3. WTF. Corporate TV at its worst. No wonder CNN are sinking in the ratings.
The slimballs attack on Grayson was pathetic.

5. Lunacy Unleashed
Did anyone notice how they censored the word "whore" but didn't bleep it out when Grayson said it?

And what is this BS of calling anybody on the left now a "wingnut?" Grayson has probably got one of the biggest balls in Washington to actually call it as he sees it, and these idiots in the MSM refer to him and is bluntly honest commentary as wingnuttery?

Well, there's your problem with the MSM in a nutshell. They need ratings, and they need to reign in those who are the most polarized for their advertising dollars.

Journalism died a long time ago. How sad and profoundly pathetic that the MSM didn't get the memo.

6. Rethug strategy: Turn Grayson into a "nut"
This is how they plan to marginalize him. Just what has he said that is not factual?

9. I'm confused
So the republicans and fox news are not the enemies of the U.S.?
Could've fooled me. They sure act like it. And CNN running to their defense does little for their own credibility. Kinda puts them in the tinfoil hat crowd if you ask me.

10. Be cold and unemotional? Their definition of "normalacy"??
Wear a suit and be sociopathic. Thats what they are telling us.
Turn Grayson into a "nutty fruitcake".

11. NO...we won't miss him.....adios MF.
I guess CNN has to have something to compete with bor's "pinhead or patriot" and Keith's "Worst Person in the World". But there is some truth to their ploy.

YES, Congressman Grayson is a bit over the edge; but I LOVE IT! He could have used maybe a more palatable choice of words than "whore" or "their plan is to die quickly". On the surface, they shock...especially the diaper wearing right wing. But IT GETS THEIR ATTENTION ALSO! And that's good!! All good.

I don't have a problem with Congressman Grayson saying the things he says. At least they are true. The choice of words could be softened to be a bit more "statesman-like", but screw that. We are in a political war here. These right wing butt holes have been pulling this shit for the past 20 years. It's long past time we get up off our "politically correct asses" and fight back.

THANK YOU Congressman Grayson. You are spot on!!
