Power Line: "Aiding and Abetting the Enemy": Today's game is mental limbo. How low can you go? Our first contestant is John Hinderaker of Powerline. "I think that the press's undermining of our war effort is, in many instances, deliberate. It appears to me that many, if not most, American reporters, editors and news executives want to make it impossible for America ever to fight a war. To further this goal, I think they use their reporting to undermine our effort in Iraq. The idea is that if we are defeated in Iraq, it will be difficult, if not impossible, for us to fight another war anywhere for a generation. Is this assessment too harsh? I don't think so." Wow, did you see that people? His shoulders were nearly on the ground as he reached new lows in paranoid delusion. Wait! We have some discussion amongst the judges... It seems that Mr. Powerline has used an illegal maneuver. Blaming the press for everything that is wrong with the world was banned as a valid debating technique in the 1970's. It seems that John Hinderaker will have to find another way to go as low as he has today. Some spectators are mumbling, suggesting that Powerline is a one trick pony and that finding some other way to justify their fantasy world will be next to impossible. They may have to resort to an older, less effective technique of blaming everything on either the Liberals or the Democrats. Stay tuned... |
