(CNSNews.com) - The Media Research Center held its 2011 Gala and DisHonors Awards event this past Saturday. The DisHonors awards recognizes and roasts the liberal medias worst moments, with winners in several different categories and an overall winner with a Quote Of the Year.
In the Obamagasm Award category, the winner was Newsweek Editor Evan Thomas who said, Reagan [at the 1984 D-Day commemoration] was all about America, and you talked about it. Obama is, We are above that now. We're not just parochial, we're not just chauvinistic, we're not just provincial. We stand for something.' I mean, in a way, Obama's standing above the country, above above the world. He's sort of God. He's going to bring all different sides together.
Thomas made the comments while appearing on a June 5th, 2009 broadcast of MSNBCs Hardball program.
In the Im Not A Political Genius, But I Play One On TV Award category, Actor/Director/Activist Rob Reiners comments on a Oct. 22nd, 2010 appearance on the Real Time With Bill Maher program took the DisHonor.
Hitler, by the way, never got more than 33 percent of the vote ever in Germany....He wasnt a majority guy, but he was charismatic, and they were having bad economic times just like we are now. People were out of work, they needed jobs, and a guy came along and rallied the troops. My fear is that the Tea Party gets a charismatic leader, because all theyre selling is fear and anger and thats all Hitler sold: Im angry and I'm frightened and you should hate that guy over there, Reiner said during his appearance.
