Watch the video below. It's a hoot, like something out of an "SNL" skit mocking CNN's embarrassingly low-rated Soledad O'Brien as exactly what she is: a bubbled White House shill fooling no one but herself.
Wayne LaPierre is the Executive Vice President of the wildly popular National Rifle Association. Obviously, O'Brien asked him on to discuss Fast and Furious, Obama's assertion of executive privilege, and the possibility of a Congressional contempt order against Attorney General Eric Holder.
As you can see in the clip, unlike O'Brien, LaPierre is educated on this story, in command of the facts, and expresses his opinion of all that is happening at length, respectfully and with specifics.
So after LaPierre is done with a couple of extensive and detailed statements, this is O'Brien's hilariously biased and clueless summation of what she just heard:
So because the Attorney general does not support gun rights in the way you support gun rights, you believe he should be held in contempt…
What!!??
I'm surprised she didn’t end it by robotically stating…

…and then short circuit.
LaPierre was talking about a gun-running operation gone tragically wrong; that resulted in the death of Border Agent Brian Terry and countless innocent Mexican citizens (that the media cares nothing about). LaPierre was talking about a cover-up and lies and incompetence and a deeply cynical plan to intentionally use this operation to demonize honest gun-dealers in order to scare America into accepting gun control.
But once again, here is Soledad's utterly inane summation of all that:
So because the Attorney general does not support gun rights in the way you support gun rights, you believe he should be held in contempt…
CNN is swirling the drain thanks to moments exactly like this; where left and right come together to laugh out loud at the clown car that unloads daily day on this network.
The most trusted name in news? On what planet.
