Geraldo Rivera unhinged
Update 9/9: The idiocy continues.
Update 9/6: Liberal logic. Rivera threatens to spit on me. Ergo, I am the Worst Person in the World.
The Boston Globe has a fawning Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous-ish profile of Fox News Channel’s Geraldo Rivera. In between musing about his favorite pair of soft Uggs (”I’ve worn these in Tora Bora and Somalia,” he says, admiring the suede slip-ons with the sheepskin lining. “They’re so comfortable. I love them.”), his “36-foot Hinckley powerboat,” and his massive estates (including “Seagate, the spectacular, 10-bedroom estate he bought several years ago with his fourth wife” and another “Kennedy-esque compound” with his current wife), he spews this:
Rivera, who as a fledgling lawyer in the ’70s counseled the Puerto Rican nationalist group the Young Lords, says he can’t stomach the politicians and pundits who are stoking “anti-immigrant hysteria,” and his antipathy extends to some of his colleagues at Fox.
“Michelle Malkin is the most vile, hateful commentator I’ve ever met in my life,” he says. “She actually believes that neighbors should start snitching out neighbors, and we should be deporting people.
“It’s good she’s in D.C. and I’m in New York,” Rivera sneers. “I’d spit on her if I saw her.”
Ewwww!
Well, I suppose I should be grateful for the warning. Next time I’m up in New York, I’ll be sure to wear one of these:
***
Who’s the hater? Allah holds up the mirror for the Geraldo-ists.
Flashback: Geraldo “cringes” every time I’m on Fox.
Flashback: Geraldo attacks again.

UNhinged? Has Geraldo ever been hinged? I don’t think so…
He is quite a superficial and despicable human being seemingly incapable of rational thought. Other than that, though, he’s a wonderful fellow.
One key to the character of a person is who their friends and enemies are. To have Geraldo as an enemy says nothing but good about you.
Does this mean we get Smackdown 2?. I doubt it though, I’ve noticed that you and Geraldo have been kept apart this summer while you were filling in for Bill. He should be made to answer for his comments as they are exactally the kind of hate speech O’Reily had be condemning
Don’t worry Michelle there are plenty of us who would wipe the spittal off of you but moreso stand between you two so he didn’t have the chance to do it. I seem to remember when he gets to sputtering his rants on tv stuff start dribbling out of his mouth he gets so frothed up.
He should be made to answer for his comments as they are exactally the kind of hate speech O’Reily had be condemning
…Geraldo takes the low road, one more time…
Why doesn’t he try to spit on Big Bill O’? Is it because Bill is 6′5″ and Michelle is maybe 5′?” ? Fox needs to do something about this. Isn’t spitting considered attempted murder in some instances?
Such a macho dude.
He is a national embarassment.
But let me take a more compassionate tone.
Poor Jerry. His blood sugar is raging out of control. His blood pressure when he is on camera must be over the top as well. Makes for serious stroke out possibilities. He should move to France at once.
5 marriages. Why doesn’t he just convert to Islam and do it up right, by golly.
And what’s with the grade school level sentiment of spitting on people?
Is he part llama? Como te llamas, Geraldo?
I think his displaced rage goes back to getting spanked a little too hard when he was a tyke.
The way he starts to sputter and spout when a conservative political commentator addresses him suggests that perhaps he has internalized a deep envy of those who can keep their corks in place.
It’s safe to say he has dollar and marital issues that have spilled over into his public life. Not to say these should be dwelled upon or offered as some ad hominem critique of his schtick.
But, come on, “I’d spit on her if I saw her” ???
For Geraldon’t, the political has become way too personal.
Countdown to stroke out begins now.
Michelle, Instead of the face shield I’d suggest a full on Haz-Mat suit. ewwww! is right.
Wear Geraldo’s hatred for you as a badge of pride and a sign that you are doing and saying the right things.
The more you speak the truth, the more deranged he gets and the lower he has to stoop in a futile attempt to distract people from said truth.
er, badge of honor, but you get my point.
Takes one to know one GR … you have definitely earned the title as the illegals “Jackson-Sharpton race-baiter extraordinaire” …
I have a suggestion for you GR … get your head out of the sand and quit playing the hispanic race card every time ANY question is asked of you … in your eyes all references to illegals are references to hispanic people … WRONG … we want all illegals stopped no matter what country or ethnic background they come from …
You better believe it GR … and so do a large majority of the rest of us in this country … I am tired of seeing this great country being taken over by people that are not here legally … period … exclamation point … and absolutely no question mark to any of that …
I do believe that qualifies under the law as a threat of personal attack and harm …
We are all with you Michelle …
One thing consistent with liberals is they ARE what they claim their enemies to be. He calls M vile and hateful… an apt description of his desire to spit on her.
From the Boston Globe article, speaking of Hairaldo:
They would not have had to move the needle far.
What the hell is wrong with him? A comment like can put Michelle in harms way and like bear said extremely childish. What a flippin idiot.
Michelle, I’m with you all the way. If Geraldo wants to spit on someone tell him to see me. I would welcome the opportnity to respond to his criminal assault. Never mind, I already emailed him the invitation directly.
Geraldo is a loser plain and simple. I would like to see him, Lindsay Graham, Ted Kennedy and Jane Fonda join him on his 36′ boat and sail of into Guantanamo Bay. Where is Dean when we need him?
Anyway, don’t worry about this clown. I’ve been called a lot worse and I always remembered what my Mom used to say. “Sticks and stones will break your bones but names will never hurt you”
Once again, the basic difference which eludes Geraldo is that MM and others are not against immigrants, they are illegal and criminal immigrants.
GR and his ilk see no distinction. GR is a high-profile example of liberal blinders. He cannot make the distinction between the two.
Perhaps ‘blinders’ is even the wrong word - it’s a pair of racial goggles that only allows the wearer to see an argument, viewpoint or fact along racial lines.
One point in the news recently is a study of how my blacks are incarcerated in proportion to their percentile make-up in our state. The Democratic administration of our Governor wants to study what we, as a society, can do to remedy it.
The remedy is simple, and begins in those minority communities - STOP COMMITING MORE CRIMES.
Such is the simplicity of the illegal immigration problem - ENFORCE THE BORDERS - DEPORT THE CRIMINALS - NO AMNESTY. But the left sees ‘race’ written all over it - and when they don’t see race, they see poverty, and wonder why our country can’t open its arms to those in need.
Yet they conveniently forget how much our country already does so, to the cost of billions of dollars each year to US taxpayers.
As for his spitting comment, it just goes to show what a low-life creature he truly is. MM is an educated, articulate, mother and wife who simply has a different viewpoint and expresses her views not only in print and media, but by vocalizing and mobilizing others to the conservative cause.
It’s amazing to me that he would ’spit’ on Michelle Malkin but has never offered the same hatred towards vocal advocates of our enemies.
That says a lot.

sorry dl, I see you hit on this already.
Sorry - Didn’t catch it initially - paragraph 4 should read, “One point in the news recently is a study of how MANY blacks are incarcerated in proportion to their percentile make-up in our state.”
Don’t want to be accused of being a racist.
I think it was last week that Powerline identified Bill Moyers as the most despicable man in America. Geraldo certainly gives Moyers a run for his money for the title. And next week who knows who will aspire to being the top liberal halfwit and dirtbag? So many candidates!
Admit it jrl, you are a racist I know you dont like da bears.
Wow, what a despicable, hateful comment.
Michelle is a sweetheart, besides that kind of talk is unacceptable.
I recently wrote to Fox about Geraldo.
I wish like heck they would get rid of him. He is everywhere, besides having his own show and over-talks whoever the other guest may be. Recently Sean invited Tom Tancredo on, and this man hardly got to say a word because of Geraldo and I blame Sean also for this.
Geraldo needs to go, or leave him just on his won show if you want. But he should be held accountable for those very hateful words towards Michele. It’s like Fox can’t touch him, but I wish they would, he ruins the show and the words he used against Michelle are what he really feels. How can Fox or anyone defend him?
HAHAHAHA!!! Geraldo is so pathetic, its funny how hollow his shameless defense of illegal immigration is! His impotent rage at Michelle is even funnier!
LOL…aj….
No - I’m not a Bears fan, even though I grew up in the Windy City - but I am, and forever will be, a Payton fan.
Back on topic…from the Boston Globe article:
I think that says all it needs to about Geraldo. Being famous is what’s important to him. How many journalists are out there, more concerned with getting it right, than being famous?
If getting your butt-fat injected into your face ( I still love that one ) and getting into fist-fights on tv are you way of being famous and therefore having a great career, then you need some serious help.
I’ll be over here talking with the journalist with a history of getting things right and telling the story honestly. Perhaps sipping a Caramel Machiatto, right Michelle?
Michelle,
I can tell you this if Geraldo was on FIRE, I wouldn’t cross the street to spit on him GRIN.
Copy of my email to the Coward.
Hey Geraldo,
I saw your interview in the Boston Globe. If you really want to spit on Michelle Malkin, may I suggest you call me instead. I would welcome the opportunity to once again respond to such a criminal assault however, as a combat veteran and a police officer of 30 years I don’t think you would appreciate my response.
If you were any kind of man you would apologize to Michelle publicly right now and then you would resign from Fox News because you obviously do not have the objectivity to report the immigration issue fairly. I don’t expect that to happen because you are obviously NOT a man. A real man would never threaten a woman. You are a coward.
Feel free to call me at xxx-xxx-xxxx (actual number included to Coward)
Michelle,I have a suggestion: steel-toed boots.Should Geraldo el loco actually spit on you,I’m sure you’ll come up with a suitable use for them.
Michelle would kick his butt in a real fight. I’d put a franklin on it!
You just nailed it JRL. Geraldo isn’t a journalist. He’s a ‘celebrity’. He’s no better than Paris Hilton. It’s all about being Famous.
He’s just a sad little man..
Doe’s he quailify as a crapweasel?
I just called the Crapweasel local office, and they refused to dignify my question with a response.
I’m guessing either:
a. They don’t want him
b. He’s not only a member, he’s the president
c. Their still reviewing his application.
lol jrl, 1-800-crapweasel. the “National Association of Crapweasels” just hung up on me.
I detest Whoraldo very much. I hope Michelle keeps a full Chemical Warfare kit to protect herself from any threats from this low life’s bodily fluids (you never know what bacterial agents he carries). He is a low class media whore and every time I see him on TV it either goes off or I change the channel. I really feel for Michelle even having to talk to this slim ball, but she always manages to maintain her composure while he comes unglued.
Trintytim I really liked you response to the individual in question. I would love to throw down the same gauntlet to protect the lovely Ms Malkin from this self important fop.
Michelle, this is a sign that you have him freaked out as your name comes so quickly to his mustachioed lips.Congratulations! You must have him a) worried, b) angry, or c) intimidated.
Carry one of those little hand fans with you and blow his spittle back into his arrogant face.
The Boston Globe piece has given me some insight into his mental problems—I think he had a fatty embolism from his forehead buttocks transplant travel to what is left of his brain. This explains the Tourette’s like symptoms as he is brain damaged.
Exactly. I predict that his Fox days are numbered. His ratings will continue to fall, and he will go back to the MSM wasteland where his style of substance is welcomed.
It has always been clear to me that Geraldo was a liberal in conservative sheeps clothing. I put up with him, because at some point in the War, he seemed to at least have the courage of going to Iraq, unlike many other so called war journalists.
However, his motivations became fairly obvious; and like all things he has done, it was claearly about him and not the subject he was reporting.
I do not watch O’Reilly when he is on; I turn the station and I certainly don’t watch any weekend shows staring Rivera. I wonder how Geraldo effects O’Reilly’s ratings.
He is an irritating man who has little to offer the world in ‘reasonable’ debate and commentary. If I were Michelle Malkin I would consider it an honor to be despised by him.
Ad infinitum.
I wonder if Geraldo even thinks about what he says and how it reflects on Fox and ultimately his boss Rupert Murdoch?
And if Rupert doesn’t take him to task for such a wide array of despicable comments is it then acceptable or condoned and that personal attacks by Geraldo are within the scope of professional commentators at Fox?
No other workplace allow such harassment to take place the Managers at Fox shouldn’t either.
I served with Crapweasels. I know Crapweasels. Crapweasels are not friends of mine. Geraldo Rivera,you’re a Crapweasel
I suspect Fox’s endeavor to show fair and balanced personalities provides for such examples as GR. It allows us to see just how vile and repulsive the other stages themselves to make their insubstantial points and gain contentious attention.
Michelle:
Name calling like Geraldo is doing is what liberals do when they lose arguments. You should send him an e-mail that says: “Dear Geraldo, thank you for admitting defeat in the illegal immigration debate. Your descent into name-calling and personal attacks signals very loudly that you have come to the realization that I am right and you are wrong. Again, thank you for seeing the light on this important issue. I hope we can work together in the future to stop illegal immigration, something we now both agree must occur.”
And a couple of thoughts:
1)Please don’t defend Michelle by making rude remarks about Geraldo’s ethnicity. You just sound like an ass and give race-baiters like Geraldo some talking points.
2) A small correcton for Geraldo: He has not been “famous” for 40 years; he’s been “infamous” for about 25. There’s a big difference.
Are world events making you queasy? Do facts and logic interfere with your happy world? Do you long for the good old days when emotional virtiol trumped rational thought? We have the solution.
Geritaldo. Just one dose and you will drift into a land of senseless nirvana, where comfort awaits free from intrusion by cogent thought.
Geritaldo. The same tired, old remedy for the days when old and tired ruled.
Geritaldo. Shout louder, spit further.
Geritaldo. From the kumbaya people.
WARNING: Frequent exposure can lead to loss of memory, job loss, premature death by stupidity, hoarseness and in some cases a rubber room at a guarded mental health facility.
Speaking of Geraldo, I was pleasantly surprised when I heard one of my fellow seminarians, upon seeing Mr. Rivera on Fox News ranting about the usual, say, “He needs to be deported!”
I havn’t seen any rude comments about his ethnicity? or does “crapweasel” once again qualify?
Poor Geraldo. Intimidated by a girl (who stands about 5′4″?) Where is the Golden Glove boxer macho man? Hahaha.
He knows she’s got him by the short hairs on this immigration debate. It must be frustrating for Macho Mustachio to be intellectually slapped around so badly.
I think he suffers from Battered Pundit Syndrome.
He lost the argument and he’s sore about it. I don’t think he would actually physically assault Michelle, he is a lawyer after all. He’s just throwing another patnented Geraldo hissy fit. Reminds me a little of Grahamnesty convulsions when he knew he lost. Heh.
One more thing for Mustachio:
Boo Freakin Hoo.
As the saying goes; “if you can’t stand the heat in the kitchen (FOX), then get out of the kitchen. I used watche his program on the weekends. Never again! See Geraldo, it’s easy. If you don’t like something turn the channel.
A disgusting man who spits on women…..yet he supports the illegal (yes Geraldo, illegal) aliens who break our laws daily. He’s no better than your typical illegal alien with no respect for our laws. Go back to Puerto Rico Geraldo. You have overstayed your welcome here.
Michelle is Sally Kimball to Jerry Rivers’s Bugs Meany.
Geritolado; (regarding comments)
““Michelle Malkin is the most vile, hateful commentator I’ve ever met in my life,” he says. “She actually believes that neighbors should start snitching out neighbors, and we should be deporting people.”
Vile? Hateful? In liberal terms that translates into TRUTH and IT HURTS.
Snitching on neighbors? You bet I will if they are illegal.
Spit on Michelle? What…through that moustache? Yuck! Wonder how many germs are harbored in your lipwig?
Gross and typical women hater mentality.
I hope he’s reading these posts ’cause he has serious anger issues and he needs refresher courses in LAW…..so he’ll know the non rights of illegals.
If he doesn’t like the laws, then move to Mexico and serve those pitiful Hispanics for free. Then come back and complain.
Real tough guy, that Geraldo.
Seems a lot of you want Fox to get rid of GR, but then who would we poke with a stick. I might be wrong, but its fun to poke GR and see him foam at the mouth.
There is still Colmes.
Something else to add:
When we are strolling down Geraldo’s memory lane, don’t forget the incident that really sealed my opinion of the Mustachio. He decided that he should draw a sand map of the immediate future movements of the 101st Airborne Division on live world-wide TV, while embedded with our Screaming Eagles. Saddam still had a military that was resisting, and an intelligence service monitoring world media for any information they could glean. Did he consider operational security at all? No. He considered his sensationalist, self aggrandizing “reporting” more important than the operational success of one of the most legendary military units in American history. Not to mention the increased risk to the individual soldiers of that unit. He better be glad all that happened was his humiliation by being asked to leave the theater of battle. If Saddam’s forces were more competent, and ours less so, it could have been a disaster for our forces.
Nice going, Macho Mustachio.
“Crapweasel” is for politicians. I prefer “Smacker-head” for Gerald.
What is a Smacker-head you ask?
Well, you know when someone says something really stupid and you feel like smackin’ em “upside” the back of their head but for one reason or another you can’t? That my friends is a Smacker-head.
Gerald annoys me to no end…but I can’t get to him to smack em for real so I like to envision my self smackin him in such a way as to leave his hair sticking up in back and his glasses cocked sideways on his face. Smacker-head….that’s what he is.
I’m starting to really get that.
He says this about Bill O’Reilly:
And this about Michelle:
He makes a good case for gender discrimination against himself.
He’s been married five times and wife number five is 32 while he’s 64.
Sounds like a great candidate for family therapy with some real anger issues.
Wife number four thinks he’s cool (she got the ten million dollar estate), I wonder if they all do?
Hi Michelle,
I’m not the biggest Allah fan, but he is hot under the collar regarding this over at hotair and I have the utmost respect for his fiercest loyalty to you. He’s a good employee and an even better friend.
It is amazing how uncivil the left can be.
Bimbo Rivera, I spit on your mustache.
Rational Thought, the same came to my mind…”infamous” yes, but “famous” hmmmm…like the plague maybe.
Now about Fox…there sliding slowly to the left, have been now for at least a yr. Bill O Bore is getting very routine, and he seems to load his show with lefties such as Whoraldo. Does anyone have the ratings of Whoraldo’s show? I’m curious which MSNBC program beats him in the ratings.
Others have said his anger shows his loss of the debate to MM I agree, but I think there is an under lying problem with him. Of the 4 ex’s how many were intimidated beyond living with this “infamous clown”?
Geraldo probably has TB so you would be wise to avoid him.
If he ever answers a direct question in defending open borders and amnesty, I might respect him a little.
His spitting tirade is the behavior of a girly man.
Gerald Riviera is ( aka Geraldo, name changed to get the hispanic viewer) is the worst kind of racist. He doesn’t care about anyone BUT his race. Gerald is equally vile as anyone in the KKK, IMO.
Without his race rant, he would be nothing. Geraldo is a hollow human being, shallow to his empty core.
He has brought nothing of substance to the journalistic world in 4 decades. What he has brought forth is embarrassment and his own vile hatred of anything non-latino.
.
He is a picture of anti-American sentiments. Nothing about him is part of the American dream other than the fact that anyone, even someone quite evil, can make a buck… and that disgusts me.
. Gerlado, we are a nation of laws and equality, think about that when you’ve got a mouth full of Sxxx. ( rhymes with…)
Fox needs to drop this *******.
What a tough guy you are, Geraldo, threatening a woman. In the battle of ideas, Michelle decimates Geraldo’s weak arguments, and he responds with physical violence thus revealing his puny intellect.
Kinda makes one wonder about his four divorces: does he threaten all women? Or, do women routinely crush his fragile ego?
Geraldo — the Mustachio Misogynist.
Geraldo has made himself into a laughable celebrity, he has no journalistic talent, prowess, or integrity. Or training for that matter. Michelle need not justify his ridiculous remarks with any comment, HE says it all.
As for Fox, I am curious how the ratings are looking lately for Geraldo’s Freakshow, The Shep “Katrina Chronicles” Follies, and of course “Off The Wall” with Greta…There has to be a lot more like me changing networks at the top of those hours.
Indeed. I may not have soft Ugg boots or 36-foot boats, but I’m a lucky gal.
NO UGG BOOTS, I’m Outa here.
BTW, spitting on someone is considered battery. You’d think legal eagle Geraldo would know that.
See here.
I’m beginning to wonder about Geraldo’s immigration status. Maybe his middle name is ‘Anchor’.
Yeah, I don’t know why some of you people are calling for his head. He’s too useful to us to throw away like that, which I think Allah agrees with, and I’m sure Michelle would too.
As for Ugg boots, I think they forgot an ‘F’ on that, those things are hideous, and I thought they were just for women…
You continue to amaze me
No doubt what so ever about what a strong woman you are, but PLEASE wear a face shield next time you are slated to appear with that fool. I want to see the look on his face when you ask for a second to reply, reach down and come up with one, then after placing it on your head, respond. Put that fool in his place I beg you
Seriously though:
UGG boots? On a guy?
I am sending a letter to Roger Ailes demanding that Geraldo be shown the door. His remarks are beyond the pale.
He should go to SeeBS, where he belongs.
See-Dub…s’what I was thinking, since when do dudes wear Uggs?
Ewww. Spitting on Michelle because you don’t agree with her opinions? She is too pretty for that nonsense.
Spitting on another person is indeed a crime. It is considered a “battery” under common law and can be successfully prosecuted. In Maryland, it is a misdemeanor and generally charged as Assault and Battery.
However, stating to a third party that you have a deisre to spit on someone is not a crime. Therefore, Gerald “The Coward” did not yet commit a crime and I’m sure he knows that. Even though he’s ignorant, he’s not that stupid.
I have written The Factor and informed them that I expect Bill to onfront “The Coward” about these discriminatory, hate filled comments on his weekly segment with “The Coward”. I would hope that all of us would let Bill know how we feel about the provacative words spoken by this clown.
By the way, “The Coward” has not yet called me. I’ll let you know what he has to say for himself when he does call.
Geraldo is a wimp (and something else rhyming with ‘hissy’) trying to act tough when he can’t stand up to a light breeze. I still remember him bragging with a pistol that he’d plug OBL, he’d probably get so scared he’d drop it and shoot himself in the foot.
Here’s a guy who has always pleaded with the MSM to take him seriously.
After that spitting comment, how is it possible that anyone could mistake him for anything but a simpering sot of a whining coward?
I sincerely hope, as some have suggested here, that someone bring this to the attention of the powers that be at Fox. He should be fired for that comment, pure and simple.
People should write O’Reilly as well as FOX as he regularly has Mr.Saliva on his show.
Here is Bill O’Reilly’s email address:
oreilly@foxnews.com
I will continue to change the channel if I see or hear Geraldo Rivera.
FOX News, check Geraldo’s ratings as they will continue to circle the drain.
Why do you keep him on?
I kind of side with Allah (H.A.) on this one. Geraldo is way to good of a source of endless material to wish him canned. Let’s just voice & e-mail our displeasure to FOX and keep him on to kick around for a while! His comments just show his true colors.
Trinity not to split hairs but he did not say he has a desire to spit on her. he said,
There is a big difference.
Geraldo is a sorry excuse for a human being. He is a hater and indulges in character assassination on a regular basis with people who don’t agree with his leftist views. He doesn’t belong on FOX News. He should be on CNN. Maybe we should all be writing to FOX News about this.
I wonder if Geraldo would have the guts to talk like this on The Factor? Why doesn’t he say this to Michelle to her face when they are both on the show? No guts.
Michelle is honorable and deals with facts. Geraldo is beneath contempt.
DL:
I’ve seen this fact thrown around a lot, and I’m very interested in seeing where you get it. When you say “a large majority” are you saying that most Americans want Law Enforcement to verify someone’s immigration status if they assume they are here illegally (thus becoming an inconveinence to people who might match certain assumptions based on how they dress, talk, stand or look)? Or are you just saying that a lot of people in the country wouldn’t mind if everyone had to carry around a “tamper proof biometric ID card” as has been suggested by Rudy Guiliani?
(Interesting people are making fun of GR because of his multiple divorces and convienently look past Guiliani’s personal shortcomings… but I digress)
The latest polls I look at show Americans just want a solution as opposed to the Ann Coulter methodology of just rounding up people. In fact, most people agree with BOR that this is highly unlikely and unreasonable.
Not trying to be a smart alleck, but I’d like to look at the source of your argument. As far as the content of what GR said, I don’t see how anyone can defend that kind of language. Totally unacceptable.
I look forward to hearing from you.
This steams me to no end. I still dont know why this phony even has a JOB.
If FOX lets this slide, I will be incredibly angry. I am emailing them today to complain. I suggest we ALL do it!
The man is an idiot. Remember, liberalism is driven, not by logical thought, but emotion. Their entire philosophy is emotion-driven. I know, I used to be…sigh…a far left liberal once myself. Fortunately, I got a brain and thought things out. Liberals use emotion to guide their beliefs because of ignorance of history and present affairs of the world. That’s all they have left. Geraldo, I would like to see a public apology to a wonderful lady, though I doubt you would ever do it. Hate speech is emotion, allowed under liberal thought. Now there’s a oxymoron!
aj…. No problem.
Unfortunately, in order for this to be a crime, “The Coward” would have to be in the physical presence of MM and then make that statement. The fact that he made it to a 3rd party several hundred miles away makes this statement a non-crime.
I have been in situations where a criminal told me to my face that he would like to kill me, but even that was not a crime. That did not preclude me from eliminating his freedom for other crimes committed in my presence but a person making a threat must be able to carry out that threat for it to be a crime. At least, that’s what I always taught in police academies and that’s the way the courts have always interpreted it.
But, you’re right, there’s no sense in splitting hairs. The real crime is that “The Coward” should keep his mouth shut and give Michelle the respect that she deserves, but I suspect he treats all women this same way.
I am not defending “The Coward”. Quite the opposite. He makes me sick in my stomach every time he opens his mouth.
We need to begin getting the language right. An ‘Immigrant’ is legal. An ‘Illegal Alien’ has broken the law and by definition is a criminal. If Illegal Aliens cannot make a living in this country, they will leave under their own power.
If you let your adversary chose the language of the debate you have already lost.
If you lose your language and lose your borders you don’t have a country.
You’re quoting the WSJ as a valid source? That’s funny, they’ve been aggressively pounding for open borders for over a decade! Like we can trust them to hold a valid poll on this issue!
I see as the most compelling poll as the phone calls, faxes, and email campaign to the Senate in the latter days of June ‘07. That said a lot about how Americans feel about “illegal aliens”
He still shouldn’t get to slide on something this egregious and the level of punishment should be as according to Fox policy and his Managers.
Some part I think should include a genuine apology and some mandated counseling.
I am sooo tired of that hate- filled,sorry-a$$ed excuse for a human being.He should be banned from ever appearing on T.V. or in print again.That moron has made a lucrative career out of being a rabble-rousing big mouth and contributing absolutely nothing to to the human race.I have made a point not to watch that clown for many years,until he started appearing with Michelle,but even watching him get slapped-down is getting boring.
NBC News and the Wall Street journal?
ROTFLMAO….. times ten.
still laughing.
All,
If you take into account his Hispanic heritage, you would realize, he is sending a message to his compadres’ This is one of the ugliest insults in Hispanic Culture.
Michelle, Our family adores you.
That better not happen around any of the regular commenters here. The only thing left of Geraldope would be a tattered mustache lying on the pavement.
No real man would spit on a woman. Geraldo’s a creep, pure and simple.
I don’t see how Fox News can put up with his “spit” threat. Geraldo better cool down.
I certainly hope that the next time Fox has Geraldo & Michelle on together that he is asked to comment and / or apologize for his statements.
Even being on without Michelle, he should be called out for it.
But there should be an on-air apology demanded for this.
Personally, I would like to see him gone from Fox for being such a sleazeball.
DarkKnight - here’s your polls / numbers:
By eight-to-one, Americans think it is unfair to grant rights to illegal immigrants while thousands of people wait each year to come to the United States legally. Fully eighty-six percent of Republicans think it is unfair, as do seventy-seven percent of Democrats.
Opinion Dynamics Poll for FOX News, April 4-5, 2006
Sixty-five percent of those surveyed said they would be willing to pay significantly higher prices for some goods and services should that be the result of tighter control of the southern U.S. border and a resulting lower number of undocumented workers.
Zogby Poll, March 31-April 3, 2006
Fifty-six percent of Americans polled say the U.S. should NOT grant temporary-worker status to foreigners who are here illegally, as this would make them and their families eligible for government services while they are here. We should not reward people who have broken the law, and this will encourage even more people to enter the United States illegally.
NBC News/Wall Street Journal Poll, March 10-13, 2006

jrlingreenbay…
Amen !!!
If he is soooo anxious to spit on someone who does not agree with him, how come he didn’t spit on O’Riley when they were having a VERY heated argument about immigration.
Maybe it’s O’Riley’s six ft four inch frame that held him back. I’m guessing that MM is about 5ft to 5′1″ tall, and a girl too.
Saw GR at Miami airport once and I’m not sure if he is big enough to take on MM.
Gotta agree there. GRs screen door has been flappin in the wind for a long time. This vile personal verbal attack on Michelle just serves to highlight that fact.
Unhinged has become “acceptable” in that you expect it from the usual suspects. Here Geraldo is just adding his total boorishness and amazingly ill manners to the unhinged mix.
All,
The Media has inserted “undocumented people” into our vocabulary but there is another word we don’t hear enough of and it is the answer, Attrition. I know at least one state has thought about it and it is way up on the Canadian Border, every American State is a Border State. This is a write up with some answers. We keep getting told you can’t deport 12 million people.

Don’t you worry about a thing Michelle; if that puke even dared to attempt spitting on you, I’d personally horse whip his whinning liberal @$$ all the way back to Puerto Rico. I’m sending another letter to FNC, and to Orielly about this cowards behavior.
Why does this remind me of when the hippies, tried to hit Anne Coulter with a Pie at a speaking engagement. What is the term for this kind of behavior- Juvenile.
Fox needs to held accountable on this. In fact, Fox needs to be held accountable for aiding, abetting and promoting a clown like Rivera in any way. The network gets a pass from right-leaning viewers (including me) on a lot of things but between their 24/7 coverage of Anna Nicole Smith and hour after hour about Larry Craig while practically ignoring Hsu they are edging toward becoming as ridiculous and irrelevant as Rivera.
Fox can’t take its viewership for granted forever. If they continue to “tabloidize” their news division out of sheer laziness and ratings pandering they’re going to find their core audience has given up on them just like we’ve given up on newspapers. Thank God for the internet.
God Bless Ann Coulter.

The latest polls I look at show Americans just want a solution as opposed to the Ann Coulter methodology of just rounding up people.
Yup, AJ and I’d say “rounding up people” is a solution - and a darn good one. Works every time it’s tried.
Laree #103, to take this a step further. It’s childish, but follows what some liberals and fringe groups believe they can do. Namely, insult and twist the facts. When that fails to win their argument - throw a pie.

I don’t know that any of the cable news outlets, are figuring out what their audience want. In my case, live news and relevant news. Every time I turned on a channel with coverage of an English Princess, that has been dead for 10 years, this past week, I changed the channel. Substance and Content, why is that so difficult? I know it is 24/7 news cycle and yes there will be filler but there should be less of it. CNN and MSNBC are planning on counter programing for Fox News by running more things like Doc Blocks- canned programing. Christiane’s God’s Warriors got ratings so they think they will go this route. Nevermind that God’s Warriors was panned. Including by me!
I think the old medium- TV, better figure out fast, that the new medium the Internet is going to figure out how to by pass them completely. Viva La Internet. Below is the plan to counter program Fox News.

LGF is running a thread on this also. Lots of MM fans there, of course.

24Klady,
In both cases, the hippies with the pie and Geraldo at a safe distance so he doesn’t have to follow through with his insult. I would call this Hit and Run. In Geraldo’s case, he is grown man, he doesn’t have any excuse.
I don’t know they should poll Liberals and ask, are manners part of your value system?
Fourth wife? Does anybody know if he has more wives than UBL?
Laree #110, you’re right. Many have grabbed the “moral authority” that if the country is not going the direction you believe it should, then you have the authority to sling accusations, sling untruths, call those that oppose you liars, racists, and nativists. Throwing pies and making threats to spit on those that disagree with you is taking a giant step toward something very ugly.
“It should be noted that barrier protection, such as a surgical mask or face shield, will protect against droplet transmission of an infectious disease but will not protect against airborne transmission, to the extent that the disease may be spread in that manner. Each employer should select the combination of PPE that protects employees in their particular workplace. It should also be noted that wearing PPE may be physically burdensome to employees, particularly when the use of PPE is not common practice for the work task.”

Particle transmission
“Some disease-causing germs travel through the air in particles considerably smaller than droplets. These tiny particles remain suspended in the air for extended periods of time and can travel in air currents. If you breathe in an airborne virus, bacterium or other germ, you may become infected and show signs and symptoms of the disease. Tuberculosis and SARS are two infectious diseases usually spread through the air, in both particle and droplet forms.”

I wish to join almeehan in his comment (#3):
“Don’t worry Michelle there are plenty of us who would wipe the spittal off of you but moreso stand between you two so he didn’t have the chance to do it.”
In some states spitting on someone is a chargeable fifth-degree assault offense. And threatening to commit a crime against another person is a terroristic threat. Maybe if Geraldo hadn’t failed out of the Bar he would know this. Hmmm…
Ya want any of us to break his nose again for you, Michelle? :p
jrlingreenbay in #97
and ajmontana a couple of places …
I see you had my back while I was gone …
Thanks to you both for helping me out on the polls thing …
I have been gone all day and just got back and saw Dark Knight’s response to my earlier posting questioning my statement …
I would need to do some searching as you did to respond with the actual numbers … I did not have the numbers off the top of my head which is why I stated it the way I did … but I was sure I recalled the general point correctly … Thanks again
Geraldo, like many of his ilk, put their ethnic group above their country and countrymen. Statistics and reason won’t sway him. More of us need to know and understand all of the costs of mass immigration, legal and illegal, and then VOTE, to win this battle.
I’ld like to meet Geraldo so I could throw a lemon pie in his puss or, even better, give him a knuckle sandwich. What the hell is Roger A at Fox thinking about putting this idiot on the air. It’s unbecoming of Fox. I despise Geraldo !!! He’s one of the biggest jerks on cable TV, right up there with Keith Oberman. Geraldo would fit right in on MSNBC.
I seem to remember that Geraldo did a lot of bragging about his children and, especially, his daughter. What would he do if someone threatened his daughter the same way he did Michelle? Or, his wife. Was that my imagination or am I confusing it with another on FOX?
Don’t know why BO, HC, and other Fox shows continue inviting him. I always DVR FF past any Geraldo segments.
I guess he improves ratings, especially when an adversary is a fellow guest.
Ban the man!
Little G is just bummed because Michelle is brighter than he and doesn’t bow down and kiss his behind.
If anyone threatened his family of females, unless it’s him, he’d do some serious damage.
FOX keeps him because he’s controversial….plain and simple.
O’Reilly is getting weak in the knees…what’s up with him?
The only TRUE conservatives on the airwaves…regularly…are Michelle, Ann Coulter, Mark Levin, Lou Dobbs, and Glenn Beck in MHO….with Tancredo not far behind.
Imagine that group handling the debates and running our country!
What a DREAM TEAM huh?!?!?
You said it, Gayle, Lou is my main cable-news man, he really looks out for us.
Glenn Beck is a plain and simple speaking kind of guy. Appeals to the not so politically astute crowd.
Watch him sometimes! He’s very appealing and down to earth.
Agreed
I wish I had time to watch them all.
Gayle #123 #125, I’ve been converted to watching Glenn Beck (No pun intended) out of sheer desperation to get away from the antics of Shep Smith. I watch Lou Dobbs too. Again, out of desperation to get fresh viewpoint and something that’s been more thoroughly investigated than what FOX and their little ribbon are recycling every hour. Used to love Shep, but every time I see him now all I can remember is his meltdown on the bridge in New Orleans aftr Katrina screaming into the camera about “where is FEMA, where are the rescue units.” The bloody idiot was stranded on the bridge himself, with no escape route available.
TrinityTim,
Would that be Trinity County, CA.
If so, we are neighbors and if, when (we could only hope) Geraldo comes here to salivate on the citizens, it will be a race to see who gets to him first, you or me.
Hang in there, Michelle, you have won the debate and he is just spitting sour grapes.
JP
Sorry but Lou Dobbs, isn’t a Conservative, he is however what Democrats were before the left was hijacked by radicals.
Long enough ago before Democrats became liberals and communists, the left was an ideology you might vehemently disagree with but when the chips were down (WWII) we all loved, preserved and protected our country together.
Now only the right does, the hijacked left wants totalitarianism because America is bad.
The term,Imigrant is for a person who legaly enters our country.(passport)
Ther are NO illegal imigrants.They are Foriegn Invaders.
Speakup #129, you’re right about Dobbs, but he has addressed the issue of outsourcing (long before anyone else had the nerve or cajones to do so) and has kept the pressure on about illegal aliens and how both parties have turned a blind eye for different reasons. At least he’s had the nerve to speak up on a cable network when it wasn’t considered by any other to do so. And, no, I don’t always agree with him but he’s kept the pressure up and the ones speaking out now are late to the dance. Worse, some decided to stay home and not address it at all.
JP #128
I wish. That’s beautiful country up there.
Unfortunately, I retired as a cop in Maryland, about 15 miles up I-95 from D.C. Then we moved to SE FL (hurricance ruined that idea) and have now ended up not too far from Charleston SC where the local cops just arrested the 2 Egytians with the bombs in their trunk.
But, if you hear that “The Coward” is coming your way let me know and I’ll do my best to get there. It’s only a 4 hour flight, give or take.
On the other hand, I am going to NYC in about 8 weeks. Who knows I jight get lucky and bump into him outside of FOX News and “bumping” is something I know how to do.
