Sen. John Kerry Brazenly Urges Media to Not Give Equal Time to Conservatives – Video 8/5/11

Here is video of Democrat Sen. John Kerry (AKA “Lurch”) actually this morning advocating that the media needs to stop giving equal time to conservative ideas and positions on issues! Kerry made the comments as part of his attack on the Tea Party Movement and fiscal conservatives in general for refusing to give President Obama a blank check with no strings attached in the recent Debt Ceiling debate.

“And what we had was a group of people who are completely unaware or didn’t care about the consequences of their actions. They were actually arguing for a default which would have been even more catastrophic with respect to what’s happening in Europe and what’s happening here at home now. So we have to break that, and I have to tell you, I say this to you politely: the media in America has a bigger responsibility than it’s exercising today. The media has got to begin to not give equal time or equal balance to an absolutely absurd notion just because somebody asserts it or simply because somebody says something which everybody knows is not factual, it doesn’t deserve the same credit as a legitimate idea about what you do. And the problem is everything is put into this tit-for-tat equal battle and America is losing any sense of, of what’s real, of who’s accountable, of who is not accountable, of who’s real, who isn’t, who’s serious, who isn’t?”

Only a far-Left liberal could suggest censorship so brazenly with a straight face and feel totally justified in doing so!
