A couple of weeks ago, we had white “progressives”, you know the type- enlightened, caring, and tolerant, of others with different views, calling for the cutting off of body parts and the lynching of Justice Clarence Thomas, who, as we all know, is black, or that he should be “sent back into the fields to work”, and also saying that Justice Alito should be hanged or “sent back to Sicily”-
Then earlier this week we had yet another compassionate lib call black conservative and possible 2012 GOP Presidential candidate Herman Cain “a black garbage pail kid” who “entertains and perform for their White Conservative masters”, and is “a monkey in the window”.
His rambling, racist statement was mostly incoherent gibberish, as if it was written by a third-grader, which most likely means he’ll soon have his own show on MSNBC.
And as usual, it drew the same response from the civil rights crowd such as the NAALCP, and civil rights activists frauds/shysters such as Je$$e Jack$on and Al $harpton, as it always does when it happens to a black conservative, which is to say none at all.
As we all now know, CBS News correspondent Lara Logan was brutally physically and sexually assaulted this week by a mob of muslim savages shouting “she’s a Jew, a Jew”, while she was covering the events in Egypt last week.
And in yet another show of liberal compassion, Nir Rosen, who has written for Time, Harper’s, The New Yorker, and the New York Times Magazine, referred to Logan as a “warmonger” and said that her being raped was “funny”.
Yeah, he apologized, then made more idiotic and disparaging comments about it, and apologized again, saying this time in his emailed apology that he really truly means it, before resigning from his position at NYU.
And we heard all the women’s rights groups and activists such as the NAG’s (National Association of Gals, as Rush calls them), I mean NOW, condemning both the assault by the muslim savages on Ms. Logan and the absurd remarks by Rosen, right? Wrong. Not a peep from any of them.
But we damn well know that if any of these comments had been made by Tea Party members or any conservative group or well-known person, the libs would be howling about how this proves we’re all racist, sexist, and bigoted homophobes, for days on end, and demanding that someone be fired.
Nir Rosen, U.S. journalist slams CBS’ Lara Logan on Twitter after sexual assault in Egypt, resigns
While the world reels in shock over CBS reporter Lara Logan’s sexual assault in Egypt, another American journalist is causing a different kind of outrage, calling Logan a “warmonger” who was simply trying to outdo Anderson Cooper.
Nir Rosen, an NYU fellow who has extensively covered the Iraq War, made the insensitive remarks during a Twitter rant on Tuesday. He has since resigned from the university’s Center on Law and Security.
“Lara Logan had to outdo Anderson,” Rosen tweeted, referring to the CNN correspondent, who was reportedly punched in the head multiple times while covering the recent demonstrations in Egypt.
Rosen went on, insisting it would be humorous if Anderson too had been sexually assaulted.
“Yes yes it’s wrong what happened to her. Of course. I don’t support that. But it would have been funny if it happened to Anderson too.”
From there, his posts only got worse.
The tweet, “Jesus Christ, at a moment when she is going to become a martyr and glorified we should at least remember her role as a major war monger,” was followed by, “Look, she was probably groped like thousands of other women.”
Last week, Logan, a “60 Minutes” correspondent, endured a “brutal and sustained sexual assault by a mob of men while covering the Egyptian uprising,” CBS News said on Tuesday. She was eventually saved by a group of women and about 20 Egyptian soldiers, the network reported.
The 39-year-old is now back in the U.S. and recovering. Sources told TMZ that Logan plans on going back to work within weeks, describing her as “unbelievably strong.”
Rosen, who has written for a number of prestigious publications, including Time, Harper’s, The New Yorker and the New York Times Magazine, later offered a half-hearted apology, after deleting many of his previous posts.
“Ah f–k it, I apologize for being insensitive, its always wrong, that’s obvious, but I’m rolling my eyes at all the attention she will get.”
Shortly after that, he offered half a dozen sincere condolences on Twitter.
“As someone who’s devoted his career to defending victims and supporting justice, I’m very ashamed for my insensitive and offensive comments,” he wrote, apologizing to Logan’s friends and family.
“I am deeply ashamed because they do not represent who i am, and i would like to convey my most heart felt apologies to Ms. Logan, her family, her friends, all women and too everyone I have hurt, angered and disappointed,” he added in an e-mail.
Rosen resigned from his fellowship from New York University’s Center on Law and Security on Wednesday, according to Karen J. Greenberg, the center’s executive director.
