Thin-Skinned Idiots
Apparently a bunch of leftists haven gotten a website together to target the advertisers running ads during Chris Matthews' Hardball program. Why? Because Matthews suggested that Osama bin Laden's recent communications have sounded an awful like like the type of rhetoric we here from Michael Moore.
Of course, the fact that Michael Moore once said himself that Osama bin Laden's words sound an awful lot like his own is completely lost on these people.
Really, though, I'm not sure why the left is expecting anyone to care about this. After all, for the last five years we've heard nothing but endless comparisons of President Bush and his administration members to terrorists, Nazis, Hitler, etc. Matthews was right, but if these people think they're going to claim the moral high ground on this issue they've got another thing going.
I mean, how about some outrage for Hillary Clinton, who recently appeared at a fundraiser with Harry Belafonte just days after that man called our President the "greatest terrorist in the world?" Hillary is a U.S. Senator for crying out loud, and she lent her tacit support to Belafonte by appearing at a fundraiser with him without so much as a word of criticism for his over-the-top comments.
But I guess that's how it works for many on the left. Moore doesn't really sound like Osama bin Laden because that isn't convenient for their political views, but Harry Belafonte's comparisons of Bush to a terrorist is, you know, apt. Because it is convenient for their political views to believe that. Or, at least refuse to acknowledge that big-name people on their side are saying things like that.
