Since Obowma is “citizen of the world” he feels compelled to offer his citizenry due process in court.

We here in Atlanta have the pleasure of reading Mr. Pitts on occasion when one of the other liberal opinionist are away. We are used to reading crap in the AJC from liberal writers so Pitts fits right in. He usually gets my blood up in about twenty words or less and if the subject has a black/white slant to it I go ballistic. The black side always wins. He writes with opinion and no facts. He is historically inaccurate and doesn’t bother to fact check. In other words he is a common blogger and gets paid for it. Can anyone say affirmative action?

Leonard Pitts is the biggest bleeping moron at the Herald. And that’s saying something, considering that the Herald has a full slate of morons.

Terrorists should not be accorded the same treatment as they are individuals not state entities. They would love to warrant the same status as a government or international players but the fact is that they are just murdering criminals.

That was the Bill Clinton “approach to terror”. It resulted in the Africa embassy bombings, the USS Cole, and last but not least the 9/11 attacks he left for his successor to clean up after. And to cut you off at the pass, never forget that bin Laden originally planned those attacks to take place before Clinton left office.

How Not to Support a Position…

Today’s column by Leonard Pitts isn’t the dumbest thing I’ve ever read, but I can’t think of what is. Lots of people are outraged by the Obama Administration decision to remove Khalid Sheikh Mohammad, et al from the military tribunal……

Pitts illustrates the pitfalls of affirmative action in hiring pundits. If you just have to have one of each approved color, sex, and shape, you can’t be too picky about quality and you end up with an idiot like him.
`
Imagine how much worse it would be to use affirmative action to hire for an important job, like the Presidency. Oh, wait – never mind!

If Pitts can interpret history his way and comment about it his way, even though he is wrong, then I can interpret it my way and comment on it the way I want to. Pitts is an ill informed writer, and has a reading comprehension problem. But someone has hired him for the dummy he is, and intends to use his stupidity in their favor.
Standard practice in news reporting techniques in use today.
What historians and conservatives need to be vigilant for, is these false interpretations being accepted as factual history.
Reading comprehension, logic, and plain common sense has to be applied to everything we read, these days.

Liberals have no use for history. History is an impediment…much like the Constitution.

Er, did Pitts miss the point here by a country mile or what?

I do not know if these folks are not too bright, delusional, or just blinded by their own political beliefs.

Pitts misses most things by a country mile. He’s not the sharpest tool in the shed.

The Nuremburg trials were about 30 years before American juries would accept the “Twinkie Defense”, right? So even back when the civil courts were more trustworthy, it was a military tribunal.

Yep. Have him in my local too. He’s an idiot. Actually he’s a fool. I’m going to bring back that word and it’s original mean. I’m just going to start telling people: ‘You are a fool’ and be done with the conversation.

WAR/LAW: Ignorance of History…

Maybe Pitts should take a little time to learn about history and current law before opining on this topic again.

Oh, Puh-Lease. Why was the last time a liberal had to know anything about anything before shooting off their mouths with blatant stupidity and mindless BS?

Liberals are allergic to actual facts.

theTarCzar on November 24, 2009 at 10:20 AM

If you don’t like the facts, make up your own. Why not, that is what liberals always do. Liars and fools are the backbone of the liberal movement, and they have no problem making “informed decisions” with information other than the facts. That is why their outcomes are almost always a disaster.

Why on earth would a reporter or newspaper do some homework before publishing a story?
