the entire Limbaugh-NFL fiasco in perspective.

One really interesting point of discussion is that Demaurice Smith, head of the NFL players union who denounced Rush, was a member of Obama’s transition team and formerly worked for Attorney General Eric Holder.
Make no mistake about it, Juan Williams is no one’s “house negro.” But he is Fox News’ house liberal.
NPR is supposed to stand for National Public Radio. But based on their latest flap with liberal commentator Juan Williams, the initials seem to stand for No Public Relations.
“Last year,” said Alicia Shepard, an NPR ombudsman, “378 listeners emailed me complaints and frustrations about things Williams said on Fox. The listener themes are similar: Williams ‘dishonors NPR.’ He’s an ‘embarrassment to NPR.’ NPR should severe their relationship with him.’”
Ellen Weiss, Vice President of News at NPR, is so concerned about it that she “has asked Williams to ask that Fox remove his NPR identification whenever he is on O’Reilly.”
All this simply because Williams occasionally deviates from the officially-scripted leftwing line.
In other news, NPR reported that 647 listeners complained that Lenin was too conservative, Marx was a rightwing lackey, and Mao was a fascist. All three have now asked O’Reilly to stop identifying them as communists.
