Left-Leaning Opinion/News Hosts Try To Have a Dialogue With Right-Leaning Nutjobs; Goes About As Well As One Would Expect


Via Democratic Underground:

Lawrence O'Donnell asks Orly Taitz about Obama's birth certificate release, she tries to talk about Obama's social security number, Lawrence kicks her ass off.

Cenk Uygar asks Joseph Farah if he's satisfied now; Farah says no because "the government" released the document and Obama's father was not a US citizen, Cenk puts him on the crazy train.

I hate to say this, but on top of the blatant racism of pressuring a black man to prove his legitimacy in this day an age, this modern day racist witch hunt has, for one day, allowed the MSNBC haters to compare O'Donnell to (serial mic-cutter) Bill O'Reilly and Uygar to (Mr. If-You-Don't-Agree-With-Me-You-Suck) Sean Hannity. I will not be surprised to see any "Both sides do it!" posts over the next few days. Again, it's neither of these guys' fault, but you can't engage crazy without consequences to your own image and/or well-being.

I hope that Cenk and Lawrence only invite sane people for engaging debates from now on, and leave the nuts for Arkham Asylum.

UPDATE: Thom Hartmann tries his hand at getting something useful out of Taitz, and has just about as much luck as O'Donnell did. And while Thom did let her ramble on, he (similar Lawrence and Cenk) made sure to close the segment by explaining what this is really about.
