The Top 10 Conservative Idiots (No. 199)

Hip, Hip… Hypocrisy! Edition
I’ve been pointing out Republican hypocrisy for quite a while now — Democratic Underground covers the recent blatant examples of it. The upshot is that pretty much any conservative who lectures on “family” values is either gay, a wife beater, a child molester or a white collar criminal. Because for them it doesn’t matter what you actually DO, it only matters what lip service you pay.
This week, the White House blames Newsweek for reporting that U. S. soldiers were desecrating the Koran — never mind that they WERE, and that there’s proof, Newsweek shouldn’t say those things out loud because it causes Muslims to hate us. Because of course they don’t hate us for illegally invading their country, or anything.
And of course the guy who threatened to kill Michael Moore — gosh, he didn’t lose his job or anything. But that’s not surprising considering that Republican senators like Cornyn say that it’s okay for people to kill judges, and nothing happens to them.

    I nominate the American people as the number one bunch of idiots. In the face of abundant evidence that they are being lied to and being taken for a ride they have willingly listened to the biggest crock of bull in history and done NOTHING about it.

    Agreed, and in the same token, I ask for special mention of those Americans who promote political laziness and/or attempt to curb real activism.
