The classical Greek word barbaros means foreigner, and in the eyes of the Greeks and later the Romans, those outside their society and culture were barbaric in the sense of lacking the virtues and sensibilities of civilized people. One such……

That’s right. Phrase of the week – “Blessed be America for giving Mulah Omar a good slap, sending him straight into the garbage bin of history and into the dunghills of oblivion.” Bwahaha! This is, as we say, the part……

This is current. This is the law. When the h*ll is the DOJ going to start prosecuting these enemies of our state?

They’re ignorant of history and clueless about the present.

Other than that, they’re fine reporters.

Cafferty: “I’m confused, Wolf…”

Truer words were never spoken!

Well, he did say that. Which is why I get my information elsewhere. Nice to see such honesty at CNN.

Jack Cafferty, a commentator at CNN, has gone off the rails again. In this video clip, Cafferty assigns a moral equivalence between the US helping Afghan rebels in the 1980s and Iran supporting the Iraqi insurgency….

Why is this man on the airwaves?

The MSM’s obsession with being neutural has caused them to take themselves too seriously. Their egos have overwhelmed their desire to be REAL reporters.

REAL Libertarians understand that illicit drugs do nothing but control and oppress your mind.

Stoners are fools and are mere sheep being herded by stoner peer pressure.

I agree with you about the fools and sheep. I’m a mod at a conservative site. You’d be amazed at how many self-professed “libertarians” believe all drugs should be legal” I have to deal with.

I followed to link to the “comment page” he mentioned. The leftists posting there are supporting Iran. Anybody surprised?

Jeff Smith, who shared the byline for that catastrophically wrong WaPo “Carl Levin’s IG report proves Bush Lied” report, writes a response to a reader: I agree with you that this was an egregious error. I also had nothing to……

What a pair of “useful useless idiots”

True, but it was, after all, an episode of “Meet the Oppressed”. Can you expect anything else?

Mr. Cafferty is competing for the Olbermann standing in the News.

Entelechy on February 12, 2007 at 11:17 PM

I don’t know about that. Olbermann does what he does with obvious intent – Cafferty is just plain stupid.

And to think Libertarians wonder why I’m opposed to legalizing drugs.

OY!

REAL Libertarians understand that illicit drugs do nothing but control and oppress your mind.

Stoners are fools and are mere sheep being herded by stoner peer pressure.

1980s Afghanistan and current Iraq are very different situations. That Jack Cafferty doesn’t know or understand this, and that Wolf Blitzer fails to challenge Cafferty or explain the facts to him, speaks volumes about how those two see and therefore report the world around them. They’re ignorant of history and clueless about the present. Other than that, they’re fine reporters.

And to think Libertarians wonder why I’m opposed to legalizing drugs.

After the correction and also after Jeff Smith’s reply.

Stephen Colbert is teh stoopid.

Wolf, Jack, Do you want the U S to win ?

What a pair of “useful useless idiots”

He reminds me of the guy from the “CIA’s Canada Department” in the John Candy movie: Canadian Bacon.

Michael Moore wrote the script for that movie, in case no one here knew that.
