Romney Ku Klux Klan Report Backfires on Media

It appears that Mr. Romney did not in fact say the words “keep America American,” as AMERICAblog reported on Tuesday. The blog said that he had done so on two occasions, one last year and one last week, and stated (accurately) that “Keep America American” was a phrase employed by the K.K.K. in the 1920s.

MSNBC apparently did not contact the Romney campaign for comment before it briefly reported on Wednesday morning that  “you may not hear Mitt Romney say ‘Keep America American’ anymore, because it was a rallying cry for the K.K.K. group.” The anchor credited AMERICAblog; the graphic on the screen read, “Romney’s KKK Slogan?”

This is just stupid.

Kinda hypocritical for the NY Slimes to badmouth MSNBC and WaPo when they themselves routinely release classified information, despite requests not to.

Which most likely explains why the NY Slimes continues to be one of the preeminent shithole rags in the USA.
