I read this editorial by Jack Cafferty and it instantly made me think of the editorial I wrote last week for Pajamas Media. What do you think?

Both the link to Cafferty’s piece and the link that supposed to go to your piece go to the Cafferty piece. But you are right in that they seem awfully similar to each other… Goober! 🙂
But Frank, there is a huge difference in the pieces. Yours was thoughtful and well reasoned. The communist news networks piece could have been written by anyone with a tingley leg for the idiot in the White House.
The one line that struck me was, the one where this sycophant says the *forbidden* boy in the White House leads. Like having concerts, flying around the country, spending trillions on useless garbage, and appearing on comedy shows instead of running the country is leading. Wow communists are stupid.
You misspelled “plagiarism” Feel free to delete this comment.
What is a Jack Cafferty and why should we care what it thinks? Seriously…
Almost word for word!
There is one difference. The Caferty piece was clearly satire while yours was not. At least that was the way I read both of them.
That’s funny, I sent some quotes to some friends and said, “Read this” and then after the quotes, I said, “Pretty standard, sarcastic fare from me, right?” because I’m kind of a sarcastic icehole I write stuff like that occasionally (I know, hard to believe that I’m both sarcastic and an icehole).
Then I told them it was a “journalist” high up in CNN. they all thought it was apropos of this, the funniest end of civilization ever.
Jack — you’re killing me.
I thought the Cafferty piece was boring – no comparison with your well-developed tongue-in-cheek, Frank.
To me the weirdest thing I have read was a review of the movie watchmen, a few weeks back, in the weekend addition of USA Today. Half of the damn article was about how Obama is supposedly a hip comic book fan, and how wonderful that made him. They failed to mention that Obama is probably the comic book guy who spends his whole adult life reading comic books, and never having a real job.
At least Jack Cafferty was staying on topic.
The opinions expressed in this commentary are solely those of Jack Cafferty.
I don’t think he stole it…this disclaimer was at the bottom of Cafferty’s piece. I’m sure his thoughts were his own, not copied from thinking people or dictated by Obama’s staff.
Cafferty’s piece was satire? Wow, and I just thought he had fallen off the wagon again.
They were similar and made the same point, but they were both unique and interesting reads.
Yes Frank, he took your article and removed the sarcasim. Anybody that thinks Obama is doing this well no longer has the credentials in my book to give real political analysis. Cafferty has a point. Just yesterday our illustrious President nominated a propaganda Czar… er, I mean a culture secratary. That’s wayyyy more important then nominating any one for the 18 un filled positions at the Treasury. Leaders don’t think, they react. That is exactly what Obama is doing.
What the F is a Culture Czar anyway? It sound’s pretty gay to me…
Oh, you should so go kick him in the nutz for that !
Cafferty, not Obama.
#16 Why not kick them both in the balls? becuase if you do, your a racist? A commie hater? Afraid of getting it on your shoes?
#15 Culture czar, sounds better than mexican communist indoctrination master.
Clearly doing the work that Americans won’t do.
I’m actually a bit confused; was Cafferty being facetious, or was that really how he feels?
It just seems like it was either a back-handed compliment to Obambi or it was another example of the blind cult leader worship we’ve all seen with this administration.
“Will all his ideas work? Of course not. But if you throw enough stuff at the wall, some of it will stick.”
And that’s admiration for Bambi’s battle plan? To just start “throwing stuff at the wall”? Isn’t that analogous to trying to complete a jigsaw puzzle in the dark?
C’mon; Cafferty can’t be serious…can he?
Cafferty must have a strange taste in his mouth about now. Because if this isn’t meant sarcastically, like your article Frank, then it’s quite the rimjob he just gave bHObama. Send Listerine.
So, according to Jack Cafferty. If the president gets up in the morning and does a lot of things – even if they’re ridiculously stupid things that are destroying people’s futures and the country – he’s a great president and leader. Especially, if he’s having fun doing them.
Wow, I never knew just how much of an idiot Jack Cafferty was.
What do you think?
I think that Jack Cafferty is rather seriously brain-damaged.
How the heck did you copy Jack’s article when it was written a week AFTER yours?
Are you using the numerically coded scrap paper previously locked away in a time capsule at your high school, like Nick Cage did in that movie I won’t see until it comes out on DVD? Or have you put the T-shirt model into a tank of warm water, to use her as a precogniscient amanuensis like Tom Cruise in that other movie I rented long after its original release?
