Florida Journalist Speaks His Own ‘Truth’ to Those Out of Power
by Capitol ConfidentialSome items need little comment. The email below, from a reporter of the Key News in Florida, speaks volumes about the mainstream media’s outlook on the political issues of the day. It is hard to know where to begin in dissecting this e-mail. Our personal favorite is the sense that, because Obama’s policies are so “needed” by the country, we can’t possibly brook any dissent. Journalists have been laid-off across the country, because of the media’s broken business model. Surely, the Key News can recruit a less-biased reporter. We have reached out to Mr. Guerra for his version of events. No comment yet, but we will keep you posted if we hear anything.

This is rich – Obama's college thesis. Also, he only allowed the reporter to read the first 10 pages. Gee, I wonder why??
http://www.thefoxnation.com/politics/2009/10/23/obama-co...
Who is Obama, how is that this man gets elected and there is no real information out there about him?
"That CANNOT be real!" (said in a John McEnroe voice).
Is he parodying himself, or is he serious? He has at least had the decency to provide us with an affirmative defence ("mentally-ill") as he engages in typical socialist-atheist mix of delusional projection, transference, and displacement.
Sometimes, one has to ask themselves, is any of this real, or is just a Looney Tunes Cartoon. Any moment, I am expecting Elmer Fudd and Porkey Pig to come out dressed in black tie and tails and begin to sing opera.

Because he's black. He's the left's perfect candidate to push their agenda. DUH??
And hell, even Biden himself said so, because he's "clean" and "literate". To which the "politically correct" left media prompty slapped Biden on the wrist for saying that. Hide the truth at whatever cost is their motto.
Yeah, we wish! Hang in there Cowboy.
Speaking of real, and cartoons.
Has anyone thought about "A.O."? (After Obama)

Pardon the language in it, but it is really funny at the very end……….
Wow. I was totally unprepared for that. Hitting "Full Screen" with that document on an Apple 23" Cinema HD Display is nearly a religious experience. I had a comment in mind, but it was blown out of my skull by that gargantuan image.
I think I'll make some coffee and return later.
wow! a dumb reporter? what's new? Well, yes we want O to fail? Why (I'm not a republican)? Because his success his death to the greatest country on earth. I have to LIVE here, and I prefer not to live in Banana Republic.
Here's to hoping that the Obama Administration is to our freedom what the Coyote was to the Road Runner.
SICK!
Cowboy that was great, thanks for the good laugh
DOWN with MAIN STREAM MEDIA!
Please come help us build News Our Way

Key News? Key West had not one, but two Air America stations. It is very far to the left because all the inhabitance think they have to be because everyone else they know is.
Cowboy UP!
LOL!!!
EVERYBODY needs to watch this video.
US crazy conspiracy theorists? The ones with the tinfoil tri-cornered hats? According to this video, WE, are not nuts. It appears WE, were right.
http://rebuildtheparty.ning.com/forum/topics/gold...
Now what are people going to do about it?
That video, is one in a series of fourteen, I would reccomend EVERYONE take the time and watch all fourteen of them. It is information you should arm yourself with. WE are under attack.

John Guerra is a reporter? Mr. Guerra isn't a reporter, he's an activist. Just one look at his comments in the e-mail easily tell me that. No wonder I stopped reading news that comes out of local papers years ago.
I remember as a teenager watching the outstanding miniseries on PBS called “I Claudius”. For those younger than myself this series was about the life and times of the Roman Emperor Claudius. During his lifetime he was witness to some of the worst debauchery of the Roman Empire and as Emperor was guilty of much of the same corruption. Towards the end of his life he was aware that his wife was trying to poison him to put her son Nero in his place. Finally after tiring of his life and all the ugliness of it, he willfully ate the poison while thinking “Let all the poisons that lurk in the mud hatch out” In other words he was done with trying to protect the corrupt Roman empire and was going to let it go to heck in a handbasket which is exactly what happened under Nero. The willful abandoning of journalistic ethics by the MSM strikes me as similiar. It’s as if they think that America needs to be destroyed to achieve what they think of as fairness. I cannot come up with any other explanation for their blindness as regards Obama. This man represents the most dangerous threat to the American way of life that I’ve ever heard of. There is NO WAY that the MSM doesn’t know this. Reading the email above by this lefty loon I am struck with how religious this appears to be. It’s as if Obama is his god, not just an elected president. It’s time for those still employed in the MSM to stand up, and stand against these Chicago thug policies otherwise all the poisons that lurk in the mud will hatch out. Ask yourself MSM, do you really want Emperor Obama?
This sure sounds like incitement to violence & should be looked into by brother Holder.
It's pretty clear the talking points went out after the big press pow wow with The Naked Emperor's shills.
2.5 hours with Olberdouche & the rest of the hate spewing, predictable left in a White House strategy meeting… and a 20 min photo op on The World Apology Tourjet (aka Air Force One)?
No problem with priorities on the left. None at all.
20 minutes for the AfPak commander, that is…
So do we now have enough for an impeachment? He swore to defend the constitution but you cannot defend that which you attack, that you do not respect, that you despise. He therefore is not true to his oath. Is this perjury before the fact? I do not know if there is a term for this or a legal precedent to swear to do something knowing that you will do the opposite. It's time for the chief justice to really determine if BHO was really sworn in legally.
Many of us are even kind of hoping for Elmer Fudd to show up.
Eh, let's keep this cartoon playing for awhile longer. There are certain politicians who should have a 16 Ton weight dropped on them…
It is very odd how this works. There are many "free spirited" people in Key West. It is a mishmash of hippies, dropouts, fishermen, and a heavy dose of homosexuals.
What I don't understand about homosexuals in particular is that they only get to practice their lifestyle openly thanks to our free society. While conservatives and libertarians alike might impose some civil society impositions on them (and all of us), like "no sex in public"… etc.
Fascist regimes mostly just execute and imprison them. What do these misguided souls think will happen to them when the republic slides of the commie cliff? How will the death panels rule on their high risk lifestyles? How will they be viewed relative to the "model" citizenry. Studies have shown that most homosexual "couples" are rather well off in financial terms, why are they willing to give their hard earned money to the feds? Seems like they are all signing up for diminished liberty and too stupid to think 5 steps ahead and see how this movie is going to end…
Well there it is, I said it. As I am already a racist for despising barry-oh's communist regimens I guess I am a homophobe now also!
"… the Constitution allows for many things, but what it does not allow is the most revealing. The so-called Founders did not allow for economic freedom. While political freedom is supposedly a cornerstone of the document, the distribution of wealth is not even mentioned. While many believed that the new Constitution gave them liberty, it instead fitted them with the shackles of hypocrisy."
WOW! If ever someone should be in an insane asylum…
Since the "journalist" hasn't responded, why not contact the editor and seek a comment about his employee's bias-free reporting?
I'd love to hear his explanation for why right wing nuts want to see him killed.
My biggest fear is that this incompetent Mao race hustler does get killed. No need to call him Hitler-lite anymore now thanks to Anita Dun we can refer to him as M.a.o. or My Aching Obama.
Why on earth would the right wing want this guy dead, he's the best advocate for everything that is wrong with the Communist/Socialist/Fascist/Democrat Party. Since bringing things into focus for Democrats requires a lot of crayons, what could be better than a living breathing example of incompetence. The last thing that I want to see is someone assassinate this president or any other…which buy the way it's usually the lefties that do the shooting.
Well worth not only watching but also sending to your friends who may not have found this site yet.
We live in a scary time, we have to stand up sounds like a cliché now but it is true. Thanks for the link.
I work in a newsroom and get tons of press releases from all different political viewpoints. Never once would I consider responding to one. How biased and unprofessional can you be. We have strict rules where I work about tipping your political leanings. Mr. Guerra would end up fired if he worked where I do.
Get Obama killed? Are you kidding?
Joe Biden is the best insurance Obama has against such a thing ever happening!
Just keep in mind…. Jimmy Carter brought us Ronald Reagan.
Stand fast!

Meanwhile, John Guerra says no bias here! LOL
Apparently being a moron is not restricted to the Oval Office…nowadays, it also appears to be a prerequisite for a job in journalism. Jeeeeez-Louise, we're in deep doo-doo.
Because they probably agree with him.
all i want is a shooting war between the real americans and the a$$holes in the white house and congress.
I just have one thing to say. A man named Connie is just not right. :p
-From a female named Connie
This is too complex for the liberal mind to understand. They deal with only personal attacks, twisted logic, threats, bribes, and lies.
I agree that the the commentary about Obama is outrageous. Cearly I don't believe conservatives want any harm to come to Obama at all.
However, the democrats set the tone the last 8 years. The commentary about Obama is kind comapred to how liberals treated W and his entire family. They created the level of discourse. They have no one else to blame but themselves.
I could almost be more reasonable had they did what W when he was elected. He refused to blame anyone for his problems. W didn't constantly blame his predecessor. He didn't attack Clinton. In fact he urged restraint. Obama has continuously accused his predecessor of all kinds of not just wrong, incompetent but illegal conduct. Obama doesn't deserve the respect that his office should get.
BE vewy vewy quiet, I'm hunting social injstice. Huh huh huh huh.
"Journalism" is dead in this country.. UNFUGGINBELIEVABLE
John Guerra's Editor's email address is below – write him or any of Guerra's superiors (http://keysnews.com/contact) a short note to voice your concern about such hateful accusations. There are plenty of quality journalists looking for a job, who are clearly much more qualified than this individual.

Fudd would be a better opera singer than Obama is as President.
Heck, so would Daffy Duck!
E-Mail the publisher, they provide the $'s, right?
Speaking of mentally ill!!! What a whack job.
No, because you're white and you can no longer push your agenda.
Because you're so "dirty" and "illiterate." Ignore the truth at whatever cost is your motto.
Sounds ridiculous, doesn't it?
The world was put here by God, right? Just for you to use on your way to heaven.
Get over yourself, and pull your head out of the sand.
If the Mainstream Media whines in the forest when there is nobody there to hear it, does their whining really exist?
Who was it that talked about Clarence Thomas dying of a heart-attack ? Who was it that thought about Rush Limbaugh doing a Yaphet Koto? Who laughed about George Bush being assassinated? Who was it, on the House Floor, that accused Republicans of wanting Americans to die, and quickly? Who is it that sees the murder of 40 million American babies as a positive good?
And so on, and so forth.

I just called and spoke with the editor, Tom Tuell. He said "I was the only 'nut job' who has called so far" and "that since the reporter doesn't cover national politics, what he said is fine"…
Any one else feel like giveing him a ring?
I am Gay and I agree with you.
That's okay. I'm sure the liberal Mr. Guerra was screaming just as loudly during all those films, books, art exhibits, tee shirts and other Bush assassination chic that were rampant for the last eight years.
/off sarcasm. Boy! They sure can dish it out, but they can't take it, huh?
You're gonna have the SS at you door for that comment.
WOW! ANOTHER stupid liberal. Where's the Queen Lemming squirting these dolts out at?

PROUD to be #189 on Obama's Enemy List with a bullet.
I have found that the Senators and the Representative from my district are not responsive to anything I have to say as a constituent. All I get from them are the same talking points they use on the campaign trail. To my specific questions that I have emailed to them, I might as well be talking to a wall since they don’t even address them in reply. To be called a representative and to display that kind of arrogance is totally unacceptable. I plan to do everything I can to vote them out of office. I hope that many others will do the same thing in their own districts.
Mr. Guerra's comments reflect just one thing; he's coming to the realization that Obabble will, without direct intervention from God, be a one-trick horse's ass. The longer this clown is in office, the more apparent (and scary) his incredible lack of experience becomes. Indecision and forcing unrealistic and unwanted policies down the throats of Americans is NOT governing.
"Cmon Johnnie (Guerra)!! Keep up with the other children. Ready?"
"Mmmmm Mmmmm Mmmmm Barack Hussein Obama Mmmmmm Mmmmmm Mmmmmm…"
IMPEACH OBAMA! But it''ll have to wait until we retake the Congress/Senate in 2010.

In addition, barry-ohs untimely demise would most certainly trigger a well publicized need for martial law and suspension of what's left of civil liberties…
Those who have dealt with the mentally ill are very familiar with the "surreal" feeling. Especially with very high operating (intelligent) individuals with mental illness. They paint a picture of their world and keep reinforcing it verbally till the "target" believes it: initial reception is no way proceeding to this can't be real… to believing the painted picture.
I think most politicians have at least narcissistic tendencies, if they are not full out narcissists. Lying and "believing" (I am not sure if he believes or if he is a REALLY good con man in Obama's case) is a sign of a severe break with reality and could point to deeper issues. Clinton had very similar behavior as well… am not sure about previous presidents as they were before my time.
Not that both sides engage in this type of self worship. Some commentators on both side have similar behavior as well. Whether they call it there "persona"; people rarely excel at presenting a person that is much different then there actual self
Just another J-school know-nothing taught by Professors that have never done anything.
There really is very little to talk about anymore. Let's just get it on and get it over with already.
That's what they want too. Then they can impose martial law and suspend the next election, or at the very least, have it monitored by the UN.
At least she said please.
Liberalism, as GK Chesterson has said, is a philosophy with both feet planted firmly in the air. When confronted with the fact that all their premises are wrong, liberals simply flip out.
So I'm guessing Johnny Boy isn't going to report on Mr. Mack's comments, as it's probably his job to do? If not, start forwarding these email press statements to me. I'm sure I can do his job and mine, without all the toxic bias or refusal to report on statements I don't like. It shouldn't take more than a few hours per week given the level of professionalism that Mr. Guerra brings to the task. Start forwarding his measly $1000 per week too.
What rock do these people keep crawling out from? This reporter needs to understand "projection" which is the word all these libs need to look up the meaning of. Put this crap on their shoes and this is really how they feel about anyone that disagrees with their absolute opinion. This is just another know it all who thinks there isn't any American that is capable of having better sense than their extreme opinions.
All words used to put one on their heels – similar to calling someone a racist, applying a conspiracy spew that someone is going to do something against our Republic – which most good Americans never want that peg on them is nothing short of bullying and projection. Liberal adolescent is redundant.
I think it is far to say that we will have more enjoyment seeing the POTUS' face when he loses his reelection bid.
We will enjoy the day when we put everyone on trial in the government who fleeced and defrauded the taxpayer, violated the constitution and acted in breech of contract as a fiduciary representation. These clowns should be worried about the 17% unemployment – 50% of young males – look at history.
Lastly, these people will eat you up if you keep giving them berth. Don't let them define you – because they will continue to take you out of the game.
Wow, a shining light for non-partisan journalism. The New York Times will be calling with a job offer.
John Guerra is obviously engaging in the sort of projection that unbalanced liberals (a redundancy I know) seem to specialize in. Has this knucklehead ever read the Constitution? Doubtful.
As a libertarian I don't believe in Obama's policies… but I think you are very much misusing the term "Banana Republic" . How again do Obama's policies turn the US into a banana republic?
Given that our government has been eroding our freedoms for years with unending regulatory legislation, reaping taxes far above those required in support of the common defense and general welfare, and exercising other powers in excess of those granted under the Constitution, I think it is beyond time that those gifted producers of our country's wealth and prosperity took Ayn Rand's advice. ATLAS SHOULD SHRUG!
Aren't reporters supposed to be good writers? This guy writes like a journalism student who barely passed with a C average.
I have no desire to see Obama killed; I want to see video of he and Michele being finally and forever locked up in a cell in Gitmo, along with Holder, Axelrod, Dunn, Jones, Emanuel, and Gibbs all locked in their own cells. Then I want Drudge to run a giant headline that says, "Lady Justice Speaks, Team Obama Silenced."
So, then any mentally stable reasonable citizen should alert police this massive conspiracy, shouldn't they? If the concerned citizen doesn't do his/her duty to do this, then the citizen(s) should be taken into custody to be questioned. The concerned journalist should be taken into to question to show evidence. They should bring in Obama Thugs to be questioned if they received massive threats. Rahm Emanuel isn't doing his job to protect the second black president. Perhaps FBI & Security Service is not doing the job right. We should bail them out. We should fund additional $1 Trillion to protect the Obamas. Besides, what's another TRILLION between Obama and us? While we are at it, about a TRILLION for me and my family who need protection from Obama/Pelosi takeover of our finance and Health Care? I need more than the guy next door. I know I'm poorer because my car is 7 years old, and he's driving a brand new Mercedes which was financed by Cash for Clunker program with Adjustable 4% interest which will go up soon so he needs another bail out, meanwhile he refinanced with Obama Rescue Plan @ 5% Adjustable APR, so it will go up with interest rate adjustment, so he'll need Second Stimulus Bail Out for homeowner. I don't have a house. I'm renting. Does anybody know if Obama is rescuing apartment renters, like 2009 Apartment Renters Rescue Stimulus Package?
Did a quick google search and found Mr. Guerra's email – jguerra@keysnews.com. Let hom know what a jacka** he is.
No, most repubs know how flawed mr. Obama’s policies are and are hoping to minimize the damage before he is voted out. We’re perfectly happy leaving him out of power and bitter for avery long retirement like Carter.
Fail? Yes, while we still have a country. Die? No, i couldn't stand another statue in my park or another highway or road or school named after a dead black man (in this case a half man). So, keep living just to remind everyone what a dolt he is.
Watch out that the left doesn't snuff the Empty Suit to advance their revolution. These people are rabid, staying in power is everything.
I agree, let this ship of fools run themselves aground. It's a death by a thousand misguided paper cuts that the Dems are inflicting on this country. Eventually the blood loss hits a tipping point. Drudge can't even keep up linking the daily nonsense. You've got to believe that at some point the sane and reasonable among our citizens will eventually have had enough.
[...] JOURNALIST: GOP ‘MENTALLY ILL GROUP’; GETTING OBAMA KILLED ‘UNDERLYING GOAL’… Let’s see now a elected illegally POTUS. Then awarded a Nobel Prize for doing absolutely nothing. So the logical next step is to create a ‘FAUX MARTYR’ where none actually exists. (Would you put it past the Left to bump off their own man in order to create such a ‘FAUX MARTYR’? I sure as hell wouldn’t) [...]
and i see we continue to use the term "journalist" quite loosely. Mr. Guerra is clearly another shining example of "journalistic" objectivity that we have grown to know and love in the media formerly known as main stream.
Though i unabashedly have a more than strong distaste for President Obama's agenda and policies, i always include him and the Secret Service in my prayers. Having the president harmed would have disastrous consequences.
The worst part about what he said is that the democrats in congress want people to believe that republicans want the president to he harmed. There are saying and doing anything to try to push their agenda even if the voters dont want it.
Is this guy serious? Like seriously, is he? I think the Secret Service should investigate this f^#$er for implying an assassination. What a moron. Im not a Rep. or a Dem, but this is just all becoming too f%$^in much I am sick of the partisanship and the crast Sh!7 comin from some of these idiots mouths. What a douschebag.
Freudian Projection
If killing was the ultimate goal it would have been done already.
I guess this was just like liberals wanted to destroy Bush no matter what.
News flash Mr. Guerra … As a conservative I don't want another holiday celebrating another communist sympathizer either
.
Maybe someone over at the http://www.sun-sentinel.com/ would enjoy a scoop on this story?
"Also, he only allowed the reporter to read the first 10 pages. Gee, I wonder why?? "
Well, obviously either the ink wasn't dry on it yet or that's all Bill Ayers has given him so far.
I fear that too. However, leftists always assume that there is a head that needs cut off while conservatives and libertarians realize that the REAL problem/power (same difference since the unconstitutional exercise of power is the problem) lies in Congress. I keep expecting to see Congressional assassinations on the news any day, certainly not hoping, but expecting it nonetheless.
I wish we could give them all a 12mo recess/carribean vacation so that we could get back to our regularly scheduled lives.
Stories like this are enough to give me the impression that David Duke has secretly bought a controlling interest in the entire MSM and is rewriting the stories to make PC types look like hysterical idiots.
Let's hope these PC hysterics keep it up. They are doing a far better job of making the Democrats look bad than the invertebrate Republicans could ever hope to do.
[...] Big Government Blog Archive Florida Journalist Speaks His Own “Truth” to Those Out of Po… hoooo boy __________________ [...]
What goes around comes around. Besides, the Dems aren't long for this world anyway. Just imagine how Obama is going to feel when he has to deal with a Republican House.
I wish I could say this is unbelievable but I'm surprised by nothing at this point.
I cannot wait for the current administration to be in the history books but I absolutely do not want anything to happen to BO. I don't advocate harm to anyone regardless of their personal beliefs. I would hate to think of the unrest that such an event would cause. It would also propel BO to a more god-like status than he already holds with so many of his supporters. I have a friend who literally has a vanity license plate that read "OH! BAMA". – We don't discuss politics.
Please God – help us get to 2010 as intact as possible and then have a solid conservative candidate for 2012.
Does he know something about a plot against the President? I think the Secret Service should call on him to see what he knows. Unless of course, they think he is just a complete idiot like most of us do.
I'd bet you're wrong unless you're working for the Heritage Foundation newsletter or something.
If you're a lefty, you're in the club. That's why they feel bold enough to do this kind of garbage. And do you really think this kind of rabid conspiracy theory fanatacism doesn't seep into the writing? How do you think we know they're all lefties? It's plainly evident from the slant in the all the articles and the selection of what articles to print.
Here's his email
jguerra@keysnews.com
LOL!
All I can say is "huh?" You can't believe the conservative? Ok, fine. THEN BELIEVE BARNEY FRANK AND THE TIDES FOUNDATION GUY THAT WROTE THE BILL.
I think Mr. Guerra is too blinded by his hatred to even think rationally.
