Those Krazy Klowns at the Kaledonian Record at it again....

When reading the Caledonian Record for a laugh (which is the only other function I can find for it other than wrapping fish or lining a birdcage), I am often astounded at the sheer idiocy of the writers of the editorial page. Perhaps they really don't think much of the intelligence of their readers, for just about every editorial parrots the same, discredited right-wingnut talking points. Zero fact-checking, and zero originality, really no different than what you'd read on some typical angry victimized white Christian male joe-shmoe wingnut blog (this guy really feels a lot of sympathy for poor Don Imus, if that tells you anything).

Today, it's Is Nancy Pelosi Guilty Of A Felony? Typical hit piece like the one CNN has been pushing all week regarding Pelosi's trip to Syria. And, as usual, no mention of  Congressman Darrel Issa (R-CA), in Syria right now. And also conveniently forgotten were Reps. Frank Wolf (R-VA), Joseph R. Pitts (R-PA) and Robert Aderholt (R-AL) who were in Syria 2 days before Pelosi. Also, no mention of then House Speaker and sweaty wrestling coach Dennis Hastert's 1997 trip to Columbia, in which he  encouraged Colombian military officials to "bypass the U.S. executive branch and communicate directly with Congress."

I've mentioned numerous times about Univ. of Manitoba's Bob Altemeyer's work on the 'authoritarian personality'. If you read chapter 3 of his excellent free e-book, "The Authoritarians", which is about how right-wing authoritarians think, a major attribute is the 'double standard', which is something the fools at the C.R. have gotten down to an art form.

Now, not like they care what us crazy moonbats think, but if you feel so inclined, give them a call at (800) 523-6397 or write them here and ask them if they feel that those Republican congressmen mentioned above (and Hastert) should be charged with treason as they say Pelosi should be.

I wondered if you would notice that. They had another one on Monday about Pelosi & the headscarf.  I resist the urge o respond to them knowing it to be a lost cause.  I always wonder that these 'editorials' aren't signed by Darth Cheney himself.

Factually inaccurate is charitable.

I wonder if they got pissed when Laura Bush wore a headscarf to a mosque a while back.

Heaven forbid if we show any respect to other cultures, with us being the best, of course.

You can read JD's latest at five before chaos. But why would you do something silly like that?

Facts that contradict the opinion need not apply. Now or ever.

This is a weak title that does a disserves to our black brothers.  To equate this to those loony white hooded boobs is to not fully understand how evil that group is.

I wasn't thinking of the KKK when I did that.. More like the Keystone Kops, equally as stupid...

He's a redstate.com concern troll. Email me for the links if you want.

Yeah, I know (0.00 / 0)
His 'concern' for Jon Anderson gave that away.
