Liberal tolerance: CNN’s Don Lemon berated for saying the buck stops with Obama

CNN anchor Don Lemon caught hell from the oh-so-tolerant Left late Monday night for daring to deviate from the DNC script.

Lemon’s crime? He asked President Obama to stop shifting blame and start taking responsibility for everything that happens on his watch, including the GSA and Secret Service scandals. Even worse? He said Sarah Palin had a point about presidential accountability.

Oops. Apparently he forgot that his job is to step in front of the camera and screech, “Blaaaaame Buuuuuuush!”

@donlemoncnn If you think the Right will make you their Pet Gay, they won't. Obama is standing up 4 U & don't forget who you are.

@theosmelek @Lezlie61 @DonLemonCNN He's a black gay man and a RW tool for a buck. His boyfriend is a CNN higher up too.

RT @maddyjrbrown: @donlemoncnn you just proved that CNN is the alter ego of Fox news. You sound like GOP talking points #NoTalkPoints

@donlemoncnn Little Gay kids are committing suicide because of the Right Wing. You could make an impact. You're a wimp.

@donlemoncnn I don't care how good your new nose jobs is, you should dance with the ones who brought you.

@donlemoncnn anyone who says "Sarah Palin has a point" loses all credibility – – didn't she say he's a part of lame stream media?

Lemon responded to the attacks on Twitter:

Wow. Checking twitter for 1st time 2day. Getting praise from the right & hate from the left for #NoTalkingPoints. Can't win. Ha!

.@Rictracee. @cnn doesn't tell me to do anything. I have a brain & am an independent thinker. Sometimes the truth hurts.

— Don Lemon (@donlemon) April 24, 2012

.@maddyjrbrown not really. Just saying what democrats don't want to but need to hear. #CNN appreciates independent thinking.

. @cfreelakers24 Funny how I'm only incompetent when I don't say what liberals want to hear. Hmmm.

— Don Lemon (@donlemon) April 24, 2012

.@maddyjrbrown he is the president & the buck stops w him. That's what was said of bush. Can't change the rules for obama. #hypocrisy

Hmm. Guess liberals aren’t all about open-mindedness, freedom of expression, and tolerance when someone has the nerve to say the wrong thing. Fancy that.
