KEITH FITZGERALD, ROSATO, AND SELECTIVE OUTRAGE

KEITH FITZGERALD AND ANA MARIA ROSATO

Ana Maria Rosato is the former spokesperson for the Keith Fitzgerald Campaign for Congress.  She recently resigned her very visible position after her potty mouth become know to the general public.  Her vulgar vitriolic postings are not an isolated incident among the liberal fringe of the Democratic Party.  Every Democrat from the president to Keith Fitzgerald had a predictable fur-ball over Rush Limbaugh's description of Sandra Fluke as a slut.  Yet no one from the president down to Keith Fitzgerald ever mentioned Ed Schultz of MSNBC when he aired the following statement on The Ed Schulz show radio air date, May 23, 2011.

“And what are the Republicans thinking about? They're not thinking about their next-door neighbor. They're just thinking about how much this is going to cost. President Obama is going to be visiting Joplin, Missouri, on Sunday. But you know what they're talking about? Like this right-wing slut, what's her name, Laura Ingraham? Yeah, she's a talk slut.”

This one hit home since Laura was a student at Glastonbury High School in CT during my first teaching assignment.  The Dartmouth grad received a JD before becoming one of the most brilliant political commentators on cable.  At least Schultz was suspended without pay by MSNBC.  And what happened in the liberal blogosphere?  Nothing.

Democratic consultant Kirsten Powers has penned two articles about über liberal Bill Maher when he posited “that the real name of then-20-year-old Bristol Palin’s book should be ‘Whoops, There’s a Dick in Me?’ ” Keith Fitzgerald was too busy sending roses to his union handlers to respond to Maher. 

And of course, President Obama has declined to condemn TV comedian Bill Maher for calling former Alaskan Governor Sarah Palin a “c*nt” during a live show in Dallas, Texas.  Really?  The president pleads that in criticizing Limbaugh he’s protecting his daughters from Rush Limbaugh’s big stumbling mouth calling a law student a slut but the president then at the same press conference refuses to protect Mrs. Palin when she is addressed as a c*nt.  Obviously, the president really is more interested in the $1 million dollars Bill Maher contributed to a friendly super-pac rather than women who might disagree with him politically.  To date, Keith Fitzgerald has not issued any public condemnation of Bill Maher.  Yet, he brings in Sandra Fluke to Sarasota and hires a rabid feminist as his contact with the general public. 

Ana Maria Rosato, Keith Fitzgerald, Sandra Fluke, and Barack Obama, all use outrage selectively.  It’s time to send Mr. Fitzgerald and President Obama a message!
