If the garbage can fits...
...stuff David Horowitz in it. His "Campus Crusade for Fascism" is so over.
I'm guessing his real objection to this 'toon is that it's too accurate.

Ring-ring. Osama calling. Yeah, so I'm dead. So what? If you could resurrect a bunch of shitty Danish 'toons in time for the Prophet Mohammed's birthday, I guess I can come back from Hades to haunt you and taunt you.
And pay no attention to the fact that this bit of blatant scaremongering comes right in time for the fifth anniversary of Operation Royal Fuckup. Which, BTW, is STILL based on a pack of lies...
Booga, booga, booga.
Okay, you wingnuts--you screamed about Muslims protesting against inflammatory 'toons in Denmark. Where's your outrage over this? Last Sunday, the YouTube videos all over the Internets went dark, and nobody said boo...and now we know why:
Pakistan has blocked access to the popular YouTube website because of content deemed offensive to Islam.Its telecommunications authority ordered internet service providers to block the site until further notice.
Reports said the content included Danish cartoons depicting the Prophet Muhammad that have outraged many.
But one report said a trailer for a forthcoming film by Dutch lawmaker Geert Wilders, which portrays Islam in a negative light, was behind the ban.
"They asked us to ban it immediately... and the order says the ban will continue until further notice," said Wahaj-us-Siraj, convener of the Association of Pakistan Internet Service Providers.
Hmmm. I guess the reason for this strangely selective lack of outrage is over the fact that Pervez Musharraf, who is STILL, er, "president" of Pakistan, is the one behind all this. And since he's Dubya's good buddy, of course anything he does is all right. After all, Pakistan is Teh Bestest Democracy Evah!
And besides, the Muslims in Denmark only protested. They didn't actually censor anything. Everybody knows that dissent, not censorship, is the real evil! When in Denmark, your duty is to conform to the American global standard, Citizen!
Now, for another round of "look how brave we are, fighting Islamofascism with IslamoBASHism!" Coming soon to a wingnut site near you...
Once again, I am in awe of Tom Tomorrow. He sure knows how to hit Alan "Ayn Rand's Little Disciple" Greenspan where it counts.
One question for you, Mr. G: Why did you not say it was all about oil back when something could still be done to stop this train wreck? Oh wait, I guess that would have something to do with the evils of regulating capitalism, which should just be free to run unfettered and roughshod all over fucking everything. I guess that ideology tied your First Amendment's tongue. In other words, a false and illusory freedom trumped a genuine one. Now it makes sense...
Actually, here's another, just for good measure: If you're so libertarian (and libertarians are, according to their own prattle, so individualistic), why did you sell your soul to the L. Ron Hubbard of political philosophy? Seems such a collectivist thing to do.
And, in light of the job you just left, rather dangerous to boot.
I hear he also knows where D.B. Cooper and all his money landed. Torture him some more!
Blah, blah blah...
That, Gentle Reader, is the sound of the mainstream media in the US, talking a lot and not actually saying anything. For the last five years, it's been doing nothing but that on one particular day when it owes the public so much more than just some obligatory annual orgy of grief and remembrance with an unholy admixture of misplaced patriotism.

Considering how the Hardcore Stupid think Bush never wavers, he sure has switched bogus rationales for his war a lot.
And so have the Hardcore Stupid!
