Apology, Shnapology
Now I don't know if it was a specifically a crook or a liar that posted this on Crooks and Liars, and in the broader scheme of things it really doesn't matter, but apparently Chris Matthews, long time leftist mouthpiece, has gone and compared everyone's favorite 9/11 movie mastermind, Michael Moore, to everyone's favorite 9/11 live action mastermind, Osama Bin Laden. OBL's comment that Matthews was comparing to MM, and this is from the BBC's transcript of the tape, was this: There is no defect in this solution other than preventing the flow of hundreds of billions to the influential people and war merchants in America, who supported Bush's election campaign with billions of dollars.Preposterous! I can't imagine words like this coming from MM's lips. Sounds more like something Dean would say and MM would repeat. Mr. Crook or Mr. Liar, (he posts anonymously, coward) waxes hypothetical about the repercussions if the comparison was different. If he compared a conservative figure to Osama what do you think would happen?Umm... you'd be parroting it, selling T-shirts with a direct quote and getting a Chris Matthews tattoo? That's my guess. I can ponder too. What if he compared a sitting American President to a dead WW2-era, narrow mustached, German dictator? What would happen, then? Boy, I wonder. I'm just glad we don't live in a world where idiotic unfair comparisons like that could ever happen. Or what? Mikey will eat him? Why get all defensive about MM anyway? The slam was clearly intended to be against Dialysis boy, not Dying-for-a-twnkie boy. Osama is the one who's being smeared here. If anything, I think OBL deserves an apology too. At least Osama has offered another truce, that's more than I can say for Mikey. |
