Bob Schieffer is one more reason to ignore our news media.

He contradicts himself on the major points. He is all over the place. For example he says he doesn't know if what Snowden found is of major importance or not then goes on to say he is an arrogant fuck up and we should just trust the politicians. WTF? That is the most fucked up thing Schieffer has ever said. Stupid beyond belief! If he doesn't know he shouldn't have a fucking opinion on it!

(649 posts)7. Exactly the lame crap people around here have been parroting all week,.
Same lame attacks on the messenger and zero substance to their non-arguments. Such a blatant and lazy attempt at it too,. Schieffer should be ashamed and clearly should not be thought of as a journalist, as he is clearly a gov. lapdog.
Great job Cenk of calling him out on this utter bullsht!
And Cenk's arguments equally apply to all you parroting the same Schieffer lameness!
