Current TV Guy Wears Smart-Guy Glasses, Blasts the Tea Party
Current TV is Al Gore’s new “channel” and the home to PMSNBC reject Countdown with Keith Olbermann. Sam Seder, some guy with glasses, offers his intelligent and well-informed view of the tea party movement as he slams New Mexico governor Susana Martinez. First, Seder accuses the tea party of wanting “moats encircling our borders”. No, sir, the President said that. I bet you think Sarah Palin really said “I can see Alaska from my house” too. Seder then gets his glasses all fogged up as he seethes about Martinez admitting her grandparents were illegal immigrants. He asserts this makes her a hypocrite and a desperate shill for tea party votes because Martinez wants to require identification for obtaining driver’s licenses, which is obviously racist. Proving you are who you say you are before you operate a vehicle? Inconceivable! A representative for Martinez says she only recently found out about her grandparents, who arrived in the U.S. in the 1920’s, when immigration laws were much different. Not that Glasses McGee cares. He was so excited to present this as proof the tea party is racist he didn’t bother considering any other aspects of the matter. Witness Mr. Myglassesmakemelooksmart calmly display his warped, twisted vitriol toward average Americans as he talks about the warped, twisted vitriol of little old ladies and stay at home moms with homemade signs…I mean the tea party. Oh, and one more thing…there is no such thing as an undocumented immigrant. There are immigrants and illegal immigrants. The lack of documents makes you ILLEGAL, and thus, a criminal. Americans love immigrants, for obvious reasons. Criminals? Not so much.

Speaking of hypocrites, right? C’mon, where is the unbiased reporting? Not Current TV, thats for sure. It’s amazing people will say whatever you want them to when you give them a little money. I guess he is hiding behind his “smart guy” glasses. Shame.
Palin never said “I can see ALaska from my house.” I don’t even think she was being accused of that.
Try “Russia.”
In a 2008 interview with Gibson:
As Gibson and Palin discussed the conflict between Russia and Georgia, Gibson had asked, “What insight into Russian actions particularly in the last couple of weeks, does the proximity of this state give you?”
Palin responded: “They’re our next door neighbors. And you can actually see Russia from land here in Alaska.”
I think SNL coverted this into the Tina Fey spoof.
