MSNBC Is No Longer A Viable Option, I Want A Divorce!

Before the election of 2008 I really didn’t give much credence to the MSM and the 24 hour news cycle; it was all a bunch of whoo wee to me. But during the 2008 election I was glued to the television (to MSNBC and CNN in particular). Once I saw how CNN rolled, I cut them off at the knees; it wasn’t difficult. Wolf Blitzer and his Situation Room just annoyed me to no end; the pundits became just so much hot air and I found them very difficult to listen to. So I focused all of my attention on MSNBC; I really fell in serious like with Keith Olberman and Chris Matthews. They were funny, irreverent and for the most part I thought “fair and balanced”; then in 2009 Rachel Maddow got her own show and I was completely smitten. The only blight on MSNBC was Pat Buchanan, but he was tolerable because I tuned him out; but yesterday on the Rachel Maddow show, Pat Buchanan became completely intolerable and today MSNBC acted as if the incident never happen. MSNBC barely acknowledged the blatant racism this numb nut displayed in his “White Men are Masters of The Universe” rant. It has completely turned me off and I like so many others will no longer watch MSNBC; I can’t, my conscience won’t let me. We always knew Pat was a racist, but he broke a blood vessel yesterday; it was so insulting to compare Judge Sonia Sotomayor to a black track team, to minimize her accomplishments because as so many other oppressed minorities, it was necessary for her to benefit from the equalizer affirmative action and to say that white men built this nation without acknowledging on whose back this nation was built (Blacks, Asians, Hispanics and poor Whites) was criminal.

Hey, there are many ways to vote in this country and I intend to exercise my right to vote these networks off the island. MSNBC is no longer welcome in my home, I WANT A DIVORCE!

Here is a great post from someone else who is divorcing MSNBC:

Because as long as Pat Buchanan is allowed to shout his bitter old white man bullshit on this network, I willnot watch. I am done with MSNBC. Enjoy this video–or, you know, not–because I’m not posting anything else from this network until Pat Buchanan is handed his hood and robe and shown the door.

Last night on the Rachel Maddow Show, Uncle Pat was allowed to declare that white men were soley responsible for the architecture of this country:

“White men were 100% of the people that wrote the Constitution, 100% of the people that signed the Declaration of Independence, 100% of the people who died at Gettysburg and Vicksburg, probably close to 100% of the people who died at Normandy. This has been a country built basically by white folks, who were 90% of the nation in 1960 when I was growing up and the other 10% were African-Americans who had been discriminated against. That’s why.”

This is a country basically built by white folks. But for some reason, Buchanan forgot to mention that this country was also built by the Africans those white folks shipped over to do the heavy lifting. And by the Natives that whites did their best to wipe from the land. And by the Asians who built the railroads, and by the hispanics who, now as in our country’s history, tended our fields. But it is the white man who orchestrated the great symphony of America–the white man who fought America’s wars and brought home victory.

White men have created life as we know it, and for that, we should be grateful. So, that ten percent of black folks who were brutally oppressed when Pat was growing up–they don’t amount to much. In fact, any contribution any person of color has made to the creation and progress of America has been rendered irrelevant by the sheer majesty of white men.
