The Great Miscommunicator

Obama said what? Up from atheism. Libertarians and kiddie porn. Plus more.

(Page 6 of 13)

(4) "This should keep The Daily Show busy for days." No doubt about that. Keith Olbermann already has had a field day with this, but hey, the right has Rush Limbaugh (and Ann Coulter, Laura Ingraham, Michelle Malkin et. al.) and the left has Keith (and Al Franken, etc. etc.) Nobody reads or listens to these people for objective, sober, nuanced analysis delivered in soft voice. They listen because they enjoy seeing and hearing their ideological opponents held up in contempt, scorned and denigrated in elegant vitriolic language. And, lets be honest; they really do enjoy this. If it weren't so divisive and antithetical to a healthy body politic, I would be inclined to quote Larry the Cable Guy concerning this whole spectacle: "Now that's funny." Perhaps, we should be quoting Larry's other famous line: "Lord, I apologize for that."

p>A final point. Karl Rove suggested that Mr. McClellan was purposely kept out of the loop concerning the plans of the administration. If this was the case, why shouldn't we think that all other press secretaries have also been left out of the loop? And why should we give any credibility to anything said by the president's press secretary? br> -- Mike Roush /p> p> Best dissection of this non-event I've read yet. You nailed it. br> -- Laney Bormel br> Maryland /p> p> THE LOVED ONE br> Re: Christopher Orlet's Creative Class Blues
