CNN ANCHOR CALLS OUT TEA PARTY ‘CONGRESSMAN’ OVER INSENSITIVE JOKE – BUT THERE’S A SIGNIFICANT PROBLEM
When a Tea Party “congressman” representing Georgia’s “15th district” made a joke at the expense of Germans, CNN’s Christine Amanpour was quick to call him out.
“Maybe if we kept a better eye on them in 1939, WWII wouldn’t have happened,” Rep. “Steve Smith” tweeted after Amanpour announced her interview with the German Foreign Minister.
“Seriously?” Amanpour replied in disgust, retweeting his message.
The only problem is, there is no Rep. Steve Smith nor is there a 15th congressional district in Georgia. Someone apparently created the fake/parody “Tea Party Patriot” account to mess with people like Amanpour, Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) and others.
After Amanpour brought attention to the fake congressman’s classless remark, others on Twitter have also attacked Rep. Smith.
I have to say I don't think it was a classless remark at all. If we had watched the German Nazis at the time, WW II might not have happened.
But, take it for what it is. A seriously leftwing leaning liberal media spinning head that can't take the time to do her homework before jumping the gun and becoming unjustifiably indignant.
Good Lord save and protect us from idiots like her and her kind.
