Ok. So we know Wolf Blizter is an asshole, right?
Ok. Well, that may be a rhetorical question for some of us.
Here is why Blizter is an asshole:
At 5:30 PM EST - Wolf Blizter opens up the segment with the following question: "Should Americans Be Worried About France's Socialist President?"
Then he makes the ridiculous assertion that Americans are afraid of the term 'Socialists'
Along w/ Blizter's veiled attempts to scare impressionable Americans into believing 'Socialism' is some disease, I guess some engineer in the CNN control room thought it would be convenient title the segment "Socialists & The Obama Administration"
Blizter's guess was CNN International's Richard Quest who had to hastily reassure Wolf Blitzer and his viewers that they should not be afraid of socialists.
But Wolf Blizter isn't the only culprit guilty of fear-mongering and smearing French President Francois Hollande, they're others...Fox, rightwing talk radio, Tea Party, Wall Street - and sadly, but to be expected, Rahm Emanuel.
What makes Blitzer's attempt to fear-monger so dangerous? it is fear-mongering right out of the Fox News playbook.
